Heading into the end of the year, I am starting to reflect on articles I wrote throughout this year and what series I will keep into 2024. This is definitely one of the ones I will keep because I have really had the best time writing this each month! I know I have mentioned it before, but I have worked on being super intentional with purchases and found this series helpful in staying on track. Here are 5 random things that I tried and loved last month, including a must-have for a puppy, a new set of sheets that I get the hype about, and more!
See my favorites from January, February, March + April, May + June, July, August, September and October.
5 Things I Bought & Loved in November 2023

one || two || three || four || five
Amazon Dog Seat

A friend of mine shared this dog car seat she got for her puppy and I decided to try one out for Ruthie while she’s still a little girl. Winston gets the entire back of the car and I want to keep her where I can see her. So far, so good with this! She seems to really enjoy it and it is easy to install, move, and clean. At the time of publishing, there is a 15% off coupon for this as well!
Boll & Branch Signature Hemmed Sheet Set

David and I were in the market for a new set of sheets and I was heavily influenced by the Instagram marketing campaign leading up to Black Friday. I picked up a set of the signature hem sheets, and I will say, I get the hype. I am thrilled with them and would highly recommend them if you are in the market for a new set of sheets as well. At the time of publishing, these sheets are 20% off with the winter sale event.
Hotel Lobby Candle Holiday Three-Wick Candle

I have long admired large candles, though I had a hard time justifying them because I do like to switch up my home scents. That said, during the holidays, I stick with the Hotel Lobby Candle Holiday scent. It is my absolute favorite and when I saw their limited edition 3-wick candle, I immediately purchased it. I felt that it would last me all season, be aesthetically pleasing for our living room, and would save money because I would not need to buy so many smaller versions. It comes beautifully packaged in a large box and in a cream bag, so it would make a very luxe gift, as well!
Merit Solo Shadow Cream-to-Powder Soft Matte Eyeshadow in Social

While I typically stick to my tried-and-true make-up items, I did pick this up during the Sephora sale and have loved it for the cooler months. It goes on so well and the color is light, though is also buildable. I will continue trying Merit beauty products when I need to replace an item because so far I have been really pleased with the items I have tried by them.
Vuori Performance Jogger

I was long overdue for updating my workout gear, so I decided to try out Vuori for a few pieces. I also added this pair of joggers to my evergrowing jogger collection and let me tell ya, they are worth the hype! The fabric is so soft and I am reaching for them often in my work-from-home/gotta get the puppy out the door attire this winter!
