    I originally was just going to include this bandana because I thought it was cute. Upon further reading though, I noticed that it actually repels mosquitos, ticks and other bugs ya don’t want on you! How rad is that!?

    Because who doesn’t need more cute little storage containers to store tiny treasures in!?

    I’m just picturing this gorgeous quilted throw on my blue couch and ugh, soooo good!

    This reusable straw that rolls up into a tiny container you can attach to your keychain is the coolest.

    This sweater is so cute! I also just really love how happy the model looks.

    These earrings!

    Creature of the night!

    Love these jammies!

    I’ve featured this snake lamp time and time again. I want it so badly but I’ve just been waiting for the price to drop. Guess what – it happened! It’s down $20 from the original price.

    I wore one of my Sugarhill Boutique sweaters for the first time this season yesterday and I’m hooked all over again. They just fit really nice and who can resist a giant animal on their sweater!? I love this deer one.

    This sweatshirt!

    Gotta throw in one of my own items since it fits this week’s theme! This constellation boxy bag!

    Link love…

    • This isn’t being marketed as pajamas but I could definitely see myself getting all cozy in this jumpsuit.
    • Globe folks – this is easily one of the most affordable moon globes I’ve ever found online! And because once I start looking, I can’t stop I’m gonna share a few other globe finds… I love tin globes and this one is no exception. This one’s stand is just weird and I love it!
    • This calendar!
    • This lounge sweater looks so dang cozy.
    • I just love fun socks. Here are some kitty socks. More kitty socks. Oh, and even more kitty socks. (One last pair, these ones with a swear word.)
    • Love this vanity tray!

    Happy Friday! xoxo

    Ooof. This was an accident. A happy accident but an accident nonetheless! Originally I had half blue / half purple hair in mind. I bought the colors, dyed my hair, and yikes – you’ll just have to watch and see. Watch below + subscribe on YouTube! It turned out gorgeous in the end though, right?! …

    This post contains affiliate links. Check out our disclosure policy for more details. This dress! I have no idea when I’d ever wear it but there is just something about a sheer starry dress that gets me. These raccoon socks! Love this simple black dress. That back cut out adds so much. This bowl looks …
