These are the everyday purse essentials I never leave the house without. I love keeping things simple, organized, and ready for whatever the day brings, so I gathered all my must have items that make life a little easier. From on the go beauty touches to practical helpers for kids and moms, these are the small things that truly make a big difference. Add them to your bag and you will always feel prepared and put together.

Traveling is so much easier when you have the right essentials packed and ready. I put together my favorite travel must haves that help keep everything organized, clean, comfortable, and stress free. These are the items I use every single trip because they truly make a difference, whether we are flying, road tripping, or heading out for a quick weekend away. From smart organizers to cozy comfort items, these are my tried and true travel favorites.

When the weather turns chilly, nothing beats snuggling up with cozy essentials that warm your heart and soul. I created this Cozy Brr Basket filled with my favorite soft blankets, warm socks, comforting teas, and little treats that make cold days feel special. Whether you want to relax after a long day or curl up with a good book, these items bring that perfect cozy vibe to your home. This basket also makes a wonderful gift for friends or family who love all things cozy.

My 9-year-old daughter and I put this list together to help anyone searching for fun, thoughtful, and actually useful gift ideas for pre-teen girls. We went through all her favorites, from creative activities to cozy must-haves to the little things that make her feel grown-up in the best way. If you're shopping for a girl around this age and want ideas she’ll genuinely be excited about, this list is full of her top picks and our shared recommendations. Feel free to ask questions or let us know if you try any of these gifts. We had so much fun putting this together and hope it helps make your holiday shopping easier

I’m a huge reader, and 2025 has been an absolute blast of a reading year for me. I’ve devoured everything from twisty thrillers to heart-melting romances to those can’t-put-down literary gems, and I love nothing more than recommending the books that truly stuck with me. This list is a roundup of my favorite reads of 2025: the stories that made me think, made me gasp, made me stay up way too late, and made me immediately text friends “you have to read this.” Whether you're a fellow bookworm, a casual reader looking for your next binge-worthy pick, or someone trying to get back into reading, I hope you find something here that becomes a new favorite. Feel free to ask me anything or tell me if you end up picking up one of these. I love hearing what you think
