I Wore Headphones to Work


If you're new here, let me catch you up to speed on one of my most favorite things real fast. That thing would be music and I'm all about it. I'm constantly updating my playlists on Spotify and every Friday here in Yoga Pants-ville I invite all of blog land to come share the songs they're currently #backthatazzup-ing to. When I'm running the only thing that keeps me going is music, when I'm driving the only thing that keeps me awake and away from boredom is music, when I'm getting ready the only thing that convinces me to actually stand in my sauna of a bathroom is music. It's just one of my things, I suppose.

One thing I hate about the whole running thing is trying to keep my earbuds in my ears because there's nothing worse than really getting into a song and then having your sweaty earbuds fall out, inevitably making you miss your favorite part of the song. Am I right? Answer: Yes.

Another issue I have with earbuds is that after a while of wear they start to make my baby ears sore and when you're on a 2+ hour flight, that just isn't going to cut it. Why can I just have my comfort and eat it too listen to my awesome music too?! Oh wait, I can now thanks to a little company called Monster who offers stylish, comfortable and, wait for it, durable headphones that don't force me to shove things inside of my ears.






These babies are pure awesomeness, incredible quality, and I'm already scoping out which color I want to get bear for Christmas (shhh, don't tell him.) because I know he would love these just as much as I do. But in all seriousness, these Monster Candy headphones are the shiznat. To be honest, I questioned them a bit because I thought, "Who really needs headphones this extravagant?". Answer: I DO because they're freaking amazing and I feel like Miley is singing right into my ears.
To win your very own pair of N-Tune headphones (valued at $150), read all about the Monster headphones here and let me know in the comments of this post which color you prefer. The comments on this post will be aggregated with the comments on the posts from the other bloggers participating in this review, and 25 pairs will be given away. This giveaway will close on Nov 1.

    I've been thinking about getting a good pair of headphones! Especially since I share an office with someone now, and he tends to have a lot of more private conversations so I find myself living with earbuds in my ears while at work.... I like the candy purple!

    Your ears hurt too?? I've used my buds on so many long haul flights I'm pretty sure my ears start hurting just at the thought of using them again. I bought a cheapo pair of headphones to help with the pain, but they're not so great.

    The Candy Red ones are gorgeous. But Candy Purple would mean than any future man friend would not wish to borrow them. What can I say? I'm not big on sharing.

    Um, I'd be ALL OVER those candy purple up in the gym. It's a sad state of affairs when your 13 year old son is rocking better headphones than you are...my son has Beats and I have the sad iPod earbuds that came with my iPod I have owned for oh 4 years.
