Title: 3-in-1: From Fashion to Laundry {review&giveaway}

 

When it comes to fashion there are few things I love more than versatility. I can justify a purchase quickly if I know it can carry me through several seasons and be styled in more than one way. My latest versatile purchase? A pair of mint skinny jeans. I’ve been wearing them this season with thick navy sweaters and a leopard print scarf over bold patterns. I never dreamed I would love a pair of skinny jeans but I am smitten with this particular pair.

As the days warm and the fashion brightens, I’ll be using this pair of jeans to carry me into spring, as well. Inspired by the 3-in-1 aspect of the Tide Pods, I used the one pair of jeans to create three different looks for spring. I paired the jeans with clothes that would carry over into spring. My first look was a bright coral top with mint skinny jeans and crocheted wedge shoes. The coral and mint combination is a little more daring than my normal style but it just reminds me so much of spring.

I dressed the jeans down for my next look, paired with a chambray shirt and sandals. Such an easy outfit that I can throw on for a day of shopping or running errands, even with a busy toddler.

My third look consisted of a navy and mint top with my favorite pair of peep-toe pumps. Perfect for a girls night out or a date with Allen.

Who doesn’t love a great 3-in-1? I could throw these jeans on for a nice dinner date or for a girls shopping trip. I also adore pieces that are machine washable. Life is busy, I’m chasing a toddler most days and my schedule leaves little time for dropping off clothing at the cleaners and picking it up days later. I love that they can come in handy for so many of life’s special days. Just like my trusted Tide Pods laundry detergent. I can’t help but love a product that keeps my favorite clothes looking new after many washes. Pop in a whole new kind of clean with Tide Pods.

This amazing three-in-one product is perfect for keeping my clothes looking their best. Each pac boasts of a detergent that cleans, brightens, and fights stains. Tide Pods are packaged in individual pacs that make washing clothes a little easier. No messy powders, no sticky liquids, just toss in the pac with your load of laundry and you’re set. Such a practical alternative to washing powders and detergents that require measuring and pouring. Pop this pac into your washing machine to help your clothes stand out. Tide Pods may be small, but they pack a powerful punch. One pac removes more stains than 6 caps of the leading bargain brand. (Based on stain removal performance of one pac of Tide Pods vs. 6 doses of the leading liquid bargain brand base variant in a standard top loading machine.) The pacs take cleaning to the next level, they are the only 3-in-1 chamber on the market, setting the standard for the next generation of detergents. As always, use caution around children and make sure they are stored out of the reach of curious toddler hands.

  2. Love my brown boots. They work great with any outfit!

    Also I’d love to know where your chambray shirt is from!
    Pam recently posted..The not so terrible twosMy Profile

  3. My black ruffle cardigan. It is long enough to wear with leggings, cute enough over a tank and looks chic over a sheath!

  4. I have this bright blue cardigan! I love cardigans, they really do add a punch to any outfit. I use this cardigan when I want to dress up a t-shirt a tad, when I’m going to church and wearing a dress and I need a little extra warmth in the service, or when it’s brisk outside and I’m walking to the downtown district with friends for the night! It’s a perfect winter and springy piece and I wear it basically year round!

  6. I have a black swing cardigan, well, several colors actually, that I can wear with almost anything. I like that I can wear some of my summer pieces on into the winter with the cardigan. I even wear it over a dress to church sometimes to make it more modest!

  7. I have some black leggings that are very versatile. I can wear them with sandals and a sundress for a summer look, with UGG boots and a sweater during the winter, and with sneakers when I exercise.

  8. tweet–https://twitter.com/mami2jcn/status/303900242988892161

  9. I have a dress that I can wear with sandals in summer, with leggins and boots in winter and with jacket and high heels for a night out

  10. I’m not the most fashionble person so my gold flip-flops are probably my most versatile piece. I pretty much were them with almost anything. They aren’t shinny so they dress down pretty easily and since they’re gold, they dress-up a little too. From summer dresses to jeans I <3 them and to think I only bought them cause they were on clearance last Sept. for $1.50, I think that makes them even better :) .

  14. The most versatile item in my closet is a blazer. I love to pair it over dresses in the summer and spring and with pants in the fall and winter! It is one of my favorite pieces!

  15. My tan cardigan can be worn with jeans, dress pants or a skirt and different shoes that coordinate each look.

  17. There is nothing on the planet like the classic white shirt, perfect under suits and classes up your jeans like nobody’s business, works with pants and skirts alike! I really wish there were signs of spring around here, there is snow on the ground!
