I have been obsessed with shopping lately. I know, I know, I was already obsessed but I feel like I am even more that I am spending more time at home. Seeing a package at my door makes me giddy like a little girl on her birthday! It’s a present I’ve been patiently waiting for all year or maybe just a week.
There has also been some great sales I have been able to take advantage of! I found a number of things at Old Navy and Gap. I loved everything I got so it makes me want to buy more and the cycle starts all over again.

I am also transitioning into my closet which absolutely calls for an update in my closet, right? I am now living near the beach and want to strut in a new swimsuit every time we hit the sand. And some new jean shorts and cute tank tops are calling my name.
But it’s not only clothes, I am looking at creating an office space to work in. What I have right now is functional but very minimal. I have a small patio table and chairs to work at. My mirror and a small shelf to do my make up at. Another small shelf to hold my printer and pens. And in the corner sits my tv on a tote. It’s functional but very pitiful.
I dream of putting two shelves on either side of the window with a big four person table in the middle so my husband and I can work together in the same space. Or I can spread out all my clutter because it’s what is going to happen anyway. I would also like an actual tv stand for my television to sit on.
It doesn’t sound like much but it adds up. So I think I will slowly save. But I would love to get my kitchen table back since that is what my husband uses as a desk. We are also slowly decorating our bedroom. Moving from a small one bedroom apartment to a three bedroom house requires some mula to fill it up with stuff.
I have to take what I can get because we are all on a budget, right? Shopping the clearances and finding duplicates at a cheaper price is what I live for when I am shopping. Below are my favorites from Amazon that are all under $25!

Most used is definitely my Kate Spade Tumbler. It goes with me everywhere. I need to buy like three more of them. It is my favorite because they keep things cold and stuff out. I am outside a lot or on the beach and nothing ever gets in. It is very beach friendly!!
Both the towel headbands and the blue light glasses are apart of my daily routine. I use the headbands in the morning and night to keep my hair back when I am cleaning my face or putting my makeup on. They are also super cute and incredibly soft! The blue light glasses I use when I am working because I am staring at a screen for a long time. They definitely help with headaches and sleeping better at night.
The black studded sandals are Valentino Garavani Rockstud Jelly Thong dupes and are so good! I love slipping them on with any outfit because they are a great way to spice up and outfit and add a little flare.
I am reading both of these books right now and am loving them. Anxious For Nothing has come at a perfect time. With the world in an uncomfortable spot I have been able to use this book as a reminder that God’s plans are bigger than my fears. Where the Crowdads Sing is a book that I can not stop listening to. I have it on audible when I work out and it drives me to go for run just to keep listening.
