MARCH FAVORITE FIVE | 2023


| CRUSHED VELVET TERRACOTTA CURTAINS |

I usually will just run to Target or maybe Home Goods for decor items but I am trying to both shop small and also find things that not everyone has. But I got these crushed velvet terracotta curtains and I absolutely love them in our master bedroom! They really bring an awesome pop of color to the space without looking too heavy or too much. I am trying to go for colorful-ish boho but still light and airy.

| RAISED GARDEN BED |

In the past, we have tried to do a garden in planters on the side of our house and it just hasn’t worked for a few different reasons. One being it was inconvenient and two I think we tried to do too many varieties of plants all at once. This year we got this raised planter bed and I only planted 4 vegetables which will be much easier to manage, not to mention it is inside our pool cage making it easier to water and tend to. But I am loving the raised garden bed, it was easy to put together, it’s pretty and it is very well made! I will keep you guys posted on how it is going!

| BLACK SHORTS OVERALLS |

I am OBSESSED with these overalls and tell me if I am wrong but I don’t feel like I use the word obsessed very often when it comes to sharing clothing. I got these in my Nuuly box and I will be 1,000% keeping them and possibly ordering them in other colors because they are just that good! I have worn them to just work at the house, to Epcot, and also to the farmers market, I am in love with them! They are a little on the pricier side but honestly, I feel like there are jeans that I have purchased for more money and these are a whole outfit! I can’t recommend them enough!

| LIZZY FLOWER RING SET |

I got this ring set when I ordered from the $7 jewelry sale from Francescas and I just keep grabbing for them when I am putting rings on! I love how many were in the pack and they go so well with my rings from Pandora! I have also washed my hands multiple times so far with them on and so far no green fingers! I am really impressed with the quality, I’m sure they won’t last forever but so far so good.

| RECESS MOOD DRINK MIX |

This was a drink that I kept getting an ad for on TikTok and I was finally worn down and bought them and now I am so glad that I did! It is a drink that has magnesium powder which calms the mind and can also lift your mood which I love! I mix it with water or mio and it is delicious. I like the gradient berry flavor the most but the unflavored and lemon citrus are also both really good! I definitely recommend trying these out if you are looking for a more natural way to calm yourself.

FEBRUARY FAVORITE FIVE | 2023


| RUST COLORED RUG FOR THE PORCH |

This rug caught my eye one day while I was in Target, I had been wanting something to replace the rug that was out on our front porch for a while but was waiting for the right thing to jump out at me. I love the color of this one and it is a better size match to the larger rug that is under it on our front porch! It is technically an indoor rug but our porch is covered so it has been working for us!

| AEIRE ORANGE TENNIS SKIRT |

I got this tennis skirt while I was in New York hoping that I grabbed the right size and I am SO glad that I got it! I grabbed a large and that was perfect for me, I think an XL (the size I would usually get) would have been too big. I got the orange but it came in so many other colors and I love it so much that I want it in another color!

| STAR HOOP EARRINGS |

These earrings are the cutest! I got them on Amazon and I love them so much! They have a cute starburst kind of design on them and they go with so many outfits! I have really been on an Amazon jewelry kick lately! Plus these ones aren’t too heavy for my ears which is really nice.

| WHITE TARGET SNEAKERS |

Another Target purchase that I made in February was these white sneakers. I wore them all over New York on that trip and I keep grabbing them now. I have paired them with jeans, Spanx leather leggings, bike shorts, and sweatpants… they are just a great affordable pair of casual sneakers that go with lots of outfits! Definitely, a closet staple that I am happy to finally have for myself!

| KNEE PILLOW FROM AMAZON |

I never thought I would everrrrrr be buying let alone sharing this for the internet but I am a side sleeper and I usually put a blanket between my knees when I sleep but this pillow is a GAME CHANGER. I got it about two weeks ago now and I don’t know how I have gone this long without it. It really changed the game, plus I’m not a doctor but I feel like it’s helping my lower back!

JANUARY FAVORITE FIVE | 2023


| BELT BAG AND IRON-ON PATCHES |

I LOVE this tee! I got it in my Nuuly box in January and I wear it all of the time! I am wearing a large and it is like perfectly oversized and amazing! It’s perfect with jean shorts but I also have worn it tucked into my sports bra and paired it with denim and a pair of sneakers!

| BEAUTY BLENDER CASE |

This is a pretty simple find but I wanted something to put my beauty blender into so it wouldn’t roll around in my makeup bag anymore so I ordered this! It’s cute and does the job! I also think it comes in a few other colors!

| BEDSHEETS ORGANIZER |

Over Christmas break, Dustin and I organized the closet that used to have ALL of our games in it. We swapped everything out and made it a linen closet but once we did that I really wanted something to keep the different sets of sheets together so I ordered these and they have been working great!

| RARE BEAUTY BLUSH IN SHADE BLISS |

I know that I haven’t stopped talking about this blush but I seriously love it so much and I have no idea why it took me so long to hop on the liquid blush trend! I think this shade is just perfect for everyday wear! But when I want more of a bold look I just build on the blush and it pops a bit more. I do think I want to add a more bold shade to my makeup bag, but not sure which direction to go yet!

| AMAZON BODYSUITS |

I’ve mentioned these bodysuits before over on Instagram and they made the January Favorites list because I feel like I wear them all the time! They come in a pack of three and there are a ton of different color combinations that they come in. These bodysuits have like extra ribbing around the stomach so it really sucks everything in!

My Current Wishlist | Winter 2023

I have been keeping track of the things that I want this year rather than impulse buying them the way that I usually do… but I thought I would share with you guys a few things that are on that list! There are a few makeup products that I couldn’t wait for anymore that I did actually buy like the Rare Beauty blush and the Ouai detox shampoo! But the Stanley cup, I really think that I only want it because of the color lol! I don’t know that I actually need it!

DECEMBER FAVORITE FIVE | 2022


| BELT BAG AND IRON-ON PATCHES |

This fanny pack and the iron-on patches are sort of a two-in-one for December’s favorites but I got this belt bag from Amazon and then I wanted to add a bit of Disney to it so I got these patches and now I just need to iron them on and I can’t wait to see how it turns out. I love the look of the Stoney Clover bags but I don’t have one yet! I think this will turn out so cute! I can’t wait to wear it in the parks!

| CHIN MASKS FROM AMAZON |

I have seen these chin masks things everywhere on TikTok and I finally pulled the trigger on purchasing them after the 100th recommendation. I think other people's results are so cool, sold try them I thought I would. I have used three and I THINK I can tell a difference. I am going to order more and do all seven of them in a row (or at least try) and I will share the results with you guys on Instagram!

| SET OF THREE SMALL HOOP EARRINGS |

Dustin put these earrings in my stocking this year and I have been wearing them nonstop! I put the medium ones in my second piercing and the large ones in my main piercing and love the look of it! It’s simple but it still looks put together which I really like. I also use the smallest pair in my second piercing with other statement earrings for a date night, and I also like that look!

| PACK OF THREE TANK TOPS |

These tanks come in a three-pack on Amazon and I was getting frustrated that I couldn’t link the Gaze tank tops for you guys that I get from TJ Maxx I wanted to try something new and I really like these so far! They aren’t a double-layered fabric but they do suck you in which I like. I wear the black one and the grey one a lot!

| BROWN NIKE JOGGERS |

Another thing that Dustin got me for Christmas was a pair of the most comfortable Nike joggers! I think I have had them on at some point every single day since I opened them. I am so happy with them and they also wash really well which is a bonus! I really like wearing these with those tank tops that I talked about above!

NOVEMBER FAVORITE FIVE | 2022


| CHRISTMAS TREE SHEETS |

This year for Christmas we had an extra string of garland and we decided to put it above our bed on the headboard and I absolutely love how it turned out. I felt like we needed a little bit more Christmas in there so I grabbed these sheets on a Target trip one day and now I’m not sure how I’ve gone my whole life without decorating my room for Christmas!

| WOMEN'S HIGH RISE VINTAGE FLARE JEANS |

I have wanted a pair of wide leg denim, a pair of black denim with no holes and also a pair of denim with the stripe detail that these have for so long and when I saw these I had to get them because they checked all three of those boxes for me! I have grown to love Abercrombie denim and these fit like a dream! I have a 32 regular and they fit great. They are a bit long but I plan to wear them with a little bit of a heel. I am 5’5 so if you are any shorter than me I would get a them in a short!

| MICKEY AND MINNIE MOUSE BUTTON UP SHIRT |

When we are at Hollywood Studios the other day we were just wandering through the shops and I found this CUTE Mickey Mouse button up shirt and I have never walked up to the counter to purchase something in my life! I can wear it now but also in the warmer months with it tied around my waist, it is so versatile! For the winter I picture it tucked into jeans and in the summer I picture a black tank top, black bike shorts and and it tied around my waist. But there are so many other ways! I was SO happy with this find!

| Pink canyon perfume by Skylar |

I have a recent obsession with perfume and I feel 10000% okay with it. I have been on a little “buying new perfume” kick and this is one of my recent favorites. It is from the brand Skylar and I have three fidderent perfumes from Skylar now and this just might be my favorite. It is the scent Pink Canyon and it has notes of citrus and cedar! I always gravitate towards citrus but there is something about this perfume mixed with the cedar scent that I am loving! I just have the travel size roller ball but I might have to get the bigger one when this runs out.

| IT HAPPENED ONE SUMMER BY TESSA BAILEY |

I started this book almost two months ago, sort of forgot that I was listening to it and then came back to it and have been loving it since. I like this author a lot, her name is Tessa Bailey. The only negative this is if you are going to listen to this book on Audible I wasn’t a huge fan of the narrators voice when she was portraying the main male character. But it didn’t bother me so badly I didn’t finish the book!

SEPTEMBER FAVORITE FIVE


| DECORATIVE BATS FROM AMAZON |

I’m sure that you have seen these everywhere on Instagram and Tiktok but they are SO easy to decorate with and they really have that minimal Halloween vibe. We used these in our apartment in Boston and they looked so awesome! I will mention to NOT use the sticky tack that they give you because it will absolutely ruin your walls.. trust me, we know from experience! Instead, just use a little piece of tape and it will work just the same!

| OUR VINYL SHELVES |

We have been working on this project for a while now and it’s nowhere near done but the shelves that we bought to create our vinyl wall in our not-so-formal living room have been so great and we love the look of the acrylic shelves on the black wall! We obviously have many missing records, but eventually, this space will be a cool hang- spot! We plan to put a couple of funky chairs and a table for the record player under the records to have a little hang-out spot across from the daybed!

| SALTED HONEY CANDLE |

This candle is freakin DELISH. I love the color and style of the jar and will definitely reuse it when it runs out. I will also be sad when that happens but I feel like I am going to need to stock up because I never want this scent to go away! It’s a scent I have never smelled before but it’s fantastic!

| SHANIA TWAIN RECORD |

Like most people I know, I grew up listening to Shania and love that crap out of her. I found her record on Amazon and couldn’t press “place order” fast enough! The seller said it would take up to a month, but it came in just over a week, so I was impressed with that! This is “The Woman in Me” Record and it has ALL the good songs on it like Any Man of Mine, Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under, (If You're Not In It For Love) I'm Outta Here! and so many others!

| WYOMING TEE FROM TARGET |

I grabbed this tee when I did a Target try-on for you guys last month and I keep grabbing for it in my closet! It’s not as oversized as I am used to but I kind of like it! I like to pair it will the joggers that I got that day or if it is warmer I will just front-tuck it into some jean shorts! I got an XXL and I really like the fit of it. It is the Wild Fable Brand so the XXL is pretty normal for me, sizing-wise!
