All I Want for Christmas 2021 - Part II
NURTURED 9’S CO-FOUNDER LAURYN SHARES SOME NEW MOM CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEAS AND WHAT’S ON HER HOLIDAY LIST!
This year has been funny for me because having our new, awesome Nurtured 9 studio means I'm living in my loungewear less and less, and I am constantly schlepping all of mine and my girls' daily needs to and from work, school, daycare, home, Miima & Papi's, (& our local watering hole). So, for my list this year, I have sought out some of my favorite items for on the fly.
One of our lockdown investments was a fancy pants coffee maker, so we could have our favorite barista style coffees at home. Flash forward and now I need to be able to take these coffees to go! I have searched far and wide--spilled, dropped, leaked, and frustratingly tried to cram numerous to go mugs into my cupholder. And finally, I have found the perfect to go mug by Soma in the most chic two-tone cream & white color with wood top. It might be (IS) true love.
One thing about Tucson is it is DRY. And so, on my list this year of items I need in my bag of tricks are Henne's Blomma Luxury Hand Cream and Kari Gran's Rosie Gold Lip Whip. I was literally just commiserating with my best friend here about how dry our hands and lips get and how we need a zillion lotions and lip balms to keep...everywhere. These will not only tick that box, but they are so luxurious, it will feel like a real treat every time I use it in between drop offs, pick ups, trips to the park & grocery store.
Actually, come to think of it, let's add Noshinku's Hand Sanitizer to that list too. If there were ever an elevated hand sanitizer, THIS IS IT. The vessel alone is enough to make a not so fun ritual feel truly special.
Then, when I finally do get home, I want to be comfy...but I've gotten accustomed to being in real clothes now, so my oversized and overused (read gross) sweats need an upgrade. I think our new Burgundy Lace Nightgown (non-maternity style for me, since pregnancy days are behind me) will do just that. It is so incredibly silky to the touch, but the lace accent and color make it downright...well, sexy. And hey, that makes me feel good.
And to top it off, (because I deserve it, thank you!!) Tucson has been unseasonably warm so far this winter, and so the Cozy Ribbed Knit Robe is PERFECT for the chilly mornings without making me overheat. I also love (and have heard this sentiment reverberated by some of our customers!) that there are tailored sleeves vs the usual flowy style that can get caught on things or dragged in messes. When we designed it, we thought it would add a cool touch stylistically, but I was thrilled to find that it wound up being a functional perk too!
Happy Holidays everyone!!
