1) Day Designer Planner- I have used the academic year weekly vertical planner by Day Designer for the past three years. It's the only planner I have used in college, and it has everything that I need. They are out of stock in the one that I use but are coming out with the yearly ones for 2019 this week. I love that the days are vertical and that you can easily see across your whole week. Stay tuned for a post later this week on how I organize and use my Day Designer. On top of each day it has a three task to do list and this is one of my favorite features. Three things each day is a good amount of things to accomplish each day and leaves you feeling productive yet not overwhelmed.
2) Simply Modern water bottle- I picked up this water bottle the other day in Target and have been absolutely loving it. I have been using it every morning for my iced coffee and it does a great job at keeping it cold. They also have so many cute designs and colors that are fun and unique. The main thing that is important to me when buying water bottles is that they don't leak and this one does a great job at that. I throw it in my bag when heading out to class and my bag stays nice and coffee free. It also doesn't create condensation on the outside of the water bottle which is great for on the go.3) Birchbox- I go to college in the middle of nowhere with the closest mall being almost an hour away. As a shopaholic this creates a huge online shopping addiction for me. For Christmas this past year my mother got me a Birchbox subscription for while I was at school. I loved receiving the monthly presents and it was a great way to try beauty and makeup products before committing to the full size one. I stopped my membership while I was home for the summer since I had several great makeup stores less than ten minutes away. Now that I'm back at school I just bought myself a year long membership and I'm so excited for my September box to arrive.
4) Dynasty- I have been binge watching this show all week on Netflix and am so excited for season 2 to come out in October. It is a remake of the show from the 1980's and it is so entertaining. I love keeping it on in the background while I'm cleaning and getting ready.
