When it comes to adorning my home or closet, nothing thrills me more than the hunt for beautiful finds that are unique and thoughtfully designed by small businesses and artists.

Pampered Pairings: Cozy up with These Fall Favorites
Autumn has arrived—meaning the cozy season can officially commence. I’m big on themes and have a running list of favorite shows and movies perfect for fall that I’ve narrowed down to five. Each of these prized picks deserves an elevated experience—whether it be a nighttime screening or a lazy start to Saturday morning. You’ll also find curated companion items—from a comfy ChappyWrap and pajama set to flavorful blends and a needlepoint project that’ll make the pampering sesh even cozier. Peruse the lineup and see which category speaks to you.
Little Luxuries for a Cozy Summer Night In
This summer, I’m trading in FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) for JOSI (Joy of Staying In). The older I get, the more I find myself openly embracing homebody energy. When it comes to pampering, you don’t have to check into a spa or install an in-home sauna—although both sound marvelous. Intentionally incorporating a few daily wellness practices or little luxuries that bring you joy at home go a long way in maintaining peace and your overall wellbeing. A delightful page-turner, pajama set, cozy blanket, and sophisticated sipper are just a few of my key ingredients for a summer night in. And, if the night just so happens to be on theme, it’s all the better. Take a peek at my themed pampering sessions below and determine which one is calling your name!
