This is a really light, clean scent. I saw in the reviews that people thought it lacked projection, but I love this because I can wear it at work around patients or to my pilates class without worrying that it’s overpowering to those around me. I don...
Salt & Stone Lily & Yuzu Body and Hair Fragrance Mist
My bestie recommended this to me and now I am recommending it to everyone I know. This formula is extremely light weight and absorbs nicely into the skin. The consistency is almost serum-like—more liquid than thick cream, but it still nourishes my dr...
ROSIE body milk with white musk - By Rosie Jane
I love Eadem’s lip treatments and the new Churro de Canela tint is so perfect for fall. It’s a subtle cool-toned brown and leaves my lips hydrated for hours. It smells like a decadent pastry stuffed with caramel.
Le Chouchou Softening + Smoothing Peptide Daily Lip Balm
I honestly got this awhile ago and it had been sitting in my closet waiting for me to empty what I was currently using. Now that I am using it, I am so sad I waited! Literally a dream for my fine and dry hair—my hair feels like silk when I use the sh...
Milk Therapy Peptide Shampoo
A dreamy conditioner for anyone with dry and fine hair. Nourishes without weighing it down. I feel like I don’t even need my once weekly deep conditioning mask when I am using this. I was skeptical of haircare coming from a body care brand, but this ...
Milk Therapy Peptide Conditioner
I didn’t reach for this much when I got it over the summer, but I have been wearing it so much more now that the temps are cooling—I think it’s a great fall scent. It’s warm and spicy (I actually get more apple vibes than cherry vibes when I smell th...
Glazed Cherry Honey Infused Hair & Body Mist - Gisou
Clothing
I got this for our family photos and I love it. Worth the splurge because I know I can get a lot of wear out of it. I wore it with boots for pictures but I love how it looks with woven flats as well. Easy to style for every season! Highly recommend f...
Marine Layer Izzy Denim Shift Dress
This one would normally be out of my budget at almost $300, but I caught it at 70% off (still some sizes left!) and knew I would get a lot of use out of it. I live in Texas, so this still works for the current weather, but I think I could style it wi...

I have been loving the bandana print trend for fall—this bag is only $20 and looks way more $$$ (pics don’t do it justice). It’s a great mom tote because there’s room for so much stuff! I bought a couple higher price-point bags with a similar design ...
No Boundaries Quilted Tote Bag, Women's, Olive Bandana
I had these on my wishlist for almost a year and finally pulled the trigger. They are even more beautiful IRL. I have added a lot of Melanie Auld pieces to my collection over the past few years—they are unique designs and high quality. I was drawn to...
Dewdrop Huggies - Gold Vermeil
Maybe it’s just me, but red scarves like this one are all over my FYP and I love how much the bright pop of red really adds something to any outfit. There are $$$ options out there that are cashmere and wool—but if you’re not ready to invest that muc...
Oversized Rib-Knit Triangle Scarf
Books
This is a beautifully illustrated book that we love reading at bedtime. This is a sweet tale about sleepless nights that would make a really lovely gift—even for little little ones!
Star Fishing: A Picture Book
This was my book club’s September pick and I absolutely loved it. I read it in two days—I don’t want to give anything away about the story, but it has compelling characters and is beautifully written. Definitely a pick for anyone who likes stories ab...
Whistler: A Novel
I love to cook but have been short on time now that the school year is back in full swing. This has so many healthy, easy options that also make great leftovers. The author also has so many tips to change up each recipe with substitutions—not only ca...
