Finding this perfect sectional couch that was under $700 was a challenge! I had just moved into a new apartment and was definitely eating dinners on the floor. This was hands down one of the best purchases I’ve made! It’s so soft, fits into my space beautifully, and the BEST part is that it’s re-arrangeable! You can move one of the cushions and lay down on both sides which is perfect for movie nights with friends or your partner!
Obviously I needed a throw blanket to keep me warm and to get comfortable every night while I’m watching tv! This one is seriously SO soft and I love getting cozy under it after a long day!
When finding the perfect coffee table, I wanted it to be easy to clean, to have enough space for multiple plates/items, and to be able to sit and play board games and do any crafts. This coffee table checks all my boxes! It was easy and quick to assemble and is amazing quality!
Ambient lighting is incredibly important to me in order to create a cozy and relaxing space. When I moved into my apartment I only had one small lamp but it didn’t provide enough light. This floor lamp was the perfect purchase! It comes with a remote where you can change how warm you want the light and the dimness! It’s also great for when I want to cozy up with a book at night and a cup of tea!
4. My Work From Home Set Up
It has always been a dream of mine to have my own work space with a standing desk, monitor, keyboard, the whole set up. Now that I work remotely, I needed a workspace that made me feel productive and comfortable. My first purchase was this standing desk, and it was totally worth every penny! The color and sizing is perfect and the fact that I’m able to stand and work is key.
As a designer I also needed a monitor that showed colors, graphics, and small details with accuracy. After weeks of research I purchased this Dell Ultrasharp monitor! I love everything about this monitor, the quality is amazing and easily connects to my Macbook!
For my desk chair I didn’t feel the need to spend a whole lot but still wanted something comfortable and adjustable. This desk chair does everything I want it to!
Now onto accessories that complete my entire set up! This Logitech mouse is perfect for smaller hands, is ergonomic, and functions without any lag. It’s also a bonus that it lights up and you can adjust the colors! This keyboard is affordable and works as well as other higher priced ones! My mouse pad is sage green which I love and is a great size that fits my keyboard, mouse, and drinks! Last but not least is this Logitech monitor camera. As a remote worker I always have meetings which require a good quality camera and I love this one! It has a great built in microphone and also has a camera cover.
I’m an at night over thinker and prior to getting this white noise machine, I would struggle to fall asleep and stay asleep. It has been a game changer in my nightly routine! There are 14 soothing sounds (my favorite is the soft thunder), it’s easily adjustable, and has a small night light that turns on when you tap the top!
Prioritizing sleep is super important to me in order to have enough energy to get things done and to feel great overall. After moving into my apartment my bedroom window let in lots of light even through the blinds, so I decided to get these linen black out curtains! They make my room so cozy, cool, and dark while I sleep, which has done wonders for getting a quality nights sleep!
I’m a huge hobby girl so I wanted some place to store all of the things I love to do! This rolling cart is absolutely perfect for storing books, art supplies, notebooks, tape, pens, etc. It’s my favorite part of my room because I get to see all the activities I enjoy doing and can easily grab things off of it!
I have always wanted a set of aesthetic and comprehensive cooking utensils set that had everything I needed to make meals efficiently. This silicone set is awesome! It has all the basic tools and is fantastic quality. To hold them all, I love this rotating wooden utensil holder.
A reliable knife set that has everything you need to prep meals is super important for every kitchen. This stainless steel knife set is compact, high quality, and even has a built in sharpener!
After deciding to get more fiber in my diet, I needed containers to make overnight chia seed pudding. These glass jars have been incredible for just that, as well as overnight oats!
I love these mixing bowls especially for washing veggies and fruit, storing food in the fridge, and of course baking! They also come with lids which is a huge bonus!
I don’t know where these reusable bags have been all my life! After using plastic bags for so long, I got tired of having to throw them away each time which was so bad for the environment and not cost effective. I love that these come in multiple sizes for small items like tomatoes and larger ones like a bag of spinach!
One of the most useful tools I own is this hand held electric scrubber! I use this all over my apartment including the shower, sinks, stove, walls, and more! It’s cordless, rechargeable, has two speed settings, and 6 attachements, making it perfect for all spots!
14. Apple Watch Case + Band
After getting an apple watch passed down to me, it had a super uncomfortable silicone band and dark case, so I decided to upgrade! This case is beautiful and has a front and back cover for extra protection. This magnetic band is amazing! I didn’t want a bulky band that rubbed against my skin, so I love how it’s so slim and easily adjustable due to the magnet! If you’re curious, I have the Apple watch series 8 (45mm) which you can find refurbished for cheaper!
I hope you found a few new favorites to add to your cart! These are all products I genuinely use and love, and I’m so excited to share them with you. If you end up trying any of these finds, let me know—I’d love to hear what you think. Happy shopping!
