I totally admit that I'm drawn to color like a butterfly to flowers.  While many of my favorite outfits are in the neutral range or classic black and white, I accessorize with many different splashes of color.  You may see me wearing deep purple shoes, a fun torquoise bracelet, a bright yellow statement necklace, or even cute metallic blue nail polish. There's got to be a little bit of color to every outfit to make it fun.

If you love splashes of color in your wardrobe or in your life, whether it's a gorgeous orange sunrise or bold colorful nails, you will want to enter the Splash of Color Sweepstakes with Croc.   Participants in the Splash of Color sweepstakes have a chance to win a $3,000 shopping spree for entering. That would certainly buy a lot of splashes of color to add to my wardrobe. I'm already mentally making my shopping list as I type this post.

It is very easy to enter the Splash of Color Crocs Instagram Sweepstakes.  All you need to do is use the Instagramm app on your smartphone.  Just capture three "Splashes of Color" that you love in your life and then upload them to your Instagram account.  Make sure that you use the hashtag #splashofcolor with each of your photos to have them count in the sweepstakes.  Then once that is done, just connect your Instagram account through the sweepstakes page and enter to win!

You can see my photos for the sweepstakes in the post. You had to know that at least one of them was going to be nail polish! So, head over right now to the Crocs Instagram Sweepstakes and enter. You can enter up to three photos each day. You don't have a lot of time.  The sweepstakes ends on May 20th. Leave a comment here and let me know why you want to win.

Aveeno Positively Nourishing Comforting Whipped Soufflé Review

Disclaimer: Product provided for review. Post may contain affiliate links. All opinions are mine and mine alone.

Summer weather has arrived in Vermont and I'm finally putting away the heavy sweaters and bringing out the short sleeve shirts. After months of covering up in warm clothes, my skin needs some serious attention and hydration.

Aveeno Positively Nourishing Comforting Whipped Soufflé


Review:  Aveeno Positively Nourishing Comforting Whipped Soufflé contains Aveeno Active Naturals Colloidal Oatmeal, a natural ingredient most recommended by dermatologists to maintain healthy looking skin. The souffle smooths on easily and was absorbed quickly into my skin. It left behind no greasy or sticky feeling at all. When my skin felt tight or slightly irritated, this soothed the sensitivity and left my skin feeling soft and smooth.  You only need a little bit to feel the difference in your skin.

The cocoa and shea butter have a very nice, pleasant scent.  It's not overpowering or overly noticeable once the souffle is absorbed into your skin.  That's perfect for those that want to use a perfume and not have the souffle get in the way of their scent choice.

Non Toxic Nail Polish #sponsored

This post on non toxic nail polish has been made possible by a review product. This post may contain affilaite links. All opinions are mine and mine alone.

I love doing my nails but I worry about the chemicals that are in some nail polishes.  Buying non toxic nail polish means that I can feel better about doing my nails.  I know that Zoya nail polish does not contain the 5 worst ingredients: formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, toluene, dibutyl phthalate, or camphor. They are also vegan friendly for anyone who is trying to follow a vegan lifestyle.

Non toxic nail polish - Zoya Tinsley ZP671

I love the way Tinsley (check it out on Amazon) came out!  The color reminds me of one of the roses in our backyard that blooms in the summer time.  Absolutely beautiful color.
