Looking for a holiday deal? Shop Local + Shop Small: Denver edition

COVID has devastated the horizon for small businesses throughout the United States. Maybe you were directly affected, maybe you weren’t. Odds are you know someone who was—whether they lost their job, got sick, or couldn’t see family for (what feels like) decades. This holiday it’s extremely important to put a focus on shopping small. It’s what drives our economy, directly helps those in our communities, and makes a bigger difference than one can imagine.

A current and previous entrepreneur, I empathize with small businesses that are struggling to stay afloat as COVID regulations tighten. I often think ‘it could’ve been me.’ I’m excited to use this platform to share some great small businesses in the Denver community. You can get better deals with higher quality right here in our hometown! Seriously!

My go-to boutique in Denver. At Lady Jones you’ll find quality, everyday, timeless staples. Every piece I’ve purchased from LJ in the past few years are still hanging in my closet looking solid. Nicole, the owner, has an eye for buying pieces real-life everyday girls want to feel good, stylish, and comfortable. Lady Jones opened a store in Vail over the past year plus launched a brand new website. Talk about a hard working boss babe?!!

Fun story: When I first started blogging I was asked to be featured in LoHi Lifestyle Magazine. I wanted to share spring trends and knew I loved everything in LJ. I asked if they would be interested in partnering for my photoshoot and they extended the warmest, most sincere partnership. I truly value this company.

Remember this hat?

Yep, the one I wear in a lot of my photos! I got it at Lady Jones and wear it all the time. A unique, beautiful hat that I wear often. It’s hand-made of the finest materials and molds to your head. Whether you buy it for yourself or surprise someone special it’s a piece everyone will be ahhhhing about.

My favorite jeans

These are my go-to jeans. I’ve actually never had a pair of jeans that were this soft, molded to me, and made me want to live in them. They are the perfect with a variety of shoes with the leg opening and length. I suggest sizing down one size and letting them stretch and mold to you because they will stretch! For size reference, I’m usually a 26 or 27. I went with a 26 and so happy I did.

As I was walking through Sloan’s Lake Farm & Flea, Vital You bath bombs caught my attention. Not only did I admire their beauty, I learned about how they source organic and local ingredients making small batches—only 16 at a time. I knew then and there I needed to try them. Ahhh, they are a luxury like no other! The initial drop in is always fun to watch sizzle and release beautiful herbs and florals. Once you soak and feel the CBD relax your body you feel like you’ve escaped to a spa.

These make great holiday gifts! Even the guys love them. Andrew would use one every day if I let him. Cute stocking stuffers!

We shopped for all of our Christmas greenery and tree at O’Toole’s Garden Centers at their Lakewood location. The staff was extremely helpful, the selection was huge, and the quality is proving to be top notch! I look forward to buying plants here once the holidays are over too.
