I have been in a jewelry phase for a few months now and I cannot get enough. I'm constantly torn between waiting to purchase expensive, 14K real gold jewelry and wanting a large selection of pieces to choose from. 

I want to be dripping in jewelry at all times; it makes me feel elevated, chic, and put together. Whenever I see photos of women on TikTok and Instagram that have incredible style, they always have their jewelry on and I love it.

Over the years, I've amassed a decent size collection that is a mix of higher quality, name brands like Tiffany & Co, Hermes, and Swarovski, costume jewelry from Tory Burch and Baublebar, and some cheaper pieces from Amazon. 

After 8 months in my apartment, I finally feel completely settled in. Every part of it feels finished (aside from one corner that I cannot figure out what to do with), and I owe a lot of those finishing touches to Amazon. 

When it comes to home decor, I'm not the most consistent. I like what I like and I sort of just throw everything together. Sometimes things flow, sometimes they don't. I don't know what aesthetic of home decor I love the most. I know what I don't like or what I didn't want: farmhouse, minimalism, all grey everything. I wanted pink, and glam but not overly girl or busy. 

It wasn't until the past month or so that I settled on an aesthetic and it's what I like to call vintage glam. It's gold accents, bows, arches, and tiny details. I don't know what I like until I see it and as I acquired the last few pieces, everything fell into place. 

I did a post a while ago about my apartment and where I got my furniture, etc, and most of it came from Wayfair, but a lot of the smaller details came from Amazon, as well as a few necessities that make things so much better. That's exactly what inspired this post... and at the end, I'll include some decor pieces I have my eye on to really make the vintage glam aesthetic pop. 

I did my first Amazon finds last year (which the widget seems to have disappeared so the post is kind of useless now) but I wanted to do another, more updated version. 

I've definitely slowed down on my Amazon shopping, especially when it comes to useless, impulsive buying but there are so many hidden gems nestled deep within the webs of Bezos' empire. I have found some of my favorite everyday items from just typing in a weird need into the Amazon search bar and solving a problem.

So from portable fans to beautiful dishes, I have found some great items on Amazon recently. Also, if you want to stay up to date on all my Amazon purchases and recommendations make sure to shop my storefront.  

 We're less than a week away from Christmas and it's way too late to buy gifts online...expect if you're shilling out your soul to Jeff Bezos and getting Prime Delivery from Amazon.

Sometimes I sit and wonder how Amazon has everything you could possibly need at a moment's notice and it's frightening but it comes in handy for when you need last minute gifts. 

This never happens to me but I'm shopping until the last minute; there are still a few smaller gifts I want to pick up and Amazon is the only way I'm going. I blame it on the fact that time is moving so fast for me and honestly, Christmas has snuck up on me even though I've been in the spirit since before Thanksgiving.

That being said, I've rounded up some great gift ideas from Amazon, that would be perfect for anyone on your list. To make things even better, all of the gifts are under $100. Let's get shopping!

 I am not proud of it but Amazon is an obsession. I mean, isn't it one for everyone? When I got my first debit card at 18 years old and was at college with no supervision, I ordered something off of Amazon daily. It was an issue then and it is an issue now.

Over the years I have definitely gotten better when it comes to ordering things off of Amazon but I'm not 100% cured; I have just gotten better at recognizing what is useful and necessary.

Amazon is just too easy to use and who doesn't love next-day delivery? It comes in handy on so many occasions, especially when you need something in a pinch or don't know where to go to find something.

At the same time, I have never really shared Amazon finds, I just haven't been one of those bloggers. I think it's mostly because I really only buy odds and ends versus fashion and beauty. I am more of a home, wellness, tech, and book type of Amazon shopper. But, I'm deciding now that I can share all my favorite finds, no matter how big or small! 

I've never used Amazon more than I have been in the past year or so. They've been the E-Commerce giant for so long but I feel like they have really stepped their game up in the past few years.

I was never one to purchase anything other than electronics or paper goods from them -- ordering beauty items and clothes just seemed wrong. I'm still not totally on board with ordering beauty from Amazon because I can never be too sure where the items are coming from.

Aside from all of that, I've really expanded how I use Amazon and there is a reason they are taking over the world. For example, whenever I'm out shopping, I'm constantly checking the Amazon app to see if I could get a better deal online.

Don't even get me started on Amazon Prime -- it's a game changer and if you don't already have it, please go subscribe.

I figured I'd put together my favorite finds from the shopping giant and share them with you!
