Anytime that I slip into bed when my favorite sheets are on, I'm reminded of how nice it is to have nice sheets. Sometimes the most simple or "boring" things can make the biggest difference in your life. Things that make the mundane parts of everyday life a little bit more special or exciting. For me, little luxuries don't always have to be super expensive either. While some of those can be great too, anything that is an extra indulgence or adds superior comfort or convenience also counts in my book.
Some things are worth the splurge and for me, sheets are at the very top of the list. It's always sheets and shoes! You spend a lot of time in your bed so why not invest a little extra? I’m all for finessing your home environment and high quality sheets make a huge difference. I love great quality cotton in a higher thread-count, usually in the 600-700 range. I find it's the perfect weight that isn't too thin or heavy. My favorite brand is this one-- I usually go for their wrinkle defense line. They're a soft + smooth cotton that isn't stiff, doesn't pick + they wash perfectly.
+ COZY SOCKS
Fuzzy socks are totally underrated in my opinion + definitely a little luxury that doesn't have to be expensive (or can be!). They are honestly just the coziest things and I immediately feel better when I put on a pair. These are my favorite affordable pairs, however I love the Barefoot Dreams socks too if you're looking to splurge!
+ BUBBLE BATHS
If you've been here for awhile, you know about my love for bubble baths. I soak in the tub every single night and at this point it's become an essential step in my routine. It's my favorite time to relax + detox alone at the end of the day which is a luxury in itself, however you can also elevate things with luxury products, candles, a glass of wine, etc. I have an entire post all about my favorite bath products which I'll link here.
+ FANCY SALADS
My favorite thing lately has been treating myself to a delicious salad for lunch. I don't do it everyday, however sometimes it's just nice to treat yourself and splurge. For me this means $12-15 for lunch which isn't stupid expensive, however isn't something I want to do everyday. If I need a pick me up or just want to reward myself, I allow myself the splurge and I love it! Keeping it occasional makes it feel like a luxury + adds some excitement to life.
What's "worth the splurge" for you?
