Product Reviews: Bandelettes

logo1
If you’re like me, you avoid wearing skirts because your legs will rub together and it bothers you.  Or, you wear a small pair of shorts underneath the skirt to stop it from happening. I recently got to try out Bandelettes – Anti Chaffing Elastic thigh bands and I am thinking that you might be seeing me in skirts a bit more often now.  These things are amazing and they look a heck of a lot better than a pair of shorts if they happen to be seen.  The bands are 6″ in length and are made of delicate lace with non slip silicone straps to keep them in place and protect your inner thighs from rubbing.
Bandelettes lightly wrap around your thighs a create a barrier between them, providing full comfort and decorating legs at the same time.  You can wear them even if you are lucky enough to have legs that don’t rub together – just to add a little bit more sexy to that perfect outfit.
They are comfortable to wear – the lace is not itchy or bothersome at all and the silicone stripes really help them stay in place. I tried all sorts of movements and jumping and they didn’t fall down.
To get your size, simply measure while standing around your thigh.  If you don’t have a ruler that will go around your thigh, use a string and measure that against the ruler!
Bandelettes come in 6 sizes and different colors.
Can be purchased at http://www.bandelettes.com/ for $14.99 and worldwide shipping is available.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Book Review: No Mistakes Resumes

resumesWhile I’m not looking for a job at the moment, it never hurts to have an up to date resume on hand.  Especially at my job – sometimes we are asked to hand it off to the boss to see about us moving to a different position within one of our customers groups.  I’m always a bit nervous that my resume is not the best it can be or what the person looking at it is going to be looking for.  What do I put on it? What do I keep off?  Also included in the book are some tips on cover letters which is also a pretty difficult concept for me to grasp – and I guess I am not alone since there are books written on how to do it.

The book is under 100 pages – your resume should be short and to the point and so is this book! It has a lot of great examples of what doesn’t work on resumes and how to re-word it so that it will work. There’s a lot of great tips and I am going to be working on my resume a bit to get it up to par after reading this book.

This is also the first book in a “No Mistakes” Career Series – the next one will be about the interview process – that you’ll no doubt get after making a kick ass resume!

I received a free e-copy of this book in order to  write this review. I was not otherwise compensated.
