January Favorites // 2021

January Favorites in February because why the hell not?! Better late than never. Here is what got me through the apocalyptic start to the new year.

Home

  • Mug warmer – I got a mug warmer for Christmas and WOW what a game changer. I don’t know why I didn’t get one sooner? I bought my mom a couple of mug warmers years ago – one for work and one for home and she LOVES them. This has been such an excellent addition since working from home – highly recommend. You can get them on Amazon (of course).

Organization

  • Passion Planner Daily – WOW I had no idea that a daily planner was what I needed in my life. My planner babes know – different seasons of life will require a different type of planner and for me, DAILY is where it’s at right now. I’ve used the weekly passion planner before and it just didn’t work out. I’ve also used a daily planner and that… fizzled out tragically. I’m like fuckin Goldilocks over here trying to choose a damn planner. I love Powersheets for monthly accountability toward my annual goals, and I love Danielle LaPorte’s Weekly Desire Map Planner for accountability toward my monthly goals. 🥴 Despite already having two planners, I was feeling incomplete UNTIL I stumbled across @PassionPlannerDaily over on Instagram. I actually had no idea they came out with a daily version but I fell in love as soon as I saw it. SO MUCH SPACE to write! I like my planner simple with tons of space to write – not super into decorating but if you’re a decorating kind of gal, there is plenty of space for that. Angela Trinidad (the founder) is incredibly generous and offers free downloads so you can try before you buy. There are also digital versions available if you are a digital planner babe. All in all, I highly recommend 🙌🏽

Creative

  • Elle’s Studio Grab Bags – in my December Daily 2020 Lessons Learned post I shared that I was on the fence regarding mystery grab bags. Well, I changed my mind 🙂 and I am absolutely blown away at the Elle’s Studio Grab Bags I purchased. I purchased these after I made that post and these were hands down my favorite grab bags thus far. These babies were well worth the money and just so freaking cute. I really enjoy their journaling cards and stamps in general so I think it’s just a matter of being intentional and purchasing mystery bags from your favorite crafty babes/other creators you’ve had your eye on to try out.

Music

What have you guys been listening to on repeat? What are all the cool jams? I’m STILL listening to Franchise (shock, horror!) on repeat, but I found some new/rediscovered old favorites as well. Here’s what got me through the coup, a 2nd impeachment, the INAUGURATION CELEBRATION, and the Reddit/GameStop/Wall Street war:

  • FRANCHISE – Travis Scott, Young Thug, M.I.A
  • Lemonade – Gucci Mane
  • Savage (Major Lazer Remix) – Megan Thee Stallion, Major Lazer
  • Tap In – Saweetie, Post Malone, DaBaby, & Jack Harlow
  • Captain Hook – Megan Thee Stallion
  • When I Grow Up – The Pussycat Dolls (I don’t know, cant explain it. Still love it)
  • Set It Off – Strafe
  • Sun Models – ODESZA, Madelyn Grant

Cheers to February!
