Good Things (January 2019)

Jan312019

During the holidays, I took a little break from sharing my list of good things, but it’s back and full of fun products (and one slightly creepy podcast) that I discovered during the month of January. Enjoy!

This $13 candle smells so yummy in my kitchen.

The simple jewelry (especially the ear cuffs) from this Etsy shop.

And these inexpensive hoops.

Hands down, my favorite liquid eyeliner. (Doesn’t flake or fade.)

I just started this podcast, and I’m hooked. I’m sure you’ll remember the case when it was in the news.

This cozy cardigan. (I’ve been living in it around the house since ordering a few weeks ago.)

Hate to talk about swimsuits now, but when you find a good one. . . (Full bottom coverage which I appreciate.)

This is a great little necklace for layering with others.

According to “the internet”, this is the red lip everyone is suppose to be able to wear. (I’ll vouch for it, but I do have to wear a lip balm with it.)

Did I mention that I like/love my heated massage pillow?

These $16 sneakers for my girls.

I found out about them through this Instagram account.

These comfy $24 slip-ons for me. (As recommended in the reviews, I sized down a 1/2 size.)

I’ll never be a Keurig convert, but I like this coffee maker so much I bought it twice.

Good Things (October 2018)

Nov12018

Happy November! Before we dive headfirst into Christmas, I’m revisiting some of the good (Fall) things I discovered during October.

This large blue and white jar I recently added to my collection.

This OPI nail polish in “You Don’t Know Jacques!” for Fall. I use three coats followed by this topcoat for shine, followed by a fast dry spray, and it lasts for close to a week!

I’m also loving these metallic lipsticks from Ulta.

This blazer (with scrunched sleeves) that I took on my NYC trip last week. I layer it over a long tunic and leggings.

And, believe it or not, I found these pretty gold forks (and knives and spoons) at the same place. (Perfect for Thanksgiving!)

My oldest daughter and I have been sharing this cozy shawl cardigan.

I assume we’re also sharing this charcoal face mask because I keep finding the bottle in her bathroom.

I just received this brass cuff stamped with all of my kids’ names. I love it so much. (Great gift idea!)

This Etsy art shop. I just ordered a print for our living room.

These manly little shoes are fun with cuffed jeans and sweaters. (If you’re cooler than me, you can probably put them with dresses.)

These comfy (and inexpensive) leopard loafers that I included in my IG stories earlier this week.

If you need a dependable tote, I’ve had this one for over a year and it’s my favorite carry-on/laptop bag.

And, since I always like to leave you with a good song, listen to this one. I turn it up loud in the car after I drop the kids at school and have a moment. :)

Good Things (August 2018)

Sep42018

Well, that was a nice break–from blogging, from posting to social media on a regular basis, from real life. . . My husband and I even snuck in a weekend trip to Aruba (thanks to the Marriott resort and my parents who watched the kids!), and we got home the night before the twins started kindergarten. So here I am. All five kids in school and 124 projects I want to start at one time. I wonder if I’ll ever get to the point of sitting and eating bonbons. I’m not seeing that in my immediate future. . .

A few of the good things I discovered during August:

I have officially deemed these my “happy pants”. The softest, most comfortable sleep pants I’ve owned–and you can totally get away with wearing them to school drop off. I just ordered a second pair because it makes me sad when mine are in the laundry.

I don’t read a ton of nonfiction but I loved this book. The small things really are the big things.

Adding this to our living room because who doesn’t want a head planter?! Extra discount codes available through tonight.

And, my pagoda mirror is also on sale with an extra 20 and 10% off through tonight. . .

This is a great H&M collaboration with lots of pretty prints. I ordered this dress and it looks polished but feels like you’re wearing a muumuu. Who could ask for more, really?

I’ve found some super cute shoes from here lately. (Check out these and these.) Today, they’re offering extra Labor Day (extended) weekend discounts.

This one is random, but I have a 13-almost-14-year-old boy who is allergic to any pants that don’t have an elastic waistband (mentally allergic, not literally allergic 🙄) and maybe you do, too. We ordered these shorts from Amazon Essentials (for school)–men’s sizes and the price is right.

If you’re jumping on the hoop trend, I’ve been wearing these a lot.

I’ve had this song on repeat. Love the words. We can’t mess up too badly, and that’s a really good thing.
