I'm back with another Amazon Finds post for you today! It's been a while since I've featured some of my favorite Amazon buys so I'm excited to share this batch with you. You can see all my past Amazon Finds posts here if you want MORE. I've said it before but I'm pretty picky about Amazon finds so when I share something here know that I LOVE it and highly recommend it. I know it can be tough to wade through what's quality or not on Amazon and I hope this helps, even if it's just a little bit. Let's take a look at this month's finds...

fitness finds for less with Walmart!
This post is sponsored by Walmart and ShopStyle Collective. All opinions are my own.
Thank you for supporting the brands that support this blog.
I'm not much of a "new year, new me" type of person although I love the fresh start feel of the new year. It feels like fall in some ways when the kids go back to school, like everything gets a little restart. And while I don't make fitness goals ever for the new year, my motto is that there is honestly nothing better to do this time of year anyway - so why not get back into a workout routine or amp up your current workout routine?!?! January is such a blah month... might as well be doing something good for yourself!
New clothing for work outs ALWAYS puts some extra pep in my step and I found some really fun pieces from Walmart that I am loving for hitting the gym this winter! If you need to stock up on basics these joggers are a great material (not too thick, not too thin!) and if you want something new and fun try these ribbed leggings that are super comfortable and stretchy. Both this puffer coat and this fleece jacket are the perfect extra layer for to and from the gym or outdoor walks, errands or running around with the kids on an athleisure day. Getting to the gym in the winter is NOT easy... but you can at least look good (and save money) doing it with Walmart.
You always get FREE & FAST SHIPPING with Walmart on orders over $35 so it's always a great time to shop!

I'm slowly starting to think about my spring wardrobe even though we are very much in the depths of winter... but hey, I like to plan!

Now is the perfect time to start adding a few spring or warm weather travel pieces to your closet to prep for spring and Banana Republic Factory has a HUGE promotion going on this weekend!

my tips for cleaning out your closet!

on my radar: January 2023!
I just LOVE the fresh start of a new year... it's so cheesy, but I do. It gives me such a good reset mentally especially after a nice long break for the holidays. I'm excited for all that 2023 holds, but also... for the fun new clothes too! I'll be honest! I'm looking forward to spring styles, new trends and fun new inspiration and I love to find inspiration in clothing. Today I'm rounding up some new finds that are inspiring me this new year... I hope they inspire you too!
suede bucket bag, bucket style bags are going to be a big trend this year and I love a tote and a bucket bag is like half a tote ;) so I am really into this trend! This suede option is gorgeous!
striped sweater, the striped sweater had a big resurgence in popularity this past fall. It's always been a classic and this one is here to stay during the winter and into spring. It's so easy to wear!
black checked coat, winter has me craving all the beautiful coats! This tight check pattern is so chic and is giving off major 'cool French girl' vibes.
brown cotton ribbed sweater, new year, same me. I just LOVE a good sweater. Especially a cotton sweater lately. The fabric is seasonless and so easy and comfortable to wear.
split hem jeans, a fun take on the classic skinny jeans! These split hem jeans are SO fun! It's also another way to ease into longer hemlines, which will also be making a comeback this year. I love an ankle crop, but I'm open to trying new things too.
pebbled leather tote, this tote just screams "New Year" to me. Simple and streamlined, beautiful and practical. Everything I crave for my closet.
shearing lined Birkenstock clog, I might break down and buy these. I just love my Boston clogs so much and these would be perfect "house shoes" - and I would wear them out as long as there is no snow too!
straight leg jeans, these seem to be the style everyone is talking about these days. They have been in my cart for a few weeks!
heart bracelet, anything and everything with a heart, please. Especially near Valentines day!
sherpa toggle coat, I saw something similar on Shea from McGee & Co on her new Netflix show (it's so good and her outfit are SO good!) and I can't stop thinking about it. It's in my cart!

Happy New Year friends! It's been great to take an extended break here on the blog for the holidays but now I am rejuvenated and ready to jump back into posting here and all that 2023 has to offer! It's going to be a good year, I can feel it! We have some big changes and transitions coming up for our family this year and I'm excited for all the possibility in the New Year.
Today I'm rounding up alllllll the favorites from the previous year... from the most popular Amazon items I've featured to my favorite denim for the year, to your favorites (the bestsellers!) and finally some of my top picks for athleisure from the past year (which was a #1 reader request).
If you are looking to start the new year with adding some really great basics to your shopping cart, this will be a great post for inspiration. Since all of these are tried and true and vetted favorites!

amazon finds: December!
It's time for another Amazon round up... I try to do one of these a month to chat about recent Amazon finds. I'm super picky and not every find is a slam dunk for me, so I hope you can really trust these reviews because not everything makes the cut. You can find past Amazon finds here if you want to see past favorites. And if you are still shopping for loved ones... I have to say the insulated cup and the leggings here would make great gifts for so many on your list!
This month's finds....
The best white button front top I've found, ever. Crispy but comfy and perfectly oversized. I love it with jeans untucked or tucked and it would work as a swim cover up this summer too. I went with my usual size small.
This slip skirt. Great for parties or date nights it's a great style staple for your closet. I went with my true size small. It fits great and has a comfy elastic waist.
I was skeptical about these leggings that are touted as good as Lululemon or Athleta. But I've given them a really good test run and have owned them for 3 months and I do love them. Soft and stretchy and not super prone to attracting dog hair (IYKYK). I LOVE them. They are true to size, I ordered my usual size small in 25" length.
This insulated tumbler. It's $25, comes in a ton of colors and works just as good as YETI. Seriously! It comes with a straw top or a "coffee" style top. I'm obsessed. These would make great gifts too!
Honorable mention...
Kind of random, but I just bought this laundry detergent in Magnolia Bergamot Cedar and I'm in LOVE. The scent is very high end and nice and just a LITTLE goes a long way, which is great since we do a ton of laundry with teens.
Last month's bestsellers:
This boxy cotton sweater. I love it SO much and there are tons of color options. I went up a size to medium for a more oversized fit.
This oversized coin necklace. I get so many compliments on it and it looks designer-y for under $20.
These mules. They are comfortable. They are SO cute and they elevate any look. I've worn them to holiday parties, for date nights or just for everyday wear. They work with dresses OR jeans. Truly a wardrobe work horse.
This sweater has been a top seller for several months. It's soft (no itch!) and so chic and goes with everything. I went up a size to medium... you will not be disappointed in this cutie!

holiday pjs!
If you haven't snagged some holiday pjs yet, now is the time! They are selling fast. Christmas Eve isn't the same without a new pair of pjs in our family. From cozy plaids and sherpa robes to the classics like navy tipped poplin pjs, there is something here for everyone. Personally, I wouldn't mind one of each!

winter basics
When the weather turns cold and gloomy and I realized we are facing this for the next 5 months, I am always thankful for the solid basics in my closet. For the colder months I am always trying to strike that perfect balance between cute and warm... it's not always easy and there are definitely times when you just have to throw cute out the window! But I find that having warm coats, cozy soft sweaters and some great scarves and mittens help keep the cold at bay while hopefully looking presentable (except for dog walks, I usually look like the abominable snowman for those, cuteness is straight out the window!). Today I pulled together some really gorgeous basics that make facing the harsh winter days a little easier and more stylish! Hopefully...

holiday family memories with Shutterfly!
This post is sponsored by Shutterfly. All opinions are my own.
Thank you for supporting the brands that support this blog.
Creating our yearly Christmas card is one of my favorite holiday traditions. Some years we go super casual and just snap a quick family selfie and other years we go all out with a professional photographer. This year with limited time that the four of us all are together and available we went with a photoshoot somewhere in between by taking a tripod and my phone camera to the woods to get our 2022 holiday family photo. The point being: it can be fancy or not, but you will never regret taking the time to all be in one place at one time and to snap a photo to remember this year and this moment with your family. I have every Christmas card we have ever sent since my son was born (18 years ago!) and I just LOVE looking through them each year. They give me goosebumps and to be honest make me a little teary eyed. Some years it took major bribing to get the kids to smile and well, sometimes it still takes some bribing to get the teens to smile too! But it's always so worth it.
Today I am partnering with Shutterfly to share our families Christmas card for 2022. Shutterfly makes it easy (and fun!) to share your family memories from 2022 with all your friends and loved ones this season. The Shutterfly website is so easy to use - choose a holiday card design, upload your photos and voila!
