Sorry Taylor, no champagne problems here, only champagne solutions.
1. An Able basketweave backpack I ~personally~ can endorse as an A+ bag companion for your champagne era. It's cute, goes with everything, and is so delightfully roomy without being bulky. I can fit my iPad, a couple of books, my paper planner, and snacks for me and my preschooler with room to spare!
Nordstrom
Price: $278
2. A copper and gold winged corkscrew so you can open your bottles with the utmost style and the utmost ease.
3. A Blundstone Chelsea boot if you want a stylish shoe that's also a workhorse. Blundstones are from the great Down Under, so know they're designed to last many champagne eras.
Nordstrom
I just got my first pair of these after *much* research on a boot that was going to hold up over several seasons. A handy sizing tip from the Blundstone community: half sizes for this brand are more an indication of width. So, if you are a size 9 but want a wider fit, go with a 9.5. It'll give you a little more wiggle room without lengthening the shoe itself!
So far, I LOVE these. They're easy to break in, and they look great with jeans, long winter dresses, and my fave overalls.
4. A Béis carry-on roller bag perfect for all those vision board vacations on the horizon. This one includes a TSA-approved lock, 360 swivel wheels, and built-in compression straps to help you pack as much as possible into your new overhead-bin-friendly travel pal.
Nordstrom
Promising review:"This bag is GOATed. I recently used this for a two-week trip to Europe — three cities in two weeks. (I should note I packed my toiletries in my personal item.) I wanted to pack exclusively carry-on as I would be using different modes of transportation through the EU. Using packing cubes, I was able to bring plenty of clothes and two pairs of shoes. The padded handle is such a great, thoughtful touch. Especially navigating the ancient, cobblestoned streets of Europe. If you're on the fence about purchasing this functional and sleek bag, hopefully this review convinced you. Based on how much I love this suitcase. I recently purchased the large check-in for my domestic trips. And bought this one as a gift. 10/10 recommend!" — spro927
5. And a charming Maison de Sabré leather AirTag charm to go with it! This transforms your bulky tracker into a drool-worthy accessory that will have you wondering what else you need to keep track of with AirTags in your life.
Nordstrom
6. A famous Dyson Airwrap multi-styling tool for trying all those hairstyles you've seen around TikTok. If you're in your luxe era and want to take your hair game to the next level, this is a very good place to start.
Nordstrom
Here's a quick TikTok tutorial if you want to see it in action!
Promising review:"I bought one of these for my salon. After using it there, I loved it so much that I bought another one for my home use. There is a learning curve; give yourself time, and you will love it too. For those who cannot get the curls to stay, use a styling product with curl memory, take smaller sections, use the cool shot, and don't run hands through your hair until it is ice cold." — HairStyler
7. A pair of Madewell ballet flats so you can get on the coquette-style train with many color options that will elevate just about any outfit in your closet.
Nordstrom
Promising review:"This review is for the color Vintage Ink in suede. These sold out twice on Madewell last year and I wasn't able to get them. I haven't been able to get them out of my mind since. I just happened to look at the Greta's on a whim here at Nordstrom, and they had them! The color is just as beautiful as I imagined them to be. I have several pairs of these in different colors, and I don't know why people say they run big. I am a solid 6 in most shoes, and they fit perfectly. I've not had any quality issues with any of them so far. If you are lucky enough to score this color in your size, you won't regret it." — Lynne66
8. A pair of Waterford crystal champagne flutes because what even is your champagne era if you don't have the cutest, sparkliest champagne glasses with which to toast your upgrade efforts?
Nordstrom
Promising review:"These flutes are incredibly beautiful and fragile. I purchased these for my granddaughter's wedding. They are so elegant I have decided to buy her a full set plus cocktail glasses. If you love Waterford, you will love these flutes. Would highly recommend." — gemlady
9. An Aura digital photo frame if you're like me and take tons of pictures but forget to, you know, look at them. This frame makes it absurdly easy to display your faves in your home without having to scroll endlessly through your phone. Plus, you can invite collaborators, so family and friends can add *their* favorites to the lineup, too!
Nordstrom
Like the review mentions below, this would also make a great gift if you're trying to help the people in your life usher in their champagne eras, too!
Promising review:"This was a wonderful Mother's Day gift! It was easy to set up and easy to add photographs. I love that other family members can also add their pictures. We all live in different parts of the country, and I feel connected through the photo slide show. Also, a nice way to keep all of those pictures taken on our phones!" — Denise Clack
10. A Jo Malone London wood sage and sea salt cologne I was influenced to buy (you guessed it) on TikTok. The smell is fresh without being too sweet, and the base scent of sage makes it warm and cozy with a touch of ruggedness, so you can stand out in any perfume-loving crowd!
Nordstrom
ALSO, you can get this scent in a candle??? I did *not* know this was possible, but I'm putting it in my cart posthaste. POSTHASTE, I SAY. There is also a sample set if you want to try a few of Jo Malone's offerings first!
Promising reviews:"I just love this scent… I wear it every day!" — LEMSki
"Jo Malone makes beautiful, clean, non-chemically smelling scents. I introduced my daughter to this scent, and it's become her 'signature' scent. This classic will take her through her entire life. Trends come and go, but Jo Malone will be beautiful always." — crcham
11. An Anastasia Beverly Hills brow definer that'll make it look like you just visited the salon but without the price tag. (Who doesn't want a mini brow salon in their handbag???)
Nordstrom
Promising review:"I've been using the Anastasia Soft Brown Eyebrow Pencil for over five years, and I absolutely love it! The larger size is a game changer for me — it's so much easier to use compared to the smaller versions. The formula is smooth, and the color is perfect for achieving that natural look. Highly recommend this product for anyone looking to enhance their eyebrows with ease!" — Tombonz
12. A guiding star signet ring made of 18-karat gold plated on sterling silver to help you keep your goals at the front of your mind and the tips of your fingers. (Well, the knuckles of your fingers, anyway, but that doesn't quite roll off the tongue.)
Nordstrom
13. A Topshop cable-knit cardigan because if 2025 is the year of the fisherman aesthetic, you can get ahead of the trend now in the coziest way possible by throwing this in your cart.
Nordstrom
14. A luxe ponytail cuff holder if you're like me and wish you could make your go-to pony look a little more put together without any extra effort.
Nordstrom
15. A tiger graphic tee to give your closet a quintessential touchstone (who doesn't need a fave go-to tee?) you'll miss every time it's in the wash.
16. A deco-style crystal hinge bracelet with a serpentine aesthetic that will inspire you to seize the day during this champagne era (and every era thereafter) whenever you wear it.
Nordstrom
Speaking of eras, this will be perfectly decadent and subtle to celebrate Reputation TV when our girl Swift finally releases it!
17. A soft Zella tank top you can layer or wear all on its own to your fave workout class or to look fab while running errands.
Nordstrom
Promising review:"This is my all-time favorite workout tank. It is so soft, and provides a bit more coverage/length than the Lululemon Love tank. I own several. It washes beautifully. Thank you for bringing it back!" — Akimoto
18. A soft and slouchy tote bag too perfect to ever go out of style, so you know your cost-per-wear on this is going to be out of this world and in your budget.
19. A pair of Dearfoams cable-knit chenille slippers with a faux fur cuff and fleece footbed, because if a champagne era doesn't include being as cozy as possible, I don't want it.
20. A luxurious santal and vetiver body wash reviewers call "heaven in a bottle" because of the scent and texture. I, for one, would like my shower to feel more spa-like, no matter my era!
Nordstrom
Promising reviews:"The most luxurious body wash, the most wonderful scent. It feels like a luxury spa! Won't use anything else." — KLBKLB
"It's heaven in a bottle. Love the fragrance of the body wash. Spa-like feel." — Skybarbie5
Price: $36
21. A crochet wool hat that's giving main character energy in the best way. The colors, vintage '70s vibe, and handcrafted construction ensure this pom-pom beanie will never go out of style, so why not snag both colorways while you're champagne-ing?
Nordstrom
Promising review:"I was a little skeptical at first, thinking this hat would not meet my expectations. Much to my surprise, it not only met but exceeded my expectations. Absolutely LOVE it. I have received many compliments. Fits perfectly and is fully lined." — Hippie Soul
22. A water-resistant anorak with a hood and huge front-zip pocket so you and your cute outfit can stay dry (and cute) no matter how aggressive the deluge is.
Nordstrom
Price: $115 (available in sizes XS–XL and in two styles)
23. A Lancôme powder blush if you want to reapply your blush throughout the day but don't want to haul around a full-sized brush in your bag. How cute is this little compact? It is the height of sophistication to take this cutie out of your bag and get those cheeks back to rosy in no time!
Nordstrom
Promising reviews:"No one is talking about these blushes, but they are WOW. Such an airbrushed quality to them and what a beautiful shade." — thecandyqueen
"I love the Rose Romantique and the Cosmopolitan Pink. Both are great for my skin tone. The Rose Romantique is subtle, and the Cosmo Pink is a great pop of color. I apply lightly to the apple of my cheeks. It lasts and is not drying. The compact lasts a long time and is worth the investment. Sheer and natural-looking, my favorite blush." — whocareswhoiam
Price: $34 (available in three shades)
24. A Tweezerman tweezer set with a cute lil' carrying case so you never have to worry about a stray hair ruining your look while you're on the go again.
Nordstrom
Tweezerman also has a manicure set if you're looking to up your self-care game further!
Promising review:"I saw the Tweezerman set and thought, 'What a great stocking stuffer gift for my two daughters and daughter-in-law.' I liked that there was a case for the tweezers. I have my tweezerman tweezers in my makeup kit, and I am always searching for them. The girls loved them and remarked how it was a gift that they wouldn't buy for themselves. I have used Tweezerman tweezers for years, and they are of very good quality." — UniqueGiftsMom
Price: $28
25. A cozy pair of crew socks giving major après-ski vibes to keep your toesies warm and fashionable while lounging at home or popping out of your new boots.
Nordstrom
Promising review:"Exactly what I was looking for. Soft comfortable socks that I can lounge in." — MotherJoy
Price: $12 (available in two styles)
26. A Zwilling sous vide stick that can attach to your own pot and cook your meat perfectly without touching your stove. It's practically a magic cooking wand, which I'm pretty sure qualifies as the ultimate champagne-era kitchen tool.
Nordstrom
Price: $169.99 (available in two colors)
27. A Free People packable puffer jacket that's perfectly on trend and foldable so that you can take it wherever the wind blows you. (But without actually feeling the cold wind blow, you know?)
Nordstrom
Promising review:"This jacket is pricey, but it is my favorite jacket of jackets! SO warm, lightweight, and it can fold into an inside pocket (12" by 14") if you want to pack it for travel. I love this jacket for its warmth, fit, and smart style. I ordered large because I usually layer. Some might think it is too oversized, but it has definite style!" — Yam4002
Price: $198 (available in sizes S–XL and in six colors)
28. A Nodpod weighted sleep mask if you love weighted blankets but wish you could have the same feeling on your eyes while you sleep. Wish no more! The Nodpod is one of those "How did I live without this?" products you'll be so happy you welcomed into your champagne-era sleeping situation.
Nordstrom
Promising reviews:"I didn't know how much I needed this. The weight is soothing, and the design is awesome. I can use it sleeping on my back and also as a side sleeper. One side is velvety, and one is like a jersey. I sleep more deeply and fall asleep faster." — ClassicFunMomIL
"I work night shifts in the hospital. I used to sleep in a…closet. I've tried everything, and FINALLY, I can sleep in bed during the day. It's the weight and the light-blocking together that make it just right for me. Five stars all the way!" — sleepydoctor
Price: $34 (available in five colors)
29. A smart Pura car scent diffuser that'll make you forget your car ever smelled like fast food or wet dog. With an app that lets you control the strength of your scent and reminds you when it's time to change the wow-we're-in-the-future scent disks, this thing is a dream for anyone who has ever wanted their car to smell a little more like a home away from home.
Ashley Schumacher/BuzzFeed
Pura has SO many great scent options, including the cult-fave Capri Blue Volcano, which is the first one I grabbed when I bought this! Oh, and did I mention the diffuser knows when your car is moving and will automatically shut off when it's not in motion to save battery life and scent disks? TRULY a magical addition to my fam's car.
According to Johns Hopkins, you may want to avoid diffusing oils around larger groups and young children because of the side effects of different oils. You may also want to avoid using an oil diffuser around pets with breathing problems, according to the ASPCA.
Price: $64.99
30. A cotton twill pajama set with an actual champagne print option so you can really commit to being comfy while also staying on theme.
Nordstrom
Promising review:"I got these PJs for my granddaughter, and she loves them! They are a very nice, flannel-feeling material and have pockets in the pants. For the price point, they seriously can't be beat! I would highly recommend!" — Lorrux
Price: $44.20+ (originally $68, available in sizes XS–XL and in six styles)
31. An Original Makeup Eraser headband and wristband set because hair getting stuck in your skincare and water dripping down your arms while you wash your face are not invited to your glow-up era party.
Nordstrom
Promising reviews:"I love the quality of these and I'm happy that I purchased them. It makes doing my skincare routine much better. Very reasonably priced as well." — salequeen
"Love this!! No more drips down my arms when I wash my face." — Lori
Price: $15 (available in two colors)
32. A two-pack of the famous Nordstrom decaf whole bean coffee in their signature espresso blend so your mornings can all smell like the Nordstrom cafe.
Nordstrom
Promising review:"This is outstanding espresso. It is full-bodied without being the least bit acidic or bitter-tasting. It actually does have a subtle chocolatey flavor to it, as advertised. I do wish there was an option to purchase a single bag at a time for freshness; that would be my only complaint. That said, these bags are well sealed, and as they are only 12 ounces each, I go through them pretty quickly anyway." — Tmcl
Price: $29 for a two-pack (also available in caffeinated)
33. And finally, a clip-on LED makeup mirror to ensure you look optimal in all of those selfies you'll be taking as you show off your best era yet!
Nordstrom
Price: $50

Plane Passenger on Night Flight Plays Videos Out Loud—Neighbor Handles It

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. When Steven Jones, a Seattle-based comedy and fashion influencer, boarded a flight from LAX to Seattle, he had already had a long and exhausting day. But, as he boarded the flight, a fellow passenger was watching videos on his phone without headphones. Jones shared the moment he confronted the man, saying: "I've been at the airport for seven hours today. I just want to get home and I don't want to be dealing with this." "This is ridiculous," he added, talking to the passenger. "This is a flight." Jones told Newsweek that the conflict began even before boarding. He noticed the man playing YouTube videos out loud in the terminal, ignoring repeated requests from nearby travelers to turn the sound down. "To my surprise, he ended up seated right next to me on the plane. He immediately started playing his YouTube news video," Jones said. The moment the influencer confronted the fellow passenger. The moment the influencer confronted the fellow passenger. @iamkingonlii/TikTok 'We All Just Wanted Him To Be Courteous' Other passengers were quick to show their frustration. The woman sitting on Jones's other side asked the man to put on headphones, only for him to respond: "I don't have any headphones; I've already turned the volume down." Despite being offered headphones multiple times, the man refused. "He wouldn't even touch them. He said that we needed to 'respect him' and that we were 'being sensitive,'" Jones added. The situation didn't stop at loud videos. During the flight, Jones said the same passenger attempted to sit in business class, assuming an empty seat was free. He was escorted back. Later, the man physically leaned against Jones in the middle seat, forcing the influencer to push him back into his own space. "I had no intention of arguing or trying to be rude to the passenger," Jones said. "We all just wanted him to be courteous and use basic flight etiquette. A lot of it is just common sense and decency." Jones's calm handling of the situation struck a chord online, and his TikTok video of the exchange has been viewed more than 5.2 million times, with an additional 1 million views on Instagram. In the comments on TikTok, people praised Jones for confronting the passenger. "Your patience is amazing sir!" said one. Another wrote: "Not wearing headphones is my BIGGEST pet peeve. Like WHO DOESN'T HAVE HEADPHONES?!" "In this situation, I thought it was best to de-escalate," Jones said, adding that his goal was to highlight the importance of simple etiquette while traveling. Newsweek reached out to the airline via email for comment.

ATP Tour partners with TikTok, but can tennis embrace the irreverence that the platform loves?
ATP Tour partners with TikTok, but can tennis embrace the irreverence that the platform loves?

ATP Tour partners with TikTok, but can tennis embrace the irreverence that the platform loves?

Seven million people have watched 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic dancing to 'Uptown Funk' by Bruno Mars. Almost 11 million have followed rising star Ben Shelton behind the curtain of a commercial shoot. And millions more will watch Carlos Alcaraz doing just about anything — all on their phone screens. Advertisement The stars of men's tennis are already giving their fans windows into their careers on TikTok, and the ATP Tour has now signed a strategic content partnership with the social media giant. Players will receive guidance on how to get maximum engagement, while some will collaborate with established tennis creators on the platform. The tour's own account, which has just under 600,000 followers, will also be bolstered. With just 20 of the ATP top 100 on the platform, the tour intends for more of its players to receive the exposure to casual fans that TikTok can bring. Tennis' most dedicated fans know the intricacies of the sport from top to bottom, but for people who love a Grand Slam but don't know what a 250-level event is, the sport's fragmented media landscape and limited embrace of stepping stones into its lore has acted as a barrier to entry. 'Tennis culture is really having this extended moment,' said Kat Marquez, TikTok's lead, North America sports league partnerships, in a video interview Monday. 'Whether it's the fashion associated with it or some of the food elements there are so many beautiful points that add a unique richness to the sport that I think are uniquely highlighted on TikTok.' Andrew Walker, the ATP's senior vice president of brand and marketing, said in a video interview that 'a lot of research that shows that there's a significant portion of casual tennis fans who we have an opportunity to do a better job of connecting with. 'Many of those tennis fans are in the Gen Z or millennial age brackets. So obviously a platform like TikTok gives us an opportunity,' he said. The partnership follows a similar one with Overtime, the sports media company aimed at Gen Z and Millennial fans. Its interviews have become a fixture on the circuit, asking tennis stars offbeat questions that get them out of their comfort zone. But the question that hangs over this partnership is the same one that looms over tennis' relationship with TikTok — and social media — at large: Can a sport as precious about media rights and highlights as tennis fully embrace the irreverent visual language and spirit of remixing and remaking that makes its output so compelling? Tennis has embraced TikTok as the platform has grown, with a 30 percent increase in the performance of content related to the sport in 2025 so far. The ATP has recently leaned into some of its vernacular, casting Flavio Cobolli, the rising Italian talent, as 'admin' in videos on other platforms. The mythical 'admin' is the person who runs an account, and the videos see Cobolli cajoling his fellow stars into being on camera, or just logging on for duty. Advertisement But tennis still lags behind sports like golf and soccer, with 1.8 million tagged videos compared to 7.1 million and 16.2 million respectively. And even more fundamentally, tennis is yet to fully figure out how to mesh a longform sport, whose momentum and match action cannot be encapsulated by 30 seconds, with the way the platform thrives on user-generated content (UGC) and remixing. The best tennis TikToks, of which the U.S. Open's account is one, make tennis fit the forms of the platform, rather than the other way around. And for now, the biggest TikTok stars in the sport are WTA Tour players — world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka and world No. 3 Coco Gauff. They embrace the platform, posting dances and offbeat monologues to camera and participating in trends. After Sabalenka at first failed to fully credit Gauff for beating her at the French Open in June, they buried the hatchet with a dance at Wimbledon. The ATP started conversations over a formal partnership a few months ago with TikTok executives in Italy — such a hotbed for tennis currently and the host for the ATP Finals in November, the men's tour's flagship event. One of the appeals for tennis and for TikTok is the almost-yearlong, global season, which offers the possibility to construct narratives and storylines — lore — around players and rivalries over an extended period. The Overtime partnership, which has so far seen 60 million views since February, is bringing in audience mostly composed of people under 35. The ATP wants to continue this trend on TikTok, showing off the players' personalities in a bid to drive interest in the tour. At this year's Tour Finals, creators from the eight nations where the Masters 1,000 events (the rung below the Grand Slams and the biggest ATP tournaments) are held will join the players to make videos. Advertisement Both organizations think the partnership will lead to a greater engagement of the casual fan, who might not need to know every result, but is interested in tennis's wider cultural footprint. When the U.S. Open gets under way this week, users will get a combination of official highlights, jokey videos like the Djokovic one, and behind-the-scenes content like Shelton's commercial. The ATP has produced irreverent content before, like the hit video featuring Djokovic, Alcaraz and Andy Murray that portrayed the tennis circuit as a scripted reality show, and Walker is confident that it can do so again. But the sport as a whole, especially when it comes to rights to match footage, is still limited. Tournaments and the tours can post footage and remix it, but some events do not let individual players post footage of their own matches due to media contracts. Another wrinkle is the absence of the WTA Tour. Marquez said that TikTok was and is open to a partnership with the WTA, which did not comment on the possibility. Walker said that discussions remain ongoing over a possible commercial merger between the ATP and WTA Tours, which the WTA confirmed. Ultimately, this partnership is the latest example of tennis attempting to capture a younger audience, as well as fans who might recognize the likes of Djokovic and Alcaraz as general sports or TikTok stars first, and learn about the intricacies of their tennis prowess second. While the long-parroted view that the average tennis viewer is in their 60s has some basis in reality on traditional television, it is also a simplistic view of how and why tennis needs to evolve its viewership. It is not just about age, but about the balance between the level of knowledge of the sport and the ease of beginning to understand it. In a news release to be issued Tuesday, Rollo Goldstaub, TikTok's global head of sports partnerships, said that Alcaraz, Shelton, Djokovic and others are 'connecting with growing fan bases by showing their real personalities in captivating content that has turned the sport into a cultural phenomenon that blends competition with entertainment.' He added that the new partnership 'encourages more players to share their stories, further igniting tennis' cultural movement on TikTok.' Where this leads to will become apparent in the coming years. There is no doubt that TikTok loves tennis, but the sport is still on its way to embracing some of the chaos that makes it such a compelling introduction to a sport more familiar with order.

Taylor Swift's "The Shiny Bug Edition" Easter Egg

How early is too early for Taylor Swift to start dropping Easter eggs? The limit does not exist. Yesterday, a brand new countdown showed up on Tay's website, leading to the reveal of The Life of a Showgirl: The Shiny Bug Edition. The limited run features two new vinyl colors—one in "violet shimmer" marble and one in "wintergreen and onyx" marble. And it looks like Taylor teased them literal years ago in her circa 2022 "The Making of Midnights" TikTok. I mean. HER MIND. Taylor revealed how her Easter eggs work just a few days ago on New Heights, saying "I have parameters. There's dos and donts. I don't do an Easter egg that ties to my personal life. It points to my music…it's something you don't know why I'm saying for a specific reason, but then you'll look back and go 'oh my god.'" She went on to give the example of her NYU honorary doctorate speech, saying "My favorite one of those was when I was giving an honorary doctorate from NYU and I made the commencement speech. And I put so many lyrical easter eggs in that speech that when the Midnights album came out after that, the fans were like 'The whole speech was an easter egg.' And that for me is really fun because they find it fun. I love numerology, I love math stuff, I love dates, that stuff I find really fun."
