Here's what Scary Mommy editors bought and loved from Amazon this month. Many of the items are perfect for stocking stuffers (yes, it's nearly time for that), self-care, and surviving holiday chaos.
If you've caught yourself asking, "Is it OK if I shower quickly?" more times than you'd like to admit, then you know it might be time for a complete system reboot. You need to feel like a real person again — not just the family scheduler — so what if you traded those chaotic carpools for the ultimate city calm?
While the overall energy of NYC is loud, fast, and a little extra, The Wall Street Hotel feels like an exhale in the middle of it all. Their goal is to make you feel at home, inviting guests into warm spaces with skyline views and plush details. Each room is equipped with a bar cart that's stocked with whatever you need (because you've earned it). The best part? Enjoy Michelin-star food without leaving your bed, thanks to the in-room dining service. Whether it's one night or the whole weekend, call it what it is: a break that's just for you. Not for the family. Not for the calendar. Just you.
If your version of self-care involves people-watching and martinis, this is your spot. Romer Hell's Kitchen is stylish, social, and loud in a fun way (aka, not nonstop nagging). So take this as your proof that you're still interesting outside of school pickup.
Swap errands for energy. Rooftop pool? Check. Killer views? Obviously. The vibe at Virgin Hotels New York is playful, flirty, and just the right amount of chaos — which, for once, isn't yours to manage. In fact, the Exhale Spa has your name on it.
