From fashion, to beauty to home decor, and all the random things in between, the team is sharing our favorite purchases of 2020. We’ve got a few favorites that made our wallets a bit lighter, and we’ve got favorites as low as $5! Take a peek at what we’re deeming our absolute favorite purchases from 2020, and you might just be finding a few of your new favorites as well!

PS. We asked all of YOU what your favorite purchases of 2020 were! Here were your favorites:
