What Kylie Kelce Can’t Live Without

I’ve been using this since high school when I started wearing makeup. I’m not a makeup-every-day person, but I have to have mascara. I will not wear any other brand. If I forget to pack it, I can just run into any local pharmacy, and it’s usually there. The orange tube is my tried and true because it gives me volume. One time in a pinch I had to get the green one, which was just fine. I’m not being mean about that one, but the orange is top-tier.

I used to not be faithful to any onedry shampoo. Then I tried Living Proof. It goes on so lightly and doesn’t turn your hair that chalky white that a lot of other ones do. I was looking for all these tips and tricks on applying it, like spraying it in before bed so it’ll sort of sink in better. There was a whole laundry list of things I found, but I don’t need to do any of that with this. I just get up, spray it on my hair, and go. For someone like me who sometimes has approximately 45 seconds to get ready with kids standing by, this is the kind of support I need.

I used to always wear a lanyard with a little coin purse attached up until three or four years ago. Once I had kids, I realized I needed a bit more room, so I graduated to Lululemon’s belt bags. I test the limits of its capacity every day, but this goes unmatched. I have it in all different colors: mint green, a slightly larger one branded for theEagles Autism Foundation, my standard black one, and one with the Lulu logo.

This Zoe Chicco necklace was a gift from my husband, Jason, as a reminder of our three greatest creations. He got me the W when Wyatt was born, and I didn’t take it off for four years until I updated it with the other two kids’ initials. It’s something I wear every single day. It’s part of their Itty Bitty collection and has these tiny initials of our girls on it. I’m really into understated, dainty jewelry over big pieces.

We lucked out because we had three girls. We’re rotating through clothes we bought for our first daughter now to our youngest, so we have gone through a lot of hand-me-downs. Sometimes they’ll get stained or start to unravel at the edges because kids wear them a million times and you wash them a million times. The Hanna Anderson PJs last forever. We still have some packed up, just in case there ends up being a fourth. It is the best investment, and they have the best, best sales.

I’ve wanted an Irish Wolfhound since I was itty bitty. We have one now that’s still with us that’s 180 pounds. He’s a big boy, and he requires a very large bed. The XXL version of this one can actually fit two Wolfhounds comfortably, which was a game changer. We could never find a dog bed that was that spacious. The covers on them are great, too. You just remove them like a bed sheet and wash them, and they’re super-durable.

We have the Sonos system in our house and recently got the Move speaker. It’s nice to be able to pick it up and take it with me in rooms that don’t normally have speakers. I also like it over headphones, because I can still hear our kids. Personally, I like listening to early-’90s R&B and hip-hop when I’m on my own. Missy Elliot, Ludacris, all that good stuff that speaks to your soul. When I’m with my girls, I get vetoed. We see eye-to-eye on some Beyoncé and Taylor, though.

It’s common knowledge that I have an obsession with the butter-pecan iced coffee. This drink is unreal. When it went out of season, I was very sad. I told the girls I coach for high-school field hockey about it, and they mourned with me over the loss. Then last year, when they announced it was coming back, the first thing the girls said to me when I showed up to practice was, “It’s coming back for good!” That was the first thing out of their mouths. I was like,These are my girls. They’ve got me.

It’s the best. I grew up on it. I think half of me is made of Wawa’s mac and cheese. One year for Lent, I gave it up because I was like,It’s getting a bit wrong how often I eat this.

I connected with HP over this outstanding resource for the neurodivergent community. They’re easy-to-make, free, printable puppets. You just goHP’s site, and there are so many options for different eyes, mouths, and other features you can pick from. I love that it encourages communication, enthusiasm, and expression. It’s for all ages. I’ll admit, I’m participating myself. My family’s so excited to do this at our home this summer on days it’s too hot to have a beach day.
