When I shared a question box on my Instagram a couple of weeks ago asking what you'd like to see from me this year, so many of you asked for more day in thee life content, and more blog posts! It made me so happy to see that many of you mentioned loving my old blog posts; if you're new, I started this blog in 2012 and it's truly been such a fun experience to grow up capturing so many moments, big and small, throughout my life here. I'd love to bring back blog posts going forward; I know I share the mood boards on here every month and gift guides throughout the year, but I'm going to make it a goal to share at least one blog post a month in addition to the moodboard, whether it be a travel recap, roundup of what I'm currently loving, or a general life update. I hope you find this fun, entertaining, inspiring, or interesting in any way. If anything, it will definitely be a nice way for me to start capturing my life the way I once loved so much, for me.
As I write this, I'm cozy in bed with this salt & stone candle lit, and this 432 Hz Frequency playlist going, so I thought we'd kick things off with just a big update on everything I'm currently loving for nighttime!
Somehow a week or two I stumbled upon this 432 Hz Frequency playlist and it's so peaceful. I listen to jazz every morning when I check emails or drink my coffee, and I'm usually on calls or listening to music or a podcast throughout the day, so ending my night with an elevated form of silence is so soothing to my brain. It almost feels like a massage for my brain, I don't know how to explain it, just so peaceful and relaxing. What's the opposite of overstimulated? At peace? That's how it makes me feel I guess, highly recommend!
While we're talking bedtime, I guess I'll just work my way backwards from nighttime to morning regarding my fave things! I continue to love my long short Lake pajamas sets; I'm wearing a pair now! I love this cutie print for Valentine's Day. Similarly, I love my chic new valentine's toothbrush from Trask - it's a fabulous feeling using such a chic toothbrush!
For nighttime skincare, I continue to love and use this retinol and this moisturizer, both of which I've been gifted but have also repurchased on my own. I absolutely love both of these products; the retinol did not irritate my skin at all and really made a difference in brightening and smoothing my skin. As for the moisturizer, I just ran out of my fourth? fifth? jar! It's a creamy, thick moisturizer that feels hydrating and cooling and smells absolutely delightful. I just love it!
I'm also absolutely obsessed with my new embroidered pillowcase that says "The Penthouse," aka our nickname for our apartment. Speaking of our apartment, I just purchased this wallpaper that I'm beyond excited to put up in our bathroom when I get back from skiing next weekend!
It's going to be a big ski season for me; from Telluride to Montreal to Aspen, and likely back to Vermont, I'm so excited for some fun ski trips this season! I received my first ever pair of skis & boots for Christmas, which is very exciting. I am looking forward to skiing on them for the first time this weekend!
Back to my nighttime routine - I've been trying to read before bed; I just finished Here One Moment. It was good, but I wasn't obsessed. My favorite book I've read recently was First Lie Wins, and I am currently reading The Guest List. I continue to love, love, love my Kindle. Any book recs I need to add to my list??
I'll leave you with this - I didn't do much this past weekend so I started, and got all caught up to the latest episode of, Severance!!! So. Good. Joe and I stayed up so late watching it on Saturdy night; we are completely hooked, highly recommend!
xoxo
