My new addiction...

If you follow me on twitter you know I tweet about it, all the time. EBAY. It's truly becoming amazing, and an addiction... not sure if that's a good thing or not.  How many of us, have closets full of clothes and we never wear half of it? I know that for a fact, I do. I know there are so many things that I haven't even touched in like a year so why do I just let it keep sitting there? I know I have way to many things and nowehere to go, so I started trying to sell stuff.
Granted on EBAY, everyone wants things super cheap so you might not make as much as you want but it's super easy and half the times things do sell and I love the fact that i'm getting rid of stuff! And the best part...  I can buy new things that I will ACTUALLY wear! So ladies, if you have tons of clothes, love to shop, and don't wear half your closet, try EBAY. You'd be surprised how much you can get rid of and even make!

Hudson Jeans!

Well I'm not sure about any of you, but I know that I have one of the hardest times shopping for jeans! Maybe it's because I'm not a jeans person but I feel like they never fit right and they always sag in the back too! Well, my most recent jeans purchase was a pair of Hudson Jeans and I LOVE THEM!
I got the Hudson Bootcut Jeans and they are fabulous! They are so soft which is definitely a plus! Mine still sag in the butt a little after wearing but that's normal as they loosen up since when you put them on they normally feel tight, which again, is normal. They fit really nicely though and have become my go to jean I just wish I would have gotten a longer inseam. They are quite pricey though which is a downfall. They range from 150 and up but always check out ebay! That's where I got mine for a fraction of the cost if you don't mind gently used clothing :)
Overall they fit wonderfully, they are super soft and comfortable, and just beautiful on. So if you love designer jeans or want to invest in a nice pair I would definitely try Hudson. They aren't glammed up like Miss Me's though so they are very basic and a wonderful everyday jean!

My favorite apps!

I use and have used lots of apps on my ipod touch and I usually stick to my favorites and I know we all search for the latest and most useful apps so here's my list.

Tango:  It's a video, calling, and texting app that's completely free as long as you both have it downloaded. I have family who uses it talk to family in Mexico because it's all completely free! It's great for long distance relationships or if you're running out of minutes!

Twitter: Well we all know what twitter is so this one is self explanatory!

Facebook: Same as twitter, self explanatory!

Poshmark:  Poshmark is a shopping app where you can buy and sell your gently used or new clothing, accessories, and shoes. It's supposed to be just for women but of course there are some men's things on there too! :) The downfall is they take 20% of whatever you make and shipping is 6.99 on orders below $25.00 and 4.99 on orders above $25.00 . But you can bundle things so you get a discount and you only pay shipping once and some people also trade so you basically just pay for shipping and swap clothes or whatever for an equal value. It's pretty great, and you get some pretty good deals!

iP Free:  This is an app for you ladies! It's a period tracker and I must say it's AMAZING. It shows when you're supposed to be ovulating and when you're expected to start so it's perfect when you're making plans and vacationing. I love it and really is beneficial considering I suck at remembering this on my own.

Viggle:  If you watch a lot of t.v. this is a great app for you! When you're watching current tv or tv shows that have aired during the past week you check in and it finds your tv show and you get points. Once you rack up some points you redeem them for whatever they have available during that time. So basically, you get rewarded for watching tv! How easy is that?

Pink Nation:  A VS app that has games, goodies you can unlock, and special offers for becoming a member! Need I say more?

Ebay & Paypal:  Great for us shopaholics who need to get rid of things.

These are probably my favorites... Granted I have many more that I use but these are my most frequently used! I hope these help you out and maybe you have some new favorites too :)

EBAY!

Ebay.... one of the world's most famous online shopping sites... especially for used items.
But yet I'm having such a hard time selling! I mean i'm listing things that are in really good condition and i'm being reasonable with prices yet I still can't get things to sell! It's so aggravating! I don't know how to get more exposure and of course the three items I have sold they didn't leave feedback!
Does anyone have any tips? I always ship next day unless it's the weekend because the post office closes so early, I charge calculate rates for shipping and normally ship priority mail or first class so it's cheap... anywhere between 3-7 dollars normally depending on the item and I even make the packages cute once shipped! I wrap them before I put them in the box and then tie them with ribbon and include a little note! I wish people did that for me! I mean seriously.. why can't I get things to sell?! Am I doing something wrong? Are there tricks to the trade? PLEASE if you know any share them or tell me what you're doing if you are making sales because i'm not sure what's more annoying... the clutter or the fact that i'm not succeeding!

Coffee Syrups

Coffee syrups have been my new latest craze. I love all the fancy iced coffees and lattes. The problems? Expense and time. I'm always ru...
