Some Stellar Subscriptions

At this point in time, there is a ridiculous number of subscriptions available. I'm not just talking magazine or email subscriptions; I'm talking full shopping-spree hauls being shipped right to your door. I currently partake in one called Loot Crate, an awesome service that sends out boxes full of geeky goodies for about $20 each month. You can do month to month, 3 months or 6 months at a time. We currently do the month to month, but I can see making the switch to the 6 month plan. It's stinkin sweet. Here's August's "Heroes" crate. That Groot Pop! vinyl figure glows in the dark, just fyi!



So I did some research and if you're excited to try new things like I am, then hopefully you'll get just as much a kick out of these.




Monthly Box Subscriptions:

1. Bark Box

2. Nature Box


3. Birch Box


4. The Cravory


5. Club W


6. Escape Monthly


7. Must Have


8. Prize Candle


9. Le-Tote


10. Shoe Dazzle



I essentially compiled this list from several searches. You could pretty much google any type of box subscription and chances are it exists. 


Go, explore! Have fun! Try something awesome! 


Bark box and Birch Box are definitely the next ones I'm checking into. I could see getting people these for Christmas. How cute would that be?


Tell me your favorites, if you are subscribed to any monthly box deliveries, especially if they're not on this list. Or if you haven't found a good one yet, I hope this has helped you. There's so much to try out there!


Leave your comments below, I'd love to hear your thoughts.


Thanks and take care

Real Talk

Today's post is gonna be a little different. Despite my love for dressing up, 1. I've been off from work most of the week and 2. it's been a pretty crappy week. I won't get into it or anything, don't worry, but it's been hard just to get out of the house, let alone get all dolled up.

So of course this means ridiculous amounts of time being spent on the internet...

Which means buying things I don't need...

Like this:

My handsome little man, Ajax 


Spider Dog Costume




















I normally don't condone dressing up animals, but this is freakin hilarious, I don't care who you are.

Cuteness aside, take a look at the home site. It's the Animal Rescue - Pet Shop, one of the several pages featured by CharityUSA, who own and operate GreaterGood stores. They've donated over $30 million to charities all over the world, as well as food, books, therapy and research.

It's actually pretty cool how they have it set up. With every purchase through any of the stores (the stores are separated by cause), the funds go towards that target charity group. They currently support: World Hunger | Breast Cancer | Veterans | Autism | Alzheimer's | Diabetes | Literacy | Rainforest.
So since I bought the dog costume through the Animal Rescue store, my purchase funded 14 bowls of food for shelter animals. They even have a button that can be clicked every day that serves as free donations as well. Free in every sense of the word. You click, and they donate. It's awesome.

Not to say this should be the only way anyone gets involved, solely by buying and clicking on things through this site. I believe in hard work and compassion, and have volunteered at a few shelters, for homeless people and animals alike. My boyfriend and I even intend to help out at a local wolf sanctuary next month (I am so freakin excited for that, by the way. Brace yourselves for many many pictures).

Learn how you can get involved to help your community, the world, and even yourself. You feel awesome afterwards, I promise :)

Thanks and take care
