If you couldn’t tell by now, I’m a total product junkie. It doesn’t matter what product category… tech, kitchen, make up, shoes, organization, clothing, yard, home; I’m all about testing and trying out new items. And, I love posting about them on Snapchat (username- LaurenGleisberg). If you follow me over there, you know my husband, Anthony loves to give “product reviews” – blunt and honest opinions of various products. I’ve decided to take over on that!
I’ve said it before (and I’m so serious!), if I were to ever begin another blog, I would make it all about various products and reviews. Not only do I love testing things out, but I search high and low for things that not everyone has. However, I’m not the girl who says “I don’t know where it’s from” just so others won’t get the same things. If I love something, you’ll hear about it… a lot lol. And, I’m either a total “saver” or “splurge-er” so it’s either a great deal or so stinkin’ cute, it’s worth the splurge.
I’ve received so many snaps and messages asking where I’ve gotten recent things I’ve posted about on social media, so I thought it would be fun to make it a blog post and provide the exact details…shoppable links, reviews and sizing tips.
SHOES
Mules Heels HERE
I’m normally not like “oh these heels are comfortable” but these seriously are so comfy. The sole has a slight squish in a very comfortable way and I walked all around the hospital at our Newborn Care Class the other night without realizing I was in heels. These fit pretty true to size (I’m an occasional 8.5, normally a 9 and these are a 9)
Mule Sandals HERE
After loving my mule heels so much, I wanted a flat option and nearly died when I saw these in pink and BOWS. A bit more than I like to spend on “sandals” but as I get older, I find my splurge items get worn way more often than the ones I buy just because they’re less expensive. These fit true to size too!
Bow Shoes ($23!) HERE (and in black HERE)
You’ve heard me talk about these lol. Again, true to size. I saw some sizes were running out of stock, so I hope they get more back in. This snap was from my Gestational Diabetes/Glucose test! Personally, I didn’t think the drink was bad… I kept it really cold and just chugged it, so try that out if you have an upcoming one!
CLOTHING
Ruffle Sleeve Top ($10) HERE
I was a little hesitant to order from this website but I’ve seen a few fashion bloggers I follow post about it and they all had positive experiences. I knew not to expect the most amazing quality but I will say I was pleasantly surprised and for $10 I was blown away. I ordered this in a small.

Maternity Jeans HERE (high rise) + HERE (low rise)
Cutest thing ever… my mother in law – who is VERY stylish and beautiful – actually purchased these for herself and did some sewing to make the high waistband just a little bit lower and more comfortable for a non pregnant woman; I think I’m going to have her do the same for me post-baby because I’ve never felt more comfortable in jeans. I know this may come off crazy, but even if you’re not pregnant, try these on lol. I wear an XS and prefer the high rise/over the belly option.
Baby Shower Dress (non-maternity and only $55) HERE
I ordered a size up from my usual to fit the bump lol. I also saw that right now everything is 50% if you use their code GoWild
BABY
Diaper Bag HERE + HERE
Thanks to this community, I was advised by the vast majority to go for a backpack diaper bag. I am a sucker for quilted bags and loved this one. I ordered direct through the company’s website and I got 15% off by giving my email but I actually got a 25% off email today with the code SPICEITUP (this isn’t “my” code – just a general email from the company FYI)
HOME/ORGANIZATION
Drawer Organizers HERE
I was lost with how to organize our little one’s dresser drawers. These made it so easy, and if you’re interested I could vlog how I organized each drawer as I came up with a little “system.”
On the topic of products, you ladies have been seriously requesting COMMUNITY GEAR! I’ve shown lots of sneak peeks on social media but just in case you’ve missed it….
Even though I was never in a sorority, I always loved how they had the cutest shirts for every event. I worked with a company who makes a lot of adorable sorority shirts to create the cutest designs for this community!
Next week, the shirts will be available on a “pre-sale” basis so nothing sells out and everyone can snag what they want. This will mean that at the end of the week, we will put a big order in for the shirts and as soon as I receive them back, they will ship out to you. However, if you want one, be sure to get it next week because after that, they’re gone for good!
I think that does it for this snapchat edition of “Where did you get that?” If I forgot anything that I’ve snapped lately but didn’t yet share the details to, please let me know and I can always add to this list. Also, if there are any types of products you’d like to see more of, let me know as well. I’m thinking of doing a “March Favorites” product post + review with fitness, beauty, kitchen and lifestyle items. Would you like that?! Let me know!
