Giveaway : Jennifer Ouellette : Headbands, Hats & Other Hair Accessories
Jennifer Ouellette may not exactly be a household name, but chances are you've seen her amazing work before. As a designer of high quality headbands, hats and other hair accessories, Ouellette's pieces have been featured in high profile television programs, magazine photoshoots and on the red carpet.
Here are just a few of the renowned fashionistas who have been spotted in Jennifer Ouellette:
From the Jennifer Ouellette website:
"Experiences gained in New York City and abroad led to the development of a unique headband design and construction technique, greatly increasing comfort and value. She was granted a US patent for her innovations in 1999. Independent since 1996, Jennifer Ouellette, Inc. delivers millinery and accessories to women who demand more than shallow trends and throw away styles. Interpreted for the urban woman of today, she presents designs of traditional quality with a singular attention to detail. Always fashionable, drawn from science and nature, timely and timeless, superior designs from Jennifer Ouellette."
Jennifer Ouellette recently sent me a Side Bow on Wide Grosgrain Headband in black ($50). The headband is gorgeously constructed with a lightweight grosgrain and a thin, but extremely sturdy metal frame (the frame itself is covered by the fabric). The bow detail is offset to one side and is absolutely adorable- feminine but not too over the top girly and great for a woman (or even a kid) of any age!
top view (sorry, I'm camera shy - eek!)
The headband not only looks great, but is extremely comfortable as well. No pinching at the backs of the ears, no tightness, no flimsy plastic headband that will snap in half. The headband stays firmly in position without any looseness or sliding. With the extreme comfort and good looks I was expecting the headband to suffer somewhere, however, not the case at all. I feel like Lucy Ricardo saying this but... this headband is a real dream!

This particular headband works extremely well with just about any hairstyle. It looks great with hair down or tied back in a loose pony tail, in a low bun or high topknot.. endless possibilities. I was super impressed with just how versatile this headband is!
looks great with a pony tail or updo too!

Giveaway : Potato Flyers + Pirates Booty from Pirate Brands
Potato Flyers are the newest products in Pirate Brand's selection of yummy snacks. Although baked, these aren't your standard baked potato chips. Potato Flyers are baked with pressure and have a thick, super crispy texture with little "air pockets". The texture is awesome and a great switch up from standard potato chips. They are also lower in fat and calories than the leading potato chip brand (Potato Flyers have only 120 calories per 1 oz. serving). These snacks are also absolutely wonderful for entertaining!Potato Flyers are available in Original, Homestyle Barbeque, Sour Cream and Onion & Sea Salt and Vinegar. The Original and Homestyle Barbeque flavors are dairy free / vegan friendly and all varieties are gluten free (they are not, however, produced in a certified gluten and wheat-free facility). I personally sampled the Original and Homestyle Barbeque and they both had a great flavor with a lovely, unique crunch.
Potato Flyers are available in 1.5 oz & 5.5 oz. bags with a suggested retail price of $1.49 and $2.99 respectively. Potato Flyers can be purchased online on the Pirate Brands website and at select retailers throughout the US.
