I’m definitely one of the curly hair girls that mostly wear their hair straight in the colder months. Straight hair is just easier to maintain in the hectic winter months. However, in an effort to cut back on applying heat to my hair, I’ve recently been wearing it curly, which has allowed me to try some new hair products for the curls.
If you want to find out why my hair has been loving these hair product and if they might work for you, keep reading.

LUST-HAVE LIST: January 2024
Happy New Year! I hope you had a nice holiday season and got plenty of rest. Also, let’s aim to give 2024 all that we got so it can reward us, because 2023 was insane.
Honestly, I’m very hopeful for 2024, because I would hate to think or expect it to get worse. I still don’t do New Year Resolutions and will spend the rest of Winter hibernating and thinking about my revival list for Spring. Plus, I think we all need to rest after the holidays and for as long as possible; for mental health.
As I’ve mentioned before, my September LHL is my birthday wish list. The December LHL is my Christmas wishlist but the January list is things I wish I asked for Christmas. It never fails, starting 2 days before Christmas, I start thinking of things I wish I asked to receive. This year was no different and here is the January 2024 Lust-Have List of things I wish I got.
Keep reading to see the list and why I want them.

eSTYLIST: Winter 2023 Uniform
Winter is here and so is my go-to Winter outfit! If I’m being honest, I would/will be wear leggings and oversized t-shirts for the most part. Honestly, having a job where you can lowkey “come as you are” has really allowed me to leisurely most days. However, one of my plans for the new year is to get “dressed” more, because the “Adam Sandler running errands look” is wearing out on me.
Don’t get it confused – I’m not planning to break out heels and dresses. The goal is to look like I tried and care sometimes. So, keep reading for the details!

LINK-END ROUND-UP: December 8, 2023
Happy Friday, ladies and lads! How was your week? Mine was fine and just fine, because seasonal depression felt like it was showing up. Thankfully, I’ve learned some coping mechanisms over the years on how to deal with it. I even included a link below on how to cope with certain holiday triggers.
I don’t have any plans for this weekend, which I need to enjoy. This might be my last clear weekend for the rest of the year, because I’m planning to complete all my Christmas shopping next weekend. This is starting to become my norm, because there aren’t many “must get before they sell out” things on my list. I think I’m hoping that procrastinating will have me score some last minute deals. *fingers crossed*
I still haven’t reworked my Christmas tree. So, I might do that this weekend, plus some of my lights had the nerve to go out. So, I might be buying more Christmas lights this weekend. *insert the biggest eye roll in the history of eye rolls*
I hope you have a great weekend and please check out this week’s Link-End Round-Up and the articles about dealing with holiday triggers.

GIFT GUIDE: Gifts for Him
Here’s another gift guide, but this time for the gents. Shopping for men can be easy, but also hard. I’m firm believer in people telling me what they want so I can get it. Unfortunately, you may still have to find something they will love and didn’t know they wanted. My top love language is gift giving and I love when I give someone a gift and they immediately love it.
Although this gift guide is gifts for him, I think a lot of this items can be for all. Personally, there are a couple of things on this list, I wouldn’t mind receiving myself. Check out this Gifts for Him gift guide.
