June 21, 2022 – The newest Terra collection from Calpak is every sustainable jet-setter’s dream. Created using recycled water bottles, the dreamy luggage collection was designed to inspire wanderlust through an eco-friendly lens. We’d spring for the cool glacier blue backpack duffel, which is durable enough to protect your must-haves, whether you’re headed on a dream vacation or maybe planning a glamping getaway.

June 21, 2022 – If you’re any kind of astrology fan, we think one of these lovely star sign rose bunches is in your future. Like all of Venus Et Fleur’s eternity roses, these personalized arrangements are designed to last up to up to a year or longer with proper care, so while mercury might move in retrograde, just know these fragrant boxed stems will stay pristine.

June 21, 2022 – Stylist and Violet Book editor Leith Clark teamed up with Catbird on an elegant collection of accessories just in time for summer. And while you won’t go wrong with any one of the stylishly dainty jewelry pieces, we’d opt for the jasmine, violet, and bergamot scented candle to bring the collection’s ethereal feel into your space.

June 22, 2022 – It’s no secret we’re big Our Place fans, and thankfully we’ve got a new must-have from the brand to add to our wish list: Ovenware. Available in Our Place’s signature color palette, each five-piece set includes an ultraversatile oven pan (that also works as a stovetop griddle), a trio of stoneware baking dishes, as well as a reusable oven mat so you can bake, roast, crisp, braise, and sear to your heart’s content.

June 22, 2022 – Caraway’s newest black and white cookware is the ideal pick up for minimalist chefs who don’t like to sacrifice style. Designed to be seen both in use or not, it’s easy to dress up your kitchen with these limited edition monochrome options—not to mention each versatile four-piece set includes a fry, sauté, and sauce pan, as well as a handsome dutch oven.

June 23, 2022 – In case you’re not already privy to Ruggable’s spill-proof washable rugs, let this partnership between the brand and model, illustrator, and artist, Monica Ahanonu be your stylish introduction. For something colorful but not too bright, we recommend this geometric design that was inspired by the shapes of a cut-up pineapple and features a refreshing color blend of cream, chocolate brown, strawberry pink, cerulean blue, and orange.

June 23, 2022 – For their first foray out of seating, Sabai released the City Table: A forward-thinking coffee table design made in partnership with eco-focused company Cambium Carbon. Sourcing recycled steel and fallen urban trees from Baltimore for the table’s solid ash top, the table draws wider inspiration from New York City’s landscapes to combine “the best of the built world and natural environment.”

June 23, 2022 – Revival is another brand we were excited to see launch in a new category this month. For the first-ever bedding line, the brand developed the ultimate 300-count washed cotton bedding, certified by Oeko-Tex, to keep you cool and cozy all night long. We’re feeling particularly drawn to this checked pattern by textile artist Jenny Pennywood, which has been small batched dyed and prewashed for a perfectly lived-in feel.

June 25, 2022 – Looking to add some bold flavors to all your summer dishes? The latest from Acid League and Diaspora Co. should help. Together, the two brands have collaborated on a three-piece spice and vinegar kit that’ll incorporate unexpected hints of citrus to your meals through robust spices and a bright vinegar. And if you’re stumped on what to cook first, fret not—the brand’s recipe for Dhana Jeera-Chilli Dressing is perfect for veggies and meat alike.

June 27, 2022 – Yowie dropped new candle scents earlier this week and we can’t get over the cheeky inspirations and sleek packaging. If the party starts and ends with you, we recommend Soft Disco, a warm scent with notes of amber, musk, oud wood, and yuzu that’s “inspired by late nights spent on the dance floor and mornings with a hangover full of memories.”

June 28, 2022 – Since sun protection is always in vogue, Everyday Human’s new Take Five Reviving Aloe Mist is one summer essential we don’t think you should skip. Made with skin-friendly ingredients like hydrating aloe and redness-reducing hyaluronic acid, this multiuse face and body mist is designed to hydrate and calm sun drenched and dehydrated skin—just give it a quick spritz and go (5% of mist sales will also be donated to Planned Parenthood until the end of July to support the fight for reproductive rights.)

June 28, 2022 – If you’re looking for a more creative way to get your caffeine fix, we recommend Clevr’s limited edition Rose Matcha SuperLatte to brighten up your day. Designed in collaboration with professional Afro-Latina surfer and Clevr ambassador Nique Miller, Rose Matcha’s well-balanced mix of adaptogenic matcha, pure rose, and fair trade vanilla bean creates a burst of flavor with just enough of an energy boost to take you to and from all your summer activities.

June 28, 2022 – Anyone who’s looking to impress at the next dinner party will want to check out The Caker’s new Banana Cinnamon Cake Kit. While everything you’ll need to make this deliciously moist banana cake with oat crumble comes in a ready-to-assemble box mix, the brand only uses high-quality ingredients and even includes additional add-ons to take your confections to the next level.

June 28, 2022 – Liven up your kitchen with Cold Picnic’s first-ever kitchen range of napkins and tea towels. Dubbed the “Anytime Kitchen Linens,” these geometric prints are designed to elicit joy (and hide stains!) whether you’re setting the table or enjoying a meal together. Crafted in an airy linen-cotton blend, choose your favorite pattern for a more uniform look or mix and match them for optimal fun.

June 30, 2022 – Since nothing says summer like linen bedding, head to Brooklinen, as the brand just unveiled a limited edition duvet in a reversible tangerine and fuchsia stripe. Crafted in Portugal and prewashed for extra softness, this color block lover’s dream bedding is just the thing if you’ve been craving a visit to the coast of Italy. Did we mention it’s on sale right now, too?
