We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A pair of opaque fleece-lined tights because they're warm without being annoyingly bulky. Thanks to these, you can say hello to wearing shorts, skirts, and dresses in the wintertime!
Promising review: "Most comfortable leggings in the world. These were a gift for my daughter. She loves leggings, but usually leggings are cold in winter. She called and said she loved them. The lining was so soft and warm! A good value for the price!" —Cynthia M. Stone
Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in seven colors and with footed/non-footed options).
2. The famous Alleyoop 4-in-1 makeup brush that features an eyeshadow brush, a blush brush, a brow brush, *and* a blending sponge! It's the perfect size to keep in your purse for touch-ups throughout the day, and for saving space in your makeup bag.
Alleoop is a woman-owned small biz that takes "beauty efficiency" to a new level. Most of their products are compact and have multiple functions!
Promising review: "It's a staple for my work makeup routine...The angled brow brush is great for using with a brow pomade. The eyeshadow brush is surprisingly versatile! I can do an outer corner shade, middle shade, inner corner shade and the lower lash shade as well. I used a clean makeup-removing cloth that is perfect for switching colors and also keeps my brushes soft and pliable... The sponge is great for blending out eye primer, but it’s advertised as being best used for blending concealer and it nails it." —Ayndie
Get it from Amazon for $28 (clip the coupon on the product page to save 5%) or straight from Alleyoop for $19.60 (originally $28).
3. A super plush and cozy "dog bed for humans" so you can have the kind of naps your furry family members have. You know, the drooling, tongue out, not-a-sound-will-bother-you kind of nap they ALL have after a hard day of being cute. It's super soft with the faux fur, but the slight firmess of the bed will make it impossible to leave.
Promising review: "I saw this online and decided that I'm giving it a try. I have a hard time sleeping without feeling support around me. I toss and turn over 40 times per night according to my sleep app. I tried this hoping for the best and I will say, I slept like a baby for the first time in seven years. I put a pillow under each side to prop it up to make it cradle in more and I’m in heaven. I'm 57 and have had a hard time dealing with the emptiness of divorce. Who needs a man when you’ve got this to sleep in? Purchase it! You won’t regret it. And best of all, no one snoring next to me! Win, win!" —Heavenstinyangels
Get it from Amazon for $179.99 (available in two sizes and four colors).
4. A bottle of Drop It, a wine sulfate and tannin remover that helps prevent that annoying wine-headache and any sinus or allergic reactions you may have after drinking.
Drop It recommends 1–2 drops for each glass of white wine, 2–3 for a glass of red, and 7–9 if you're treating the whole bottle at once. Once it's in the glass, swirl lightly for 20 seconds, and you're good to go.
Promising review: "YOU NEED THIS STUFF! This stuff is almost unreal. It’s a tiny bottle of mercy drops sent down from God him/herself. I had sworn off alcohol the past couple of months because it made me feel terrible the next day. You know the deal...tired, throbbing head, bloated feeling, congestion, the hangover works. I was skeptical about this product but figured I’d try it based on the reviews. I’m so glad I did because this will now be a staple in my life.
For reference, my boyfriend and I split a bottle of Malbec wine (14.2% ABV), put the recommended amount of drops into the bottle, and swirled it around. Typically we both would have woken up with nasty hangover symptoms but we oddly woke up feeling refreshed. I did not drink a lot of water with my wine so as to offset the potential hangover, so I know it was all on this little bottle of heaven... It’s flavorless so you don’t notice it’s addition whatsoever. Excellent product." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $13.99.
5. AND with wine headaches in the past, a four-piece set of two-toned wineglasses perfect for entertaining guests at your upcoming holiday parties or nights in with your besties. The glass shape and the colors are so unique!
Promising review: "Love these glasses. I purchased these glasses in the peach color and they are so pretty! They are also more durable than they look. Highly recommend !!" —HeyEzzy
Get a set of four from Anthropologie for $72 (available in three colors).
P.S. there are matching coupe glasses available, too and they're stunning!
6. A Bluetooth-enabled record player so when you aren't playing a vinyl record from your collection, you have the option to play something from your phone. It comes in 19 colors, too! So you're bound to find one you love.
Promising review: "This thing is great! The output is great. Very loud and clear with no distortion. I put the first record on it this morning and the audio quality and overall functionality is awesome. It also makes a great bluetooth speaker as well. The briefcase design makes it great for moving it room to room or traveling places with it. I highly recommend this turntable to both the beginner who's looking to get into vinyl and even the hardcore collector who is just looking for something more portable with some good sound!" —D. Morris
Get it from Amazon for $49.98+ (available in 35 colors).
7. A rose-gold rechargeable electric lighter that'll ensure you never have to worry about running out of lighter fuel again. Isn't that the dream for a candle hoarder — er, I mean candle lover?
BuzzFeed editor Emma Lord loves this lighter and says, "It comes in other pretty colors, but I am especially partial to this one because I bought it for my parents (their kitchen is entirely pink and one of my favorite places on Earth), and this was SO EASY to use — not to mention super safe! It worked like a charm on their stove, which needs to be lit by hand. I use it all all my candles now too. I'm a big weenie about fire (lol, self-preservation) so I've always stuck to extended arm gas lighters, but this is much better for the environment (plus cuter), so I feel a lot better about using it."
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in 10 colors and multipacks).
8. Laneige's Lip Sleeping Mask — a number one bestseller for very good, well-earned reasons! After a night with this on, you'll wake up to moisturized, hydrated lips that are softer than ever.
BTW, some people use it as a daily lip balm or lip protectant over their lipstick too!
Laneige is an Asian-owned brand that has been in the beauty game for years (seriously, since the 90s!). The luxury brand prides itself on being affordable too, and has many fan-favorite products because of it.
Promising reviews: "Holy freakin grail!! I pick at my lips so they’re constantly chapped and raw. I used this once and by the second day all the dry/dead skin had come off and my lips were softer than I’ve ever felt. Totally worth the money and smells amazing!!" —Anissamarie01
"Lives up to ALL the hype. Holy grail amazing product. I have been chapstick-obsessed since birth, and this product goes above and beyond. I carry it around in my purse and use it every day and my lips look super glowy and hydrated, and it lasts a long time after application. I'm slowly collecting every shade." —honeycbxdger
Get it from Sephora for $24 (available in six scents) or from Amazon for $24 (available in eight scents).
9. An Ember temperature-control smart mug to keep your coffee and tea as hot as when you first poured it. It's all controlled through the app where you choose your desired temperature and can even make presets for specific beverages. Fancy stuff, right?
Promising review: "Best thing since sliced bread! I hate when my coffee gets cold. I was originally looking for one of those warming coasters, but then I saw the Ember mugs...there was no turning back. I can take my coffee with me into my bosses office and it still stays hot?? Yes please. I used that app and have adjusted my temp down to 127 degrees. It stays at that temperature the entire time. I’ve not had an issue with battery life either, doesn’t take me more than an hour to polish off a cup of coffee. I HIGHLY recommend." —Mathews
Get it from Amazon for $113.99+ (available in black, red, white, and multiple metallic options).
10. A set of memory foam gel pads that work as support for your wrists, giving them relief from being in the same position eight hours a day. They'll help prevent cramping and wrist pain, which can put a damper in anyone's work or gaming time.
It comes in two pieces — one you can prop in front of your keyboard, and the other in front of your mouse.

Promising review: "For someone who works from home all day in front of their computer, this is the support you need for your arms, eventually without this, your wrists start to hurt from the constant movement. I recommend this to not only gamers but to anyone with a home office or anyone who stays in front of their computer for long amounts of time. It's a great product, very comfortable on your arms, and the perfect size for a moderate-size desk." —Eray
Get it from Amazon for $13.98+ (available in 18 colors).
11. A waterproof Kindle Paperwhite for when you want to read in the bathtub, in the hot tub, or by the pool. It's got an adjustable built-in light and an anti-glare screen, so no worries about reading at night or out in the bright sun (a big bookworm no-no).
Promising review: "I LOVE my Kindle. It’s so convenient and lightweight. It has so many little features that make reading so much easier. I love that I can read in the dark, don’t have to worry about saving my spot, and don’t have to worry about searching for the book I want because everything is in one place! I also love that you can adjust the font, size, and display. I love that you can hold down a word and instantly see the definition or the context. I love everything about it. Worth every penny!!" —Emmy
Get it from Amazon for $139.99 (available in three colors).
12. AND a remote control page turner so you can easily continue the story on their e-reader — even from far away! It works for Kindles, iPads, and Andriod tablets, too.
Promising reviews: "It is easy to set up, easy to use. It works great! I love how small it is so it doesn't block the words when reading. And it looks nice as well." —Tori Sherer
"I cannot stress enough how much I love this. To be able to put my arms under the covers and turn the page, game changer!" —Richelle L.
Get it from Amazon for $32.99.
13. A *leak-proof* Simple Modern tumbler — yes, the insulated tumbler you keep seeing all over TikTok. Reviewers say the hype is real *and* well-deserved. It comes in tons of great colors and is almost half the price of the also viral Stanley Cup. Do you need this? I think yes.
Promising review: "Obsessed with this one! Had the Classic 28oz tumbler that lasted for over two years and decided it was time to let go and get a bigger one. For the longest I struggled deciding between Simple Modern and Stanley, so glad I stayed with this brand! Not only is it cheaper, I love solid matte black anything and everything, so this is just perfect! Keeps my water cold for hours and fits in my car cup holder." —Allyza Rafols
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in 42 colors).
14. Rare Beauty Soft Pinch liquid blush that's a fan fave and has reviewers obsessed with the highly pigmented, super-lightweight formula. You've even got the choice between dewy and matte finishes!
This Latine-owned business (from founder Selena Gomez, to be more specific!) was launched in 2020 with the goal of helping people celebrate their individuality and their own beauty, nixing the world's impossible beauty standards in the process. And BTW, all Rare Beauty products are vegan and cruelty-free!
Promising review: "Love love love!! I'm obsessed with the color and the formula!! So pigmented, easy to blend, and long-lasting. I have oily skin and this is the only cream/liquid blush that doesn’t make my skin greasy but glowy and look natural." —Phoebenguyenn
Get it from Sephora for $23 (available in 14 shades).
15. A super versatile convertible cargo skirt sure to leave people shocked and impressed at the same time. This beaut is both a midi *and* a mini skirt — how cool is that!?
Get it from Urban Outfitters for $135 (available in women's sizes 2–10).
16. A Bissell Little Green Multi-Purpose Cleaner, the best-selling portable carpet and upholstery cleaning machine that's *super* convenient and very easy to use! It works for dirt, pet stains, baby stains, and because it's cordless, you can use it to clean your car, too.
Promising reviews: "This has saved me so many times. I use it mostly for my carpet and the couch. With having a cat and dog with an almost white couch, this has been SUPER helpful. It has yet to fail me." —Amazon Customer
"This little guy has been working pretty well for me so far. Raising my puppy from eight weeks, I've had my share of things to try and get out of the carpet, from pee stains to puke to things he would knock over, to the mud he would track in. This would get most of it out if I used it right away. ... That being said, I am happy with the way it takes out most stains and has not failed me yet." —Cece
Get it from Amazon for $123.59+.
BTW, this tool comes with small bottles of ready-to-use cleaning formula, but if you need more, grab a bigger bottle for $9.98!
17. An easy-to-use SodaStream so you'll have yummy, refreshing sparkling water whenever you want it! Not only will this limit plastic bottle use, but you'll save tons of $$$ not buying cases of LaCroix every month. 😅
The SodaStream also comes with a 60-liter CO2 cylinder and a one-liter BPA-free reusable carbonating bottle! Reviewers suggest also buying two CO2 cartridges and trying various natural fruit flavors to spice things up!
Promising review: "The new Soda Stream Terra is great. If you like, making carbonated water or sodas, this product is wonderful. It is super easy to use, especially because it incorporates the new quick-connect technology for the CO2 container... I opted for the non-electric version because it was cheaper...You can also move it around or store it away very easily because there are no electrical cords. It’s entirely powered by the CO2 cartridge. You just pump the top a few times, and the CO2 does the rest... No more lugging heavy packs or bottles of soda home from the grocery store... Since the carbonation is as fresh as possible, the taste is superior to cans or bottles as well. I use mine every day and now I don’t think I could live without it." —DylanP
Get it from Amazon for $99.99 (available in four colors).
Check out BuzzFeed editor Abby Kass's full SodaStream review.
18. A set of airtight glass meal prep containers because they're microwave-, dishwasher-, and freezer-safe and have leakproof lids! These bad boys will save you time, and each container even has up to three compartments for easy food separation.
This set comes with nine lids and containers: three with 1 compartment, three with 2 compartments, and three with 3 compartments.

A 2-in-1 satin/microfiber towel pillowcase so you can go to bed with wet hair and not have to worry about ruining your pillow or waking up with a cold thanks to the super absorbent yet gentle microfiber towel side.

P.S. these covers fit standard size pillows!
DryZzz is a woman-owned small biz founded by two sisters in Miami, Florida. A portion of their proceeds goes to Sofia’s Hope Inc. to fund pediatric cancer research.
Promising review: "The pillowcase is hands down, the best I have ever used! I always take night showers and go to bed with wet hair. I've used a towel over my old pillowcases for years and I always wake up with a damp pillow and the towel on the bed. With this pillowcase, I don't have that problem! The microfiber side absorbs the moisture from my hair and the other side is a nice soft satin for those nights I don't go to bed with wet hair. I will never go back to a normal pillowcase again! I never write product reviews, but I just had to with this product. It was that good! Basically, BUY THIS PILLOWCASE!!!!" —Kristen Chorney
Get it from Amazon for $35.95+ (available in four satin colors, four cotton colors, and a white double-sided microfiber towel case)
20. A sleek knitted drawstring balaclava hood you'll be able to wear with any jacket, sweater, or top in your closet. And having cold-weather protection always? Priceless.
Promising review: "I have been looking for something like this for years. The quality is excellent, knit is heavy, soft yarn, and the color is as displayed. I purchased light gray. The hood stays up and hugs the front of the face, allowing me to see sideways while driving. You can cinch it tighter to cover your mouth in sub-zero weather." —BoondocksWI
Get it from Amazon for $21.50 (available in 16 colors).
21. Freck Beauty's lash-enhancing eyeliner to help your lashes grow over time with each use. So not only will you have a killer cat-eye, but you're stimulating lash growth at the same time!
This liner has easily become an essential for me (seriously, I've never switched a makeup product so fast). I wear eyeliner pretty often, so having one that gives me an awesome benefit like LENGTHENING MY LASHES? I'm sold. I've even noticed my lashes become a little fuller after using it for about a month. The formula is pigmented and very long lasting. Now I'm just waiting for more colors at this point. 🤷🏾♀️
Freck Beauty is a woman-owned business based in Los Angeles. The company started off with Freck OG and has since grown to facial masks, eye creams, serums, and more.
Promising reviews: "I am obsessed with this eyeliner! The tip applicator makes it easy to use with max precision! It lasts all day and no issues with smudging. My lashes even appear fuller after using this constantly the past few weeks!" —CeeRenee
"I'M OBSESSED WITH THIS EYELINER!!! The application is so easy to just swipe and put on my eyes. It’s not waterproof, but seems like it! To the touch, it won’t rub off, but with a makeup remover it comes off very easily. 11/10!!!!" —kitkato24
Get it from Sephora or straight from Freck Beauty for $24.
22. A towel warmer so you aren't shivering after a shower or bath. That is literally the opposite of cozy and we can't have that!
It can fit up to two towels and has a 15-minute adjustable timer.
Promising review: "After reading lots of reviews on several different towel warmers, I bought this product for my mom for Christmas. I tested it out before giving it to her. It works great! The timer looks so sleek and fancy. Even at only 15 minutes, you get a nice warm towel! 10/10 would recommend! Already thinking of buying one for myself!" —Kaylee Spence
Get it from Amazon for $139.99.
23. A top-rated, soft and cozy Parachute Cloud Cotton Robe you can lounge around in because you deserve it. And yes, it has pockets!
Soooo, to get to the point: yes, this robe is 100% worth it and it has ~earned~ being called a cloud robe. I received the Amber one (a mustard yellow tone) as a Christmas gift a few years ago and it is one of the best robes I've ever owned. For one, the pockets are huge and big enough for my phone, snacks, and my hair ties I constantly lose. Second, it's just really, really comfortable, super soft, lightweight, and very warm! Throwing this on while I make myself a cup of coffee in the mornings is a daily routine of mine. And occasionally putting it on after a shower and wearing it while I apply my face masks is a huuuge step in my self-care routine. If you've been debating on this robe — GET. IT. 👏🏾
Promising reviews: "Truly a cloud. This material is so soft and buttery. Very high quality and super comfy and chic." —Jennifer Z.
"Sweetest little robe I ever owned! I've had many robes, but this soft, lightweight robe is by far my favorite. I will definitely be purchasing more...for myself and as gifts for others." —Johanna H.
Get it from Parachute for $109 (available in unisex sizes XS–3X and in seven colors).
24. A bag re-sealer so you can securely close the snack bag you didn't finish and keep it fresh until you're ready for more.
This gadget heats up and clamps bags shut with its corrugated hot plates, so you can keep your snacks fresh!
Promising review: "Love this little bag sealer. I have kids so constantly have open bags of chips that go stale because they are left open on the counter. With this, I can reseal them and keep them fresh. I also do it with my babies' teething snacks so I can stop throwing them away... And it doesn’t get extremely hot so I can trust my 10-year-old to do it as well." —Katrina
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in six colors).
25. Solawave red light therapy wand that's essentially a multifaceted beauty genius in one small tool. You've got red light therapy that helps fade discoloration, microcurrents that stimulate facial muscles and lift skin, and therapeutic warmth to decrease redness and help your skin absorb your skincare products even more. It's like having a pro-level facial right at home, and I'm here for it!
This. gadget. is. worth it! 👏🏾 Using the Solawave was my first time introducing red light therapy into my skincare routine and the difference in my hyperpigmentation is honestly mind blowing. The tone of my face is much more even and the dark circles around my eyes have nearly disappeared. Essentially, it's like a mix of a jade roller (which I already love using anyway) and an LED mask in one...with microcurrent/vibration therapy, too. You can apply the specific Solawave activating serum or any conductive gel of your choice (I use a different one, myself!) and it will really absorb the benefits when used with the wand. I only use it once every other day (at night) and it's super relaxing. My skin is always ✨glowing✨ the next day!
Solawave is a LGBTQ-owned small biz based in Los Angeles.
Get it from Amazon for or straight from Solawave for $169 (available in three colors).
26. Some silicone soup cubes so you can cook as much as you want, without any of your delicious belly-warming dinner going to waste. It comes with a lid and is made of silicone that makes it super easy to get out when you're ready for it.
Promising review: "These are the perfect size for homemade soup. One section is one serving, so we got two two-serving pieces. The lids fit perfectly and I’m able to freeze soups and then put the big cubes into freezer bags for storage. They’re soft silicone so it’s really easy to get the frozen soup out of the container. This was a bargain for how well-made they are and how well they work. Saves the family time and money." —Shelly Valladolid
Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (available in four colors).
27. A wrinkle release spray for when you're in a rush and taking out the ironing board will make you even more late than you already are. With a few spritzes of this stuff, you'll be good to go!
Promising review: "HOLY SMOKES. I wasn't expecting this product to work so well. Literally 10 seconds after spraying and gently stretching as the directions suggested, this was the difference! I let it hang for another 15 minutes with a subtle improvement, but the first few seconds after were mind-blowing." —Desiree
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $19.98.
28. An Apple AirTag you can keep in your wallet, purse, or attach to your keys so that your morning isn't spent in a frantic while you look for each of 'em. And when you're traveling, toss it in your checked luggage for some extra piece of mind.
To track your item, simply use your Find My iPhone app! The AirTag will even make noise if you select "Play Sound" in the app.
Promising review: "You NEED this. I lose everything. Literally everything. I bought this for my car keys first as they’re what I lose the most. I fell in love right away as it makes mornings so much easier and smoother now that I’m not running around to find my keys — I simply grab my phone and let the Airtag do its magic. Now I’ve installed this on my backpack and my three PETS!" —brianna portales
Get it from Amazon for $27.

29. A jar of the bestselling Pink Stuff to tackle the hard-to-get stains, dirt, and rust spots around the house. It works for everything from bathtubs and stovetops to tennis shoes and crayon-covered walls.
Promising reviews: "Unbelievable. I saw this on TikTok and decided to try it. It was amazing! I couldn't believe it. I just bought a house and it needed a deep cleaning and this stuff is amazing. I'm buying the kit, I'm hooked. I don't write reviews often but you need this stuff!" —Amazon Customer
"If you have hard water, you NEED this. Our shower is cleaned daily but the hard water was impossible to get out. Now it looks brand-new!!! 100% recommend!!" —elena
"Um, if you have a toddler at home, you need this! ...The pencil which I would normally scrub off with a magic eraser (and I mean, SCRUB), wiped right off with this stuff! Same with the crayon on the tile, which couldn’t be scrubbed off normally. Then came the grout… took some minor scrubbing and it was good as new! I was shocked at how little work I had to put in to get it out!" —Gretchen
Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (available in three sizes and multipacks).
30. LilyAna Naturals' eye cream that'll help you hide how tired you really are after a long week. The rose hip and hibiscus-infused eye cream helps reduce dark circles and puffiness, leaving your eyes to look bright and wide (or alert and awake).
Promising review: "I’m OBSESSED! I always have trouble with eye creams because my skin in general is very sensitive and dry. Usually I get a bad rash or my eyes tear up when using eye creams so I just stopped using them. I decided to give this one a try with all the great reviews and I’m so glad I did! Super hydrating, doesn’t make me tear up and sits well under makeup!... It did instantly hydrate my under eyes with no reaction and had a brightening effect that made me look less tired!...Can’t beat the price of this either, definitely worth a try!" —D
Get it from Amazon for $15.27+ (available in three sizes).
31. A best-selling cotton weighted blanket because it can promote better sleep and is basically just a calming hug when you need one. It's filled with natural glass beads on the inside for weighted pressure that some reviewers say helps with insomnia and anxiety.
Read more about the effects of weighted blankets at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "I bought this as a gift for my wife a few weeks ago — she was very skeptical when she opened the box and took it out, but since then she has used it every night and she absolutely loves it! It does help her relax and sleep better." —Max G
Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in 17 weights/sizes and 25 colors).
32. A necklace detangling clasp so tangled jewelry can be a thing of the past (and so will the worry of ruining your favorite pieces along with it). With this cool magnetic clasp, your necklaces will lay *right* where you want them to... and stay that way!
Promising review: "This is my second one! Love it so much since it can keep my necklaces safe and untangled with its strong magnet. Safe me so much time layering all the necklaces I have. Literally takes one second to put on!" —Nichole Li

33. An Instant Pot 9-in-1 pressure cooker great for making all of the warm and cozy meals your heart desires — stew, chili, you name it. It features 15 pre-programmed and customizable cooking settings for things as simple as soup or rice, to more complicated ventures like slow cooking and sautéing.
This Instant Pot happens to be a #1 best seller with over 36,000 5-star reviews!
Promising reviews: "I thought the hype was just hype, but this is the kitchen tool I didn't know I would love as much as I do. From frozen to cooked chicken while retaining more moisture than any other method I am used to using." —Amanda T.
"If you're wondering if the hype about instant pots is legit, I'm here to tell you that it IS and you need one. It's really helped me since I frequently forget to thaw meat the night before. Also, being able to throw everything in and have a fantastic white chicken chili come out in less than an hour, is just ideal... It came with a little recipe booklet, as well as a cheat sheet of reference times for cooking, which is hugely helpful, since I don't always want to Google for every single thing I cook. It works as a slow cooker, pressure cooker, has a saute function, can cook rice, make yogurt, steam eggs, and basically anything else you want. It's been helpful for me because I've been able to branch out into different meats that I might not normally have the time or know-how to cook properly. If you're stressed about safety, this is reassuring because the directions are very clear, and it locks in. I was really freaked the first time I used it, and knew nothing about pressure cookers or Instant Pots at all the first day....Anyways, the amount of cupboard space this takes up is worth it, and if we had a bigger kitchen I would leave it out all the time on the counter. I love it THAT much." —emrev
Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in three sizes).
34. A quilted versatile crossbody bag that can be worn two ways thanks to the canvas and chain straps attached. When you're out and about: crossbody, when you've got a hot date: shoulder bag.
This bag has four components you can mix and match: the bag itself, a smaller quilted pouch, a fabric strap, and a chain strap.
Promising review: "The bag came just as pictured! It also comes with a dust bag (huge plus for storing). I love that the chain, coin bag, and shoulder strap are all removable. This bag is really chic and classy for on-the-go errands while looking effortlessly fashionable. It’s nice that there are no logos on it too, so that it has a clean look overall. I love this bag so much, definitely worth purchasing!" —Samantha Vo
Get it from Amazon for $33.99 (available in four colors).
35. A Bluetooth typewriter keyboard with a holding slot for your iPad or tablet! Reviewers also use it for their laptops and entire WFH stations too, and just use the slot as a phone holder. If there was anything that'd motivate you after hours in front of a screen, it'd be this!
Promising reviews: "This little keyboard is awesome! Just like typing on a retro typewriter. I love the feel of the keys. Super easy to pair up with my phone and iPad. Highly recommend this!" —Michele Sanises
"Definitely worth the purchase. My favorite quality is that it holds my phone up too!! The keys stick up higher than a normal keyboard and it took some getting used to, but I love it.

37. An easy-to-use posture corrector to encourage you to sit up straighter and use better posture. And the benefits of that? No more slumping at your work desk, proper form during workouts, and potentially waaaay less neck, back, and shoulder pain in general.
Promising review: "So first off I have sciatic nerve pain and back pain issues. I also have had bad posture for years. This has solved all of those issues... Been using it for almost a month. Now I don't need it every day, I have very little to no sciatic nerve pain. My back pain is really just muscles gaining strength from supporting themselves correctly. It's comfortable to wear all day with no issues. I'd highly recommend this product. I have already suggested it to friends and family. If you have even just bad posture, get this. You'll be glad you did!!" —Joe
