A bright-colored Rifle Paper Co. trinket tray to catch your jewelry while you wash your hands, your lip balm when you're not using it, or basically anything small that you *don't* want to end up on the floor.
Promising review: "Perfect small tray that looks pretty anywhere. Sturdy plastic with bright colors in the Rifle Paper print. I have one on my desk to hold my colored pens/markers.

A little leafy artificial plant for putting a little more greenery in your life *without* adding another plant to your intense watering schedule.

Or a gold bowl of faux moss if you're going for more of the enchanted forest vibe but still need to incorporate some green into your space.

A stainless-steel teapot if you are *so psyched* that Tales of the Shire is finally out and you want to up the Hobbit levels in your home by having a kettle at the ready. Pair it with a Celestial Seasonings fruit tea sampler, and you've got yourself the fanciest of summer pastimes (and a great beverage to sip while you're running around Bywater).
Promising review: "Adorable tea kettle! We use this for hot chocolate all of the time. The stoneware on the bottom is nice, too. It looks great out on the stove all of the time." —MomofmanyPrice: $32.99

A bamboo drying rack that will declutter your counter and feel right at home in your kitchen, whether you're going for cottagecore, light academia, or plant parent vibes. (And it's a WORKHORSE that will hold all the mugs of tea and girl dinner dishes you've consumed lately.)
It's me again: Your friendly neighborhood organizing expert. I used to have a flat plastic dish drying rack that did the trick, but I found myself constantly needing to clean it because of standing water and dust. This one is perfection with the bamboo and two tiers, and while lots of people use it freestyle, I highly recommend a drying mat to go under it.Promising review: "We've been using this daily for almost a year and it hasn't shown a single bit of wear! I was worried it would start getting grimy with all of the water. A stylish must-buy!" —ObvibasicPrice: $22

A brass-handled wooden tray so you're ready to serve yourself (or a beloved human) breakfast in bed or a perfectly plated afternoon snack at a moment's notice. And when not in use, it will be perfect for corralling a coffee or tea station on your counter. Fancy-schmancy and versatile? Give me two.
Promising review: "This is the best serving tray. I am using it as a coffee station. It fits my Keurig perfectly along with coffee pods and sugar dish. The quality is great, the color is beautiful, and I couldn't be happier with this purchase. The brass handles only add to its functionality and looks. 10/10" —meganmvcPrice: $39.99
A set of two wooden lattice wall panels to cover up some big hunks of wall space in the most aesthetically pleasing way possible. (It's giving Secret Garden.)

A gold-colored sizeable nonstick cookie sheet that's going to hold all your Instagram-worthy recipes and look cute while doin' it. (That gold color, though.)

Promising review: "Super cute picture. Picture and frame are well made. Overall the quality is great and the price is reasonable." —MegPrice: $32
Some solar LED outdoor string lights to bring a touch of whimsy to your outdoor nights. Just look at those little rattan light hats: They practically scream "summer." And if you've been wondering how you're going to enjoy your dark outdoor space after the sun goes down, these will give you just enough light to vibe outside in the fanciest way possible. (Goodbye gross too-bright porch spotlight bulbs.)
Promising review: "Great addition to my balcony seating area. Gives off a nice soft light in the evening. The solar charge does wear off overnight, but recharges daily. I've had these up throughout the spring, summer, and fall with no problems." —Always ShoppingPrice: $20
A tufted shower curtain if your bathroom could use the quickest (and most effective!) of upgrades. I'm going to hold your hand gently when I say this, but if you still have a holiday-themed curtain up in August... it's time for a seasonal change.
Promising reviews: "I love this shower curtain. It's so pretty. Much nicer in person. Brings out my guest bathroom." —F Schultz"This is a beautiful and classic fabric shower curtain. The neutral creamy texture adds character to our guest bathroom. I highly recommend to anyone contemplating whether or not they should purchase." —SaavyOCShopperPrice: $39.99

I have a similar one to this that I bought 2+ years ago and it's still going strong. For $13, especially, it's an absolute win. It also fits the doorway (any standard door) legit perfectly. I'm very pleased. Would definitely recommend." —Lauren Price: $13
And finally, a wood and rattan wall shelf perfect for holding knickknacks, skincare, plants, any anything else you want to display with a touch of that sweet, sweet natural aesthetic.
Promising reviews: "This is super cute and functional! Hanging it in between mirrors on the wall to store skincare." —ly15"So cute for the price. Very easy to put up, and still feels sturdy. I like that it's different from traditional straight shelves or rectangular hangings. It's a little smaller than what I expected, but it still works." —SoCalmillennialPrice: $50

Scandi Bob Haircut Inspo Straight From Copenhagen Fashion Week
As far as 2025 goes, the bobs keep on coming and as a bob-having, trend-watching beauty director, I have so enjoyed watching more people become cut converts and embrace the versatile style. While a choppy bob has snuck back into the trends and the shaggy bob sees more Pinterest saves, for me, a blunt bob is the chicest haircut of them all. I cut a chin-grazing blunt bob back in September 2024 and I've never felt more confident. But as the story goes, my hair grew, and slowly the style morphed into a bit of a sad lob. So, you can only imagine how quickly I messaged my hairdresser for a brutal cut when I saw the bobs bobbin' up at Copenhagen Fashion Week. As I skimmed through the images, I noticed they all had the same thing in common: all the bobs spotted outside shows were blunt and mostly chin-grazing. While Scandi blonde highlights have been a key beauty trend that peaks every summer, the Scandi bob is a contender to stick around and transcend seasons. The key to the style is that it's cut blunt, but then styled into a natural texture, and never over-manipulated. It's a style that leans into the Scandinavian style and vibe; it's functional, laid-back, yet still incredibly cool and fashion-forward. The best part is that it makes your hair look voluminous by keeping it all one length. If you have thick hair or fine hair but lots of it (raises hand), it emphasises how full your hair is – so in my books it really does suit everybody. And pairing it with bangs? Yes please. Styling-wise, keep products pared all the way back. To enhance texture on fine hair, scrunch in a little bit of texture or salt spray (we love Oribe's iconic Texture Spray) while your hair is damp and either let it air dry or lightly diffuse. If you have thicker hair, a cream like the JVN Air Dry Cream will do the trick. Poker straight hair? Just a bit of light finishing oil will give hair a glossy shine.

It's never too early to prepare for Halloween – at least not at Target. The retailer officially listed more than 1,500 spooky, seasonal finds online, and prices start at $1, the company announced Aug 11. Among this year's items are snacks; Victorian-inspired pieces and Lewis, the $180 8-foot-tall pumpkin ghoul that was first sold in October 2023 and sold out during its first week. Lewis boasts multiple phrases, including a saying to correct those who fail to address the Pumpkin King properly: "I am not a jack-o-lantern," Lewis says. "My name is Lewis." Many of the items are part of Target's Hyde & EEK! Boutique, a Halloween-owned brand. Those decorations include the Featherly Friends werewolf, cat and vampire-inspired bird figurines.

Here's a look at Target's Halloween 2025 drop. What's new this year? Lewis is back with friends. According to Target, the company has brought back Lewis the pumpkin ghoul with some additions: a werewolf, a vampire and a witch.
