The holidays bring out the bling! There is no better time to splurge on a pair of sparkly, dangly earrings than during Christmas and New Year’s. They just add a little pop to any holiday outfit. I plan to do a full post on my favorite sparklers but for now I’ll tease you with these gorgeous baubles:
The lighting in my bathroom leaves a lot to be desired and sometimes I come out of it after doing my makeup looking like a damn clown. So I finally wisened up and bought myself a mirror vanity for my countertop that has LED lights and magnifying mirrors so I can apply makeup properly! The lights provide so much extra light and the magnifiers are INTENSE… I can see it all.. even the things I don’t WANT to see. But now I can cover things up without totally caking it on.
My aunt had this charger at our house over Thanksgiving break and I immediately asked what it was because she had two devices plugged into it at once.. genius! She said her friend has done a TON of research on portable chargers and this one takes the cake when it comes to reviews. 5 stars and over 17,000 reviews.. good enough for me to make the investment! I charge it in my car and take it with me wherever I go because let’s be honest, my phone is always running low. I have a tiny, pink one from Target that I still use and cart with me but this one from Amazon is HEAVY DUTY and I can charge multiple devices at once.
This one may seem weird and sure, it kind of is and you can make fun of me all you want! But I read that rock salt lamps have some FAB benefits that I think you should know about before you totally knock this fave of mine. I keep this salt lamp in my bathroom at all times and shower and get ready (minus my makeup) with it on with all of my other lights turned OFF. This is an important detail. I like it moody. Dim. Calm. Peaceful. Why? Rock salt lamps have the following benefits:
Cleanse and purify the air, calm allergies and reduce asthma, boost blood flow, raise energy levels, sharpen concentration and focus, and enhance your mood.
Sound like hocus pocus? Sure. Whatever. But it’s cute and sits so perfectly on my countertop and puts out the vibe while I shower and get my ass ready for the day. Namaste.

I was so obsessed with my On The Fly Crops (which are on major sale BTW!) I had to add the joggers to my collection. They recently released “Dark Adobe” color and I snagged them right away! I wore these last week on my flight with Quinn where she spilled my entire glass of white wine on my lap. My pants dried SO fast and you would have had no idea the spill had happened. Best travel pants! I like these pants to fit a little looser, so I size up from my normal size in bottoms.
My love for Daily Harvest is not new, but I’ve been relying on these more lately to get in my morning smoothie. I wrote up a review on Daily Harvest a while back. Since that review I’ve been adding 1-2 harvest bowls to my order and have found these so helpful to have on hand when I need something quick and easy for lunch or dinner. I like brussels sprouts + lime pad thai, sweet potato + wild rice hash, and lentil + mesquite chili soup! Most recently I ordered the Peppermint CBD latte for a sweet treat night cap and it’s SO GOOD!
I know…random right?! I’ve been using mine for a few months now every night after I brush my teeth and floss (this cardamon floss is life changing btw) and I’m obsessed. Even if you brush your tongue you’ll be surprised/disgusted by the film that scrapes off your tongue. It’s supposed to help with bad breath and improve overall oral hygiene. Hot tip: be gentle and don’t over scrape your tongue…I got a little aggressive my first time… oops! Also get one as a stocking stuffer for your husband 😉
Full disclosure… I used to think these were the dumbest shoes and such a waste of money. Here I am a year later the proud new owner of my very first pair of GG and I’m obsessed. I am a size 9 and ordered a 39 and they fit perfect. So far I’m having no issues at all breaking them in. I had been eyeing the high-tops like Heather got, but I figured I would get more wear out of the low-top sneakers. They are actually the perfect shoes for mammas because you don’t care when your toddler is stepping all over your new shoes ha! #noregrets
