So, I skipped a Monday post last week since it was close week, even while working from home. I hope everyone had a great Easter this weekend though! I have been wearing my pajamas A LOT lately, and doing some cooking. I am working on some new recipe posts to share since it’s much more affordable to cook for yourself than get takeout. Here are five things I am currently loving while I’m stuck at home. These are things to enjoy being comfy and will help you keep beautified and busy.
MY FAVORITE ROBE
I have been wearing my robe on repeat around the house since I am always cold. Plus I can be wearing anything underneath and at least with the robe I can run out and walk the dog. I feel like everyone needs a comfy robe when they are stuck at the house, or even when you’re not stuck! Ive linked some comfy plus robes below under $50.
NAIL GLOSS STRIPS
Everyone is freaking out about their quarantine nails except for me. That’s because I have been doing my nails at home for a couple of years. Lately I have kept my nails at a shorter length and using nail gloss strips. These gloss strips by Dashing Diva, are basically a sticker that covers your whole nail like polish. I can do my nails in less than 10 minutes and with a clear coat on top like Seche Vite they can last almost 2 weeks. They cost less than $10 and you can get 2 manicures at least out of a set! I linked some of my favorites at Ulta below.
FRESH FLOWERS
I have been getting fresh flowers weekly from Whole Foods. I feel like they have a great selection of free trade flowers and they are affordable. This week my husband picked me up some gorgeous purple ombre roses, and some greenery and babies breath for filler. I will link my favorite vases below that are great for small to large arrangements. I also use wet floral foam and snips specifically for cutting flowers.
NEW FAVORITE GLASSWARE
One of my favorite restaurants in Winter Park has the cutest glasses and I found them at Sur la Table. My dad ordered them for me as a birthday gift and they arrived last week. I’m obsessed with bees, guess why I like Gucci? And these glasses by La Rochere have little bees on them. I have the champagne glasses and the dessert plates, but I would love to add to my collection. I’ve linked my sets and some really cute bee tableware below.
COMFY LOUNGEWEAR
I am still waiting on my lounge wear from Nordstrom Rack to arrive, but I ordered some more joggers today. I am really loving soft comfy clothing that can double as a walking around the block, or running errands outfit. I have to sit at my dining table all day working from home, so I really want to wear comfy pants. Here are some of the items that I recently purchased below.
What’s one thing that you are currently loving? Is there anything that’s keeping you sane at home?

Great post, looking forward to checking out your links to both the nails, robe & loungewear. As you said it’s all being comfy right now.
Nikki! I’m LOVING that green hedge / wall against your cheetah print! I hope you’re doing well and staying safe.
Right now, I am loving joggers from Victoria’s Secret / Pink. I never shopped Pink until after college, even though it’s usually the other way around! But I found a pair of joggers on sale for $23 and bought two, one that looks like cotton candy skies and another with a pink snake print (just bought a third after finding them on sale again!). I love wearing them while working from home or lounging around the house.
What’s keeping me sane at home: music! I’ve found a new album or song to fall in love with almost every week, so I’ve been playing lots of music while I’m working or relaxing. My latest favorite is the Wake Up, Sunshine album by All Time Low.
Hi Kelly! It’s so great to hear from you!! It sounds like you are doing so well at home and have some great tips for staying sane. I love the idea of finding a new song every week! I’m going to listen to this one you recommended thank you so much!! xoxo
Thank you!! Still looking for some nails for Loren!! xoxo
