Here are last week’s items that you ordered and clicked on the most. I will round them up every Sunday to showcase items and products that you all love!
I had already talked about this amazing Amazon find in a vlog, but I wanted to give you guys a closer look at it as well!
I have the Louis Vuitton Speedy 30 – got it years ago, but it was never a practical bag because unlike the Speedy B, it does not have a strap. So, it makes using both hands while shopping or running errands a bit challenging!
Now, I did tons of research on this years ago, trying to see if it was a good idea and if would I damage my purse. Some recommended it, and others did not.
I also couldn’t justify spending hundreds of dollars on a Louis Vuitton purse strap.
But after watching Now You Glow (a seller of pre-loved designer items) on Instagram live, I was sold on finally giving this type of purse strap a try!
Thanks to her, I learned about the idea of attaching a non-LV strap to my LV purse! I googled ‘purse strap’ on Amazon and came across this one!
I got the dark brown color and it’s a perfect match!
The strap also comes in different colors, so you can definitely have fun with it too!
I’m so glad I finally got a strap for my Speedy – it’s a more practical purse now!

Working in the TV news industry has definitely filled my closet with plenty of work dresses. The majority of them come from Amazon.
It took me a while to get comfortable shopping for clothes on Amazon. I was worried about sizing, the hassle of returns or exchanges, and getting the wrong item all together!
If you share the same concerns, worry no more! I’m happy to say I’ve only gotten the wrong item ONCE in all my years of dress shopping on Amazon. I ordered a dress and got red pants.. what?!
As for getting the same item I ordered, but having it look completely off.. that’s happened once as well.
All of the dresses I’ve ordered are soft and actually comfortable – I hate when dresses are itchy, so I’m glad Amazon has been a good shopping outlet – and the prices are great!
Because I’m petite, nearly half of my dresses have to be taken in to get hemmed. So, be aware that may need to be done if you are also petite.
Now that I’m out of the news business, I don’t really have to buy any new work dress for a long while. I can wear a new dress every day for more than two weeks! Maybe even three weeks, but I’m not counting, lol!
These are dresses I’ll definitely keep for a long time – and they stay in great condition because I ONLY wear them for work or special occasions/events.
Check out my video where I try on all my Amazon work dresses. I’ll have links to each dress below the video too!
Happy weekend! This week’s YouTube video is a little all over the place. It’s a mix of a vlog with a few finds from Etsy and Amazon, along with a mini what’s in my bag video!
Here’s a little run through of some of the new things I got!
From Etsy
YSL-inspired sweater – As you’ll see in my vlog, it’s extremely comfy! I’m wearing a size medium for a loose and oversized fit.
I mention my new kitchen table in my vlog – It’s from Hekman, but I’m not able to link the chairs. I am however, able to link the table. It’s the perfect fit and I love the neutral color.
From Amazon:
Makeup brushes – This is even cheaper than I thought, under $10 for 14 brushes! I’ve been using the same makeup brushes for years, it was definitely time for an upgrade.
Bag/purse strap – This is my alternative solution to making my Louis Vuitton Speedy more like a Speedy B! It’s way more cost-effective at around $12, compared to buying a whole new LV purse. I got the dark brown color, which is a perfect match to my purse.
Blue Screen Glasses – These make a huge difference in my sinus headaches. You’ll see in my vlog how I had to order a new pair, so I went for these >> Quay Blue Screen Glasses. If you still don’t have a pair of blue screen glasses, you should strongly consider them, especially if you do a lot of work on your phone or computer.
Amazon Chest – I didn’t actually talk about this in my vlog, but while I was editing, I noticed you get good a shot of this chest in my office. I think it’s so cute and it was definitely a lot easier to put together than Ikea furniture.
Looking for a smaller Yeti cup? I feel like everyone has the biggest one, but I wanted something smaller. I show you a light pink one in my vlog, but I kind of want to get this color too.

Okay, I know what you’re thinking.. PJs for Valentine’s Day? Well, we are in the middle of a global pandemic, so why not?!
Don’t worry, I’ve got date night outfit ideas too! But, I thought it’d be good to start with some comfy PJs from Target. I mentioned this on my Instagram, and YouTube channel, but I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to finally make the move to Target’s PJ sets! They’re soft and extremely comfortable. And the sets.. come as a real set, not sold separately.
My favorites are this short and shirt set, and this latest set I got is the same version in pink, with pants! Well, they’re cropped pants, but totally look like regular pants on me, haha!

Not sure what the restaurant scene is like where you’re at, but here in Montana, we can still dine in – socially distant of course.
Here are some of my favorite date night outfits:
The top comes from one of my favorite online boutiques, Rosie Daze Boutique. I’m wearing a size small. I think it’s such a cute top that easily makes you feel dressed up, but not over the top! I like this look paired with beige heels.

This next outfit also comes from Rosie Daze Boutique. I love the blush pink romper paired with this denim jacket from Target. I feel like it gives the look a more casual vibe. To complete the look, I’ve also paired this look with beige heels.

This next outfit was actually one of my holiday outfit options. It’s these sequin joggers from Express. I’m so glad I got these because I knew I’d be able to wear them for multiple occasions! Plus, they’re comfy.

Feeling like a casual outfit, but not PJs? Check out this top from Target – it’s soft, but for daytime wear – perfect. I have it in two colors: mauve and white. I wear them with leggings or jeans. I also like to tie the front to give it a more fitted look.

Looking for some accessories? Look no further, check out these machine washable options from Rothy’s!
I love the Mini Handbag in Candy Apple Red paired with the Berry Pointed Toe Flats – it’s a total V-Day look. Not sure how they’re machine washable? Check out my video all about it.
I hope this blog post gave you some ideas for Valentine’s Day date night outfits, or just for regular day wear. Can’t decide? I like to buy pieces that serve multiple purposes – like my Express sequin joggers! I can wear them for multiple occasions. Or I’d wear some of these for a girls nights out, or any night out really!
Comment below and let me know which outfit is your favorite!
