You’re Kasey: The One Who Can’t Resist Home Décor
“I’m that lady holding up the checkout line because charming knickknacks are just too hard to pass up. In my eyes, every room needs a candle burning, and cheeky mugs make peppermint tea taste even better. Plus, I always like to have a last-minute hostess gift on hand.”

You’re Emma: The One Who Loves a Good Night In
“I’m at the point in my life where cancelled plans, Netflix, and a bottle of red on a Friday night are equivalent to nirvana. So when I’m shopping, I never pass up a new nail polish for a DIY mani-pedi or a bag of gourmet popcorn (preferably drizzled with chocolate). All in the name of self-care, right?”

You’re John: The One Who Makes a Mean Drink
“Lately, I’ve been honing my at-home bartending skills, so stocking up on mixology tools has been top priority. Corkscrews, festive cocktail napkins, chic stir sticks, and kitschy shakers just keep hopping into my shopping cart. Now that my bar is stocked and ready, it’s time for merry libations all season long.”

You’re Bari: The One Who Loves to Treat Herself
“I make a point of relishing in a little me-time. Late nights and holiday parties take a toll on my usual beauty regimen, so skin-volumizing serums and hydrating creams do wonders for my face. Whenever I find myself in the impulse aisle, I feel like a kid in a candy shop. It’s the ultimate place to stock up on the latest in beauty.”
