Somehow, the first month of 2021 has already come and gone. It was a million years long and incredibly short all at the same time!
I haven’t even taken a beat to reflect on all that’s happened in the last few weeks – personally, professionally, in the country and in the world! I feel like 2021 is honestly looking up and while we still have a ways to go before things start to feel “normal” again (what does that even mean at this point?!), I think knowing that help is on the horizon does make a world of difference.
All in all, it was a good month! And after the holidays, it did feel good to get back into my routine. I’ve taken the pressure off myself when it comes to this blog and my social media, and that’s turned it back into an outlet where I can share freely, create, write, and ultimately, just enjoy! So here are a few things I’ve been using and lovely lately that I think you might love, too.
Pressed Juicery Vanilla Almond Milk in Coffee – Ok I know this is a bit of a splurge, but you can usually find Pressed doing some kind of sale and when you do, please get their almond milk and put it in your coffee. It froths beautifully!
CORE Organic Overnight Oats Bars – I wasn’t sure what to expect from these since I hadn’t heard of them before, but I’m in LOVE. Super clean ingredients and perfect taste/texture. I love that they’re refrigerated because it means they’re fresher, and they even have probiotics!
Clio Snacks Chocolate-Covered Greek Yogurt Bars – I first tried these at Expo West two years ago and have literally been dreaming of them ever since. When I saw them at Costco I almost screamed – they’re the perfect lil treat and so freaking good!
Remedy Organics Shakes – I took these with me when I went to my tiny house and have been enjoying them on their own, blended into a smoothie with spinach and banana, and even with granola. The Blue Oxidants is my absolute favorite, but they’re all amazing and packed with superfoods.
Magnolia Bakery Cupcakes – In honor of the SATC reboot announcement, I treated myself to Magnolia Bakery and oh my WORD, I had forgotten how amazing it is!! Highly recommend the vanilla and red velvet, as well as the banana pudding (duh).
Poppi Prebiotic Soda – I can’t tell you how many times I’d seen big influencers talk about this stuff and I never knew what the hype was but then I tried it and now I’m obsessed. Top vote is for watermelon, served over ice in a wine glass (like in the bath pic below!).
Maria Nila Shampoo & Conditioner – I’ve been using this brand for almost 6 months now and while it’s a bit of a splurge, I swear it makes my hair softer!! I love that it’s vegan and cruelty-free, with an emphasis on sustainability.
Outdoor Voices All Day Sweatpants – Alex had originally gotten the matching top for this and I was absolutely obsessed, so when I saw that they were on sale, I had to have them. I swear these are the softest, most comfortable pants I’ve ever worn!
Tavi Noir High-Waisted Leggings (pictured way up top!) – These are officially in my top 3 pairs of leggings! Unbelievably soft and they hold you in without being too tight or uncomfortable!
Here’s to a great new month ahead!
