18 Back to School Essentials for 2018

1. Rifle Paper Co x Corkcicle Water Bottle: This water bottle is my absolute favorite!  I keep a bottle of water with me at all times, so this one makes drinking enough water really easy every day.
2. Ledger Daily Schedule Tear-Away Notepad: I love a good check list, and this one is perfect for capturing all my things to do each day.  I also really like that it has the reminder to stretch.
3. Lavender Salve: My love for rose salve runs deep, but I decided to try this lavender salve, and I really like it, too!
4. MantraBand: I love the MantraBand with “breathe” written on it as a reminder to take a deep breath and then continue to move the work forward.
5. Herbivore Detox Bath Salts: These bath salts are my favorite way to relax!  Sundays are my favorite day for self care to start my week off right, so these are a staple for me.  Check out more self-care favorites here!
6. Tocca Mini Eau de Parfum Stella: Tocca Stella is my favorite scent, so I like to have one in my cosmetic bag.
7. Mario Badescu Facial Spray: I love a good facial spray to freshen up my makeup throughout the day.
8. Ledger Desk Set: This is such a cute desk set with its notepads, paperclips, and my personal favorites, binder clips.
9. Rifle Paper Co World Travel 2019 Calendar: I look forward to these calendars every year.  Here is the 2019 version of the one I currently have in my office.
10. Plant Lovers Pencils:  Recently, I subbed my favorite colors pens for pencils since my schedule is not always set in stone.  I really love these cute plant lover themed pencils!
11. Acrylic Desk Organizer:  These folders are really pretty to be displayed on a desk in this organizer.  I like to keep folders that I use on a daily basis easily accessible.
12. Wild at Heart Desk Pad: I keep this calendar by my phone to jot down future meetings.  Bonus, it’s beautiful and the watercolor flowers brighten up my work space.
13. Acrylic Tape Dispenser: Acrylic office supplies have always been my favorite, so a tape dispenser is something I added to my desk.
14. Rifle Paper Co. Notebooks: I’m pretty sure that these notebooks make every list I write on here, but they are really helpful.  I keep one in my work bag, in my person, and beside my bed to write down ideas.
15. Recover Keyboard Cover: This keyboard cover is beautiful and a great way to protect your device.
16. Marbled Wireless Mouse: My wireless mouse is my favorite technology addition, and this one is a beauty.
17. Rose Scissors: These scissors compliment my wireless mouse and my acrylic tape dispenser and desk organizer.
18. Living Proof Instant De-Frizzer: I keep one of these travel sizes in my bag at all times because it helps control my crazy hair, which is really important for running in and out of meetings.
