✨✨Work from home MUST HAVES if you’re just starting that WFH life

items I recently started working from home and these are my daily MUST HAVES to be productive. Some recommendations are a no brainer and others are a little out there…. But totally worth it.
Sometimes you just want to be comfy on the couch but don’t want to bend over your laptop. This desk is SO nice with the little place to keep your phone. I use this way more than I anticipated.
Lap Desk
This blanket is SO cozy and makes unbearable meetings so much easier. Not only is this blanket cozy but it’s aesthetically pleasing as well. What’s better than cozying up for a long meeting?

I throw this blazer over ANY shirt and I’m instantly elevated and ready for any meeting. I get compliments on this during video chats and have to laugh to myself because there’s usually a basic t shirt underneath.

Okay hear me out. I need to see everything in front of me, an Google Calendar doesn’t always do the trick. The Happy Planner has so many customizable options and you can move the pages around. That’s what makes this planner so unique!
The Happy Planner
If you use the Happy Planner you NEED the hole punch. Just do it!! You can make your own layouts, print them out, and put the pages anywhere you want in your planner. 10/10 recommend and use this way more than I anticipated.

I’m a pen and paper girlie 100% and who doesn’t love flair pens? I use these for everything… color coding helps me stay productive!

I clip this ring light to my laptop to make sure everyone can see me and I don’t appear dark during video calls. This has been a game changer for being present during video calls where you cannot turn off your camera.

Sometimes you just need an actual keyboard and mouse to be productive and this checks every box! I love that I can easily get my work done and let’s be real— sometimes the amount of clicking and scrolling you have to do is a PAIN with a keypad.

Sometimes you just need a dual screen but don’t have the space for an entire monitor. This makes EOM billing so much easier to have the dual screen that is compact. If you’re busy, but lack space this is 100% worth it

Listen to a podcast, noise canceling AND answer calls? If you don’t have AirPods you need a set. Trust me. The noise canceling alone if you’re out and about makes these worth every penny.

I thought I loved my Apple Watch but then when I started working from home I loved it even more. Set alarms? Reminders? Respond to text messages? Know when that email you’ve been waiting for all day finally comes through? Know who’s calling before yo...

Comfy cozy socks are a MUST. I’ve learned if my feet are cold I’m not productive so why not get the fuzzy socks with the grippy bottom?
