It's intoxicating.
1. A versatile chop, slice, and dice unit so you can drastically *cut* down on food prep and cleanup time with interchangeable blades that can each be popped into the dishwasher. You've been around long enough to know you never want to chop an onion by hand again.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food, and it has a generous container." — Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in five colors and four other styles).
2. A durable honeycomb drawer for eliminating the time-consuming drawer excavation you perform every time you're looking for a specific scarf, tie, or pair of underwear before it's time to head out the door.
www.amazon.com
Thanks to its super simple design, the organizer can be assembled simply by snapping the pieces together. Plus, they can expand to fit the size of your drawers.
Promising review:"I am a man of many socks, and these helped organize them much better than what I was doing. It's easy to do by color and style." — Think Blue
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
3. A budget-friendly SkinSmart facial cleanser spray that reviewers compare to the pricier Tower 28 SOS Spray for its ability to target redness and bacteria without drying out your skin. It's suitable for all skin types and is ideal for busy bodies who still want to take good care of their skin. Just spray and go — no scrubbing needed!
See it in action on TikTok.
Promising review:"I rarely write reviews, but I am already in love with whatever sorcery is in this bottle! This was a TikTok-influenced buy, so I was skeptical. When I got the product, I was having a horrible breakout with a HUGE irritated pimple in the crevice of my nose, and after two days of using it before and after work, it's gone! It immediately helped the redness and irritation as well, and I'm blown away! After less than a week, my breakout has almost cleared up completely." — Catherine bunch
Get it from Amazon for $17.46.
4. A set of reusable Wad-Free tools you might recognize from Shark Tank if you're tired of laundry day getting derailed by tangled bedsheets. These help maintain a balanced washer drum, reduce dry times, and prevent wet clothes from getting trapped in the sheets.
Amazon
Wad-Free is a small biz that was launched during the pandemic by Cyndi Bray, who had a wadding problem and no available solutions. So they did what anyone would do (JK) — learned CAD (computer-aided design) and invented a genius solution!
Promising review:"Wow!!! You wonder if things like this really work and, well, I can absolutely confirm it does! First, I was impressed that the package came with two of the devices because I was only expecting one. So there was one for the fitted sheet and the flat sheet. Finally, I tried it out, and my sheets not only did NOT wad up, but they came out of the dryer feeling fresher, more dry, and unwrinkled! I will be buying a set of these for each of my immediate family members and close friends! What a great gift!!!" — katy
Get a pair from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in a four-pack).
5. A nonaerosol dry shampoo powder packed in a travel-friendly compact to prolong wash day and revive greasy locks so you can basically roll right out of bed and into the office and STILL have coworkers complimenting your fabulous hair.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I am so glad I gave this product a try, as it works amazingly well on my fine, oily hair. I have used just about every dry shampoo product on the market, and this is by far the best one yet. My hair looks beautiful, and I can now go nearly a week without washing (while still having absolutely gorgeous hair)! I used to have to wash my hair every other day when I was using my former favorite dry shampoo (and it made my scalp itch on day two). This product is definitely worth a try, and it may soon be your favorite!" — Melanie Havert
Get it from Amazon for $18 (available in six colors).
6. A bleach-free Wet & Forget shower cleaner for not only cleaning but preventing soap scum buildup with minimal effort. Once a week, simply give your shower a spray, let it sit overnight, rinse, and — BOOM — you're done and didn't even break a sweat.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I have been having shower draining issues, so there was a buildup of soap scum in my shower. I have a very weak stomach, and cleaning the shower makes me physically ill. I have tried several products that have claimed to be no scrub/wipe but this has been the only one that has worked. I sprayed it after my shower and left it to sit until the next night. Found that A LOT of the grime had disappeared. Now, was it perfect? No. But I think with consistent use, it will get there. Highly recommend this product." — KZ
Get it from Amazon for $20.98+ (available in two sizes and two scents).
7. A Dawn Powerwash spray bundle that eliminates the time-consuming dish pre-soak so you can clear out your sink sooner. Just spray, wait a few minutes while it works it's magic, and wipe the stains away.
This bundle includes one spray bottle and three refills. It also works great for any other greasy messes you have around the house!
Promising review: 'The first place I tried this was in my air fryer basket. It gets caked with the grease that comes from the food. The dishwasher doesn't get it clean. I sprayed this on it, and within a few minutes, the soap started turning a brownish color. I sprayed a little more and let it sit for an hour. All of the grease came off with a rinse!! Bonus use: I just used it to get resin off of my and my daughter's hands!! How did I ever live without this??" — A D
Get it from Amazon for $18.22.
8. Or a pack of carborundum sponges if your normie sponge is failing to clear away the burnt-on bits your pans like to hold onto.
Promising review: "Nice and thin. You'll find so many more uses for these around the house than just getting stuff off the underside of cookware! I had hard, scaly water deposits on the glass surrounding our powder room faucet (one of those fancy, highfalutin, modern-looking things). I've tried everything for 4 years to get this stuff off. One day, I thought, 'Maybe I'll try my sponges.' Took it all off super easily!!!! The faucet looks like new. My only rec is to spot-test your item first before using it because it will scratch certain surfaces if you scrub too aggressively (for example, it gets the burned-on, weird stuff off of the bottom of my fave Our Place pan, but I rubbed too hard in one spot and it took the color right off lol)." — Hoarder
Get an eight-pack from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two sponge thicknesses).
9. A Shark Tank -approved Souper Cubes freezer tray designed to fit a serving (1 cup) of soup or sauce per cube so you can freeze and then reheat when you need a quick meal instead of defrosting an entire big container.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Souper Cubes is a family-run small business with a passion for better frozen meal prep and food waste reduction! Plus, their products are BPA-free and dishwasher-safe. This tray has fill lines on the side of the compartments for half and full cups.
Promising review:"LOVE LOVE LOVE. My freezer is so much more organized now. Gone are the days of having to defrost an entire bag of chicken broth for one cup for a recipe. I now have perfectly portioned 1/2-cup and 1-cup blocks ready to go. They fit easily in freezer bags, take up less space, and make me incredibly happy. There was a lot of attention to detail put into the design, and I particularly appreciate the wire inside the rim that holds everything steady — no more worrying about spilling all the liquid on the way to the freezer. Just a fantastic product all around. I purchased this and a cheaper version from another manufacturer at the same time but returned the other product. This one is definitely worth the added cost." — Kate
Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (available in four colors and a two-pack).

10. These rust-resistant double-sided shower hooks because changing out your curtain or liner doesn't have to be such a time-consuming ordeal. Plus, they're engineered with tiny roller balls that glide over the rod without the usual tugging and pulling.
Amazon
Promising review:"Wow. Game changer. I have to change my shower curtain liner a lot because of a humid bathroom (yes, even with a fan on 😬). Though there are greater issues in the world, why wouldn't you want to save yourself some time with these hooks! Not having to take the curtain off each time I change the liner has really been more satisfying than I had anticipated. Added bonus are the rings themselves; the balls that were added hug the shower curtain rod so they never pop off. Something I never knew I needed either. Love these!" — Jdbouchart
Get 12 hooks from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in 18 colors).
11. An air-dry leave-in cream so you can get touchable, crunch-free curls and enjoy less frizz without getting the blow-dryer or other heat styling tools involved. It's wash and go, just like you've always dreamed.
www.amazon.com
This cream helps define your natural texture and works best on those with wavy, curly, or coily hair!!
Promising review:"I'm so grateful that I found this product. My hair is wavy and frizzy. Every once in a great while, my waves resemble curls, but the frizz is always there. I've only used this product once so far, and I never want to be without it. I put some on after towel-drying (no brushing) my hair, and my waves actually resembled curls! It wasn't instant, so I was skeptical, but after about 15 minutes, I caught a glimpse of my hair in the mirror, and I was amazed. It looked styled rather than a ratty mess. I slept on it, and it still looked great in the morning!!!" — mich0610
Get it from Amazon for $8.39.
12. A beloved tub of pink cleaning paste for performing small cleaning miracles on virtually any surface in your home without endless scrubbing or constant switching between products. Try it out on those "forever" stains other solutions could never handle, and fly through your cleaning in a fraction of the time.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Found this product on TikTok. I don't think I've ever seen value like I do with this product! Literally, use it on EVERYTHING!! Kids and teens have dirt, grime, and grease on their walls? This will make it look like a new paint job. Baseboards need some love? A pea-sized amount of this makes them look brand new. Need a shoe cleaner? PERFECT for sneakers. I could name a million more uses, but I can ASSURE you this is worth every penny. What's more? You need so LITTLE of this product that it will last a VERY long time. Thank you, TikTok!!!" — Rachel in CLT
Get it from Amazon for $5.29.
13. A genius WD-40 pen that packs all the squeak-quieting, lubricating powers of the tried-and-true formula into a precision-tip pen that's easy to use and even easier to keep on hand for quick fixes, so you don't let that squeaky door live on for far too long.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I love WD-40 products and use them for everything. I spray on shovels to keep dirt or snow from sticking, spray around windows and thresholds to deter bugs, clean Sharpies off wood and walls, and, of course, stop squeaky doors. These small direct-point application pens are great. Keep one in the glove box, my kitchen 'junk' drawer, and the house toolbox." — BBP623
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.99.
14. A silicone-free L'Oréal moisturizing treatment if you want visibly healthier-looking hair FAST — like, eight seconds fast. This rinse-out formula works on any hair texture or length, delivering the proteins and amino acids necessary for a shiny, flippable mane.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
15. A pack of stain-lifting pads to take care of stains like freshly spilled wine or old pet accidents on your carpet without you even having to touch it. Simply lay down the pad, stomp, and let it sit.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"WOW! Honestly, I was a little skeptical of the promise of these pads, but I bought them just to try them out. THEY WORKED AMAZINGLY WELL! Seriously. I have some stains that are 1.5–2 years old. I've tried everything to get them out. I put these pads on the stains (two to cover the spot), let them sit for about an hour, pulled them up, and the stain was gone. I truly couldn't believe it. The pad was yellow. Somehow, the old urine was soaked up into the pad. My carpet looks like new. I couldn't recommend these any higher for what I wanted and what I got. Wish I could give this more than 5 stars." — Matt
Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $27.48.
16. A 40-pound bag of dust-free clumping litter because somehow you feel like all your time is spent hunched over the cat's litter box digging for gold. Make the chore quicker and easier with litter that's low tracking and quickly clumps for easy scooping.
Dr. Elsey's
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Chelsea Stuart has this stuff on auto-ship:
"I live in a third-story apartment in NYC, so I really don't have many options when it comes to cat litter. With Amazon's subscribe and save, though, I can get a 40-pound bag delivered right to my door, so I don't have to carry it back from a store or even up my own stairs! If you live in a multi-cat household, I think it's especially worthwhile because while those little two-pound bags are easy to carry, they go reallyyyy fast. This stuff also clumps up SO well and keeps odor at bay, which is a major blessing."
Promising review: "I can hardly believe how well it does the job. It eliminates odors and absorbs excellently. I will only buy this litter from now on, and my cat 💘s it. P.S.: I've tried at least 10 kinds of cat litter, and they are very costly. This one's price is just right and works in every way I need it to. Thank you!" — Paula Stokes
Get it from Amazon for $20.99.
17. A Shark Tank -approved timed lock box so tempting distractions are LITERALLY inaccessible for a designated amount of time — from 1 minute up to 10 days! Pre-commitment devices like this one are a proven method for combatting decision fatigue and conserving willpower so you can fly through your to-do list and still have time for that oh-so-vital R&R.
www.amazon.com
Kitchen Safe is a small business that previously appeared on Shark Tank pitching their locked timer as an effective way to handle temptations and distractions.
Promising review:"This really helps to end chronic procrastination and avoid temptations. For me, I would always get distracted by my phone, but now I can finally stay on schedule and finish what I need to." — Lorenz
Get it from Amazon for $59+ (available in three sizes and six styles).
18. A detangling kids leave-in conditioner that'll tame frizz, hydrate curls, reduce breakage, and just generally decrease the amount of time spent fussing over your kid's hair — something you'll both be grateful for.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"My daughter's curly hair is usually filled with tangles in the morning because she tosses and turns in her sleep, but this leave-in has been an absolute lifesaver. It is lightweight, adds shine and definition to her ringlets, and best of all, it's much easier to run a brush through her hair in the morning. This spray also has a fruity scent that my little girl loves. I highly recommend it to other moms." — AME
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
19. A patented ChomChom pet hair remover if Fido's shedding is taking over your home and you're sick of lugging out the vacuum every three seconds. This uses bristles, not sticky tape, to catch lint meaning you can clean and reuse it over and over and over again.
Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed
ChomChom Roller is a Massachusetts-based small biz creating an eco-friendly, reusable alternative to sticky lint rollers.
Promising review:" TikTok made me buy this, and it is money well spent!! I'm convinced my beagle sheds a full coat of hair and regrows it daily! I use this on my bed every single day, and it blows my mind how well it works. Before this, I was going through four to five disposable sticky rollers a month and spending three times longer to remove dog hair. I am buying these for everyone in my family as Christmas gifts this year! ❤️" — tiff4short
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in multiple styles).
20. An upholstered armless task chair featuring a wide seat for anyone who simply cannot function without sitting like a pretzel and needs a fidget-friendly setup to help them in that the flow.

21. A gel toilet cleaning stamp to keep your porcelain throne looking and smelling clean between scrub sessions with approximately zero effort. Cleansing gel releases with every flush, leaving behind a fresh scent and preventing stain buildups.
Each stamp lasts for around 12 days!
Promising review:"I love these 'stamps.' They keep your toilet clean and make the entire bathroom smell fantastic, clean, and deodorized at all times. They are very easy to use; don't over-complicate the instructions. I did, thinking there had to be more to it than that. You just stick it on the inside of the toilet and it will stay in place and clean the toilet each time it is flushed. I love these!" — J. D. Robinson
Get six stamps from Amazon for $5.49.
22. A pair of nonstick silicone baking mats so you can say "buh-bye" to burnt-on bits that make your sheet pans impossible to clean. AND these have all the same slick, nonstick benefits of single-use parchment paper and foil but without the waste!
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I was recommended this product by a friend and all I can think is, 'Where has this been all my life?!' Nothing so far has stuck to these, and they are so easy to clean. I bought new baking sheets to go with them, and they keep them so clean!! Food still gets beautifully done but without the need to scrape the residue off your baking sheets afterward. I love this product!!!" — Charmed316
Get a pair from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in two styles).
23. A 52-sheet to-do list pad for when you're overwhelmed with all the things that need doing and just don't know where to start. Blank legal pads do not inspire, but this cutie sure does!
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I LOVE this product! I live off lists every day at work, and this keeps me super organized! I have my daily list, top three priorities, things I need to remember for the next day, and miscellaneous notes all on the same page!" — Ldsappy
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in six colors/styles).
24. A handy bag holder featured on Shark Tank that'll get all your groceries from the car to the house in ONE run. It easily holds up to 80 pounds and can be carried by hand or tossed over your shoulder (it's padded) for hands-free ease.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Click & Carry is a Los Angeles-based, woman-owned small biz founded by Kim Meckwood as a way to solve her own struggles lugging shopping bags around. Since then, the Click & Carry has been utilized for a range of uses, from carrying paint cans to sports equipment.
Promising review:"I heard about this product from a friend and had been meaning to check it out. My only regret about this purchase is not getting it earlier! I used to dread going to the grocery store due to the hassle of struggling with all my bags and the multiple trips to and from the car. Now, those days are a thing of the past because of this ESSENTIAL product. After realizing my newfound love of this product, I did some research and found all sorts of other uses for it, such as using it to secure my purse to my shopping cart and hooking my dog leashes together to walk both dogs at the same time. I love this product and love gifting it to others as well!" — Lisa Gilroy
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in seven colors).
25. A wall-mounted shower hair catcher if too much of your shower time is spent working to free your fingers from a nest of loose hair. Instead of shaking it off to clog your drain or smearing it on the wall, simply run your fingers through this cat's silicone "teeth" to trap that hairball and move on.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Shower Cat is the small business behind this...well..shower cat.
Promising review:" This little thing has saved us so much time and effort when cleaning the shower! Just stick it up with the included adhesive, and every time you wash your hair you can just rub your finger along the silicone nubs to catch it. Holds quite a bit of hair, and has outlasted even bleaching the shower. Super simple to clean, and stood up to being sprayed directly with cleaner and rinsed out." — Gwynne Bee
Get it from Amazon for $14.95 (available in white and pink).
26. A convenient waterless pet shampoo to quickly freshen up your furry friend when it's been a tad too long since their last bath. Simply spray it on, towel it off, and enjoy your dog's silky, shiny, freshly scented coat.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"This product has a somewhat strong lavender smell while applying, instructions say spray — let sit for a minute — towel off excess and brush your dog. The smell is lovely and leaves my dogs' fur feeling clean and soft. I have three large dogs and have used it three times on each dog's full body and still have half a bottle left! Will for sure order again. I have never experienced a product that works so well!" — Sarah
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three sizes and in three scents).
27. A slide-away storage bag because you're tired of feeling like every waking moment is spent picking up stray Lego blocks and other tiny (aka painful) toys. This drawstring compartment doubles as a play mat and, when your kid is done, closes in on itself to whisk away toys quicker than you can say, "Put your toys away."
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I really like this for my kid's Duplo Lego bricks, but I think it could be used for a lot more than that. I want to get one for my kid's train track. The fabric part is really large and would fit the track on it. I found the cleanup is extremely easy; all you do is lift up the fabric and it all goes in the bin. An added bonus: My 2-year-old can dump over the bin, and it stays on the fabric part. I also would like to add that I like the fabric on the outside of the bin; it looks durable and good quality." — KFundy

Chaos As Cruise Ship Window Shatters Raining Glass Onto Busy Pool Deck
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. Footage capturing the alarming moment a glass panel from a cruise ship restaurant suddenly fell onto a pool deck has captivated viewers on social media. The frightening incident unfolded aboard Royal Caribbean's Symphony of the Seas cruise ship on June 8. The vessel was said to be turning to dock at its first scheduled stop in Port Canaveral, Florida. Tytti Tuliainen, a 40-year-old travel content creator from Finland, shared a view of the glass panel crashing onto the deck, with guests watching from the pool, in a video posted on her YouTube channel @TravelingFinnishGirl. Newsweek has contacted Royal Caribbean by email and @missdiane93 via TikTok for comment. This video has not been independently verified. The YouTuber was having lunch at a restaurant on the ship when she heard the window cracking. Tuliainen told Newsweek: "I was dining in the Coastal Kitchen above the pool deck when it happened." @missdiane93 This happened today on Symphony of the Seas! Great staff member noticed it and cleared the area. ♬ original sound - MissDiane Another view of the scene from the pool deck was captured in a video shared by TikTok user @missdiane93. The clip, which has amassed more than 3.8 million views since it was posted on June 9, shows the glass panel cracking before dropping onto sun loungers by the pool. A man is shown flinching and running away just as the glass drops, with the murmur of alarmed crowds heard in the background. A voice off-camera says: "That would have just hit us." Cruise travel continues to see strong growth in the post-COVID-19 pandemic era. A 2025 report by the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) found that cruise passenger numbers are projected to reach 37.7 million in 2025. Eighty-two percent of cruisers are planning to cruise again, while 68 percent of international travelers are considering going on their first cruise. First-time cruisers were reported to be driving the growth, with 31 percent of passengers in the last two years being new to cruise, according to the CLIA. Users on Reddit also shared posts about the incident, including by u/ Smooth_J24 and u/ireadmorethenpost, who shared an image of staff members examining the site of the shattered glass. Tuliainen said: "When the glass shattered unexpectedly, one of the crew members working in the restaurant—Nitin Kumar—ran down to move people away from under the floor-to-ceiling window. Thanks to his quick response, no one was hurt." The cruise website Cruise Fever said Kumar responded to the incident in a Facebook group created for the cruise trip, saying: "Thank you so much everyone for appreciation, you all are my family, what I did I did for family … what I did I learn from this company how to take care of my guests like family, so thank you so much. Enjoy your vacation." Staff members reportedly responded immediately and passengers reported that "the window is already replaced," with repairs done swiftly, according to Cruise Fever. Tuliainen said: "No one knows why the window broke. Only the outside panel shattered, and there was no impact that anyone saw." The cruise was said to have resumed normal operations, going onto the Bahamas with its return to New Jersey scheduled for June 13. Stock image: A Royal Caribbean cruise ship sails at sea.

Kyle Richards Is ‘Monitoring' Daughter Sophia's Diet After Taking Mounjaro and Suffering Hair Loss
Kyle Richards' daughter Sophia Umanksy has been opening up about her scary hair loss that she claims was caused by taking Mounjaro – and a source exclusively tells Life & Style that mom Kyle and dad Mauricio Umansky are both worried sick. "They are really upset that she's taking a weight loss drug when she doesn't need to lose any weight. It's especially upsetting for Kyle because she suffered from an eating disorder when she was younger and the last thing she wants is to see her daughter go through anything similar," a source exclusively tells Life & Style. "Sophia insists that she needed to take it, that she had weight she needed help losing, but the reality is she is not overweight and never has been. It's very worrisome for her parents and they're begging her to stop before she seriously damages her health." Life & Style's source says that Sophia, 25, is "not getting enough nutrients if her hair is falling out." However, the former Buying Beverly Hills star "has vowed to get better about what she eats, but the concern is whether she will actually follow through." "Kyle is now monitoring her diet and nagging her to take her vitamins," the insider continues. "No matter how old Sophia gets Kyle and Mauricio will still dote on her, that's how they are with their kids, they are very hands-on parents." In addition to Sophia, Kyle, 56, and Mauricio, 54, who announced their separation in July 2023, also share kids Alexia Umansky, 28, and Portia Umansky, 17. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star also shares her oldest daughter, Farrah Aldjufrie, 36, with ex-husband Guraish Aldjufrie. In May, Sophia revealed that she was taking Mounjaro for a few months for weight loss purposes. The drug is intended for people who are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. However, the reality star grew concerned once she noticed that her hair was continuously falling out. "I am very lucky that I have so much hair because at the rate that I've been losing hair, I'm going to be bald in about one week. I started Mounjaro about four months ago and I would say, like, maybe for the past three weeks to one month, I've noticed a dramatic hair loss situation," Sophia said in a May 1 TikTok video. Later in the clip, Sophia admitted that she wasn't following a healthy nutrient-based diet to accommodate her rapid weight loss. "Because of the medication and not eating enough vitamins, protein, all that kind of stuff," she admitted. "I feel like at the beginning of starting this medication, I was just making sure I was eating enough. I wasn't really thinking about enough protein, enough vitamins, all that kind of stuff. So, I think because of that, I have started losing hair." Despite Sophia's transparency, the comments section of the post was filled with people who criticized her for taking a weight loss drug. She reacted to the hate via TikTok two weeks later and backed her decision to take the medication. "Manjaro is FDA approved for type 2 diabetes, but it's also being prescribed safely and legally for weight management and metabolic issues, and I'm not gonna lay out my full medical chart here for you guys, but just know that my doctor and I made this decision for good reasons," Sophia said in the May 12 video. "And yes, I am losing a ton of hair, but I still think it's worth it. I think my confidence has never been better and that, to me, makes it worth it." Sophia also shared that she's managing her weight loss "with vitamins and supplements and a new routine," and that her hair loss is not a "deal breaker" for her. Copyright 2025 A360 Media.

ERL Pre-Fall 2025 Collection
Eli Russell Linnetz has made a sharp swerve. After some time focusing on boy-next-door prep—khaki bermudas, old-school cotton boxers, popped-collar polo shirts—Linnetz is drifting into another key pocket of Americana: the freewheeling tradition of the motorcycle rider. Think Marlon Brando in The Wild One with a whiff of '90s grunge and a splash of Tom of Finland. For those in need of more contemporary references: Imagine Austin Butler's character in The Bikeriders hanging out in Venice Beach today. All this to say—it's grubby, sexy, and pretty cool. 'I guess I was just feeling super angsty after doing so much preppy stuff,' offered Linnetz. He was just ahead of the curve when he embraced the world of prep—since then, it's been flip flops, double polo shirts, cargo shorts, and plaid boxer shorts galore on the menswear scene, particularly on the streets and in TikTok's 'For You' pages. Could he be right on the money once more with this latest switch up? His cool riffs on the classic Perfecto jacket are hot and messy; their slim, cropped silhouettes feel right for the current moment. He said he and his team sourced vintage jackets and took them apart to piece them back together. The tight, bicep-hugging fit of his baby tees, henleys, and button-downs, plus his boot-cut jeans—not quite skinny yet not as wide as pants have been for the better part of the 2020s—speak to the way men have started to dress, first online but now off-screen too. The collection has an intentional topsy-turvy look and feel—'chaos' is how Linnetz described it. It's also more erotic and grown-up than it's looked in recent seasons, or perhaps ever. Linnetz has always leveraged the sex appeal of the all-American bro, but here he's spiced it up with a sharper edge and a little bit of danger. Chalk that up to a collaboration with Peter Berlin, the elusive multi-hyphenate artist who made a name for himself within the gay community as both artist and muse in the '70s and '80s. Berlin is known for his signature bowl cut and provocative outfits—a photo of him features on a t-shirt here—as well as for his youthful omnipresence in the cruisy streets of San Francisco and in his gay male erotic films. He posed for Andy Warhol and Tom of Finland and Robert Mapplethorpe. Berlin, who is alive and working, has been on everyone's moodboard. Linnetz said that he connected with Berlin through a friend. The artist then offered him his photographic archive for a collaboration. Berlin was a clear aesthetic fit for the story about a mischievous motorcycle gang Linnetz crafted for this collection and lookbook. 'He's a true Californian artist, and this is the first time I ever really collaborated with another artist,' said Linnetz. This pre-fall lineup is also the first time that Linnetz has produced a collection entirely in California. He shifted his production before news of the tariffs broke, still, this launch feels particularly appropriate. Linnetz just has that kind of timing.
