AMAZON GIFT IDEAS FOR HIM & HER

Wow! The Amazon Cyber Deals have been amazing, and I have knocked out so much shopping! And seeing as it’s been nine months since I linked up with the precious Tanya and her blog link up from The Other Side of the Road for all things, Amazon, it’s TIIIMMEEE! Including all the fun and useful stocking stuffers as well.

We might as well start with the guys because I have a lot of those. Lol. Mr. Nine really wants this Golf Practice set, and I think that Flannel Shirt is such a good one! You cannot go wrong with the Amazon Gift Card, especially when they come packaged in the cute little Amazon trucks! And you may remember a few years back when I won a bottle of Invictus Cologne at the Windy City Live Show show in Chicago, well Mr. Nine has loved it ever since so he might just get some more!

Shirt // Gift Card // Golf Practice Set // Soaps // Oral B Rechargeable Toothbrush // Hey Dude Shoes // Carhartt Travel Kit // Stanley Big Grip Mug // Carhartt Hat // Invictus Cologne

Let’s talk gifts for her! I do think shopping for the females is so much more fun! One of Oprah's favorite things this year was the Grow Kit. And the Poncho Wrap is delightful and drapes so nice. The Heated Eye Massager... oh my. and how bout my favorite Blow Dryer Brush from L'Ange.

Sourdough Starter Kit// Eye Massager // Necklace // Blow Dryer Brush // Cloud Socks // Crockpot Lunch Pail // Sweater Wrap // Book // Garden Tools Kit // Slippers // Coffee Grinder

Stocking stuffers are oh so FUN! Mr. Nine just loves the Solid Cologne. And how cool are the Wood Pens and Outlet Extender!

Gold Groove Sharpener // Hair Dough // Wooden Pen Set // Jerky Variety pack // hims Haircare Set // Yellowstone Soap // Ratcheting Screwdriver // Foldable Water Bottle // Multi Plug Outlet Extender // Solid Cologne Set

And for her.....the Lip & Eye Mask set is so cute and a GREAT Deal! I love the L'Occitane Shower Oil and let's just say the e.l.f Face Cream is my new holy grail at night!

Hair Ties// Trinket Dish // e.l.f Face Cream // Writing Pens //Ami Cole Lip & Blush Stick // Earrings // Laneage Lip Gloss Balm // Shower Gel // Spa Headbands // Coffee Spoon // Eye and Lip Mask Set// Coffee Notepad

And I absolutely had to share This SWEATER again. Seeing I have it in 3 colors because it’s my FAVORITE Amazon clothing purchase this year. It’s a CYBER DEAL for $14.99. I paid regular price this summer at $39 so you can’t beat it.

Lots of colors and amazing high quality and sweet details.

Hopefully, most of my family won’t be reading this because many things on these lists I’ve purchased, (so shhhh) or I have done so in the past and they’ve all been a hit!

Are you done shopping?

Happy CYBER MONDAY!!!

AMAZON WHAT YOU LOVED

Happy February. I decided to do a little something different this first monthly Prime Link-Up of Tanya's. I’m sharing the top selling items for 2023 that you all bought and loved. I too own them all but one and they are indeed favorites!

IT CONFIDENCE IN AN EYE CREAM

Sharing this first, simply because it was number 1! You all lived this EYE CREAM and I do too. I use this every night!

NECKLACE

I’ve shared this necklace so many times but rightly so because so many of you love it like I do. Got my mom one for Christmas.

HAT

Give me all the Yankees baseball hats. Not necessarily because I’m a Yankees Fan but because they complement casual outfits so well. I own in two color ways and love This One.

PLACEMATS

I literally ordered 66 of these Rattan Placemats for the Baby Shower last summer. I love them. Will use and have on hand for any other big events. These are so in right now and many of you love them too. Hand Braided from 100% Water Hyacinth.

BLANKET

Chunky Cutie! Curl up in knit luxury and/or use it for decoration. This Blanket is so good.

SUNGLASSES

I cannot even tell you how I jumped for joy when I saw these Kate Spade Sunglasses on Amazon. They are literally the sunglasses I wear 90% of the time. Mr. Nine bought them for me at Nordstrom several years ago and when I lost that first pair I was devastated. But alas Amazon came through and at a much better price. I have since bought 2 more pairs.

PURSE

The perfect size PURSE! Looks high end and yet so affordable.

SWEATSHIRT

This Sweatshirt is a good one! Perfect with leggings or jeans and just the right amount of oversized fit.

STANLEY CUP

You might not be able to find Barbie Pink on release day (that was Target only) but you can find all kinds of colors of Stanley Cup. Disclaimer: This is the item I actually do not own, lol

Necklace // HAT // Placemats // Eye Cream // Blanket // Sunglasses // purse // Sweatshirt // Stanley Cup

Have you purchased any of these?

I'm recovering from a trip to Vegas but I'll be back later this week loves!

AMAZON SOFT FALL SWEATERS

I really thought the cool temps were here to stay in Indiana and I was ordering all the sweaters. Going to probably have to wait a few weeks before I can wear them in the elements as this week, we are back up to the 90’s and over 100 heat index. It’s kind of unheard of for Indiana in September. I’m hearing the whole month is going to be warm and I don’t want it speeding up the opening of my mums that I haven’t even gotten yet, lol. The bad thing is the warmth of speed them up in the nurseries too. Oh, well, I’m still dreaming of it all and still gathering some fabulous Fall Sweaters. Sharing some here along with some other Amazon goodies to link up with my friend Tanya and her prime link up.

Cream // Pink SS // Blush Pink // Camel Crew // Brick Red 1/2 Zip // Olive Green SS // Red Mock Neck

Cream

You can’t go wrong with a Pretty CREAM SWEATER and this is a good one!

Pink Short Sleeve

This PINK ONE has my heart big time! I just got it last week and wore it over the weekend. It’s such a good one and you can get the neckline in square and I believe in crewneck as well and lots of colors.

Blush Pink

This BLUSH PINK Cutie is so Flippin' soft! I love the drape of it!

Camel Crew

What makes this one unusual are the cable knit sleeves! Camel is always so perfect for fall and so versatile. LOVE this CAMEL CREW!

Brick Red Zip

This BRICK RED 1/2 ZIP is so pretty and I’m wearing it in the photo below. It's more of an orange rust in person but LOTS of colors! I love the zip neck and the big chunky collar.

Olive Green Short Sleeve

What’s the weather still warm, It’s kind of nice to pull out the short sleeve sweaters. This OLIVE GREEN ONE works really well with the long sleeve T-shirt underneath as well.

Fiery Red

The blouson sleeves just make this SWEATER, and the fiery red was my favorite! The HAT is from Amazon Too!

Extra: Pink T-Neck

I love this RIBBED SWEATER so much I ended up ordering it in three colors! The pink is still my favorite! I love that these cover my butt like the next one.

BONUS: One of my FAVORITE FALL MUGS

Cozy up in a sweater and your favorite Warm Bevi in one of my Favorite FALL MUGS! It's so good you guys!

Happy Shopping, Happy Labor Day and Have a GREAT WEEK!

AMAZON ALL TIME FAVORITES

There’s Amazon finds and then there’s AMAZON FINDS! You know, those things that you buy over and over again or find yourself using all the time that you do a little “thank goodness I found this on Amazon!” Today in linking up with Tanya's popular prime purchases, I’m sharing some of my favorite Amazon buys of all time!

Necklace Set // Container Set // Car Guys Super Cleaner // Eye Cream// Sunglasses // Door Mat // Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner // Packing Cubes // Probiotic

Necklace Set

I absolutely sound like a broken record on this but it’s hands-down one of my favorite Necklace Sets and I wear it at least three times a week. I have now had a set for over 2 years, and it has not tarnished. I bought a backup set just in case and I’ve given this set as a gift numerous times, and not one person has said it has tarnished yet! So lovely!

Rubbermaid Brilliance

You may remember me talking a couple times about my beloved flour, sugar, brown sugar, etc. set from Tupperware. I had those things with the hunter green lids for over 20 years, and I love them! But the lids are cracked, and no one was able to find me replacements. So, when I redid the pantry a couple years ago, I ordered these Brilliance Containers from Rubbermaid. I use them almost daily as I have lots of other things stored in them as well. I ended up buying about 20 in total, and they keep the pantry so nice and neat, keep the food fresh, and I just love them!

Car Guys Cleaner

NOT JUST FOR CARS! Car Guys Super Cleaner can literally clean everything! Talk about Power. And for under $20, you'll feel like your house has had a deep clean and even old dirt will be wiped away. Such good stuff! A SUPER cleaner for sure!

Cerave Eye Cream

Finally, an eye cream to help with puffiness! I really love but this Creave Eye Repair Cream seems to work just a little bit better and at such a great price point! It’s the ultimate #1 item on Amazon right now for a reason!

Kate Spade Sunglasses

I wear these Kate Spade Sunglasses almost on the daily. I am on my third pair. (Lost one and one as backup) My husband bought me a pair of these at Nordstrom several years ago for over $200 but on Amazon you can find them for a quarter of the price. They are literally the perfect sunglasses, and I always love the quality products from Kate Spade!

Checkered Door mat

I used the black and white Checkered Door Mat so much that I bought a backup. And then per the holidays, started buying in other colors. Love layering door mats with a checkered one underneath.

Affresh Products

I love all these products. From the coffee maker cleaning tabs to the ones for your washer and your Garbage Disposal: they are fabulous. But my favorite happens to be the Dishwasher Tabs. They truly make your dishwasher look sparling and brand new. And all these are so affordable!

Packing Cubes!

Hands-down in the top three of Amazon purchases! I bought my first set of packing cubes in 2019 and have used them so much; well of course for that little lack of travel there during the pandemic, but I loved them so much that I just bought a second set for our London and Paris trip. I thought that I could use one for one city and the other color for the other. The ones in the lavender are the same brand but they are considerably cheaper right now as I write this!

RePHresh Probiotic

I take digestive probiotics too but this RePHresh Probiotic is The Clinically Tested feminine probiotic developed by doctors to maintain vaginal health. I buy this monthly and it’s $10 cheaper on Amazon than in the store. Not all probiotics are the same. Some are used for digestive health and immunity but are not specific to vaginal health. So, it is important to choose a probiotic with strains clinically tested to balance yeast and bacteria, like RepHresh Pro-B for vaginal health. Knock on wood but I rarely have yeast infections anymore.

*******

So Many Fashion Finds

I have had some good fashion finds like these Daily Ritual Joggers and Jumpsuit!

Also my favorite hats and Belt are from but I decided to leave those out for this post but definitely some of my favorites!

Happy Week Ahead Loves!

But here on the blog, it’s gift and home prepping inspiration time! I’m linking up with Tanya and her Amazon Prime link up this week for even more inspiration. Bringing you not one, not two, not three BUT…6 guides!!

FOR THE KITCHEN

I love getting new things for the kitchen. That set of Nine Mixing Bowls and Spoons and spoons is just ingenious and I think a lot of women with scream with the light if they got a Stand-Up Mixer! I love the colors on that gorgeous Skillet too.
