Hello, friends! These are some things that I’m loving these days, and of course wanted to share with you…

A New Leopard Sweater

I posted this on my Instagram already, and have gotten so many questions about it, I had to share this awesome find! I went into Target to get a kid’s birthday gift last week and came out with this $20 adorable leopard sweater! I’ve already worn it twice in under a week–once with black pants and once with jeans, and it’s equally cute dressed up or down.

I didn’t know they have it in green, too (!!!), and at only $12–yes, I said $12–I think I am going to have to buy that one as well!

In this pic I paired it with these jeans, which are on sale for $34 right now! I’ve gotten a ton of wear out of them since having the baby, since they have the perfect amount of stretch.

Shop It:

!function(doc,s,id){ var e, p, cb; if(!doc.getElementById(id)) { e = doc.createElement(s); e.id = id; cb = new Date().getTime().toString(); p = ‘//shopsensewidget.shopstyle.com/widget-script.js?cb=1513130279126?cb=’ + cb; e.src = p; doc.body.appendChild(e); } if(typeof window.ss_shopsense === ‘object’){ if(doc.readyState === ‘complete’){ window.ss_shopsense.init(); } } }(document, ‘script’, ‘shopsensewidget-script’);

Baby Driver

I am not typically a fan of action movies, but I was coaxed into watching this movie this weekend by my husband, and I have to say, I kinda loved it.

Allow me to put on my Roger Ebert [R.I.P.] Hat for a second: Ansel Elgort plays a sensitive and musically-inclined young man who ends up with a dangerous driving job where he chauffeurs–or rather, speeds recklessly throughout metro areas–violent robbers; and when love walks in it turns his world upside down.

Okay, so clearly I have some work to do in the becoming-a-movie-reviewer department, but just trust me, it’s good!

Essential Oil Diffuser

With colds going around among the kids like they’re going out of style (oh man I wish they would actually go out of style or at least somewhere far far far from my house), this has been a much-used item not only in the kids’ bedrooms lately, but also in ours.

I diffuse 5-7 drops of ArtNaturals Signature Zen blend, plop it down next to the bed and let it run all night. It’s super calming and leaves the room smelling beautiful. I seriously feel like I’m in a spa when it’s on!

Currently using this one, but this style would look beautiful sitting out in any bedroom too.

The Best Damn Dark Chocolate

With the holiday season in full swing, binge sugar eating is BACK in a big way, my friends. And I am welcoming it with open arms… or an open mouth, more accurately. 😀

I literally buy this stuff in crates of ten, which should tell you something about how awesome it is. (Read: Super awesome.)

And yes, I have tried almost every other brand of super dark chocolate on the market, so I speak from experience.

Enjoy! What are some things you’re loving lately? I’d love to hear from you!
