Nollapelli’s better-for-you-bedding is wellness while you sleep. The signature fabric is designed to restore you, your skin, and your hair, giving you the best rest you’ve ever had. Investing in your sleep isn’t just a luxury, it’s a must-have. The bedding is engineered to give bodies what they need to sleep well and wake up looking and feeling fantastic, night after night, day after day.

The folks behind Nollapelli, a brand that makes bedding (and face masks!) with a propriety fabric designed to nourish skin and hair, rather than damaging them. The brand was kind of enough to send me samples of their product, and from here on out, I plan to be much more aware of everything that goes on my face.

Nollapelli began as a sleep brand, created in reaction to the fact that a lot of the sheets and pillowcases people use on a nightly basis actually interfere with their ability to get a great night‘s sleep, while also being bad for skin and hair. Most sheets absorb the moisture we release as sweat in our sleep, and when we sleep on these sheets, we get bedhead and skin damage, as well as discomfort.

When the team got to work looking for the perfect good-for-you fabric, trying silk, cotton, linen, and bamboo, none of them were quite what they were looking for. Instead, they set out to create something novel, blending natural and synthetic yarns to make a new fabric that‘s actually good for your skin. The result was a 45% Tencel lyocell, 35% nylon, and 20% cotton blend, more breathable than pure cotton yet easier to care for, reduces sweating, and doesn‘t soak up the body‘s moisture, which means healthier skin and hair. Their products are actually designed with the users in mind, which really sets them apart from the rest.

Nollapelli has achieved exactly what they set out to do, and I adore both their products. The fabric is breathable, comfortable to the touch, and doesn‘t retain moisture, which makes my skin feel incredible. The fact that I don‘t have to flip my pillowcases multiple times to settle in and get comfy at night.

I have had my eye on these Spanx Faux Leather Leggings for the past year. I am so happy when they agreed to let me try them this holiday season. They did not disappoint. These are perfect leggings for all you are doing this season. They are really comfortable. It is a total compliment magnet. Featuring the contoured Power Waistband, this style gives you a flat stomach and a great butt.

There are multiple colors, but I love the black one the best. They are available in multiple lengths like petite, plus, and tall. I went with the petite size. The Spanx leather leggings have your traditional sleek look. The vertical detailing near the knee is iconic.

They look amazing on, there is a little stretch to them. They are perfect to pair with an oversized button-down shirt, black turtleneck and so much more.  I find myself reaching for them more often than my jeans.

These leggings are stylish and also great for travel. They can be dressed up for a night on the town or down for a low-key look during the day. Whatever way you choose to wear them, you will always look put together.

With the weather being what it has been the past few years, it was important for me to find some tools that would help me keep track of the weather better.

Founded in 1943, Chaney Instrument Co. and its AcuRite brand have earned a long-standing reputation as a leading manufacturer of weather products and devices to enhance the monitoring of your connected home environment.

In 1987, Chaney Instrument Co. became a subsidiary of the Primex Family of Companies, a family-owned business headquartered in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Shortly after, Chaney Instrument Co. quickly grew to become one of the largest and most trusted manufacturers of quartz clock movements in the U.S., ultimately achieving an annual output of over 10 million clock motors. The company’s continued focus on innovation and technology led to (among other noteworthy accomplishments) the pioneering of a successful line of analog atomic clocks in 1998.

More recently, by building innovative, dependable weather sensors and smart home devices that keep you connected to your world, AcuRite has earned the title of North America’s #1 weather monitoring brand. Even though we’ve reached that top spot, we are not resting on our laurels. We remain committed to bringing you the best products that keep you informed about your environment.

AcuRite is known for its ease of use, reliable quality, and precision accuracy.

I really was interested in testing out the AcuRite Temperature and Humidity Station. The AcuRite weather station can do it all: it can tell you the temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed, and wind direction. It also tells you the moon phase, indoor comfort level and the “feels like” temperature. This easy-to-read device has an illuminated color display with an adjustable dimmer.

It is not only a great device for the home but is also a useful option for gardeners, farmers, utility workers. You can completely rely on Acurite Atlas as your personal home weather station. The device offers you real-time updates on your smartphone, desktop, and tablet. You also get an amazing HD touchscreen display console that looks great in every room.

The other piece that I love from AcuRite was the Indoor/Outdoor Round Double-Sided Hanging Clock. It is a really beautiful piece. The piece is suitable for outside and inside and is weather resistant.

As far as the mechanism, it’s what I’m used to seeing from AcuRite with a small battery-powered clock module and a temperature module on the back of each clock face. It’s basically two clocks in one, so don’t count on them always showing the same time.

I have it just outside our porch, so whether you are relaxing inside or out tending to the garden, you can just turn your head and see the time. Once it is hanging you can turn the clock to change the angle it faces. This added instant charm to my garden.

For the price, size, and quality it is a great gift. It reminds me of an old train station clock. If you have someone who is interested in learning more about the weather, then definitely check out the products from AcuRite.
