$139.99
Every man — nay, person — needs a pair of solid white sneakers and I love what OnCloud has down with theirs. There are a million players in this game right now but this iteration seems fresh and edgy without losing the versatility of a white leather sneaker. Plus, OnCloud just seems to be building momentum as a brand so having these on your feet can only be a good thing.
$360
Anyone who either has to commute into an office or shoots with any kind of camera knows the struggle of finding a stylish bag that still holds up and carries everything you need. Backpacks are unprofessional, full on briefcases are cheesy… enter, the Tefors Ultimatum Bag. I can’t afford it but my soul wants it.
$25-$50
Now gifting scents can be incredibly difficult because they’re so specific and personal and also usually incredibly expensive. I am a big fan of Creed Aventus, but it runs around $300 full price. I found Dossier and they have exact dupes of that scent and SO many more. This way, you can gift your partner the scent you’ve always wanted them to try without the huge investment up front.
$30-$60
Nothing is more timeless than the LL Bean Boat and Tote. Growing up your parents may have used it and it’s time to face two realities: your parents have good taste, and you are also rapidly approaching the age they were when they bought one. I unashamedly love these - for groceries, beach days, gym days, whatever. They go with anything. They are also endlessly customizable - long handles, zipper top, monograms, colors, you name it.
$100
As a sportier alternative to the ROGER, Vans Ultrarange are a sensible option. These have been around a couple of years and I just haven’t seen them take off the way I thought they would, but everytime I see them on someone’s feet I’m like, “Yes.” Absolutely.
$34.99
Anyone that has ever had any sort of gym routine probably owns their “gym water bottle” or maybe even an actual shaker bottle. I’ve been wanting to try this new variety from BruMate that seems very sleek. It’s got a built in agitator/diffuser in the top so you don’t get clumps, they have a straw lid version you can buy… all sorts of nice stuff.
$89
Now I know $89 for slippers is a lot but HEAR ME OUT. These are SINFULLY good slippers and will last you MANY years. The shearling lining conforms to your foot and INSULATES those puppies. Like my feet are chronically blocks of ice and these honestly bordered on making them sweaty. They’re durable enough to go to the mailbox in but comfy enough to wear around the house. Every single person in my family has these. They’re worth it.
$159
Again, I know $159 for a BLANKET seems outrageous, and you’re right. It is. But also this BLANKET is outrageous. As a tall person the inability to have a blanket cover my whole body is MADDENING so forget trying to snuggle with someone else. This is enough room to cover me, my boyfriend, our dog, our cat, and three of our friends who inevitably are in our home constantly. I’m sold.
$395
Okay, I had to throw in one REALLY outlandish things in there, and this is that. I wouldn’t probably get this for myself because I am cheap, but the reviews look insane and I think there is no higher form of self-care than skincare. It’s a long term investment, okay??
