I’m Sorry To Tell You… But These Things Are Worth It
11
items I’m sorry to tell you, but… sometimes the pricier thing really is worth it. These are the elevated wardrobe, beauty, home, and everyday essentials I’ve tried, loved, or have had my eye on, and genuinely think are worth spending a little more on. Thin...

The Clothes
The clothes that make getting dressed easier—and somehow always look good. Classic, elevated wardrobe staples and everyday pieces that cost a little more, but earn their keep.
Need a sweater? Or a jacket? This one has you covered for both. Soft and beautifully knitted, the weight is both comfortable and substantial, perfect for layering. I wear mine all fall and spring!
The Cotton Sweater Jacket | Alice Walk
Such a classic, understated dress. Perfect for a fancy night out, a gala dinner, or a wedding guest dress. The colors (I have the bright pink) keep things interesting while the silhouette keeps you looking polished. And it has pockets! What more coul...
Green Dupioni Esme Dress | Tuckernuck
So comfy and luxurious. Sleep in them, hang out in them, they're perfect either way. I have 2 sets of my own and I've purchased multiple for friends and family too!
Relax Pants Set in English Navy | Lake
Not just a long sleeve t-shirt. This one is a dreamy, heavyweight pima cotton that is so soft and lightweight. You can wear it with jeans, shorts, leggings, or even over your shoulders!
The Early Mornings Tee | AYR
The softest, dreamiest fabric. Beautiful to lounge in or sleep in, these are great for the cooler months and are such a worthwhile upgrade. Try the short set version for summer!
Gisele TENCEL™ Modal Long PJ Set
The Tech
The tech upgrades that actually make everyday life easier. Useful, well-designed, and worth paying a little more for when the cheaper version just doesn’t cut it.
Part calendar, part command center, part chore and reward tracker… the skylight calendar does it all! And they’ve upgraded to a gorgeous new frame on the 15”. I love mine and can’t live without it!
Skylight Calendar 2 | 15" Touchscreen Digital
An oldie, but a goodie! I've had my watch for years now and love it! I love that it can track my workouts and reminds me to get moving when I've been still for too long. But maybe the best thing? It helps me find my phone when I've lost it for the mi...
Apple Watch SE 3 GPS 40mm Starlight Aluminum Case with Starlight Sport Band - S/M
Absolutely love this bag for my folders, notebooks and, of course, my laptop! Padded, wipeable, and with gorgeous gold details she’s perfect for carrying around your most important files. She can also be used with or without the strap and fits great ...

The Beauty Products
Beauty and skincare products that actually live up to the hype. These are the splurge-worthy formulas and everyday favorites I think are genuinely worth the money.
After using an eye mask for several years (and continuing to do so) my lashes were in bad shape. I turned to lash serums and tried A LOT. Got this one as a gift and haven't stopped buying it since. It just works.
Rodan and Fields Lash Boost Serum
Well worth the slightly higher price and so much better than your St. Ives scrubs! I originally got this one on a recommendation from a friend and it's been a holy grail product ever since. Makes my skin smoother and clearer!
Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2pct BHA Liquid Exfoliant
A little on the spendy side for foundation if you’re a drug store kind of girl, but so good. I use it in winter over a primer with spf and it keeps my skin so hydrated! I love that it feels like skincare, not makeup.
