I Dream of Johnny Review



Have you ever heard of i dream of Johnny if not you are missing out they have some of the cutest items ever. You can have tees, bibs, onesies, and tanks personalized. What we choose for Jayce was the Harvard Plaid that was customized especially for him. We absolutely love this top it's great we have also washed this and still looks like new.



This one was personalized with his name on it Jayce. Can you tell he loves the shirt?? This has to be one of my favorite shirts he has besides his other one from i dream of Johnny!! The tie is actually hand stitched to the shirt and won't come off. I love personalized clothing and i dream of Johnny is the place to go. 

The next shirt we were able to review was the Blue Gray Striped Tie this one is really nice too. The material is so soft and I love the blue color it goes great with his eyes!!


This one just like the other is hand stitched but this one was actually made with his initial. I like it. It's different then the Harvard Plaid so we don't have both shirts with his name it just adds something different and I love just having the J on the shirt also.


Doesn't it look like he loves the shirts. I know I do.

A little about i dream of Johnny:

Johnny moved to Los Angeles after his college years to see what the buzz was about in California. The first few years he studied acting and was involved in the acting circuit which entailed a few gigs, including commercials and the famous "waiter" role.
While doing photography as a hobby ever since he was a child, he started photographing his fellow actors and shooting their headshots.
While this passion still exists for him, he has now developed his photo talents into the fashion world. With his creativity he uses his photo work and realism to create a patchwork for his line of clothing. Photography and fashion play a dual role for this designer. His designs seem to bring a new flair to children's and baby wear. You might even call it wearable art. Johnny's designs can be seen all over the country in specialty boutique stores.

I love MyBat cell phone cases. I have worked with them in the past and I have to say that I would recommend their cases to everyone. You know the cases "Otterbox" for example they are very sturdy and great at protecting your phone?? Well these cases are a lot of money but do protect your phone great. How about about cases that protect your phone for almost 75% of that cost?? That is where mybat comes into place they have a ton of styles and colorful cases for a variety of phones not just the iphone. 

The first case I want to talk about is the Mybat Natural HotPink/White Tuff Enuff Hybrid. I really do love this case it is so protective and very sturdy if I were to drop my phone it would be ok and I wouldn't be to upset because this case reminds me a lot of the otterbox protection. This case retails for
