These are my favorite books that I think about to this day and recommend to friends and family. Ones that have changed the way I think, and ones that were just too cute to forget.

I’ve been working from home since 2020 and I NEVER want to go back to an office. Here are items I have in my home office that have made me love my space.

I became an aunt in April and it’s been the BEST. Here are some items we’ve gotten my nephew that he or his parents love! And a few that are my next gifts….

I’m a dog mom to a perfect 8.5 year old golden retriever/cocker spaniel mix named Gob. He’s boujee and spoiled, so here’s what I’ve gotten him!

I’m usually lounging, but lounging in athletic wear is the best. These are my favorite comfy clothes and shoes. You can look like your on your way to a workout, but really just be on your way to the couch!

A list of tried and luxury-like affordable skincare, makeup, and haircare to make getting ready luxurious without breaking the bank.

Yes, I may have seen a few too many TikTok videos about these products, but once I tried them, I fell in love. No buyer’s remorse here! Lots of beauty and home gadgets.

Rhinestoning has been my hyper fixation hobby for about a year. Here are the supplies I would recommend to get started. And some of my pieces for sale on my Etsy page!

The most recent screenshots on my phone of items I want to buy. Everything from clothes Instagram feeds me or bags I read about on Reddit. Plus, always tennis shoes. Gives me a little longer to make the decision.

I love Meghan. I would love to have her closest, but I don’t have a duchess budget, so here are pieces she’s worn that are affordable for commoners, or pieces that give a strong Meghan vibe.

Born and raised in Des Moines. If you’re new in town, or just stopping through, here are some of my favorite spots in and around DSM.

Expensive is relative but these are big items that I saved for and studied before pulling the trigger. But, I have no buyer’s remorse.
