January Favorites

Alix

Skin Fridge

I’m loving my skin fridge! I keep my C-Firma, these Water Drench Hydra-Gel Eye Patches, this Watermelon GLOW sleep mask, my rose quartz facial roller, my gua sha facial tool, this ice roller. I can fit a few more small things in it, so will continue to add. My inspo was Lauryn from The Skinny Confidential and she wrote about her skin fridge here.

Target Pullovers

I had been eying a few front twist long sleeved top from Alo (love this one), but just didn’t want to commit the $$. I saw the pullover linked above and figured for $24 I’d give it a shot! I got it in grey and sized up to a medium and LOVE it. It’s perfect for early morning barre or lagree classes and want to get more colors. I also got this JoyLab pullover in burlwood. It’s so incredibly soft and and I also sized up to a medium for a looser fit. Don’t get me wrong I love my Lulu and Alo, but sometimes for tops I like to save money and check out what Target has first. They have really stepped up their activewear game!

Align Pant

Obviously we are all obsessed with Lulu’s align shop, but I was just sticking to the crops for some reason. I wanted a new pair of black leggings and I wanted them to hit right at my ankle like my Zella ones do. I’m 5’4″ and the 25″ fit perfect! I got them in the color diverge emboss black and are 100% worth the splurge when you’re ready for new leggings.

Tula Eye Balm

I needed to know if the hype was real or bloggers were just touting this because they wanted people to buy it from them. So, I took it upon myself to test it out. I bought it a few weeks ago and I really do like it so far! I keep it in my purse, so I always have it on hand when I need a little eye brightening and lets just say it’s really come in handy the past few days. It also has a cooling effect that feels so good!

Gold Filled Bracelets

Erica has made us both a set of gold filled bracelets we never take off. I wear mine 24/7 and have no issues. She makes really quality bracelets and reasonably priced for what you’re getting. I just ordered 2 more…I’m getting a name bracelet with a black B for Bailey and I also love this evil eye to layer with it.

Equilibria CBD Drops

After I had each of my kids, I had some pretty bad postpartum anxiety but never did anything about it until after my third baby. After Parker was born, I was put on an anti-anxiety medication and while it worked and I felt much better, I knew it wasn’t intended for long-term use. I eventually weaned off but still needed something to keep my hormones and anxiety in check. Insert Equilibria CBD specifically made for women by women. I take their drops daily every morning and sometimes again in the afternoon if I feel a spike in my anxiety and I can honestly say it works wonders for me.

**CBD is a natural ingredient found within industrial hemp flowers. It is clinically proven to impact mental and physical well-being, when taken properly and consistently. And yes, CBD is completely safe and legal in all 50 states. It is a powerful health agent, but there is no discernible impairment (no high!)**

Nike Air Max Sneakers

I’ve shared my love for these sneakers in the past because I own a few color combinations but they just keep getting better and better. I ordered the ones linked above and love the pop they give to my mom uniform of leggings and sweatshirts. If you want a more subtle look, I love the black and white versions here. I wear these as my everyday sneaker and don’t workout in them. I travel in them, run errands, do my school picks and drops offs and sometimes even pair them with jeans and a tee.

Oversized Shirts

I have always loved an oversized look.. from sweaters to flannels I just like a baggy top. I have seen so many cute oversized looks in the stores and the H&M shirt is one of my favorites. It is so cute paired with jeans and a tee underneath and again, it is the perfect uniform for a day of appointments, errands and shuffling the kids around.

Amazon Sweater (this one here too!)

Oh, Amazon why do you do this to me?! Every other day, I find a new sweater that gets added to my cart. The two I’ve linked here are cult favorites and could pass as a Free People sweater any day of the week. I am tempted to order them in all neutral color combos but for now I’m sticking to the whites and creams!

Sunglasses Chain Necklace

Not a look for everyone but ever since our vacations, I noticed my sunglasses getting lost or shoved deep down in my purse and I needed a way to keep them attached to my body even if I wasn’t wearing them. Insert the chain necklace trend. I have seen a couple bloggers rocking the trend like Itsybitsy Indulgences and Cella Jane so I decided to jump on the bandwagon. I think they look best with Ray-Ban’s (any style) honestly, so that’s how I’ve been wearing the look most. I think I will only wear the chain during the summer or on warm vacations instead of as an everyday look but for under $10, I thought it was an accessory worth purchasing.
