Lately In My Amazon Cart

Amazon Hauls· Life· Style

Anyone else take advantage of their Amazon Prime Membership possibly too much?

If there’s two places where I can blow my whole paycheck without thinking, it’s Target and Amazon. Unfortunately, there is not a Target super close to my apartment anymore (I mean it’s like 25 minutes, so I just don’t go to kill time or for whatever now), so it seems like my bank statement is often dominated by Amazon purchases.

Okay, I may be over-exaggerating a bit (I DON’T HAVE A SPENDING PROBLEM OKAY?!), but I really do love the convenience and how you can find literally anything.

I figured I would share some of my recent purchases that I have loved!

1. L’Oreal Paris Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara

I have tried a billion types of mascara. One of my all-time favorites is “They’re Real” from Benefit. Amazing brush. Amazing formula. I just don’t like spending $24 on mascara.

Therefore, I am forever on the hunt for a dupe! This is my favorite so far. Really good formula that doesn’t flake and lasts all day. Brush isn’t exactly like Benefit’s but I actually really like this one! But the brush is softer than Benefit’s; however, you get similar results!

Get it for under $10

2. Rockland Carry-On Luggage

Remember the days when your first checked bag was free on your flight? Now it’s around $25 per bag, so when Garrett and I went to Mexico last month, we were more interested in spending $100 on an excursion rather than our checked bags. We both needed new luggage anyway, so I got us these carry-on size bags and they are actually very roomy. Relatively inexpensive, but they have held up really well so far!

Get it for around $40-50

(Note Lola’s side eye because she knows when I pull these out that we are leaving her and she HATES it haha)

3. CUPSHE Quiet Elegance One Piece

In case you haven’t already gotten the memo. One-pieces are in this season. I’m a super big fan of this one from CupShe. I’m wearing a size small for reference.

It’s SUPER flattering because of the tie in the front, but you could also tie it in the back to mix it up. But fair warning, it may not be for you if you have a larger chest!

Get it for under $30

4. Enso Silicone Ring

Silicone rings have been super popular lately. I first started seeing a lot of people wearing them at the gym, but when I started working at the hospital, I noticed that everyone was wearing them. For a long time, I wore my wedding band and engagement ring, but then one day after working with some particularly sick people, I thought about what germs may be living around my diamond. I haven’t worn my rings to work since haha

This silicone band is cute, comfortable, and easy to clean.

Mine is in the color pink sand. Get it for under $15.

 

What’s your favorite things on Amazon lately? Feel free to tempt me with your purchases 🙂

BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 2 🌙🏙️ The lesson of the day: BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 2 🌙🏙️
The lesson of the day: drink lots of water when touristing around NY or else you might nearly pass out on the subway which will give you a big fright when pregnant 🤪

Some highlights of the day:
📍Win Son Bakery: the scallion pancake BEC is *chefs kiss*
📍Feste: super cute gift store in SoHo 
📍Central Park and The Met: duh
📍& Sons Steakeasy: before 7 pm they have an “adult happy meal” deal with a burger, the tastiest shoestring fries, and a martini— I got their French dip which was SO good
📍Pasticceria Rocco: the tiramisu and cheesecake were ok, but the cannoli was worth stopping for!

BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 1 🌙🏙️🍕 Some highlights of th BABYMOON IN NYC: DAY 1 🌙🏙️🍕

Some highlights of the day:
📍Ole & Steen: a danish bakery with a few locations; their cinnamon social pastry was really tasty and their turkey sausage, egg, and cheese on a focaccia roll was honestly so good!
📍Met Cloisters: depending on where you are staying, this may be a hike to get to, but it wasn’t nearly as crowded and overwhelming as the Met in UES and the gardens were so beautiful 
📍Casey Rubber Stamps: old-school rubber stamps with a huge catalogue to choose from— or you can order a custom stamp!!
📍Veniero’s Pastry: this cannoli was so good— wish I had tried more things because the cheesecake looked phenomenal 
📍MoMA Gift Shop: you don’t have to go through the museum and have a ticket to go in— they have a lot of unique gifts and souvenirs worth checking out!
📍Pasta de Pasta: fast casual homemade pasta tossed in a cheese wheel— only around $9-15 per serving

We both got the BEC which had the CRISPIEST bacon, egg, and havarti cheese and it came with their ginger deluxe sauce. I NEED to figure out the recipe to recreate the sauce because it was amazing 🥲

After having GD with my first pregnancy, I am SO relieved to not have to check blood sugars and be monitoring this time around— however, I’m still being mindful and conscious of my carbs, because I do think it’s better for me and baby (but I’m not being quite so restrictive now!!)

I recommend priming your sheets of plywood FIRST, then tracing your outline of the characters and then cutting them out! It makes it easier to see the image if you’re using a projector, and then it’s also easier to see your outline when you start painting!

DIY FELT BIRTHDAY CROWN 🎉🥳🥹 I made two of these th DIY FELT BIRTHDAY CROWN 🎉🥳🥹
I made two of these this year, one for my dad for his 80th (lol) and another for my toddler! I thought it was super a cute keepsake, and not very difficult, so I’m definitely going to keep making these for kid’s birthdays! 🥹 #birthdaycrown #keepsakegifts #birthdaytradition #slowliving #toddlermom
DIY “Terracotta” Pumpkins 🎃 I love the look of th DIY “Terracotta” Pumpkins 🎃 
I love the look of the terracotta pumpkins, but knew I could DIY it for less 😌
Just mix up some baking soda into paint until it forms a gritty paste and apply a couple of coats to a cheap plastic pumpkin. On your last coat while it’s still a LITTLE wet, sprinkle on some additional baking soda and dust it around with a paint brush. #falldecorations #diyhalloween #halloweendecorations
