I round up my favorite things each month for a monthly favorites list. At the end of the year, I pull from each monthly list to create an annual favorites list. In 2025, I broke down my list into three parts: Beauty, Fashion, and Home and Misc. It's my way of keeping track of the very best things. The lists work because when I look back on the past few years, most things on each list are still my favorites. My only rule is that I don't repeat items from month to month or year to year, so there is no overlap.
Flats// I love these flats because they feel on trend but still lean classic. I'm not going to partake in the mesh shoe trend, but I feel like this is a more classic take on that look. Not only do I love how they look, but they are incredibly comfortable and beautifully made. The sole bends so much that they feel like they are a part of my feet when walking.
Sweatshirt// This brand is new to me, and I'm a fan of their 100% cotton lounge pieces. They are so comfortable and well-made. I am particularly fond of this sweatshirt, which is the perfect amount of oversized without looking sloppy. I love the high neck- it's almost a mockneck but not quite.
Rain Jacket// This cheery yellow color makes me so happy. It comes in more neutral shades, but there is just something so fun about a brightly colored slicker. It's a spring staple. The swing shape is simple and classic.
Foot Cream// I'm getting my feet in summer shape with this foot cream. Could you use your regular moisturizer on your feet? Absolutely. I was curious about this cream, and it delivered. I have been loving products with urea, which hydrate while gently exfoliating. It has made my feet so soft and smooth!
Blow Dry Mist// This is SO good. This will definitely be making the end of the year favorites list. The mist is so light- like hairspray, almost. I spray it on my damp hair before I blow-dry. It has a very light, pleasant scent. I used it the entire time I was in Florida, and it never made my hair frizz in the southern humidity. It's truly amazing. It makes my hair so soft! I use this with the Wella Spray, but I think you could use either one.
Lip Plump in Pink Poppy// I love this lip product and have collected it in many colors over the years. Poppy has always been my favorite color. This is *pink* poppy, which is just that. It's more of a pink coral than poppy, which is a true coral hue. It's so pretty, and dare I say, I prefer it to poppy. My new top favorite!
Beach Tote// This is such a cute beach tote that comes in many colors and styles. You can wipe it down, and it comes with a pouch you can stash your phone or things like lip gloss, sunscreen, etc. It's well-made and large, so you can fit a towel and anything else you may need at the pool or beach.
Swimsuit// I absolutely love this print. It comes in many different pieces, but I was drawn to the swimsuit. It's such a simple silhouette, but it is flattering and well-made. It's fully lined, and the booty coverage is perfect- it's modest without feeling too covered up.
Swimsuit// This swimsuit is like the Spanx of swimwear. When you pull it on, it feels tight- almost like it may be a little snug, and you feel like you maybe ordered the wrong size. But, once it's on, it sculpts and shapes like nothing I've ever worn before. When I wear this, I feel so secure and held in. You can jump in and out of water, swim, play games like beach volleyball without a care in the world- this swimsuit is not budging! This really gives me a confidence boost. The booty is full coverage, and that's where I would make the only edit, I wish it were cut with a touch less coverage- truly just a touch. I fully understand why the bum is very full coverage because it really lifts and sculpts the bum, so it's not losing points for this, but just my two cents.
Necklace// This necklace is just FUN! I love how it adds lots of color to even the simplest of outfits. It's a fun piece to have for spring and summer. This is the 22mm.
Fish Earrings// This is another fun piece! They are so unique and come in many colors. They are lightweight and very comfortable to wear. They really make a statement and are so fun for a vacation by the water.
Disinfecting Wipes// These just launched, and I've been wiping down my kitchen and bathrooms with them when I need to do a quick clean! We typically use the Force of Nature spray and a microfiber cloth, but these are best for quick messes or a quick tidy. I love the pretty dispenser. I have one in my car, the bathrooms, and in the kitchen! I love this brand. I wish they would create a small keychain dispenser with a few I could hook on Henry's leash. A bird pooped on me during my walk with Henry the other day (lol, but also ew), and I really wish I had a wipe on hand to get it off quickly!
Hat// This hat has become my entire warm-weather personality. I feel so chic in it, and not only that, but it's so functional as the brim is wide and really covers my face and chest. I'm all about sunscreen, but a hat is often necessary in the summer months. I really love this brand. It's pricey, but the styles are so simple and fabulous.
Pullover// This is a classic and something I've been reaching for nonstop. I love the ribbed texture and, of course, the blue-and-white stripes. The shawl-style collar elevates it from a typical sweatshirt. I got a small, it runs very roomy!
