1. An adjustable, opalescent ring that's delicate enough to rock every day, but eye-catching enough to stand out and score comments from many an admirer.
Promising review: "This is the perfect ring, and it’s so cheap! Normally I do not enjoy wearing rings because I subconsciously feel them on my finger, but this ring is so lightweight. I really love it!" —Ansley Snodgrass
Get it from Amazon for $12.95 (available in five styles).
2. An OMGworthy Golden Girls collage oven mitt so you won't have to ~blanche~ at the idea of pulling your hot lasagna out of the oven.
3. Gauzy, elastic waist shorts you're probably gonna want to buy in every color, since there's no shortage of ways you can wear 'em: as PJs, with a cute tee or tank tucked in, over a bathing suit, with a crop top...
Promising review: "Comfortable and cute. These are incredible shorts. They are VERY high waisted, and even being someone that exclusively wears high-waisted items, this pair of shorts is a little extreme. That being said, I just pull them down a little more. These would be the perfect shorts for a road trip as they’re breathable and comfortable, and the pleating and crinkle design on them makes wrinkles less noticeable." —Abby
Get them from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in women's sizes S–XL and in six colors).
4. An absolutely ingenious purse-cleaning sticky ball, because if you're anything like me, the price of being prepared with anything you could possibly need in your bag = a lot of dust, pretzel crumbs, hair, and bits of chipped nail polish (from rummaging) floating around at the bottom of your precious purse. This lil' friend has a washable and reusable sticky ball inside the plastic casing, so it'll roll around and collect all that grossness, and you can continue blissfully not cleaning your purse out for months at a time 😜.
Promising review: "Picks up a lot for being so little. This little ball is genius!! Rolls around in my purse, which I live out of. It picks up a lot of lint, debris, or even crumbs. Easy to find with the bright pink. Just remove and wash, and it’s ready to go again. The price was great and something I can use for years. If you live out of your purse, this a must have!!" —dj3biggs
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in two colors).
5. An adjustable foot hammock to make long days at your desk less miserable. Your tootsies can lounge like they're on a resort vacation while you inch ever closer to inbox zero.
Promising review: "I ordered this hammock because it was the only one I found that offered universal installation AND positive reviews. I attached it to the holes in my work desk that are for cords and cables. It works perfectly!! Bonus awesomeness: I have a pinched sciatic nerve, and using this hammock provides the perfect stretch for the piriformis muscle. If you've had sciatic pain, you know this muscle. It's also inconspicuous under my desk, so it doesn't draw attention when I'm using it." —AuntieD
Get it from Amazon for $20.97.
6. Shockingly lightweight and comfy floral clay statement earrings that'll make even a basic outfit suddenly *scream* spring. Oh, and take it from me — they're video call standouts.
IMHO, few things make a better impulse treat yourself buy than a cheap but oh-so-eye-candy-tastic piece of jewelry from Francesca's. When I walk into one of those stores, the abundance of under-$25 sparkle gives me an instant serotonin rush. Some of my all-time fave earrings come from there, and depending on the style, they tend to hold up pretty well for the price. TBH, I've had more expensive Baublebar earrings break much faster. I treated myself to a couple pairs recently, including these bbs, and I am OBSESSED. These are sturdy but sooooo light on your lobes. Seriously, even though I've worn heavy-ish earrings several days this week, it's almost 3 o' clock, and my ears haven't hurt after wearing these all day. Plus, the fun shape and colors (mint and lavender is my all-time fave color combo) draw attention to your gorgeous face. I've felt so cute in video meetings wearing these!
Get them from Francesca's for $15 (originally $24).
7. A cheerful rainbow kitchen tool set made from heat-resistant (up to 446 degrees!), BPA-free silicone that's an ideal bargain buy for starter cooks or anyone whose blah, beat-up tools could use a refresh.
The nine-piece set includes six different style spatulas and spreaders, a whisk, an egg separator, and a basting brush.
Promising review: "100% would recommend. Easily one of the best buys I've ever made for my kitchen. I love the different sizes, the colors, the durability, and the quantity. I use these almost exclusively now. I love love love baking and cooking, but I'm also a bit clumsy, so these are great. I accidentally left one on a burner while it was heating up for a moment, and it barely melted. I think this is a phenomenal price for a quality product." —Madilyne Palmer
Get it from Amazon for $14.97+ (available in three styles).
8. Stylish sheer socks with bold patterns that'll be the perfect finishing touches to spring outfits, especially peeking out of sneakers, chunky flats, booties, and — yes — even sandals.
Promising review: "Lucky find! I’m so glad to have bought them! Each pair is so unique and goes so well with Docs and loafers. I say the quality is pretty good! The mesh feels stronger than nylons, but they are still delicate. So as long as you don’t scratch or hook them with sharp things, they should be fine." —Zoe
Get a set of five from Amazon for $14.59+ (available in three styles).
9. A portable nail polish storage case that can hold up to 48 bottles and has adjustable compartments on the side for other tools and products, because your trusty nail polish collection deserves better than being shoved haphazardly in a drawer (and you deserve better than all that clutter).
I have this myself and while I wasn't sure about it at first, I'm now really glad I bought it. It's a lot larger than I expected, but once I started filling it up with my polishes, I realized it needs to be! There's room for 24 bottles plus other tools on each side, and so far I've only filled up one side — I feel that justifies the purchase of more nail polish, LOL! It definitely beats the sad Ziploc/loose counter storage I was using before. It's a bit too large for travel, unless you were to pop it at the bottom of a suitcase for a long-term trip, so I will just pull my fave polishes out and stash 'em in my toiletry bag when I'm on the go. But for displaying in my bathroom in my apartment, it's so aesthetically pleasing and makes me so happy! And I have the polishes inside organized by color, which makes me feel fancy. Two pro tips: 1) Don't try to open it when it's standing vertically, or things will fall out — lay it flat instead. 2) Decorate the sides with stickers, because your laptop is full, and you need a place to put all your extra stickers!!!! Or at least, that was an unexpected bonus for me. 😃
Promising review: "They are PERFECT for organizing and storing your nail polishes and tools. You can organize them by color, brand, season, however you want! The polishes take up less space, and you can clearly see them and choose what you want for your next mani. Also, you can store them upright just like salons do. They're perfect!" —Arielle Mansion
Get it from Amazon for $22.98.
10. A sugar-free spicy margarita infusion pouch full of spices, herbs, and dehydrated fruits and veggies you can use to create 8–10 perfect cocktails that'll be perfect for spring and summer. Let this infuse your tequila for a few days, and then just add your mixer and garnishes of choice, and you're ready to party!
This Black woman-owned and Grandville, Michigan-based small business specializes in handmade cocktail infusion kits — shop 'em all here!
Promising review: "Exceeded our expectations! Subtle but noticeable jalapeño bite that blends very well with the citrus and pineapple. We mixed with Fresca and a salted rim. Will buy again. And maybe even try infusing with vodka." —Meghan
11. A luxe-looking Rifle Paper Co. AirPods case so you can stash your on-the-go must-haves in style. I ~petal~ your friends will want one too.
Promising review: "I love this case! The pattern is so adorable, and it fits snugly around my AirPods. I love the little clip and the overall design. The cap and the base are not connected, but I don’t see an issue with it. I now feel the need to get a matching phone case; I love this so much!" —Elizabeth Stroka
Get it from Amazon for $15.96+ (available for AirPods generations 1–2 or 3 or Pro and in seven designs).
12. Amazingly affordable and almost unbearably cute floral kitty earrings, because florals? On cats? Groundbreaking.
If you're interested in adorbs earrings on a budget (and who among us is not?), this Pittsboro, North Carolina-based small biz has you covered.
Promising review: "These earrings are so cute! They manage to be sturdy quality without being too heavy (and I say this as someone who usually only wears stud earrings because I hate how dangly earrings pull down on my earlobe), and the enamel seems to be scratch-resistant too! I like the size of them a lot; they’re big enough that you can see the details on the cat easily, and they stand out, but they aren’t so big that they look gaudy or get in the way. The picture is a very accurate depiction of the actual item." —Ren
Get them from LulaBugJewelry on Etsy for $6.30.
13. Fuzzy slide slippers your cute PJ outfit is, I'm sorry, incomplete without.
Promising review: "They are super soft and comfy, PLUS they are open-toed — perfect summer slippers. Hard sole for outside wear but padded and comfy. I bought them because I am teleworking through the pandemic and therefore working in my pajamas, and I love it! Anyway, I have hardwood floors throughout the house, so I like to wear slippers, but Uggs and Dearfoams were both too hot! These are perfect! Great price too!!!" —Ms. Michelle
Get them from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in women's sizes 5/6–9.5/10.5 and in 10 colors and prints).
14. A squeeworthy set of bird sponges complete with a suction! cup! perch! so they can hang out on the side of your sink when not in use. Nope, this cuteness can't be ~beak~.
Promising review: "Adorable and functional. Yes, these absolutely are as cute as you hope they're going to be. These four little birds and their perch come packaged in a slim cardboard box. The sponges themselves are surprisingly thick and sturdy — very well made for a novelty item. They have a typical spongey part in the middle and a scrubby part on the outside. All of them fit perfectly on the plastic perch, which has a great little suction cup to attach to your sink. These would make a great gift as well as a fun addition to your own kitchen!" —CMD
Get a set of four and a perch from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in 13 other quirky designs).
15. A fun Loungefly blind box featuring one Disney Princess-themed cake enamel pin in a surprise design — which is probably for the best, since they're all so cute that I don't know how you'd pick which one to buy.
Get it from Box Lunch for $9.90.
16. A cute lil' stacked jewelry organizer you can fan out on your dresser to survey your bauble collection and pick the perfect studs for your OOTD, then fold back up compactly so there's plenty of room left on your vanity for you to do your makeup.
17. An easy and breezy pocketed polka dot maxi dress that's a ~spot-on~ choice for anyone who values comfort and style equally.
Reviewers say it runs a bit large!
Promising review: "Love the dress. Fits well. Loose but I like it like that. Nice fabric. Flowy and soft. It's an easy-breezy dress for spring and summer. Straps are adjustable. Doesn't drag the ground, but it is long. Pockets are nice touch." —Pamela Justice
Get it from Amazon for $19.69+ (available in women's sizes 4–22 and in 27 prints).
18. An Instaworthy wavy-shaped mirror to make your vanity look like that of your favorite influencer. And here you thought looking at your glorious reflection couldn't get any better.
Promising review: "So so cute! LOVE!!! It arrived safely in one piece without breaking or cracks, took seconds to put together, and isn’t wobbly at all. Would recommend!" —Aubree Sklar
Get it from Amazon for $11.59.
19. A Million Llamas coloring book full of ridiculously cute, not-too-simple-but-also-not-too-intricate illustrations of everyone's favorite hump-free member of the camel family. I see some llamazing artistry in your future.
20. A minimal-chic sticker paying homage to the nine masterpieces of great 21st-century author T.A. Swift. Here's hoping for a book tour (and a 10th installment) very soon.
This Canadian small biz specializes in precious pop culture stickers!
Promising review: "I cannot express enough how much I adore this sticker! It combines two of my favorite things — Taylor Swift and books — so how could I not love it? Thank you HoldenHomeGoods! I've sent lots of my Swift-loving friends to your page!" —Kristen
Get it from HoldenHomeGoods on Etsy for $4.18.
21. A ridiculously cute waffle bath bomb that looks good enough to eat (but like, def don't). For anyone who has ever eaten a perfectly crispy-yet-fluffy waffle and thought, I would like to dive inside of this, this may be the closest you'll come.
Made with epsom salts and a coconut oil-infused soap "topping," this large bb is about 8 ounces, so you could totally break off just a piece to divvy up the goodness to multiple baths.
Promising review: "Highly recommend. Smells delightful and made my skin soft. Did make me slightly sparkly from the glitter but not overboard." —Mrs.S124
Get it from Amazon for $10 (available in six scents).
22. A five-pack of Monkey Noodles, aka the perfect fidget toy that you can knot, squish, twist, and stretch to your anxious heart's content during stressful Zoom meetings, phone calls, or TV episodes.
23. A crop top you can twist and knot in all sorts of wonderful ways, so it's like 10 trendy pieces for the (very low) price of one.
Promising review: "Baddie on a budget. I wore this shirt during the day with a tie knot at the chest and then for dinner made it into a wrap shirt and tied it at the back. Super versatile." —Lilybeth Murcia
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–4XL and 45 colors and prints).
24. A colorful enamel pin that captures your very essence. Here's one thing you don't need to overthink — adding this to your cart.
This London-based shop is full of cheeky gifts.
Promising review: "Absolutely love it! The size is perfect! It’s solid and durable." —Holly Peck
Get it from BettieConfetti on Etsy for $10.23.
25. Orly's Plastic Jungle, aka a rich green nail lacquer that'll stand out in a sea of neutral manis and might just be the best, most wonderfully pigmented polish you've ever tried.
There is far, far too much to love about Orly, aka the nail holy grail. World, you can keep your OPI, Essie, Sally Hansen, and Olive & June — yes, I said it. Orly has somehow managed to create the vegan, cruelty-free, affordable nail polishes I have always dreamt of, that have made me excited about regularly doing my nails at home. First of all, their bottles are perfectly designed — not only are they aesthetically pleasing, but the handles have a perfect rubberized grip that makes painting easy. The rubber top also means that I have never — not ONCE — had an issue with an open bottle crusting shut and getting hopelessly stuck like I have with so many other polish brands. The colors are oh-so-richly pigmented, and actually live up to the shade represented by the bottle with two coats, instead of being kind of dull and underwhelming once applied (again, I'm looking at you, other nail brands). This gorgeous green is one of my absolute fave colors. It's a kelly green shade; a bit brighter than a classic emerald, but still looks so luxe — and, unlike so many green shades, it doesn't make you look like you have a nail fungus, even on your toes. For mani that reliably stays looking great for almost a week, start with the brand's Bonder base coat and finish with the Polishield top coat. And thank me later!
Get it from Ulta for $9.50 (available in 20 colors).
26. An Elle Woods Funko Pop! figure (holding Bruiser, obvs) that's been missing from your life since that fateful day in the early aughts when you first heard the line "What, like it's hard?"
Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (ships 7/9/22). You can also get Elle in her iconic bunny outfit or sunbathing look.
27. Colorful and whimsical metal ladybugs reviewers have used to personalize flower beds, trees, shed walls, and fences. All your yard's admirers will be ~bugging~ you to ask where you got 'em.
Promising review: "Really happy with these little cuties, which arrived well packed in a box. They appear to be well-made, quite light, with a lovely glossy finish. There is also a hook on the base for easy hanging. As they are quite hard to measure, I traced one and came up with a little over 3 inches for the head and body and about 3.75 inches for the legs. I'm really glad I bought them." —Debbie from NZ
Get a set of four from Amazon for $15.98 (also available in a butterfly design).
28. A clear acrylic jigsaw puzzle for anyone who loves puzzles but no longer feels challenged by their collection of traditional ones. As an added bonus, this one will look oh-so-cool on your coffee table once completed.
It's from a small biz based in Santa Ana, California.
Promising review: "Loved this. I never redo a puzzle once it's finished, but I think I've done this three times now already. My daughter is fascinated with it as well. Thank you!!!!" —rose C-S
Get it from AdeptusDesigns on Etsy for $12.99+ (available in 9-, 49-, 100-, and 144-piece options).
