    The swimsuit link goes to the pants!

    Thank you for that vacuum rec! Haha, it saved me having to research this weekend. We are both in much different lives from when I started reading your blog in 2012 but I know your recs have remained excellent all this time.

    Thank you for the vacuum link – I saw it when you posted it on IG but didn’t save it, and I desperately need a new vacuum.

  4. Rachel says:

    Seconding the recommendation on the Sephora eyeliner/shadow pencils! I have several colors and I reach for them over other options almost every day. Smooth application, easy to sharpen, and so inexpensive!

    Thank you Abra for your continued excellent content! 👏👏👏
