It’s FRI-YAY everyone! The weekend is here and you know what that means?! I’m sharing some favorites with you. It’s been about a month since I shared a favorites post, so I guess I’m overdue. I’ve had quite a few topics to share this month so I’ve been holding off on sharing my faves.
Now, without further adieu, I am linking up today to share some of my RANDOM recent favorite things with you.
Favorite #1
The pillow struggle is a real struggle in our house and I have had to ask the hubs to quite buying new (and expensive) pillows many a time. I try to just use what we have which is a closet full of 17 pillows, not including the eight on the guest beds upstairs. Have I mentioned we have too many pillows?
So we’ve dabbled with regular pillows, down pillows, memory foam pillows, cooling memory foam pillows, and the “My Pillow” all in varying shapes and sizes.
Then, a social media ad caught my attention. The Sutera Dream pillow is just that…A DREAM. It only has 4 star reviews on Amazon which surprises me because I would give it 10 stars. I’ve been using it for almost a month now and I have not had ANY neck pain when I wake up. I cannot tell you how often I did before and would complain to the hubs every morning.
If the pillow is too firm and my neck is shifted upwardly. If the pillow is too soft and my face smooshes into the pillow and I have to use an arm to support my neck. If the pillow is too flat then I have to use two overlapping pillows.
Incomes the Sutera Dream pillow and my world has been changed. My neck fits comfortably in the nook and I feel weightless between my pillow and the memory foam bed. I struggle to want to move in the mornings because I am SO comfortable. There are wedges on the sides where you hands/arms can go when you sleep on your side or stomach. The most curious of things for me though is that I am sleeping on my back more frequently now and am loving it. #hellolesswrinkles!
Give it a try, I suspect you will not regret this one. Sweet dreams!

I ordered a bunch of skirts recently from Amazon that are perfect for fall. Actually, a couple of them are pretty perfect year round.
This one is soooooooo soft, it feels like butter on my skin. I followed the reviews and sized up one and it is perfect. The tie/belt can be worn or taken off as it is not attached to the skirt. The buttons are faux so there’s no open gapping when you sit. There is a side zipper, too. It comes in six colors.
Imagine it with boots, heels, booties, flats, mules, wedges, sandals…you can’t go wrong!

Speaking of those Amazon skirts I mentioned above, this one is a favorite! I ordered it in black and camel. I sized up one based on the reviews and it was perfect. It’s a hint loose, but I suspect the smaller size would have been too small. It has some stretch to it, is a great length, and I think it will hold up well. The material is buttery soft as well.
Amazon faux suede skirt // Express Peplum // similar Vince tall boots // earrings

My wireless earbud - earphones
Who knew working from home would lead to the discovery of new and better earphones?
I have been working out with the wireless bluetooth Beats for maybe 5-6 years and they have been great for the purpose they serve. However, if I ever got a call while wearing them the other person could never really hear me and I’d have to switch to my phone.
We discovered the Jabra Elite Active 75t wireless headphones and they are amazing! I was hesitant to spend the money at first as I also have the Apple AirPods to use but the AirPods do not stay in my ears well and thus, I wouldn’t even consider them for use while working out.
The Jabra Elite Active 75t airbuds fit perfectly into the ear, are waterproof, and they have excellent reviews for their microphone system. I love this feature because I can easily accept phone calls while working out and the person can hear me. There is a “hear through” feature that you can utilize if exercising outside and want to be able to hear the road noise.
That sums it up for now, friends. Any new favorites for you lately??
I hope you have a fabulous weekend!
