My favourite purchases from 2017

I always love doing a closet clean out to start the new year off – it’s such a great feeling. It also serves as a great reminder of what I actually do need verse want and is a great reminder of what products or items I’m still loving. I thought I’d round up my all-time favourite purchases of 2017 – products I fully plan on re-wearing or re-using all through this year. 

J. Crew Pyjamas: I have a serious problem when it comes to pyjamas. They have to be the right length, fit and of course – need to be cute. While I normally adore Aerie for all things comfortable, these striped pj’s not only checked the box on cute but are soooo cozy for Sunday morning lounging. I got the grey pair but have been eying the navy as well. 

Julie Vos Soho Bangles: I am a Julie Vos nut. From their rings to bracelets and necklaces – I just adore their style and aesthetic. I wear 3 of these bracelets every.single.day. and I’m obsessed! I also love how the product doesn’t tarnish. 

Better than Sex Mascara: I discovered this product in 2017 and am going on my 9th or 10th bottle. I have pathetic lashes that never want to play ball when it comes to being curled and this does the trick. I’ll be honest, the wand does clump sooner than most brands but I love the effect I get from it. 

Boho Blouse: I bought this shirt for Hawaii in 2017 and fell in love with the fit. I adore it with high-waisted jean shorts or denim and the ruffle tiers on the shirt make for a cute boho effect. 

Baublebar Fringe Earrings: 2017 was definitely the year of the statement earring and these were no exception. I have them in pink, red, plum and navy and have my eye on more. I just love what they do for a blah outfit. 

Amika Curling Set: One of the most popular questions I get is about my hair and what tools I use. I use this curling set from Amika at least 2x a week – if not more. I get the perfect beach waves from it and love that my hair sets for 3-4 days with no touch ups required. 

Bric’s Luggage Set: My luggage situation FINALLY got an upgrade with this roller set and I adore it. The colours and shape are so chic and this set always turns heads in the airport. 

Maddy Mule: I actually bought the loafer style in these shoes last year but HAD to have the mule when it launched in 2017. I still wear these around the office or to meetings frequently – who can say no to pink and an oversized bow?!

Current/Elliott Stiletto Jeans: It wouldn’t be a roundup without jeans. Our agency is quite casual most of the week so I’ve been trying to find great styles that work with my shape. After hearing so many great things about this pair I had to give them a try and I love them! Sizing is TTS! 

Clare Vivier Snow Leopard Pouch: I’ll admit it – I have a serious problem when it comes to animal prints. I already have the classic foldover from Clare V. but this new and improved print was brighter and worked great with a ton of summer outfits. 

Le Creuset Dutch Oven: Ok silly yes but apparently I’m decades behind everyone else and we finally added this work horse to our kitchen. From soups to stews and roasting chickens – I’m obsessed! 

Sonix Avalon Sunglasses: As many of you have likely heard my rants, I have a massive head. So with big heads come even larger sunglasses and these fit the bill just perfect! I love that they have a designer flare to them without the pricetag!
