One of my favorite things about blogging, or rather the blogging community and social media is that we can share our favorite products with each other. A photo of an outfit or an accessory you’d love to buy pop up on your Instagram feed? Well then, check to see if the brand was tagged in the photo, comments, or mentioned on the like to know it app. When it comes to learning about a new product especially makeup, I check to see what some of my favorite bloggers and YouTubers are saying about, before I even consider buying it. I saw a post like this on another blog and was inspired to create my own version so I could share with you some of the products that I’ve been loving lately. Here are 5 of my favorite purchases I made so far this year.
My Favorite Purchases So Far This Year

Ubeesize Phone Tripod 50”: I bought this Tripod a few months ago at the very beginning of the health crisis because I thought it would help me create some amazing shots and I wasn’t sure if there was always going to be someone to help me if I wanted to take a photo or two. I love this thing, I’ve only used it a few times since I bought it, but playing around with it create angles for shots has been fun even if it’s sometimes difficult to do. I know I’ve only scratched the surface of what I’ll be able to do with my tripod, but I’m having fun with it. I bought it on Amazon for a great price. The best part is that it’s lightweight so it’s easy to carry and pick up from the ground to manipulate the height (it’s the setting it back down I have trouble with while in my wheelchair). This tripod also had a carrying case and a remote.
Tao Tronics Lap Desk: This was actually my mom’s idea, she bought one and I started using it more than she was so I bought a few for myself. When I’m working on my computer I’m usually in my wheelchair leaning forward since the chair can’t completely fit under the table due to the legs, or I was until I started using these tables. The table makes it so easy to sit on the couch and work without putting the table on my lap. When I want to move around a bit, I’ll even sit on the floor and work. I love using these desks, they are adjustable and come in 3 colors, I bought two. I bought this desk on Amazon for a great price too.
HPYGN Resistance Bands Set: I was introduced to Resistance bands by my high school physical therapist and I loved working with them ever since. When I decided to get back into working out, the first thing I wanted to get was resistance bands. I loved my equipment-free workouts because I could easily do some reps while watching tv or listening to music or, but I felt like I was doing more using the bands. It took me a while to find a set that I actually liked using, but now that I have them I don’t mind picking them up for a quick arm workout, *if I do any leg work with them, I’ll need help.) This is another amazon purchase I’m glad I made especially since I was able to get these bands for approximately 11 dollars.
Baby Pink Day Dreamer Printed Oversized T-shirt From Pretty Little Thing: I had seen Pretty Little Thing’s clothing often enough to finally give the brand a chance. When I went shopping on the website, I didn’t really have anything on my shopping list that I felt I needed to buy at the moment but I was thrilled to find a few items including this adorable oversized t-shirt. I have only worn it a couple of times, but I’m looking forward to wearing it this fall because even though it’s short-sleeved the material is slightly warmer than most of my t-shirts and it can be layered.
Trista Bootie From DSW In Beige: Finally, a purchase not from amazon. I can’t always wear the shoes I want to wear, but I love love love boots. I fell in love with these boots when I first saw them and ordered them right away. The color looks a little darker than I first expected, but I love them nonetheless. These boots are from the Journee Collection a brand I’ve loved for a while, the Trista bootie is simple with a small heel and a cute tassel delta making it slightly more elegant in my opinion.
I’ve been loving all of these products and I’m excited to see what my next great find will be. Have you tried any of these products? If so, what did you think? Do you have any product recommendations? I would love to know what some of your favorite purchases are.
