Oh, Drew Barrymore. Everything she touches is pure gold, and her Beautiful by Drew Barrymore collection is my all-time favorite brand to shop at Walmart. My entire kitchen is practically overflowing with their products. I have the Beautiful Toaster, Beautiful Coffee Maker, Beautiful Air Fryer — you name it. So, when one of her kitchen […]

It’s the end of an era. Taylor Swift’s record-breaking Era’s Tour is officially over, and if you’re feeling sad (er, heartbroken), you’re not alone. Luckily, the memories will live on forever, and there’s no better way to celebrate the end of this historic era than with some new merch. Whether you’re on the hunt for […]

We’re already three days into December, and if you’re a last-minute shopper like myself — don’t fret. There’s still time to find this year’s Christmas tree before it’s really too late. Several high quality, artificial trees are still marked down to Cyber Monday prices on Amazon, so this is truly your last chance to secure […]

As a frequent traveler, I have yet to find a travel backpack with enough room to fit a laptop, book, accessories and extra clothing. I refuse to check a suitcase, so it’s essential everything fits between my carry-on luggage and personal item, which is always without fail a backpack. But I always find myself with […]

The wait is over — Black Friday is finally here! With several brands and retailers slashing prices left and right, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. That’s why we’re here to help, and if you’re going to shop just one home appliance deal, let it be Dyson’s discounts on top-rated vacuums, air purifiers and even hair […]

And no, they’re not for boring things like toilet paper or coffee pods. The best Black Friday deals under $25 include everything from chic matching loungewear sets […]

There are plenty of impressive fashion picks, sleek tech and luxe home goods that cost as little as under $50. The hardest part is knowing where to start. Luckily, we rounded up the […]

There’s no better feeling than gifting something your loved ones can’t stop talking about. But finding holiday gifts that are worth fighting over is easier said than done. This year, I’m relying on Zappos as my one-stop holiday shop for gifts my loved ones will be talking about until next Christmas. Their holiday gift section […]

Pets are extended members of our families. We nurture and care for them — they have larger-than-life personalities and deliver the sweetest cuddles. We spend so much time bonding with and learning from them. Since pets bring Us so much joy, it’s only right that they wake up to the best gifts during the holiday […]

‘Tis the season for holiday parties! Between hosting and shopping for gifts, it feels like there’s hardly any time to find festive winter dresses — not to mention finding a ‘fit for the annual office holiday party. I mean, where do you even start? Dresses for office holiday parties strike a delicate balance of festive […]

I used to believe the only way to look “expensive” was to invest in high-quality materials and craftsmanship. While this is true, it doesn’t necessarily mean you have to spend a fortune on every. single. accessory. When it comes to your wardrobe, you have the power to decide what you want to spend big on, […]

If you feel like Black Friday happens earlier and earlier every year, you’re not alone. The once per year sale (aka the Super Bowl of shopping) is no longer a single day event as brands and retailers slash prices ahead of the holidays. While it’s certainly overwhelming, we’re here to break down the very best […]

It’s officially November, meaning it’s finally Advent calendar season! As a commerce editor, I’ve tested somewhere between 30-50 Advent calendars in the past year, and hot take — not all of them are worth it. But my favorite holiday countdown? Coffee Advent calendars — here’s why. Only one coffee Advent calendar has truly impressed me over […]

Confession time: I hate wearing denim jeans. Every little detail, from the restricting waist band to the crunchy texture, feels unbearable to wear for hours at a time. I’m also curvy, so finding a pair that accentuates my hips but doesn’t feel like I’m swimming in the waist area is a feat. I’ll occasionally make […]

If there’s one thing I pride myself on, it’s finding luxury clothing and accessories at a fraction of the price. A designer handbag? I’ll find a lookalike on Amazon for under $100. Luxury clothing brands? There’s got to be clothing with similar — if not the same — fabric makeup but at an accessible cost. […]

Between finding fashionable new pieces for fall and head-turning dresses for holiday parties, there are a lot of occasions to shop for. While I love wearing something new to every event (happy hour drinks, brunch or work) I can’t justify the cost. Instead, I find versatile numbers that can be styled over and over again […]

October is synonymous with Amazon Prime Big Deal Days (and pumpkin patches, apple orchards and all the fall things, of course). And in my household, October is also moving month. It’s both annoying and awesome because, well, nobody likes moving — but at least I get to shop for new furniture at a steep discount […]
