So I was thinking recently about some things I have accumulated this year that have really been used a ton. I figured why not share them with you guys! So today here are my 10 favorite purchases this year. I will be honest that a few of these were gifted, but honestly after using them I would buy them again and again!
10 Favorite Purchases This Year
Salad Chopper: So this is a weird one to start with, but here’s the thing… I love salads. I was going to Salata and Whole Foods constantly to get chopped salads because I couldn’t figure out how to replicate it at home. Well once I saw this Salad Chopper I knew it was perfect. It seems gimicky but I use it at least twice a week. Chopped salads have been my jam this summer. You need this in your life!
Sole Society Bag: I snagged this during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and I love how it’s such a great dupe for the Givenchy bag! It goes with EVERYTHING and the quality can’t be beat.
Fresh Rose Toner: Fresh so generously let me spend a day shopping in their NorthPark store and this was one of the items suggested to me! I spray this on my face right after I wash it and let it dry. It really lets my serum and moisturizer soak in.
Dyson Hairdryer: Dyson sent me this hairdryer to try and you can read my full review here. This thing is AMAAAAZING! It dries super fast and my hair has never been healthier.
Kono Wine: So random right? Well at a friends kiddos b-day party she poured me a glass of this and holy yum! It’s legit the only wine I drink now!
Adidas Sandals: I remember having a pair of these in middle school and basically living in them. So YAY for things coming back around. These have been my go to shoe to throw on for errands, Liam’s swim class, and everything in between.
Nike Joggers: I saw a blogger friend post about these and I immediately ordered them! This was MONTHS ago and I finally broke them out recently and have been LIVING in them!
Barefoot Dreams Blanket: Another Nordstrom Anniversary Sale purchase. I love Barefoot Dreams sweaters so of course a blanket needed to happen. Do I sleep with it every night? Maybe.
Fresh SPF lip balm: Another sweet gift from the lovelies at Fresh. I have always loved the Sugar Lip Blam and this one with SPF is perfect for the summer or anytime you are outside.
Go Strap: I believe I actually got this in late 2016 so this one is kind of a cheat but having a baby I use this all the time. Its great to loop my finger through with my larger iPhone and make sure I don’t drop it!
Do you have any favorite purchases this year? Let me know!
I need a salad chopper too! I know it’s not a necessity, but given how much I love salads and how often I consume them… it’s justified!

I’m a sucker for a good lipstick with SPF in it! I feel like lips are always ignored when it comes to applying sunscreen.
I live in my Adidas Sandals as well!
The salad chopper, the wine and the blanket!! I am considering purchasing those. I love lists like this! Thanks for sharing!
I see so many people with straps and knobs on their iPhones for easier holding.
I don’t know why I’ve been holding out. I usually don’t drop my phone, but I need it propped up from time to time.
Great list! I tried to snag the sole society bag not too long ago and it was sold out from the sale. Such a cute bag!! I’m going to have to try the Kono wine! 🙂
thats a great list ! I would love that Salad Chopper! I also love salad but its so much effort to make one 😀
Great idea of a blog post! Most of my picks would be from my wardrobe LOL. I need to get my hands on that Dyson dryer thou!

I’ve never heard of that wine before but I totally think I need to check it out. Thanks for the rec Neely!
I hadn’t even heard that Dyson made a hair dryer. I’m thinking about this year and haven’t really bought much this year so no real favorites.
Suddenly I need all of your favorite things, especially those joggers❤️
You had me at ADIDAS sandals, I have not worn those in years. They were always my favorite brand to purchase growing up and they are super comfy. I will have to give them a try for wear around the home sandals, as I usually wear sandals or flip flops around the house.
That hair dryer looks great! I got a couple pairs of joggers this year and love them. I’m not sure why I took so long to take the plunge because they are comfy and surprisingly cute!!!
I have been dying to try the Dyson hair dryer. Is it worth the price? How fast does it really dry?!
Ok you have a great list here. I will need to check some of these products out!
I definitely need to get a new hair dryer! I will definitely check the Dyson hair dryer out!
Oh, always looking for a good hairdryer recommendation. Definitely going to look into Dyson!
I’m obsessed with lip balm so I’ll definitely have to try that one by fresh!
Nike joggers and rose toner would also be in my list!! I would love to try the Dyson- I mean I love my vacuum so I’m sure I would love the hairdryer.
I’m a fan of Sugar lip balm too! And this year I finally got myself a cherry pitter after years and years of suffering without one lol! I should not have waited so long 🙂
I’m definitely going to have to try the SPF lip balm since we go to the beach 2-3 times a week!

I love that Toner and am a fan of Sugar lip balm as well.
I got my first pair of joggers this year (it was actually a jogger and crop top set) and holy smokes they feel amazing! I love to wear them when I’m traveling, in fact the fact that I was so comfortable in them yesterday made my extra long delay bearable, and they’re also great for running errands!
Oh, I think that hairdryer seems so cool! Glad you love it! What a fun post idea.
Oooh, salad chopper, joggers and go strap and now on my list of things to get! Thanks for sharing!
I was actually looking at a gimmicky salad chopper online this afternoon! I eat several salads a week. This looks AWESOME. It’s going on my wish list for the next special splurge I make!
I want to try that hair dryer! That sounds amazing!
I am totally looking into the Dyson Hairdryer for when mine dies. I have two Dyson vacuums and absolutely love both!
Salad choppers are life changing! Such a small thing, but makes a huge difference!
I love your Sole Society bag!! I have been dying for one just like it!
dying for a dyson dryer. can’t quite justify yet! I too love barefoot dream things. My twins take home outfits 🙂
I would love a salad chopper. All of my kids love salads, and there is 7 of them so that would make my job much easier!
After reading this I think that I have added some new things to my list 🙂
It seems like you’ve found a bunch of fun little goodies recently! I’ll have to try some of them soon!
That’s a great list! I’ve never heard of that wine before! I need to check it out!
Ooh, I have been wanting one of those Dyson hairdryers! One of these days! 🙂
