2019 North American International Auto Show with A Girls Guide to Cars

Tweet

This post is sponsored by A Girl's Guide to Cars and I was compensated to write. However, all opinions in this post are 100% my own.

I'm so glad to be a part of the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) again this year, 2019. I'm always so excited to cover this event. Not only am I a car lover, but I love getting together with some of my favorite blogger friends and love seeing women covering this particular event. In an industry mostly targeted to men, and men are usually the enthusiasts, I'm so glad to be with a bunch of wonderful women that are as passionate about cars as I am.

This post is about some of my favorite things I saw and discovered at the NAIAS. Some new vehicles, some new technology and some auto news is at the end as well. 

Speaking of the end, stick around for a surprise at the VERY end of this article ;)

CADILLAC XT6

This is right between the newer XT5 and the Escalade. It's a 3 row vehicle that is AWD so can have a smaller impact. It's basically an Escalade on a smaller chassis. 

So if you need more seating than the XT5, but a better price than the Escalade, the XT6 is where it's at.

Audrey's Bear Swaddle Review

Tweet

I received a sample from Audrey's Bear for the sole purpose of this review

Written by my co-writer, Cheyenne!

Babies need to be swaddled from birth, it's all they've known being in the womb and it helps them feel comfortable and safe. Swaddling is very important for babies to help them regulate their temperature and feel safe. It also allows them better sleep so they don't flail as much. And they experience less anxiety being swaddled. Audrey's Bear is doing great things and offering an array of wonderful swaddle blankets.

The star ingredient in these products is going to help reduce stress and relieve pain. These are just a few of the different benefits, but CBD/Hemp can also help with skincare. Getting hemp creams and hemp moisturizers are a great way to incorporate them into your daily life.
