No sponsored lists, no stuff I’ve never actually touched. These are the things that are actually actually in my house, on my body, or keeping me sane on a regular basis. Some links are affiliate links. Meaning I make a small commission if you buy, at no extra cost to you. I’d tell you about these things either way!
MAGPlus+: I take the Sleep & Brain formula every night when I take my progesterone and allergy meds. I genuinely cannot shut up about it. No melatonin hangover, no groggy morning starts. Just actual sleep and calm body. I do the monthly subscription for $15.99 on auto ship so I don’t have to remember and I never run out.
Turns Out This Is My Circus and These Are My Monkeys: This notebook was a gift from my best friend who has known me long enough to know that it is absolutely my circus. I don’t free write in it — I use it to catch ideas before they disappear. Blog post sparks, things that happened that I don’t want to forget, random thoughts at 11pm that might become something. If your brain runs like mine, you need a dedicated place to put it down before it evaporates. $11.68 on Amazon.
What I Wore to Florence and the Machine: The shirt was $42.99 and I would pay that again without blinking. The pants were under $30. The whole outfit cost less than the concert ticket and I got significantly more use out of it. Links below — wear them together, wear them separately, wear the pants to bed. I won’t judge you!
The Dress That Does Everything: I wore this to concerts last summer. I wear it around the house. I wear it to bed. It’s a $33.99 black maxi dress that has somehow become my entire personality after 6pm. Deep V, flowy, zero structure, and maximum comfort. I accessorize it or keep it simple. I feel beautiful and sexy in it every single time which is something I genuinely can’t say about lots of things.
Nick’s Cologne (A Love Story): I am obsessed with Dior Sauvage on Nick. Obsessed. It is my catnip. The problem is Dior Sauvage costs approximately one mortgage payment per bottle. Enter Ventana by Armaf — $22.57 on Amazon and I am telling you, Johnny Depp vibes. JOHNNY DEPP VIBES. I bought this for Nick and I want to roll all over him every time he wears it. If your person needs a cologne or you want to subtly leave this page open on their browser — you’re welcome. 3,258 reviews. They know.
Evelyn’s HATCH Rest+: I cannot overstate how much this changed bedtime in our house. Sound machine, night light, sleep trainer, alarm clock. It does everything! But the thing that actually sold me is that I can control it from my phone no matter where I am. Sitter needs it on earlier? Done from my couch. Sister’s watching Evelyn and has no idea how it works? Done from wherever I am. It is toddler sleep witchcraft and I am a full believer. Hatch Rest+ 2nd Gen. You’re welcome and I’m sorry about your wallet, but sleep is priceless!
Project Cloud Platform Sandals Women: These are the sandals that kept showing up on my IG feed until I finally caved — and I’m glad I did. Cloud Project sandals have actual arch support (crucial for aging feet), adjustable straps that flip around the back of your heel for secure walking (the kids call it “four wheel drive”), and they’re cute enough to wear to summer concerts. I tested them during a long weekend while I was sick — if you can wear sandals comfortably while you’re miserable and they still feel good, they pass. These are lightweight, cushioned, and worth the hype. Perfect for all-day walking, travel, or just running errands when you need support without sacrificing style.
