I'm feelin lucky...

...because within the last 4 weeks I have found 3 different items that make my life oh-so-wonderfully better.


Item ONE:

I found mine at Nordstrom's BP, and they are, hands down, my favorite pair of black skinnies.....ever. 
[They're the black pants I'm wearing in most of my Outtakes Post.]

They are thick, yet soft.
Stretchy, yet don't lose their shape.
And constructed in a way to pull you in exactly where you want to be 'pulled in.'

I want to say they are the first real 'jegging' I've found that are actually the perfect marriage of jeans+leggings.
....and at $48?
   Hallelujah!

Item TWO:

I was moseying through Target one night when these babies caught my eye.

I have this horrible predicament of hating the "claw"....you know what I'm talking about...
These guys right here:

 -but needing them all while HATING them.

I have fine, straight, silky textured hair.... pony tail holders slip out of my hair  too easily, while flattening any extra volume I can miraculously create, so for the past 10 years, the 'claw' has been my go-to hair device.
But, claws are:
ugly
slip
bulky
poky
break easily
and nicknamed a "penis pincher"

For the last reason alone, I needed to find a replacement.

One twisty pin is equivalent to 20 bobby pins and they work by twisting into your styled up hair like a cork screw. They hold everything together while giving you lift, plus they are invisible AND comfortable.

GAME CHANGER, GUYS! 

Item THREE:
The Ebb and Flow Crop ||

  I bought these work out pants over a month ago, and I have worn them every day since. 
Promise.

They have replaced my comfy sweats even, and I have slept in them multiple times, too. The best part is that they make your booty look awesome. They're like magical optical illusion pants and if LuluLemon ever discontinues them-I just might die...or cry.

To find 3 awesome life altering items within one month is crazy, right?....I must be doing something to please the Gods.

This stuff never happens to me.

    1. I just found out the pants are having issues! the day after I posted this, I saw on Yahoo that they are recalling some of them for their see-through-ness...mine are fine but they took them off the shelfs for the time being---so awful!!!! my nightmare came true!
