A few weeks ago, I was having lunch with friends, and one of them had recently had a baby. To celebrate, she received a thoughtful gift: the NodPod. I’d never heard of a weighted blanket eye mask before, so I was intrigued to learn more about it. The friend who gifted it to her explained that the NodPod is designed to help with sleep by providing gentle pressure, similar to a weighted blanket, but specifically for the eyes. This concept…
Working from home is great, but for those of us who have returned to the office, nothing is more frustrating than preparing for work the night before and realizing that your bag can’t fit everything you need. I end up having to choose between fitting a water bottle or my laptop. That’s why I compiled a list of the best work bags. If you prefer a commuter backpack, which is what I currently use, read this post. Otherwise, continue reading…
At the beginning of the year, I like to sit down and think about what I want the new year to look like, what I want to accomplish, and the goals I want to set for myself. I like to think about these things, but they often end up being thoughts that pass through my head, and shortly after, I forget about them. One thing that helps me to stick to my goals is to write them down. I like…
After a period of careful consideration and extensive research to find the ideal work laptop backpack that not only meets my professional needs but also aligns with my personal style, my choice led me to the Calpak Luka backpack. Having used it for more than a year, I’m eager to provide you with my in-depth review of the Calpak Luka backpack. I want to mention that the Luka backpack wasn’t my initial choice. I liked it, but the material gave…
When I think of laptop backpacks for women, the first thing that comes to mind is a boring backpack, usually in a black color that looks like something you’d take with you on your next hike or ski trip. A bag that is anything but stylish. Yes, I agree. The ones I’m talking about are also roomy and have many pockets to fit anything your heart desires. However, I like to keep things on the minimal and simplistic side. Practicality…
Work from home is becoming the new norm. I have to say I’m surprised and excited to learn that so many companies nowadays are allowing their employees to work remotely in some capacity. As someone working from home for the past five years (and just recently switched to working in an office for half of my week), I know the advantages and disadvantages of working from the comfort of my own home. Adding a few work from home office essentials…
Self care is a word that is being used quite a lot, and even more in the past year. It is supposed to improve your well-being and happiness, particularly if we’re going through stressful and challenging times. But what will self care ideas look like in 2021? I find that self-care is subjective because it can mean one thing to me and a completely different something to you. And, not everything that works for one person will work for another.…
Valentine’s day is right around the corner and I’m including some fun Valentine’s Day gift ideas for the cocktail lover in your life. Restaurants are still closed for business, which means that going out for dinner is out of the question. We’ll be cooking at home, maybe watch a movie, play board games, and sip on cocktails. What else is left to do, right? It is what it is. We can just hope that next year things will be a…
