Hello, hello! Lots to share today, and something I’m particularly excited about: lots of our Reader’s Digest eds and team members all tried Amazon’s bestselling Dragon Fit leggings and gave ‘em a review. Spoiler alert: they fit bodies of most shapes and sizes gloriously well *chef’s kiss* and I did throw myself down a mountain wearing them to see if they really held up as well as reviewers claimed. I am slightly miffed our TMBI photo desk didn’t use the photos of me splayed out on some cliffs in pursuit of fine journalism, but whatever. I included them below for your own reference.
Working on now:
Taste of Home: Best storage containers for potatoes (pitch me your affiliate-friendly retailers like amazon, wayfair, walmart, target, etc). Also open to expert commentary, but can’t be a brand expert… ya feel me? bryce@theluxuryspot.com
Family Handyman: Best ever car floor mats. Pitch me! Will be a feature piece for us. bryce@theluxuryspot.com

Here’s my wee lil filter-free (and otherwise makeup-free) face showing how this bestselling concealer works on mid-30s skin after a gazillion kids and sleepless nights. A public service of sorts for Reader’s Digest.
Whether you have pets or not, you NEED this vacuum. I tried it. I loved it. I’m living my best life with cleaner rugs now. I suspect RD audiences will agree.
Did I share my Hyperchiller review for Taste of Home yet? It’s up though. Best for iced coffee fanatics and those with limited brew options.
Jobs:
SoulCycle needs a new PR boss! Vroom.
NARS needs a new PR boss for… the whole world.
Musings:
Drove to Saratoga Springs a few days ago for my son’s state basketball tournament. Stopped at several of the mineral water fountains and just want to say 10/10 recommend as a quick weekend trip. A Hallmark channel-esque little town with way more Ralph Lauren sweaters than I expected (a departure from my granola-ish Woodstock lifestyle). Gorj landscapes and public park features! Probably going to write about it even though it wasn’t a work-related adventure by any stretch.
Did a lunch and learn-style PR zoom with Aly Walansky, Alex Frost, and the Approach Marketing gals last week. It was a lot of fun and super exciting to get to put some faces to very-familiar names! Also had a moment with the Chewy team last week and learned something VERY interesting. Anyone want to guess what one of their most popular/fastest-growing product segments is?
Also a major thank you to the LVPR gals. I never really announced role shifts or career moments as they happened (or even posted them anywhere), but a handful of super-sleuth PR folks seemed to find out and sent me some of the most delish congratulatory coffee I’ve ever had as a kind of remote latte date. YUM.
Affiliate trends coming shortly. Working on that data right now.
Me upon some cliffs in high-quality leggings. Not used by our photo team. Disappointed. It was a whole family affair to even get these shots. Also my butt is still slightly sore. Leggings totally held up though.
That’s it for now! Lots more coming tomorrow!
Just ordered the concealer and praying that it can diminish 14 years of sleepless nights! :-)
What is the fastest growing category for Chewy? Fresh food???
