It is the first Tuesday of the month and that means it is time to link up with Tanya for Prime Purchases.
I did not buy much in the month of September! But, what I did buy is really, really good.
One of my best friends, Heather, turned 50 and I did a “Favorites” theme. I typed up 50 favorite things about her/memories we share, too.
I bought her the Donna Karan cashmere mist deoderant because she also really appreciates nice smells like I do. Also, this is something that many won’t buy for themselves. I was not implying that she stinks at all! Also, I bought mine at the end of May and I still have some product left. I think that makes it way less per wear than some other ones I have used.
She loves Tyler candles and the Diva laundry soap, so I got her a 3 pack of the air freshener.
And, I got her the beaded champagne earrings like I have.
I think she really liked my kinda hodgepodge gift!
And, I have been wanting a sweater vest…
I ordered this one and it is super soft and not scratchy at all. I am deciding if I need to go down a size because it is kinda long.
I plan to wear it just as she is with one of my button downs under it!
What have you purchased this month?

I love the gifts you gave your friend and I’m sure she does too! They are very thoughtful and I bet she’s enjoying them. I like that sweater vest – can’t wait to see it on you!

Thank you! I hope so! I need to style the vest and possibly try tucking it. I may need to size down due to length alone but I want to have room for the shirt underneath and I am seeing a lot of oversized vests.

I love giving and receiving gifts like the ones you gave your friends! I always think you can never go wrong with several fun things. Would you believe I didn’t buy anything this month from Amazon, other than my subscription items? It was a good thing…we needed a spending break there!

Me too! That’s awesome! You had your trip approaching so probably that made a difference. Did you read Hotel Nantucket? The end of the book has tons of Nantucket recommendations!

I have bought way too much and moved on! LOL! I did just order the sweater you posted about. I had it saved to my wish list, but I took your advice and sized down one. So we shall see! I did also order some new outdoor flameless timer candles for my porch and patio lanterns. So we shall see. I didnt want to order luminar brand – never know when one will “disappear” off my porch. Although we have been super fortunate and haven’t had issues with that.

Some months are like that! Let me know about your vest. I need to try mine on with an outfit and see. I might tuck in the front a bit?

I have a similar vest and I’ve worn it a lot! It’s great with beige tights!

Oh how cool! I don’t know if it’s long enough for me for leggings! Will check!

Yeah, you say leggings! Of course I don’t wear it with just tights… In Sweden we call leggings tights… You can wear something longer white underneath if the vest is too short (borrow a long white t-shirt from your husband or the boys)
