~Review~ Fitglam 50s Vintage Swimsuits

~I received this free for my honest and unbiased review. If you click on a link on this page Primitive Gypsy will make a small commission.~

I just love these new retro looking swimsuits. I have tried a few. Those high waisted one's are adorable in the photos but on make you look like you're smuggling a whale. So I knew this style would look better. I wanted the black with the adorable red cherry pattern on it.

I am really enjoying this swim suit. I ordered the 14 because I am in a 12/14 and it was slightly loose but super comfy and not bad looking. It looked so much nicer than the two-piece versions. It was slightly big in the chest but you can't tell because of all the cushy padding. It ties behind the neck and never has come undone even floating. The ruffle area was also slightly loose but not enough to matter. I would say if your in a 12 go a size down maybe as long as your chest isn't huge. The suit itself is soft and stretchy. It's easy to put on and just adorable. They also have other patterns and colors. I would buy another one because I adore this one.

You can order your own Fitglam Swimsuit on Amazon. The prices are super reasonable. I would most certainly recommend it.

~ Review ~ Wolfyok Blue Sleeping Bag

If you click on the links in the post and make any purchase Primitive Gypsy will receive a small commission. I did receive this item free for an honest and unbiased review.

This is the coolest sleeping bag. It's for sure the most compact sleeping bag I have ever seen and I have owned a lot of sleeping bags over the years. My family goes camping all year long, no matter the weather. This bag is perfect for sleeping outside in the summer because it's meant for warm weather camping. It would be an ideal companion in your camper or motorhome.

This sleeping bag is very thin and rolls up so small. It's a great one if your hiking and to have around just in case. It weighs nothing and can be attached to your belt, backpack, etc. This bag is perfect for kids, perfect for the hammock, mat, cot, or mattress camping. It's thin shell and very little padding makes it easy to carry and store, but also makes it not ideal for ground camping. Unless maybe it's a young child. One thing I do love is that unlike the mummy style of sleeping bag you can unzip this one fully and use it as a cover for two when it's hot, or just breezy. It could also be used as a picnic style blanket, shaken out and quickly folded back up.

I also love that because it is so thin and lightweight it can be machine washed. Very few sleeping bags can live up to that without taking them to the cleaners or a large capacity washer. It would be awesome for a bicyclist, hiker, or quick camping trip! You can get one of your own on Amazon HERE. By the way, did I mention the wonderful low price?

~ Review ~ Rain Chain Great Gift for Mother's Day!

I received this free for my honest and unbiased review. If you purchase from the link below my friend at MommaBearsBook Blog will receive a small commission. I will receive nothing.

Ok, how can you not love these? This is just a lovely example of a rain chain. Never heard of them? Well you have no idea what you're missing. This is a simple concept. Replace your gutter downspout with the rain chain. It's simple to install. Then wait for the rain. When it rains this makes such a lovely tinkling sound when the rain hits it and goes down the chain. It rained right after we put it up and I just love listening and watching it. I can sit on my big wrap around porch and see it.

This rain chain is nice and long, and extends from the gutter almost to the ground. Mine is maybe a foot away from it. I have mine hanging over a flower bed but it works really well over a barrel or something you may use to collect rainwater. Then you can water your garden, flowers and pets. The rain chain is nice and light in weight making it not an issue to hang from your gutter. It will not cause your gutter to fall or sag. It sways in the wind and doesn't pull at your gutter.

This rain chain comes with an easy to install v section for your gutter. My husband had it up and ready to go before I had even asked. I had been wanting one of these for ages, admiring them at friends homes. I am just as thrilled with it as I thought I would be. I adore the beautiful copper patina that in no way detracts from the house or yard. It's just a lovely addition to our front porch. I will most certainly be buying more, including one for my mom for Mother's Day as she has been eyeing mine.

You can buy one of your own HERE on Amazon.

~Review~ EGOZ Almond and Peanut Sleeping Bags

I received these items free for my honest and unbiased review.

I love these sleeping bag for summer camping trips, float trips, and sleepovers. It's well over six feet long, so good for almost any size person. I really like the top of the bag as it keep your pillow from slipping off onto the cold ground. I would not use this bag below around 45 degrees but for summer camping in normal weather it's perfect. I love the color and how lightweight it is to use. It only weighs around three pounds total. It comes with a storage bag and was pretty easy to roll and replace into that bag. These are perfect kid sleeping bags, in my opinion. They make great boy scout bags, for campouts and sleepovers. This is what we use them for. My son adores the blue color, and is glad it was not plain. I think this bag with normal light use will last you quite a few years. They are not really the kind of bag you can open and double but that is just fine, most bags are like that. I have one for each of my older boys. I would buy them for them again. The blue one is Peanut By EGOZ and the black one is Almond by EGOZ . The blue is a normal shaped bag, and the black one is a mummy style.

Pros-
Lightweight Fun Colors
Carrying Bag
Great for Kids

Cons-
Not for Cold Weather
Medium Quality

You can buy both on Amazon.

~Review~ 3-Piece Ergonomic Garden Hand Tool Set

~I received this for my honest review, all opinions are 100% my own.~

I love to garden. Every year my husband and I plant a big garden for food and just for pretty. The 3-Piece Ergonomic Garden Hand Tool Set I received is one of the nicest sets I have owned. They are a light weight construction makes them easy to use all day. They are ergonomic so for my pain these are wonderful to use. They have been very durable and has made it possible for me to do even big jobs in my yard. The bright handles make them easy to find in the yard when you have walked away.I always lose tools in the yard.

All three tools in this 3-Piece Garden Tool set have heads made from high-quality, lightweight and extremely strong polished aluminum, with tough handles covered by a soft rubber palm grip.

The key benefits of these gardening tools are:
Durable enough for a lifetime of usage. They are rust-resistant, easy to clean and very strong.
Reduced hand and arm fatigue. Our designers have paid careful attention to the ergonomics of the handles. They do not have ribbed sides like grips on other tools. Instead, the handle underside is gently molded to fit the natural position of your fingers when gripping the tools. This means that whilst the handles are large, they still fit snugly in smaller hands. The top side of the handle has a thumb depression enabling additional downward force without extra strain on your hands and forearms.
Easy to spot in your garden. The bright colored handle design ensures they are easy to spot, even from a distance.

The Hand Tool Set Includes:
Garden Trowel: (32cm,209 grams)
Transplanter: (32.5, 215 grams)
Cultivator: (32cm, 236 grams)

You can buy your own 3-Piece Ergonomic Garden Hand Tool Set on Amazon.
