Getting into a book slump is a reader’s worst nightmare. Check these titles out if you’re in need of a little more of a page turner! These are all books I’ve read so far this year and would pass on to another reader’s shelf to share for them to experience as well.

In 2025, I graduated college, moved to NYC, and found myself with ample time to read on my daily commute to work on the train. Disconnecting from your phone (since you only have signal at the stops anyway) and reading a book feels super freeing, and I can’t wait to read more in 2026!

Being a jewelry maker during the current situation with the tariffs can be hard, but shopping American sellers on Etsy can help! Shop local easily with Etsy and find amazing beautiful things!

Doing a DIY project is one of the best ways to be creative, reduce stress, relax and have fun, and even be social, when you do projects with friends! I love working with my hands, and making a thing I can hold in my hand at the end is the best part!

Baggu is a massively trendy brand that makes the best eco-friendly organization pouches and bags. These are some of my favorite Baggu products!

These are my staples—I use them every day! Keeping me sane in the sea of beauty products to choose from

These items are must-haves for your college life backpack, coming from a 2025 grad!

These are the best eats for Tartans, Panthers, and anyone in Pittsburgh!

Some things have already sold out on UO, but I compiled most of the Miffy Baggu drop that came out 3/6 here! (What’s left of it, anyway…) Get yours before they sell out completely! Urban exclusives will NOT restock according to their social media.

Here are a few of my favorite small businesses in small town, Northeastern Ohio, central to Minerva/Alliance/Carrollton area!

I’m a Glossier super fan and r/Glossier connoisseur, so I wanted to put together a decisive list of my favorite Glossier products available right now! I also use the TYB app to get points for free items!

I’m always looking for something new to try, and something new to make! These tutorials have such valuable skills!

I love Snoopy, so I wanted to compile all my favorite Snoopy and Peanuts merch here!

I love Strawberry Shortcake, so I wanted to compile a list of my favorite merch I’ve found online!

I love UO! Here are my Spring picks—If I had unlimited $$$ this would all be mine :)

This is a collection of all the things I find most important (and love the most) when sewing. Sewists actually need so much!
