1. A smocked mini dress for whenever you're running late, which is pretty much always. Just slip this on, pair it with any shoe, throw your hair into a chic messy bun (emphasis on the messy), and that's it! You're ready. No one will notice that you were *ahem* 45 minutes late.
2. A SKINFOOD finishing powder formulated with peach extract and calamin powder. Swipe this onto the most oily patches of your face (*stares at t-zone*), and rest assured that you will remain shine-free all day long.
3. A Two Minute Mornings journal with a dedicated page for each morning that asks what you will let go of, what you are grateful for, and what you will focus one. Consider this simple tradition to be your dedicated ~me time~, a practice that helps you start each day on the right foot.
4. A ~busty bralette~ specifically designed for D-DDD cup sizes. This harmonious blend of comfort and support is made of pixie dust and dream particles, because that's how great it is.
5. A waterproof vinyl sticker for anyone who spent their Fourth of July indoors, waffle in hand, ignoring fireworks and human contact, just to binge the entire third season. Demogorgon > barbecues.
6. An Invisibobble you’ll want to start carrying around on your wrist ASAP. This genius accessory will keep your mane out of your face without causing any dents in the process. You’ll be able to take your hair out of your pony and BAM! It won’t look as if you had it in an updo for several hours.
7. A hand-painted jacket that takes an ordinary piece of denim and turns it into a legitimate piece of pet-inspired art. Walking around wearing a shrine to my favorite four-legged being on earth? Pinch me. I must be dreaming.
8. An Ello glass bottle you can hypothetically fill with other liquids — tea, juice, etc. — without having to worry about the taste lingering even after you've washed it several times. All you'll taste is pure water.
9. A cruelty-free Milani baked blush for a buildable, natural pop of pink that instantly gives even the most tired skin a healthy flush. Who slept eight hours last night? Not you! But hey, at least it'll look like you got your beauty sleep.
10. A Freeman clay mask with mint and lemon extracts that work to minimize the appearance of pores, vacuum up excess grease, and keep breakouts at bay. This is especially great for summer because the cooling mint will feel like heaven on especially scorching hot days.
11. Strappy Blowfish sandals that are sure to become your partner in summertime crime. Batman has Robin, Serena has Blair, and you’ll have these shoes.
12. A bottle of gluten-free Savannah Bee Company Tupelo Honey you'll want to keep stocked in your kitchen at all times. Add this to everything from teas and pastries to your morning yogurt for an extra dose of sweetness. Your taste buds will thank you.
13. A pack of trendy hair clips that have the ability to take a boring white tee and turn it into something significantly more stylish. Plus, they keep your hair out of your face? I'm sure you already know that, but I felt it was worth specifying.
14. A knot-front suit complete with removable straps. Now don't be discouraged, but this is guaranteed to have you humming 🎶 itsy bitsy teenie weenie 🎶 even though you are wearing neither a bikini or the color yellow.
15. An Aquapaw Slow Treater to take the hassle out of pet bathing and grooming: just use the suction cup on the back to adhere it to any surface, add in some peanut butter between the silicone nubs, and boom! Your dog is now fully distracted and shampooing will no longer be a hassle.
16. Vitamin e-infused makeup wipes available in individually-sized packets, meaning you can stash one in your purse to cleanse your face of dirt, oil, and makeup on the go. Cleaning your face on a NYC subway? Consider it possible.
17. A marble ceramic mug that will turn morning coffee into an even better experience, by way of a fantastic pun. Life truly is brew-tiful when one has a cup of caffeine in their hands, isn't it?
18. A Celeb Luxury color depositing shampoo to turn your ~Pinterest pastel~ dreams into a reality (no expensive or time-consuming trips to the salon required). *uses shampoo once* *posts 'gram pic with the hashtag #hairgoals*
19. A Soap & Glory cooling body scrub with coconut shell and pink jojoba exfoliator balls for refreshed, glowing skin that's so soft that it would intimidate even the smoothest of baby bottoms.
20. A cold shoulder maxi dress so trendy, it's practically a requirement to have a photo shoot whilst wearing it. Congratulations on your newest #ootd, now prepare for at least 500K new followers.
21. Bottle Bright cleaning tablets to quickly remove all that funky, gross, probably-starting-to-smell build-up in the above bottle. These are biodegradable, chlorine-free, and — best of all — require absolutely NO effort or scrubbing.
22. Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt, a nonfiction read set in the beautiful city of Savannah. The story begins with a murder (or was it — DUN DUN — self-defense) in one of the grandest mansions in the city, but the humor and cast of interesting characters are what make this such a compelling story.
23. A Remington wand capable of doing the Impossible (yes, Impossible with a capital "I"). This miracle tool allows even the straightest of manes to hold the most beautiful beach waves: Just wrap your hair around the barrel, wait a few seconds, and you're done! Minimal effort required. Several tears shed.
24. A cruelty-free Elizabeth Mott bronzer that will a) give your face some color even if you've been stuck in your cubicle and haven't seen the sun in several days, and b) give SOME CONTOUR. What's that? Chiseled cheekbones worthy of a modeling contract?
25. A weighted OXO sinkware caddy perfect for storing all of your most mundane items upright: I'm talking about dish sponges, dish brushes, tooth brushes, and toothpaste.
26. A mini wrap dress you should truly pack in your carry-on. If your luggage gets lost (which has never happened to me hahahaha), have peace of mind knowing that you can wear this *one* item every single day of your vacation.
27. A gentle La Roche-Posay cream cleanser that easily picks up makeup and impurities...all while maintaining your natural pH balance/not stripping your complexion of moisture. People with dry-to-normal skin, break out the party hats because it's time to REJOICE.
28. A Philips alarm clock that mimics natural light and gradually brightens over 30 minutes, meaning you'll feel as if you're waking up with the sunrise and your own internal clock as opposed to the jarring noise of a typical alarm.
29. A paraben- and sulfate-free OUIA spray infused with rice protein to give volume and texture to any 'do without weighing it down in the process. Just spray a bit into damp hair for immediate just-left-the-beach waves.
30. A hardshell case so that your sunglasses have an actual shot at survival. I get it. They're inexpensive. But flinging them into your purse will just lead to scratches, scuffs, and heartache so please...just put them in this damn case.
31. Assorted greeting cards because you're already barely going to make it to the party on time. With this boxed set, you'll have a card (for any darn occasion) on hand at all times. No more last-minute runs to the drugstore while already being 45 minutes behind schedule.
32. A handmade doormat you can customize with your family name. Folks, if you're looking for unique gift ideas for both parents and grandparents alike... then this is it. The perfect gift.
33. A belt buckle fedora hat because "I didn't feel like washing my hair" days are inevitable and the heart can't live on dry shampoo alone. Grease, meet your new best friend.
34. A limited-edition Estée Lauder palette packed with eight gorgeous shades in sparkle, pearl, and matte finishes. Perfect for both face and eyelids, these buildable shades will give you that ultimate natural glow.
35. Hand-poured candles perfect for people who are, yes, homesick. This will allow your new abode to smell exactly like your home state! For example, New York smells like autumn (imagine notes of pumpkin and apple orchards) while Tennessee is inspired by notes of bergamot, tea, single-malt whiskey, and magnolia.
