October felt like the perfect mix of cozy moments and everyday chaos — crisp mornings, soccer sidelines, pumpkin muffins, and all. As the month wrapped up, I found myself jotting down a few of the little things that brought me joy — the small comforts, discoveries, and routines that made the season feel extra special. Here are 13 things that brightened my October.
BEAUTY / SKINCARE
- An empty I re-ordered: This oil cleanser was gifted to me a few months back and quickly became a favorite. I love massaging it into dry skin — it melts everything off and leaves my skin nourished, not stripped. code MARYCREW15.
- An empty I re-ordered: Our whole family now uses this clean shampoo and conditioner — I just stocked up on the refill bags to pour back into the reusable aluminum bottles (LOVE their sustainability!).
- An empty I re-ordered: I swear I sleep better after lathering on this body oil — it dries instantly and the subtle scent is so calming.
FASHION / ACCESSORIES
- I switched to a card wallet a few years ago and haven’t looked back — just ordered this one and love the sleek, minimal look.
- Consider me sold on these “It Girl” jeans I’ve been seeing everywhere in LA — I’ve been wearing them several days a week.
- I do a little dance when these buttery-soft pajamas are at the top of my drawer. Ordered a fresh pair for the holidays in this red stripe.
- Loving these new Warby Parker sunglasses — classic and polished, they go with everything.
- A J.Crew jacket that’s quickly became a go-to layering piece this month.
- Two newest adds from tuckernuck – this black blouse and this workout tank that’s become part of my daily rotation — simple, flattering, and comfortable.
- The Eby bra continues to be one of my most-worn basics — supportive, seamless, and genuinely comfortable.
HOME
- Finally invested in Away luggage, and I can already tell it’s going to make holiday travel so much easier.
- The Canvas Wine Bottle Tote from Lands’ End is such a cute (and practical) hostess gift — sturdy, classic, and perfect for the holidays ahead.
- We’ve been loving the Canopy Humidifier — it looks chic on a nightstand and makes such a difference as the weather gets drier.
