What was the consensus on the Sleep Number vs. Tempurpedic debate? Have you decided on one or the other?
Overall, people like the Tempurpedic over the Sleep Number. One of our followers is a chiropractor and said she has never had a patient who has loved their Sleep Number so that was a pretty big endorsement for the Tempur for me. I had about only about 3 people say they loved their Sleep Number. We ended up ordering a Tempur from Costco because it was like 2k cheaper than ordering it direct so we’ll see if we end up liking it or not.. we have 90 days to test it out and if it’s just not for us, we’ll return it! Also heard Sleep Number’s return policy is a pain and Tempur comes with white glove service so overall, for the same price it seemed like the best option for us.
What moisturizer do you use during the winter months? Any favorite serums right now?
I (Heather) had a few months of fantastic skin but with the winter months and quarantine, it brought a whole bunch of “maskne” so I have really been conscious of what I put on my face. Whenever my skin breaks out, I get back to the basics. I cleanse with this iS complex cleanser, use this serum as a spot treatment, and Skinceuticals retinol (I alternate between the spot treatment and retinol.. too much of either irritates my skin). As for moisturizer, I come back to my Drunk Elephant Protini time and time again because it’s so light and doesn’t leave me feeling oily.
What winter coat are you sporting during these super cold months? I’m thinking more something for everyday and under $300.
We both love the Amazon coat everyone raves about and says is so warm! This one by Eddie Bauer is so cute and a great price point as well. Heather just purchased this down Nike parka for some upcoming local snow trips. And we have both been rocking our Lulu vests with heavy sweatshirts underneath to stay warm.
I want to get all my girlfriends something for Christmas but don’t want to spend over $25 on each gift. Any ideas?
Here are some ideas:
How did you like Winc Wines and do you have a discount code?
I think this is such an awesome brand and a great option for people who want to try out 4 different wines each month.. you can pick between reds, whites, rosé or bubbles, which really called to us! You take a quiz based on your flavor profiles you gravitate toward and Winc will suggest wines (but you can change those out if you want to try something else). It’s a flexible membership so you can try any bottles you want but with no strings attached and you can skip a month or cancel at anytime, no questions asked. You can use this link to get 40% your first order + free shipping! So that’s 4 bottles of wine for just $39.

What are your favorite boots for the snow?
Sorel’s are probably the most practical winter snow boot and love these (the black version here) and these. A bunch of my friends have this pair and it has lasted them years. This is Ugg’s version and I bet they are super comfortable… the white are so chic. Can’t go wrong with any of these options and your feet will be very happy and warm. Don’t go cheap on your winter boots.. there is nothing worse than being cold in the snow (Alix will tell you she wore Hunter rain boots during her first winter here and learned her lesson HARD).
Alix- what was your iced chai order the other day? I love chai but not all the sugar and calories!
I asked for a grande iced chai with almond milk, 2 pumps chai, and light ice. It’s good, but not too sweet.
I want a pair of all white sneakers for Christmas but don’t have the budget for Golden Goose. Can you link some options?
So many great, budget friendly options for white sneakers! The Veja sneakers are just as popular as Golden Goose but with a way better price tag. Adidas have always been our favorite go-to sneakers and these are currently 40% off (as are these)! These are also super clean and chic.
Heather- what are you getting your boys for Christmas this year?
My boys are getting new LEGO sets (they love anything cars, jets, or Star Wars), Cameron is getting a new bike, and Parker is getting some Fat Brain educational toys. Jackson also really wants a football jersey with his name on the back so he might get that, too! And then my husband went behind my back and got them a 4-wheeler for the backyard and I did not approve that message so I don’t think it counts 😉 But yeah they’re gonna lose their mind over it.
What do you wear with faux leather leggings? I have two pairs and always debate what goes with them. Dress up or down?
We both have these faux leather leggings and feel like they are so versatile. You can wear them with a shacket, coatigan, or we love this sweater with them that you can dress up with booties or down with sneakers. You can also wear an oversized pullover like this or this with boots like this or sneakers. For the holidays you could totally dress them up with a sweater like this, fun headband, and OTK boots.
Loved your stocking stuffer gift guide for her but need some options for HIM! Can you link some fun things to throw in there?!
Yes! We like to throw in socks, boxers, candy, cologne, a pound of his favorite coffee, and a hat or beanie! Here are some ideas:
