(Fun)ctional Bowling Shoes from BowlingShoes.com
When I had the opportunity to review bowling paraphernalia, I knew just the person to ask to guest post… my mom2 in Iowa! She is an avid bowler, amazing writer with a no non-sense kind of honesty. Here is her post, thanks for sharing!
Hello! My name is Pamela Anderson and the beautiful and talented Miss Yvonne Kai is my daughter-in-love. I may be dropping in from the Midwest occasionally to share product information with other readers of Hey Do You. After all, who doesn’t love a deal?
Bowling is a sport enjoyed by many, whether as a family activity, fundraising event, birthday party, or for the serious (or not-so!) bowlers, the league. Bowlers with a modicum of experience realize early on that utilizing customized equipment improves one’s game. Of course, as in any sport, the required equipment—bowling shoes, bowling ball, bowling bag and a myriad of accessories—can be quite costly. However, I recently became acquainted with BowlingShoes.com, a site that offers quality brands for beginners to bowling aficionados at prices so great that I had to spread the news!
For many years, bowling shoes all sported the classic rental look. Even if you’ve never visited a bowling alley, you undoubtedly know the iconic style!
Over the years, bowling fashion evolved from function. At BowlingShoes.com, for example, one can browse well-known brands in every style and color imaginable. Featured brands include Dexter, Elite, Brunswick, Etonic, 3G, Storm and more.
I recently put the Elite Ariel bowling shoe to the test. The Ariel is a sporty black with hot pink detailing. I love that the shoes come with both black and pink laces that I can switch up to suit my mood or if I just want a pop of color. The soles on the Elite Ariel are UNI Soles, used by both right- and left-handed bowlers, which is my personal preference. While the shoe is lightweight, I was pleasantly surprised with the solid structure of the shoe. The uppers snugly support my ankle and foot, but the bed is unbelievably cushioned and the tongue is a pillow with just the right pouf!
It is evident on sight that Elite uses quality materials. This is important because bowlers often purchase shoes with the intent to use them for several years. Elite goes a step farther and carries a two-year warranty for every shoe.
I’m very happy to say that the Elite Ariel bowling shoe surpassed my expectations, as did the service from BowlingShoes.com! With deeply discounted pricing, you really can have both quality and (fun)ctional shoes!
High Five, BowlingShoes.com!
psst…get your roll on at BowlingShoes.com and purchase all of your bowling equipment and accessories at prices that can’t be beat!

Date Night Approved: @MaggyLondon Daisy Organza Dress
In the midst of my move, I found my Maggy London Daisy Organza Dress! I was suppose to wear this dress on New Year’s Eve for a party but my plans fell through. I even asked my Instagram friends which one I should pick… Everyone said RED.
Then when I went to Toronto for my nephew’s baptism, I wanted to wear it but it was -40 so no chance at all. Finally TONIGHT was the night! I was so happy to finally get a chance to wear it yay! Tonight we went to Cafetasia for dinner to celebrate for our move in to the city 89 Bleecker. Date night appropriate? Yes I think so!
Tai took some great pics for me – see my lovely dress below.
With a red dress, you can do nude lips or the very trendy orange lips like me! This is the Kat Von D in A-Go-Go
Some details about this dress… (and a video too on Amazon!)
- 100% Polyester
- Dry Clean Only
- Round neckline with keyhole
- Back keyhole and zipper
- Tonal belt
- Maggy London’s organza sheath dress blossoms thanks to floral lace fabrication with sheer shoulder detail.
- Made in China
To complete this outfit for a more causal look, I paired my Maggy London with this classic Levi’s dark denim coat. My red Sam Edelman shoes set off this pencil skirt styled dress and showed off the little slit in the back
I love the delicate daisy pattern and the sheer high neckline for a sophisticated and flirty look. Seems like I am not the only one who loves this dress, the Daisy Organza Dress was on the Today Show.
I will definitely be a repeat offender and wear this again for Chinese New Year in two weeks!

Beauty Look inspired by Baby Skin by @Maybelline and @MaybellineCAN
It is no secret that I am huge fan of Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse so I was more than excited to try out the all new Maybelline New York Dream Wonder Powder. It comes in a variety of 16 shades and a round large size compact.
I spent time with my new nephew Tate and I want his BABY SKIN! Baby skin is soft, supple and without pores and blemish.
You can get this look by using the Maybelline NY Baby Skin primer and the Dream Wonder Powder.
Just take your kabuki brush and do a once over to set your foundation. It will ensure zero shine in your T-zone area for photos. My mom was tried both of the products and were happy with the quality of the products and the look in pictures too. We all wanted that ‘baby look’
Baby Skin is a primer and can be worn under make up for a pore less smooth look! I love the silicon makeup case too, what a nice ‘touch’.
100% Smooth-Buffed Perfect!
Experience our first smooth-whipped pressed powder.Why You’ll Love It
Powder is smooth-whipped with 60% less talc*, so there’s no chalky dust to cling to flaws. Our powder glides on smoothly for smooth-buffed perfection.
*Versus Maybelline FitMe Powder.
For Best Results
Apply to forehead, nose, cheeks and chin with the provided sponge applicator. Use gentle strokes to build coverage and achieve a natural makeup look.

World class perfumers will get you obsessed with @FragranceRepub’s range of fragrances
If you’re a bit obsessed (see: tooootally obsessed) with fragrances, you’ll love this really cool club called The Fragrance Republ!c.
Here’s the deal: Working much like Birchbox, Fragrance Republ!c gives exclusive access to original fine fragrances that are all created by world-class perfumers. And what I love about this club is that FR is totally free of corporate influence and is modeled on principles of artistic freedom, democratic vote and active participation.
Each month, members receive an exclusive fragrance by mail and you can even check out the perfumer on Fragrance Republ!c’s site. This month’s perfumer is Amélie Bourgeois. She’s created a perfume with notes of sweet orange, magnolia, jasmine, sesame, white musks, and tonka bean.
There’s just something special about knowing who’s behind a fragrance and then hearing about why they created the perfume. With ordinary fragrances, we don’t get to do that, but with FR, you feel more connected with your fragrance by knowing what or who inspired it.
Prices start at just $45 for 0.5 oz. If you’re adventurous with fragrances (nobody likes change but I dare you to mix it up this year!), Fragrance Republ!c is the ideal way to get started on your own collection of unique fragrance blends.

Hot Cocktails from @Rekorderlig Cider
After a full week of cold and polar vortex, what can be more appropriate than a hot winter cocktail recipe?
Check this out – the Rekorderlig Pear, a fourth generation Swedish cider that just launched stateside. It’s delightfully crisp and balanced on its own when served chilled, but the Winter Fire cocktail is a careful blend that yields a perfectly complex hot drink. If you are not familiar with ciders like Strongbow or cider drinks, you are really in for a treat! They can also be poured with Guinness to create a cool Black and Tan drink.
