There’s nothing quite like simply luxuries. Breaking a fresh loaf of bread, crisp on the outside and soft within… Air drying your bed linens in the summer sun, a nice lathering soap that smells divine, jumping in a swimming pool on a hot summer’s day, or my favorite - showering after a long day at the beach. When it comes to the home, I’m all about simply pleasures. Quality bedding, a stack of fluffy soft towels, and good hand lotion and lip balm are a few of my favorite things. What are yours? If you are looking to treat yourself to something wonderful, may I make a suggestion?

Lollia Life hand creams, candles and pillow cases. A freshly made bed topped with these pretty cases, a candle burning nearby, a vase of peonies and a good book just before bed… oh and wait, don’t forget to apply their Wish or Inspire silky soft hand cream. This is a nightly ritual for me and the only way that I can get a good night’s rest. And remember, don’t go from the laptop to the bed. Give yourself at least an hour or two to unwind for best results the next morning. You’ll wake feeling refreshed and ready for a new day.

So tell me, what simple pleasures are meaningful to you? Do you have any evening rituals before bed? May I make a good bedtime reading suggestion? Body + Soul magazine from Martha Stewart.
