NYC is home to some of the most indulgent, texture-obsessed cookies you’ll ever try—and this list rounds up the very best. From giant melty-center chocolate chip monsters to delicate classics, vegan treats, late-night wins, and flavor experiments, Annie’s picks span the sweet spectrum. Whether you’re hunting for that perfect crisp edge with a gooey inside or a black-and-white you’ll never forget, these cookies are worth the crumb trail through the city.

These are my tried-and-true skincare products that are also popular with beauty lovers, dermatologists, and influencers. From glow-boosting serums to gentle cleansers, each pick earns its spot for results you’ll actually see in the mirror.

Building a wardrobe that actually works for your everyday life means investing in timeless basics that mix and match effortlessly. These women’s wardrobe essentials are pieces I actually wear on repeat — from the perfect white tee to sneakers that go with everything. Think capsule closet, but practical for errands, work, and weekend plans in 2025.

Fall is the season where your coat is the outfit. I pulled together the coolest fall coats and jackets that I’ve started to see around NYC and in my late night shopping scrolls. Think bomber jackets, chic trenches, sleek wool coats, and cozy puffers. 🍂🖤

I’ve tested more products than I can count, but these are the ones that never leave my makeup bag. They’re the ride-or-die staples I keep repurchasing because they always deliver. From flawless bases to lipsticks that last through an NYC day, this is my edit of makeup that’s 100% worth it. If you try any, let me know which ones become your new holy grails too! ⚡️ Tip: If you’re building a makeup routine, start with base + brows + lips from this list — instant polished look in under 10 minutes.

Being a mom doesn’t mean you have to give up on style. I’ve rounded up my holy-grail gear that makes life with a toddler way easier — without turning your home, stroller, or outfit into a neon plastic explosion. This list is full of elevated mom hacks: diaper bags that could pass for designer, baby gear that blends with your décor, chic travel lifesavers, and everyday style upgrades that keep you feeling pulled-together (even on no-sleep days). If you’ve ever thought: “There’s no way I’m carrying that giant cartoon diaper bag” or “Why are all play mats so ugly?” — this list is for you. Every pick is practical, tested, and stylish enough to fit seamlessly into your city-cool vibe. Save this for yourself (or gift to a mom friend who refuses to settle for boring).

I’ve bought more ‘viral’ products thanks to TikTok than I care to admit. But not every product lives up to its hype. Here are the TikTok finds I’ve seen trending in my For You feed and truly believe are worth it.
