Quince Carry-On Suitcase
Shopping for your favorite jet-setter? For only $130, Quince’s roomy polycarbonate shell carry-on has 360-degree spinner wheels, a sturdy aluminum telescopic trolley handle with soft rubber for comfort, interior compression panels, TSA-approved locks and a removable laundry bag.
The capacity offers enough space for six to nine outfits, and there’s a 18-by-12.5-inch interior pocket for storage. Available in a range of colorways — both core and seasonal — Quince’s signature suitcase is also offered in a smaller carry-on size and multiple checked-in varieties.

Sans Filtered Showerhead
$126.75 $169 25% off
Conditioner alone isn’t the secret to silky hair. And neither is moisturizer for nourished skin.
Since most city water is treated with either chlorine or chloramine (which can leave skin and hair feeling dry), it’s important to go to the root, aka the showerhead, and Sans Filtered Showerhead reduces more than 99 percent of both.
$185 value
La Mer 2-Piece Mini Holiday Skincare Set
La Mer’s premium skin-care duo doubles as a sweet Christmas ornament.
Chanel Baume Essentiel Multi-Use Glow Stick
Swipe Chanel’s hydrating highlighting balm across your face, eyes and lips to deliver a subtle wash of color and fresh, dewy effect.
Their Claire Drop Earrings
Founded by husband and wife duo, actor Alexander Ludwig and Lauren Ludwig, Their jewelry strikes the perfect balance between timeless classics and modern heirlooms.
The Claire is our new favorite, where created white sapphires meets 14K gold vermeil. And somehow, they’re even more striking in real life.
111Skin Celestial Black Diamond Eye Mask (Pack of Four)
There’s no better companion for tired eyes than an insanely quenching mask, and 111Skin’s Celestial Black Diamond Eye Mask is just that. The cult-favorite skin product is a Hollywood magnet, with the brand’s famous fans including Anne Hathaway, Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Anniston and Bella Hadid.
Heritage Steel x Eater 8-Piece Core Set
For your favorite home chef, Heritage Steel’s eight-piece set is the pinnacle of versatile cookware. It’s oven and broiler safe up to 800 degrees and designed for use on all types of stovetops, including induction. The Core Set includes a 10.5-inch and 12-inch fry pan, a three quart saucepan with lid, a four quart sauté pan with lid and an eight quart stock pot with lid.
Nike Zoom Vomero 5
First and foremost, metallic silver is a neutral, which means these Nikes have all the benefits of a classic white sneaker without the monotony (and that’s coming from a white sneaker loyalist). They’re also the quintessential “dad” sneaker without being too “dad.”
While technically a running shoe, these have maintained their position as a celebrity street style staple thanks to their Y2K aesthetic and effortless “cool” factor. From the gym to the airplane to the vineyard (paired with a midi skirt, perhaps), these sneakers have versatility at their core.
Hoka Clifton 11 Running Shoe
Hoka’s Clifton 11 is the latest iteration of the brand’s versatile Clifton line. These everyday sneakers are another one of our favorite shoes for travel, thanks to the heel tab that makes pulling them on a breeze after TSA checks. The sturdy silhouette also makes it easy to run through airports and cities alike.
Coach Soft Empire Carryall Bag 48 in Black Loved Leather
Speaking of travel, Coach’s Empire Carryall Bag 48 is genuinely our dream weekender, especially in the newer Loved Leather finish which only gets better with age. Bonus: Its intentional lived-in look means you don’t have to be too precious with it.
AncestryDNA Kit
$34 $99 66% off

Kinn Osla Oval Signet Ring Diamond
One more favorite for the fine jewelry fans. This creation by Kinn is sophisticated and satisfyingly chunky.
