July 6, 2023 — The Mochi grinder from Sackville and Sundae School is at the top of our wishlisted items that came out in July. Designed to emulate Sundae School’s signature five-petal-flower mochi gummies, the pendant can double as a multipurpose keychain or stylish necklace—call it high fashion.

July 6, 2023 — Dossier’s newest fragrance line smells just like your fave cocktails. Famous for their designer recreations (like the TikTok viral Woody Sandalwood), the brand’s latest additions to their original scents collection—including bottles called Bubbly Spritz & Bitters, Fresh Margarita & Lime, and Smoky Mezcal & Cucumber—will bring the bar to you.

July 6, 2023 — This handsome travel bag from Victorinox is durable and understatedly stylish. It’s got an antimicrobial lining, straps that’ll easily attach to your rolling luggage, and lots of pockets to keep your travel documents or toiletries safely tucked away.

It’s also equipped with eight different types of white noise, black-out mode, and you have the option to implement customized sounds.

July 10, 2023 — New washable wool rugs dropped at Revival last month and they’re just the thing to tie your space together. We especially like the Eveline, which comes in an autumnal burnt sienna and is available in sizes from 3' x 5' to 10' x 14'.

July 11, 2023 — If you’re looking to bring your luxurious hotel stay home with you, Snif’s recent collab with The Standard, High Line, should do the trick. Private Hours diffuses a rich blend of spiced rum, leather, and amber that you don’t have to check in to a hotel to enjoy.

July 12, 2023 — This floral rolling tray from Jake Clark and Edie Parker put a smile on our faces last month (and we think you can appreciate it even if you’re not a smoker). Inspired by David Hockney’s pool paintings, the handmade tray would be the perfect complement to one of the brand’s dreamy table lighters or kitschy-cool ashtrays.

July 12, 2023 — We love the latest collab from Coach and Observed By Us, a project by Kirsten Dunst and designer Jessica Herschko. The capsule includes clothing, footwear, accessories, and bags—like this perfect dinner party mini purse—embellished with Jessica’s quirky hand-drawn illustrations

July 12, 2023 — Narra is a new beverage line that takes inspiration from beloved Asian flavor profiles. The dairy-free, naturally caffeinated canned drinks supply a quick and convenient energy boost in the form of delicious flavors like roasted Oolong milk tea, black milk tea, and strawberry matcha lattes.

July 12, 2023 — Oribe’s newest scent offering is designed to transform the energy in your space through a fragrant blend of wood and citrus. Like a European getaway in fragrance form, the incense sticks diffuse Calabrian bergamot, Sicilian orange, white butterfly jasmine, and sandalwood to liven up the mood.

July 13, 2023 — This very sumptuous-looking checkered robe from Baina’s latest collection (a fave of Ashley Tisdale) is the only house attire we want to wear for the foreseeable future. Designed to bring a touch of style to your washroom routine, we have a hard time imagining a better treat than cozying up in one of these luxuriously absorbent covers post-bath or shower.

July 13, 2023 — Setting the right vibe for the rest of summer is a cinch with this fixture from Craighill and Gantri. The Flux Table Light came to fruition while Hunter Craighill was flipping through a book of classical Greek architecture by candlelight. Struck by the flickering flame, melting candle wax, and ancient structures, the lamp’s eye-catching form is designed to bring an element of peaceful elegance to your tabletops.

Fusing Sunchasers’s signature unisex tie-dye silhouettes with custom patterns and colors inspired by Ibiza and Miami Beach (where two of W Hotels’ coastal properties are located), this exclusive collab will brighten up your loungewear game in a very luxurious way.

July 18, 2023 — One of our favorite furniture brands, Sabai, celebrated their rebrand last month with new lines of furniture pieces and decor accessories. While the seating options are vegan, eco-conscious, and made in the US using sustainable materials, this renewable and responsibly sourced flatweave Field Rug also caught our eye.

July 19, 2023 — Just in time for your next soiree, Australian homewares and lifestyle brand Fazeek made its first foray into ceramics and cutlery in July. We’re especially enamored with the wavy cutlery design, made from sleek stainless steel that’s more durable and resistant to corrosion.

July 19, 2023 — Spice things up at the summer function or dinner party by gifting your host the latest from Ghia. A few weeks ago, the brand added a new elixir to their refreshing lineup: sumac & chili. Concocted to taste “sharp and fiery,” the deliciously tangy aperitif is spritzed with chili pepper extract and sumac berry for a surprisingly zesty summer sip.

July 25, 2023 — The Citizenry, who makes some of our favorite cooling linen sheets, just launched its latest collection, a celebration of Mexico’s colorful and diverse craft culture. The collection consists of hand-cast ceramics, recycled glass accents, and handwoven rugs—like the abstract Mesa design featured here.

July 26, 2023 — Next on our new products list, Supergoop!’s take on pickleball was another collab that caught our eye (BTW, it’s not just you—seemingly everyone’s getting into the court sport lately). Adorned with the suncare brand’s signature blue and yellow, these easy-to-grip Recess paddles and lovely mesh tote will make sure you’ve got great form and great style.

July 27, 2023 — From Courteney Cox, replace your drab kitchen cleaners and soaps with these elevated scents that fuse sparkling mandarin, spiced ginger, fresh green basil, and ripe fig.

July 28, 2023 — An ode to Laguna Beach, the new eau de toilette from Stüssy and CDG will add some West Coast vibes to your scent rotation. Think a unique blend of moss, atlas cedar, and white solar flowers for the ultimate naturally fresh musk.
