Let me remind you of one of my favorite sayings, “If you’re going through hell, keep going!”
Of course we are taking all the necessary safety precautions, including getting covid tests before we go and return. I’ll unplug while we’re there, but will be sure to share the trip with you when we get back!
It feels like January flew by, we’re already at the end of the time and it’s time for January Rewind, a look at the top sellers of the month, and I’m giddy to announce this month’s Loves winner!
JANUARY TOP SELLERS
I always love seeing what y’all are interested in, and here’s what topped your list for January.
JANUARY FASHION FAVES
I’m not surprised this LOFT poncho was so popular! It comes in both red and white and is on sale + 60% off!
Y’all went crazy for this darling puff sleeve sweatshirt. It runs slightly small and also on sale.
Gotta love Target and their great weekend tunic sweatshirt. Really loving the longer length on this one.
All my preppy lovers were fans of this argyle sweater.
These skinny crop jeans have a raw edge hem and tummy taming super powers. They run large, so size down own.
This Heart Stripe Sweater is going fast, but there are still a couple sizes left. 50% off
This Plaid Button Down comes in three colors, but I liked the navy/pink combo.
Darling shorts pajama set and 60% off!
Crazy for this long sleeve top. It’s got stripes and buttons and only $15! Was $44!
It’s all about the Shacket lately. It runs a bit large, XXS would be my size. The XS was too big.
AMAZON FASHION FAVES
We all heart Amazon and I’ve found myself relying on their fast, free shipping now more than ever!
Leggings • Ponytail Hat • Skinny Belt • Tunic • Stripe Tee • High Rise Skinny Jeans • Crossbody • T-Shirt Dress • Sun Hat • Wide Leg Pants
These are the leggings I’ve been wearing daily to the gym and they’re great for all types of exercise. I run, spin, and lift weights in them!
A woman surely designed this Ponytail Hat!
This 4-pack of strechy, Skinny Belts has been a top seller for ages! I wear mine on repeat with jeans and over dresses.
This Tunic is a ‘Must Have’ for me. It’s the perfect lightweight top to throw on with jeans and leggings.
You can’t go wrong with a long sleeve Stripe Tee. This one has lots of stretch and looks great with a vest or jean jacket.
These are the High Rise Skinny Jeans I’ve been opting for most often lately. They are so dang comfortable and make you look LONG & LEAN!
There’s plenty of room in this Crossbody Bag and it comes in several colors.
The T-Shirt Dress can be worn so many ways, nearly year round, depending on your climate.
I’ll definitely be taking this Sun Hat to Mexico with me. It packs perfectly and looks so chic! Plus, it’s adjustable!
You’ll want to wear these Wide Leg Pants everyday. They look great for work with a blouse or sweater and pumps.
AMAZON HOME FAVES
I’ve found so many amazing things for my home on Amazon lately.
We packed up our ornaments in this handy Ornament Storage Box and used this Christmas tree bag to put away our tree until next time!
Speaking of trees, this darling little Olive Tree looks so cute in the kitchen. We also love those pretty tulips that look so real.
I guess we also like to clean in January because the Bissell Steam Mop, Folex Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner, and the Microwave Splatter Cover were all on your faves! I was also using the Magic Eraser a bunch! It even got all the dark scuff marks off of James’ white walls. We were about to do touch up paint, but after using the Magic Eraser, we didn’t have too! The walls look good as new!
I was happy to have fresh Kitchen Towels in the kitchen this year.
And lots of us needed a refresh on new pillows. I got two for James’ room and they came vacuum sealed, which always throws me off. I almost didn’t open them because by looking at them all deflated I thought, “there’s no way this will end up a fluffy pillow.” But, I opened them anyway (for research purposes alone) and to my surprise, they fluffed right up! No wonder they have over 15,000 4.5 star reviews on Amazon!
I’m so happy I decanted our cereal into these Cereal Containers. They keep the cereal fresher longer, and you can see exactly how much you have left.
Finally, this acrylic Jewelry Box has helped me keep my rings and earrings all nice and organized and dust free!
BEAUTY FAVES
Lisbon Wants Moor by OPI • Gelous Nail Gel • Cuticle Pusher • Complete Eye Cream • Retinol Supreme Night Oil • Supergoop Sunscreen • Charlotte Tilbury Concealer • Silk Scrunchies • Anastasia Soft Glam Eyeshadow • Crest White Strips • Marc Jacobs Eyeliner • Foot Mask
Lisbon Wants Moor by OPI • My current nail color of choice- a pretty, pale pink!
Gelous Nail Coat • Being quarantined with nail salons closed down forced lots of us to do our nails at home. This gel coat gives your nails a strong smooth surface to prep your nails for painting. See how I get a perfect gel manicure at home.
Cuticle Pusher • Pushing your cuticles back is one of the first steps to gorgeous looking nails. This is the one works really well.
Complete Eye Cream • This eye cream helps smooth wrinkles and fine lines, and offers skin plumping properties under eye circles, puffiness and loss of elasticity. It’s very gentle and a little goes a long way.
I still love and use the Face Oil No. 9 often, but the Retinol Supreme Night Oil has the added benefit of regenerating your skin with a highly potent vitamin C. Like I mentioned above, Vitamin C is important for boosting collagen production and repairing skin damage due to the environment and the sun.
Supergoop Sunscreen • This sunscreen is SPF 40- invisible, weightless and scentless. It’s formulated with antioxidants that prep your skin for makeup while providing broad-spectrum protection and protection from blue light, too. It has a velvety finish that doesn’t leave my skin feeling greasy or shiny. This sunscreen contains no phthalates, parabens, petrochemicals, mineral oil, silicone and talc; also free of oxybenzone, fragrances and oils.
Charlotte Tilbury Concealer • My daily concealer, perfect for more ‘mature’ skin that makes me look fresh and awake! I use shade 2 or 3.
Silk Scrunchies • These scrunchies are a dead ringer for the ones I’ve gotten before at Anthro. I wear them during my workouts and they don’t pull or break my hair.
Anastasia Soft Glam Eyeshadow • This pallet has all the nude and pinky shades to create a natural or more dramatic eye look. The shadows are highly pigmented and blend easily.
Crest Whitestrips • And we all want whiter teeth. Crest Whitestrips really work and the new version adheres to your teeth super well.
Marc Jacobs Eyeliner • What I love about it is that it’s a gel eyeliner, so it goes on super sleek with a light hand. I apply it on my upper lash line and it makes my lashes look even more dramatic. Then, I apply a short line under my eye, then smoke it out with a thin brush. It blends beautifully. And you don’t have to sharpen it; you just twist the end and more pops up. My first one lasted forever!
Foot Mask • We all love baby smooth feet and this mask gets you there without all the nasty peeling.
Four Drawers • Nail Polish Holder • Clear Cubes • Lipstick Holder • Rose Gold Containers • Multi Purpose Holder • Rotating Storage • Drawer Organizer • Compact Organizer • Clear Canisters • Makeup Organizer • Heat Safe Storage

My 2-Ingredient Cocktail for Dry Skin
Our typical hot and humid Houston weather has turned cold and dry and my skin isn’t used to it. I’ve noticed that my skin been much drier and flaky, especially at my cheeks and on forehead. It tends to feel tight in those areas too. Whenever I need a boost of hydration to my skin, I make a ‘cocktail’ with just two ingredients.
Extreme Recovery Cream • Face Oil No. 9

How to Meal Prep for the Week
If you’ve been here for awhile, you know that one of the ways I stay healthy and save time and energy is by prepping healthy meals each week. It doesn’t have to be a big, overwhelming thing. You simply pick a few meals to prepare, and cook them in bulk. Then, put them in individual grab and go containers that you can easily reheat when you’re ready to eat.
