Life Lately | January 2021

Coat: Mango (sold out, but here’s a similar one) | Hat: Adidas |  Denim: AGOLDE |  Uggs | On Sasha: Baby Uggs & Outfit via Zara (not recent)

Almost a full month into 2021 and I feel like I’m finally getting into a little groove. The beginning of the year started out a bit rough. Not just for me, but for the world and I found myself wanting to stay away from social media. As much as it’s a huge part of my job and I genuinely love many aspects of it, I was getting crazy anxiety by the stream of what I was ingesting.

I mentioned it on Instagram, but I started needing little mini breaks for the sake of myself and how I was showing up (in my day-to-day) as a mother and wife. That’s when I knew it was time to put my foot down, to take the breathers that I needed and to step away from any person or account that made me feel a certain way. This also meant muting (if it was someone I didn’t want to fully unfollow) or simply unfollowing many accounts.

I felt like I couldn’t jump into this post without bringing up the above, because well, it’s been on my mind. BUT, enough about that!

I’ve been excited to share some fun, random tidbits with you all.

Reading:

I made a promise to myself that in 2021, I’d resume reading. I barely read any books in 2020 and really missed it. The first book I started with was The Roommate and after not particularly enjoying it and giving up halfway through, I  decided to reread one of my all time favorites, The Idea of You. So good if you’re into a romance type genre.

Listening To:

If you’re into soulful R&B type music, I highly recommend the new Jazmine Sullivan. It takes me back to that late 90’s/early 2000’s feeling of music. It makes me want to hop in a car (and I don’t even drive), cruise around and just belt out loudly.

Lusting After:

I am completely lusting over the tech accessories from Cuyana. In particular, this leather laptop sleeve – so beautiful!

 

Coat: H&M (in a small) | Denim: H&M | Boots: Steve Madden | Belt: Isabel Marant (in a medium) | Bag: Janessa Leone (gifted) | Sunglasses: Celine

Some Recent Buys:

I got these Eberjay pajamas before the holidays and they’re so incredibly comfortable, I’m really resisting getting another color. They’re a bit pricier than I wanted to spend, but after wearing for almost two months, I think they’re worth it. I got them in a small and the fit is perfect. I got black, but they also come in navy and grey.

Another great find has been this coat from H&M. It comes in a beautiful navy (the color I got) and a beige. I posted it on Instagram and a few of you asked for a photo of me wearing it. I snapped some the other day, but just have to upload them! It looks so incredibly luxe and high end in person. I got it in a small and it’s a drop oversized, but in a nice way.
