Vincent Shoes Going out of Business Sale 60% Off

 A bittersweet ending to Vincent Shoes.   I received this email this morning:

 Dear friend of Vincent ~

We are sorry to let you know that after close to five exciting years and the pleasure of getting to know you and the many other fans of Vincent’s fun and fashionable kids’ kicks, we’re hanging it up.

We sure tried to avoid this fate but after fighting through the Great Recession for the past three years and in the process losing many of our beloved Vincent retailers who couldn’t ride out the financial storm, we’ve run out of that awesome bounce in our step we so much cherished.

But we’re all about trying to make lemonade out of lemons and want to go out with a bang, rewarding you and our other awesome fans!

From now and through this Sunday, April 10, 20111, take 60% off on the below awesome styles before they are completely gone (and we really mean GONE)!

Simply enter code THANK-U! during checkout to receive the 60% off.






I can vouch with Vincent's shoes being the best. So sad that a retailer who makes such amazing shoes is going out of business.  But lucky for you as now you can score some really awesome shoes at a great price! These are top of the notch and well made. You will not be dissatisfied with your purchase from Vincent's. So hurry on over and buy some shoes today!

"So Long" Preview - Zooey Deschanel sings for Winnie the Pooh



I love that Zoey Deschanel will be singing on the new movie “Winnie the Pooh,” that will be coming to theaters July 15, 2011.

Filmmakers were drawn to Deschanel’s signature style. “She was the perfect choice to do the ‘Winnie the Pooh’ song—a classic theme from the Sherman Brothers,” says director Don Hall. “Her music actually embodies the underlying spirit of the movie. We’re taking something that has vintage roots in the sixties, but spinning it in our own way and updating it. If you listen to Zooey’s music with She & Him—that’s their sound to a tee.”

I can't wait to take my kids to see this movie. It is the first big-screen Pooh adventure in more than 35 years!

Product Review: Skin MD Naturals


Skin MD Naturals
by Julie Kieras



I get dry skin easily, especially on my hands. Winter time doesn’t help. Neither does the fact that I wash my hands a lot because I have a little baby so I want to keep the germs away! However, sometimes I am lax about my skin care because I don’t like many of the lotion products on the market. Either they are too greasy, or leave a sticky residue. Often their scent is overpowering and somewhat sickening. Sometimes they are overly watery and you end up sliming your hands on your clothing trying to get the dampness out.

When I tried Skin MD Naturals Shielding Lotion, I didn’t have any of those problems. The lotion is light in texture and nearly odorless (I had to put my nose right up to my hands and sniff deeply to even detect anything). When I put it on my hands, my skin seemed to drink it up immediately, leaving only soft, supple skin behind – no residue, tackiness, or greasy feeling! Perfect!

Skin MD Naturals is hypo-allergenic, so it won’t further irritate the skin. I liked how the ingredients contain no parabens, fragrances, or dyes. And there are several natural ingredients I recognize like aloe vera, comfrey, chamomile, and yarrow.

There’s lots of other reasons I’m glad I was introduced to Skin MD. For one, after applying the lotion, I didn’t feel the need to reapply fifteen minutes later. The moisturizing effect lasted me pretty much the rest of the day! That’s because Skin MD has humectants that actually keep moisturizing by pulling moisture from the air into the skin! Even if you wash your hands!

Plus, because it’s a shielding lotion, not just a moisturizer, Skin MD Natural bonds with the skin to keep moisture in deep inside your skin tissue layers. Some people even use it to alleviate eczema rashes, which I don’t have so couldn’t try the effect on that particular skin irritation. But I do get really dry skin on my hands and knuckles from cold exposure, and Skin MD Natural took care of that for me! And you don’t need a lot of Skin MD Naturals. Just a squirt about the size of half a dime took care of my hands for the entire day.

Natural ingredients. No harsh chemicals. 12-24 hour moisturizing / shielding effect. All great reasons why I am loving Skin MD Naturals!
