Buffy
If there's ever a New Year's resolution we can get behind, it's prioritizing our wellness — more specifically, getting quality zzzs. (If you need more inspo, check out our Sleep Week series). Is there anything that will make you want to crawl into bed more than cloudlike bedding? We don't think so.
4. Anthropologie Spectrum Wall Planner, $48
Anthropologie
Let's face it — we live in a digital world, and it's easy to turn to our phones and devices to jot down notes and plan for the day, month, or year. But there's nothing like putting pen to paper, which is why we don't plan on retiring our trusty wall calendars or planners anytime soon.
5. W&P Porter 8-Piece Fridge Bundle, $167
W&P
Ditch single-use plastics and opt for eco-friendly swaps instead for a more sustainable new year. One of the easiest ways to save is to invest in reusable food storage containers, like this bundle from W&P.
6. BioBidet BB-600 Ultimate Bidet Seat, $399
BioBidet
If bidets don't feel like the ultimate bathroom luxury, we don't know what is. This smart seat from BioBidet has everything from an adjustable heated seat to a warm air dryer to make your bathroom experience feel like a spa.
7. Dotted Line Grid Closet System Starter Kit, $249.99
Wayfair
Raise your hand if your closet is forever a work in progress. If matching hangers and storage bins won't cut it, opt for a new closet organization system, like this pick from Wayfair. It'll set you back a few hundred dollars, but compared to other options, it's quite the steal.
8. Foxtrot Ghia Pal(NO)ma, $60
Foxtrot
If you're going for a dry (or dryish) January, there are plenty of healthier alcohol finds or alcohol-free alternatives to which you can turn. This kit from Foxtrot comes with everything you need to make a dry-January-approved cocktail, including a tasty (and nonalcoholic) aperitif, sparkling mixer, sea salt, and edible flowers to top off your drink.
9. Papier Rise and Shine Wellness Journal, $32.99

Journaling has tons of benefits, from managing anxiety to reducing stress, but getting started can be tough. To get in the habit, try a guided wellness journal with questions and writing prompts.
10. Public Goods Candles (set of 3), $14.95
Public Goods
We love a soothing candle to keep us centered throughout the day, but not all candles are created equal. Keep an eye out for harmful chemicals and try to find nontoxic candles instead.
