Nanny to Mommy

Have you ever wanted to start streaming a show, but you don't want to do it alone? I have. My husband and I have different tastes in what we watch for sure. But everyone once in a while I try to convince him to watch a new show with me. If I can convince his friends that it is a show worth streaming, then I'm golden. So the struggle is real.

We have been back to school for a month now. It has been a little easier for me to get back into our back-to-school routine this year then it has been in years past. I think it is because I have a few tips that I started following this year and it really helped us get back into the swing of things.

I love subscription boxes. I love being surprised with what is inside each month. Cate & Chloe is a subscription box that I have been truly enjoying because everything has been something I would personally wear, but I really love getting a little box that spoils me each month. I think sometimes as moms while we are busying taking care of everyone else, we forget to treat ourselves. I am excited to share Cate & Chloe's September Shades of Gray VIP Box to review.

To get you started with a subscription, you can select The Starter which is one Piece of new fashionable jewelry per month plus a free gift, or you can choose Full VIP Status where you get 3 pieces per month plus a free gift, always free shipping. Once you select your box, then you choose what type of jewelry you would like to receive (they no longer offer personalized jewelry boxes), but you can pretty much pick your style. Let me explain: They have the "Trend Setter" which can includes eye catching statement pieces & boho chic designs, "Modern Classics" for those who like to accessorize their life with beautiful elegant classic jewelry designs for day or night from the office to the red carpet, and then they have "Mix It Up" which includes a variety from both trendy and classic.

I chose the "Mix It Up". And here is what was in my box:

This year will mark my husband's and mine's 13 year going to Dragon*Con together. What is Dragon*Con? Only the Southeast's largest sci-fi, fantasy, and gaming convention. Yup, we have been going every year for over a decade and this will make my daughter's 5th and my son's 4th. We love the parade and the different panels. But I think my favorite part is dressing up and looking at everyone else's costumes as well. This year our costumes were sponsored by Oriental Trading.
