    Friends with Graza

    I don't use a ton of olive oil in my day to day but this stuff definitely both hits the spot, and makes a nice gift. The squeeze bottle is annoyingly great. Annoyingly because I wish I thought of it. The brand is wonderful and the I enjoy their emails too. I always have both Graza and Brightland on my countertop. Thanks team!

    Honestly, I should just put their phony negroni on subscription because I enjoy it that much. I'm not someone who adheres to drinking no alcohol, but I don't personally tend to drink alone. So on the occasion where I'm having a solo night and want a cocktail this scratches the itch really well. P.S. Love the bottle shape

    Warby Parker

    I love convenience and Warby Parker is ultimately very convenient. I honestly never loved the frames or brands that are so prevalent at regular eyeglass / optometrist shops and offices. I was always sacrificing something just to get in, get a frame and get out. Warby Parker frames are pretty innocuous, I love that they don't have a big branding element on them because I don't want to walk around wearing a billboard. I tried their eye doctor appointment service last time and it was simple and efficient. Time to get the frames and prescriptions cut and sent to me was reasonably quick. And that I could do so much online in the process was awesome. I own a pair of regular glasses and a pair of sunglasses, I use the sunglasses playing beach volleyball so they've been beat up a bit but they're still chugging along. I do find these glasses easier to scratch than some previous glasses, and they shoot off glare more I think than older glasses but it's a small price to pay for ease of use and understated styling. Would definitely recommend.

    quip

    I think Just Okay really describes quip for me. I actually stopped using it about a year ago, maybe more. Like others noted, it's this weird middle ground where it's not an electric toothbrush and not a regular one. Honestly it was pretty simple for me... I felt that i got a better clean manually brushing my teeth than with quip. I used it until I used up all my heads and just didn't re up. The head was kind of small and bristles didn't feel as effective in my opinion. But then again I have tried a lot of toothbrushes and find myself going back again and again to the big brands. I would love to cut down on my plastic waste but can't find a more sustainable solution that is as effective.

    Buck Mason

    These are my go to tees, absolutely. In all other teeshirts I feel like a garbage person, but when I throw on my buck Mason ones, which are cut and fit and trimmed just right, I feel like Brad freaking Pitt. Some of their other items haven't landed for me, I don't love having to get the pants hemmed for example, but otherwise I always recommend buck Mason. Top notch. Oh, and importantly, I feel like their clothes reallllly last even after many repeated washings.

    Stance Socks

    Stance makes my go to no stick no show socks, but I don't generally love how long they last. I mostly have bombas in my sock portfolio, but do have a few slots for stance because I think they make a superior functional product for no show no slip. Not my favorite but I still recommend for specific use to friends.

    Allbirds

    Yeah, so I keep coming back and trying new allbirds and I have to say I'm always just like... Okay with them. My early pairs fell apart pretty quickly, loosing shape. They've definitely gotten better at quality, construction and materials. But I still feel like other shoes just last longer. That being said I absolutely love their mission and the fact they push innovation on sustainable product, material and processes. They're a brand I look up to with my own in this respect. I wear my allbirds occasionally now, mostly so they don't wear out too quick, but still mostly reach for my Atoms.

    Bombas

    Yeah, so on the one hand they're pretty much just socks and you can get socks anywhere. But on the other hand, I keep coming back, and have recently replaced my whole sock wardrobe with bombas. I noticed some folks saying they have quality issues... I haven't had a single hole in a single sock ever, which may just be a fluke. But I enjoy the colors, I dress pretty plainly everywhere else except for my bombas socks so that's nice. And I like how easy their site is to order. I honestly think their gift packs are nice too, who doesn't like receiving socks as a gift when you're over 30?

    These suitcases are okay, I own two and they hold up just fine if not showing a bit of wear on the outside. They haven't broken which is great. I don't typically have much love for luggage so overall I'm a bit ambivalent.
