I pride myself on having an extremely comfortable bed.. like this is my calling to make things cozy?!! Anyways, I’ve had my mattress topper for quite some time and have shared before but in December, I slowed down a ton over winter break and spent a lot of time reading in my comfy space. It reminded me that I needed to do the same for my kid’s beds and recently ordered each of them a mattress topper for their rooms, too. This topper is legit the comfiest thing in the world. I have one on my guest bed as well and my friends can attest that they fight for that room when we have sleepovers 😉
Over the past 6 months, I have invested in quality, matching workout sets as I go to yoga/pilates at least twice a week and wanted cute sets for my workouts. I also wanted the quality and comfort to be there. Beyond Yoga is both of those things for me and I have since acquired a number of colors but my newest obsession is the layered look like this set. It comes in black/white, grey/white combo (which I got), and navy and I got size M in both top and bottom.
It’s the time of year when the only appropriate outerwear jacket in the PNW is a puffer jacket. The Aritzia version is top notch for warmth and style.. I have the black in the short version as I already have a really long puffer from Nike that looks like a sleeping bag. I love all the color options and think it’s perfect for the mild rainy weather we get as well as taking to the ski hill to throw on after a day on the slopes. I also love the Apres puff.
A godsend in the winter months. I deal with skin barrier issues and sometimes perioral dermatitis in the winter time and this was recommended to me by my very trusted dermatologist. I get redness or dryness fairly often and this is a dream on my skin. If I am breaking out or having dry areas, I stop all actives/retinoids and use this heavy cream instead. I layer it on at night and let it absorb into my skin and it is so soothing, hydrating and healing. I also use it in the morning if I am feeling dry. It’s thick but my skin drinks it up this time of year especially.

Embarrassing story about how I discovered these socks. One early morning I get to pickleball to discover I don’t have socks. If I set out socks or shoes there is a 99% chance Daisy will snag them and hide them. A little game she likes to play. Anyways, I don’t have socks and one of the guys I play with is like I have these extra socks- it’s my buddies company. I’m mortified borrowing socks from a guy, but I also don’t want to play sockless. Anyways, I love them so much that I buy my own 3-pack. They are like barre/pilates socks, but for sports with lateral movement. When I wear my Bomba socks playing I can feel my foot shifting in my shoe. These socks have grips and keep your foot stable in your shoe. I’m a big fan now!
After Christmas I always go on a big declutter and organizing kick. I literally want to throw away everything in sight. I got these hat organizers and they have been so helpful in organizing my hats and my husband’s. I actually have more hats than he does so I needed to buy 2 packs of these, but I can actually see all of the hats I have and I appreciate how they look neatly organized.
Back on my meal prep game and I am obsessed with these jars. They are the perfect size for my overnight oats or chia pudding. They come in a 4-pack which is the perfect amount when meal prepping. The bamboo lids make them look super cute and portable for breakfast or snack on the go. I honestly feel like if you have cute and functional containers it motivates me meal prep more.
Did you know you could change the color of the magslider on your Yeti cups?! I did not until recently and I got this pink 3-pack and love adding some color to my lids. Yes, I know this may seem lame, but these are the little things that bring me joy. Cheap thrills. You can get a lot of different colors and they work on all/most Yeti lids.
