I LOVE these headphones. High quality noise cancellation for a really affordable price. The first image is the color I have, but feel free to change it.

Monitor Stands

Keeping your monitor at eye level prevents you from hunching over your desk, which is essential for your posture. This not only helps reduce neck strain but also adds extra storage space under your monitor.

Before I upgraded my setup, this used to be my old monitor stand. It's simple, cheap, and easy to set up. Definitely worth it, if you want to stop hunching over to view your laptop.

This is my current monitor stand. I CANNOT stress how good this is! The setup was easy, and everything is included in the box. The arms adjustable too so you can change it to your comfort. If you have the money, DEFINITELY splurge!

As a student things can get messy, ESPECIALLY during finals week. This stand keeps all of my stuff tucked away and organized, and on top of that it looks good too.

Cable Management

A desk setup can go from a 5 to a 9 if you can manage your cables. Don't worry, it's actually easier than it looks!

This kit is GOD SEND. When I first began renovating my desk area, it seemed all cluttered. Ever since I bought this kit, my desk has never looked better. OH did I mention that its 192 pieces?!

Another item that makes my setup clutter-free. The stand is also pretty practical, so you can put it virtually anywhere. Also, the setup is easy, all you have to do is tighten the clamp.

I LOVE my mouse pad. There's not much to be said about this product, but I guess there's not much to be said about mouse pads in general.

I'm a mechanical keyboard girlie for life. This is the model I have, and it works perfectly, on top of that the clicky sounds are good too. The best part about this brand is that their keyboards have a premium feel without a premium price tag.

This wireless charger is SUPER quick. Before I bought this I used to use wired charging because I thought it was faster, but after buying this charger it proved me wrong. Plus it looks so pretty too!

A touch of greenery can make your workspace feel more peaceful and less sterile. The trees are also customizable too, so if you don't like one design, feel free to change it.

Logitech always has the most comfortable mouses. When I lost my old one, this mouse did an excellent job at replacing it, the battery life is great, it's small, and it doesn't give you any wrist pain.

My rooms always hot during the Summer and when your computer runs all day it makes your room even hotter. This fan doesn't need any batteries, so just plug and go. Also, the fan is super quiet, so you won't hear a thing.
