November always feels like the unofficial kickoff to cozy season, which means my shopping cart ended up with a little bit of everything this month. From top drawer wardrobe refreshers and beauty finds to a few pet-parent essentials I couldn’t resist, this is a fun mix of practical and fun purchases. In this post, I’m breaking down all the things I bought in November, so let’s get into it!
Clothing
For the last few years, I’ve been working with a personal trainer, and I needed a few new workout staples. I picked up a Lululemon long sleeve Sculpt tee and tank in the palm deco color (no longer available in the tank), an Align racerback tank in black plum, and a forever staple in any woman’s workout wardrobe, a pair of black leggings.
While I was in the States at the beginning of the month, I was able to refresh my favorite top drawer essentials at Nordstrom. I love this Natori underwire bra and their comfort evolution memory foam convertible bra. I also stocked up on my favorite cotton French cut briefs. For my last top drawer refresh, I bought a new cozy pair of pajamas from Eberjey.
Over the last few months, I’ve fallen in love with the brand Jenni Kayne. I added the demi pant in olio and their Flynn cashmere sweater in ivory to my wardrobe. For those days when I want an easy yet chic matching set, I’ve been reaching for this combo from Kilte. This would make for a great travel outfit! While not a purchase in November, this coat from Sézane has been in heavy rotation the past few weeks. It’s the winter version of their ever-popular Clyde trench coat.
And let’s not forget about Andrew, as he made a few new purchases this month! He’s loving this new flannel shirt in off-white, a perfect layering shirt for fall and winter, and this steel blue sweater. He’s been getting a lot of wear out of these sneakers from Soludos. All of these would make excellent gifts for the men in your life!
Beauty
My makeup needed a restock, so I ordered a few of my favorite clean beauty picks. I love this Merit Day Glow Dewy Highlighting Balm (in bounce) and the Ilia Multi-Stick (in lady bird). This highlighter and blush combination is perfect for adding color, but also provides a dewy finish that’s great in the winter months, as my skin gets drier. I also re-stocked my Ilia Necessary Eyeshadow Palette in warm nude.
Home
I attended an event hosted by Martin Brudnizki at the V&A Museum and had to pick up his book My Life in Colors. The book dives into how Martin layers colors to create a story in each of his interior designs and encourages you to live in full color. It’s the perfect coffee table book and would make a great gift for the design lovers in your life.
The biggest addition this month was our golden retriever, Einstein! He is utter chaos wrapped in unbearable sweetness. We are loving every second with him! I’ve picked up a few essentials for him from Daylesford Farm. For his first bath, I picked up this dog shampoo and this daily scent spray that neutralizes odors. Of course, he’s a scarf lover like his mother, so I had to get him this tweed bandana. He’ll be the most fashionable dog in the neighborhood!
