Maxi Skirt


My girls love to wear dresses but most most of the time they are so active we let them wear leggings, jeans, and shorts so that none of their girly goods are showing. I grew up wearing dresses and skirts most of my life but really enjoy wearing leggings under those things in the cold weather and capris during the summer. My girls are more built like their father and over heat quickly so layering for them isn't a good idea in the summer.

This skirt is quite nice and looks great on my daughter. We received the Turquoise in L for my 12 year old daughter. She can not wait to wear it more often in the spring and summer. Until then she will keep it in her closet and she will mix and match shirts, scarves, etc with it to come up with many different ways to implement it into her wardrobe.

You can find this maxi skirt in three different colors on Amazon.

This beautiful maxi skirt features stretchable waistband. This is an amazing skirt perfect for both day and romantic night life.

Clever Yoga BetterGrip Yoga Mat





My daughter sees me do Yoga and decided she would like to do it as well. She has been using a towel to do hers on but when I was given the opportunity to try out a yoga mat I knew that this would be for her.

She has this out almost every day she really hasn't grown tired of it yet. She watches a few programs on YouTube for kids yoga and really loves it.

They even do a bit of Yoga in her classroom which she was really excited to tell me about. She was super excited when the show she watches liked our tweet about her mat.

This mat comes in several bright colors, colors are true to website pictures, both sides are useable and is perfect for beginner or seasoned Yoga exercise. Great for palates and other floor exercises. I look forward to reviewing more products from this company in the future.



This Yoga Mat can be found on Amazon.



What Clever Yoga has to say about their product.

Are you tired of stinky, slippery and super heavy yoga mat?
Give Eco-friendly Clever Yoga mat a try. You will notice it is super lightweight with perfect cushion and thickness(6mm) which will be easy on your knees and elbows while you practice yoga, pilates or other mat exercises. It is so easy to carry around with less than 2lbs.
Since water-proof surface with closed-cell construction prevents moisture or germs from absorbing into the mat, your mat will not be stinky after your sweaty practice. You can easily wipe it clean with wet soft cloth or hose off the sweat at your wish.
Full Disclosure: Most of our customers use yoga towels when they practice hot yoga and sweat heavily because wet mat will make some squeaky sounds with movements, which is normal for all the mats on the market. The difference is you can just wipe your sweat off during practice if you do not like to have a towel on the top.
Your "Clever Yoga" yoga mat is made from premium 100% Recyclable and ECO friendly TPE material which is UV resistant, odor-less and free from PVC, Phthalates, Silicone, Latex and other toxic materials. You know you are safe to practice on it with a peace of mind.
At Clever Yoga, we want you to be 100% satisfied with our products and service. If you are dissatisfied any time in the future, our special "Namaste" warranty provides you no-questions-asked 100% money-back refund or free replacement. We stand behind our promise.

AleHorn Tankard as seen on Game Of Thrones


Our family is new to watching Game Of Thrones but we are not new to finding neat and unique items to add to our home. We all tend to have the same things but acquiring unique items that not everyone can have exactly the same is a nice addition around our home. 

These Ale Horn Tankards are made from ethically sourced Cow Horn, which means cows are not slaughtered just to get the horn. This is an all natural item and can be used for cold drinks. Since all Cow Horns grow differently with different waves of color and texture it would be almost impossible to have two of the same cups so this is a really nice item to have if you are a collector of Ale Tankards, or even if you want to have one of your very own to enjoy your cold drinks out while watching the latest episode of Game Of Thrones. Sure to be a talk piece when you have friends over.




You can find Ale Horn Tankards like this on AleHorn.

These drinking horns are perfect for enjoying your favorite ale or other beverage.  Each horn tankard is hand made from 100% ethically sourced cow horn.  As unique as the horn itself, there will be no other drinking horn in the world like yours.

  • approx 5″ tall and holds 12+ oz.
    Made from 100% natural horn
    Formed horn handle
    Sealed and suitable for cool liquids
    Actual horn pattern may vary from the unit pictured
    Please rinse your horn before use. Avoid the dishwasher, extreme temperatures and hot liquids.
