I was supposed to go to San Diego this weekend to celebrate my aunt’s birthday. But I pulled my back Thursday and have instead been stuck at home resting. I cannot wait until I don’t have to rest again! To keep sane, I’ve been reading all day and binge watching shows at night. If you’re looking for some new shows to watch or accounts to follow, here are…
5 THINGS I’M LOVING RIGHT NOW
#1: chic computers
Considering how much I’m on my computer, I would say it’s one of my most used accessories. So I prefer it to look more chic than basic. I do this with laptop cases. There are so many options available, but I like a hard shell since it protects my computer while making it look more fashionable.
I have an older Mac pro, so I got this laptop case in Marble 2. I’ve been really happy with the design. If you have a newer computer, they have the same case for more recent versions.
KECC laptop case, $19.99
#2: binge-worthy
I’ve been watching The Affair since season one. The show is on its fifth and final season and I’m going to be so sad when it’s over.
It’s dark but I’m fascinated by how the show portrays life through the eyes of the different and very complex characters. It really shows how we can remember instances of life so differently than others. This season also touches on very current problems, from the environment to the #metoo movement. If you haven’t seen it yet, I couldn’t recommend it more… as long as you like dark dramas.
The Affair, Sundays @ 9pm on Showtime
#3: happy feet
I tried YogaToes ages ago after killing my feet in heels at fashion week and was hooked. They’re a gel like toe separator, that stretch out your toes, helping to relieve foot pain (great if you wear heels a ton like me!).
After forgetting my pair at a hotel a while ago, I stopped using them until recently. I ordered another pair and I’m hooked again! They also supposedly help strengthen your feet, which is an added bonus. I try to wear them for about 15 minutes three times a week.
YogaToes, $36.95
#4: leaf envy
In last week’s 5 Things, I chatted about living vicariously through my friend Jess’ fall foliage. This week I’ve been pretending I’m with my blogger babes Christina and Marissa on their girls Vermont trip.
I really need to get to the East Coast to experience fall leaves for myself! For now, I’ll just keep daydreaming as I scroll through Instagram.

#5: baby gifts
It seems like everyone in my life is having a baby right now. My go-to baby gift this year has been personalized books.
I just got this name book for my friend’s baby and she was obsessed. They also have other cute personalized book options from baptism to birthday books. They’re fully personalized from the cover to the interior pages.
