Are you looking for some hot new jewelry or a Mother’s Day gift? Well look no further, here is

Bcharmed carries necklaces, earrings, bracelets, charms, monogram and stamped metal pieces. Super cute and versatile. Not to mention that a lot of these items can be interchanged with other pieces- they have small clasps that you can add to your bracelets or necklaces to make a custom piece!

I love finding jewelry that is not too big, looks gorgeous, looks expensive but isn’t going to break the bank and is worth the investment. With most pieces under $30, Bcharmed jewelry is hardly an investment, more like a company after my own heart!!

I had the opportunity to wear this Glitz & Glam 36″ Black & Cream Necklace (just $29) and have to say I love it! This necklace is 36″ long, has black & cream pearls and crystal clusters. It shimmers so beautifully in the light and looks great on! The catalog does not do it justice! It is larger than it looks in the catalog, but not too bulky! I have worn it 4 times with 4 different outfits all ranging from casual, dressy, t-shirt with jeans and shorts! It just about goes with everything! This is a must have piece for any mom’s collection!

We have 3 girls who all love hair accessories and making their hair look cool! And with summer coming, I am always looking for new ways to keep all of our hair up and out of our face and off our necks to keep us cool during the warmer months! So getting a chance to try out a whole box full of Goody Hair Accessories, was the highlight of my day!

Our oldest daughter is in volleyball and soccer right now and with most days heading straight to practice from school, she needs something that is quick and easy to help her keep her hair up and out of her face while she is playing! These Black Headwraps with slide proof strips on the backside, keep her hair back and out of her face, as well as keeps a tight hold onto her head. Many headwraps that she has used seem to slip off her head over and over again, making her spend most of practice fixing her hair. While they were not perfect, she did only have to replace it 2 times during a 1.5 hour soccer practice, so she was happy for less distractions!!

My favorite pieces, as well as our middle daughter’s,  are these Stretchy Headwraps and the Crochet Headwraps! They just about match everything and anything that could possibly be in your wardrobe. They slide right on and aren’t too tight like some other brands that we have used in the past. Very comfortable and one of my new favorite hair accessories!
Our youngest daughter has worn these pretty Floral Snap Clip or these Luxe Shell Clips almost every day to school since we got them! She says it make her look “in style”!! She have pretty thin hair and a lot of clips that she tends to like fall out pretty easy. This one has lasted each day at pre-school (2.5 hours) and most of the way home, that’s when she normally says “I need to let my hair down, is that ok?” She is our diva!!!

 

Maximize your hold with great items like the Twisty Comb, Spin Pins, Mini Clips and Contour Barrettes! When I use to work in a office, I would find just about anything to stick in my hair to keep it up if I could not find a hair band. I have used pencils, pens, paper clips and even those black snap clip things just to keep my hair up! Goody has some super cute pieces that will keep me from ever sticking a pen in my hair again.

These Spin Pins kind of threw me off for a minute, thinking that they would either be hard to use or hard to get out! But I was completely wrong! They slide right in, just push in a little in your hair and turn several times until the pin is through the other side. Looks super cute, stay hidden in my hair and holds my hair very well! I love those banana clips but usually by the end of the day my head hurts from the prongs. These Spin Pins felt like they weren’t even in my hair and no more pain from banana clips! These Spin Pins are Goody’s #1 seller and why wouldn’t they be, these 2 little pins take the place of 300 bobby pins!! What a great item this would be for a bride to be!!

Gelous Cushion Brush is something that I really never thought I needed, until I tried it! The handle of this hair brush was so nice and felt great while brushing our hair! Not only does it feel nice, but the bristles are ion-infused! So what does that mean- this will help alleviate static! We all need that during the winter months!

Now for the best part, you can win a box filled with these great Goody Hair Accessories!
