my monthly faves: october edition
how it it already november?! it feels like i blinked & we jumped from summer to the holidays, especially after we had a crazy snow last weekend in denver! here are my October favorite things—can you tell i’m into all things cozy & the color brown rn??? lol
be on the lookout for my yearly gift guides coming later this month 🎄
1 / abercrombie tee
are you tired of me talking about this tee yet??? sorry, it’s just *the ideal t-shirt* 🤷♀️ we all remember when aerie tees had their moment in the last few years, but this tee from abercrombie tops them ALL. it’s the *perfect* thickness, & truly the softest shirt i’ve ever put on my body. immediately order 5 & share them with your boo 😘 i own 10 now 🤣
2 / neutral magnatiles
i never really gave much thought to magnatiles until my pal found these neutral ones on amazon & i decided to give them a shot…& quicklyyyy they became the favorite toy in our house! Foster literally wakes up & goes to sleep asking to play with magnatiles, & we both love that they’re so easy & sooo satisfying to clean up. all her pals love them too!
3 / jolie shower head
my friend audrey is an integrative health practitioner who talks a ton about the importance of using filtered water for showering, so i grabbed this jolie filtered shower head & haven’t looked back! i’ve noticed a difference in my hair & skin since the switch - my hair is softer & less tangled (BIG deal for my rat’s nest self), & my skin is smoother & less dry too!
4 / toddler smocked dress
Fostie is a girlie girl through & through, so toddlerhood has been so full of dresses, dress up clothes & jewelry. i can only handle SO much of her princess dresses so this adorable one from amazon is in the rotation at least once a week. it looks like it’s from one of the fancy-kid-brands but at a v affordable price!
5 / high roller jumpsuit
y’all know my love for jumpsuits runs deeeep, & this one is amazing for fall. perfect for a long sleeve (or abercrombie tee…) underneath, so roomy & comfy! i wore it through pregnancy! i love a lot of the colors but chocolate brown is having a moment & i am very here for it.
6 / good night lotion
you already know i love my magnesium drink at bedtime, but i also have been loving this magnesium lotion to help support deep sleep. i put some on Ziggy’s legs & tummy the other night before bed, & she slept the best she ever has. soooo if you want a way to support your own sleep AND your baby’s…grab this! (code ABIGAIL10 to get 10% off!)
7 / portable charger
i bought this charger, & then promptly purchased another because it’s so amazing. i love that you don’t need an extra cord to charge it, it’s so lightweight, comes with 3 built in cords, & it charges so fast!
8 / boucle beanie
it’s BEANIE SZN BBS!!!! urban outfitters & target are my fave places for beanies & this one is my first pick of this season. perfectly cozy & looks good on my big head 😝
9 / quilted bag
my mary poppins bag! i loooove how roomy this bag is - it’s the perfect everyday diaper bag/purse/catchall. plus it still looks cute & not like a diaper bag 😉
10 / glass simmer pot
on of my favorite things to make my house feel so cozy in the fall & winter is to set a simmer pot on the stove. it’s basically like the warm version of a diffuser - i love to add some combo of orange/lemon slices, cinnamon sticks, & other whole spices (cloves, nutmeg, star anise!), vanilla extract & a few drops of essential oils (like tangerine, or rosemary). cover everything with water, bring to a boil & then turn down to simmer. it will make your house smell good for HOURS. keep an eye on the water level & just add more in as needed! & this clear glass (ribbed!) pot is *perfect* to make it in. (but you can also just make regular food in it too haha)
k that’s itttt! if you wanna follow along during the month, i add links to an instagram highlight each day - here’s the october links one!
