Hey gang and happy Monday to y’all! I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I’m enjoying some time back home in Virginia with my parents. Yesterday was my dads birthday, and tomorrow is their anniversary. They got married when they were 18. EIGHTEEN! I can only imagine what size egg I would have laid if my kids said they were getting married at 18? LOL My grandmother actually begged them to wait until my dad turned 18, so they went and got their marriage license on his 18th birthday. #itwasadifferenttime Tomorrow is Tanya’s Amazon link up, and you know I can’t miss out on that, so here’s a round of what I was Amazoning in July.
From time to time I get contacted to try things on Amazon. This was one of those times. I picked this heated eyelash curler, because frankly, I’ve always thought this would be a great idea. Y’all! It really works. This is a fun little gadget that would make a great stocking stuffer, or gift add on for a girlfriend. Put it with your favorite mascara, a face mask and cute little headband to hold her hair back, and you’ve got the perfect gift.
I ordered this bra to go under the tie dye jumpsuit (below). I like the longer length of it, and it’s really nice quality. I’d say it runs TTS, but if you’re between sizes, I’d definitely size up. The sizing is numerical vs. the usual S,M,L and I ordered a 6. (for reference my bra size is 34A)
Y’all know how I feel about tie-dye. #iloveit Look how cute this little ruffle sleeve tie dye top is. I’m mean how could you go wrong? Ruffles AND tie dye. #totalwin The fabric was a huge surprise to me. It’s nice and thick.
Yep. More tie-dye, but if you’re not a fan, it comes in solids and stripes. This one is a great piece for the price too. Super easy to throw on and go.
And one last piece of tie-dye. #imighthaveaproblem If you are looking for comfort, slow your roll. This is it. Wear this around the house or for a night out. Cruise? Yes! Vacation? Yes! Bachelorette party? Yes!
GARDEN KNEELER SEAT || KNEE PAD
These are actually some gardening things my mom got. Their church has some land they let members have small gardens on. She’s always loved gardening, so she and my dad have one. She needed some things to make it a little easier on her knees and to get up and down. She’s had both knees replaced, and said the knee pad really works well for “cushioning” them.
This is something else she wanted. Seems like the older you get, the better the chances you’ll end up taking some kind of medication. She and my dad both have several medicines, and these little organizers work great for making sure the right things are taken at the right time, and not forgotten.
Several other bloggers have jumped on the bandwagon of this visor, so you know I couldn’t be left out. I got the yellow and love it, but I’m really thinking about getting the blue or pink.
Here are a few other Amazon posts if you want more.

Love those tops on you- they are adorable and looks so comfortable at the same time!
Lisa Richardson says
Thanks Holly! I might need a tie-dye intervention. LOL
Kellyann says
That gardening bench/kneeling pad looks so handy! And I am all about a pill organizer to keep my vitamins straight. I adore that tie dye jumpsuit on you. Happy Anniversary to your parents! Mine got married young too – my dad was 19 and my mom was 17 but my dad was headed off to the Navy. I cannot imagine marrying the boyfriend I had at that age – ha!!!
xo,
Kellyann
Lisa Richardson says
Oh I know…I can’t even imagine being married so young. They were babies. XO
Living on Cloud Nine says
Yep, we the visor girls! That tie dye jumpsuit is still one of my favorite things on you. I wanted that tie dye tee with the ruffle pocket but the date was so far out to receive. I need to look again because it’s soooo CUTE ON YOU! Happy Anniversary to your parents and happy birthday to your daddy! XO
Lisa Richardson says
It’s so crazy how the ship dates differ and how things go on and off of Prime. I’m almost positive when I bought it, it was Prime. XOXO
Jill says
Love all of your tie dye! That jumpsuit is the best! I always heat my eyelash curler with a blow dryer so I definitely need to check this heated one out!

Lisa Richardson says
Yes, try one of these gadgets. I’ve tried heating my curler before too and nearly burned my eye lid. OUCH! XO
Laura says
I just love those visors you and Andrea have been wearing! I hope you are having a wonderful time with your parents!

Heather Bramlett says
Love all the tie dye!
Lisa Richardson says
I might need some sort of support group. LOL
Tanya @Other Side of the Road says
That is just crazy about getting married at 18. Times were definitely different. My mom was married and had me by the time she was 21, and the same with her mother (my grandmother) as well! I love the pill holder…very modern looking. Thanks so much for linking up with Prime Purchases!
Lisa Richardson says
Love these Amazon posts, Tanya!!! Thanks for the linkup….I think it’s the only linkup I go through and read every one. LOL Shhhh, don’t tell?

Isn’t it just crazy to think about being married that long? I think this was their 56th. I’ve been married almost 28 and that blows my mind. XOXO
Holly Breton says
Love all of the tie dye on you- I know why you love it- it works! Happy Anniversary to your precious parents too 🙂
Lisa Richardson says
Thanks so much Holly! They had a fantastic anniversary. We got to FaceTime and see all 3 of my brothers kids be baptized. Super special. XOXO
