Shopping experts share the purchases they made for themselves and their families in February
Photo: Courtesy of Retailers If you follow our biweekly feature Your Shopping Cart, you know that we have some eerily good intel on what you all are buying. Which led us to think that, as Strategist editors, we could turn the tables and highlight all the things we’ve been buying for ourselves. As you’ll notice, it’s both a blessing and a curse to be a Strategist editor; we’re picky, but sometimes we just have to get on with it. Below, what we all bought in February.
$400 at Amazon Buy $400 at Amazon Buy Aveda be curly™ Curl Enhancer Or maybe it looks better because I switched up my hair products. I’m not sure what to think about the recent DevaCurl backlash, but it scared me enough that I bought the highly-recommended Aveda’s Be Curly curl enhancer.
$100 at Bed Bath & Beyond Buy S'well Eats Large Food Storage Set $50 at Amazon Buy $50 at Amazon Buy S'well 14 oz. Eats Prep Bowl, Set of 4 $25 for 4 at Bloomingdale’s Buy After lots of research on better reusable containers for lunches, I landed on S’well’s new eats containers, because they have two parts: an insulated bowl to keep everything warm and an interior, removable, microwave-safe prep bowl.
Weather: A novel by Jenny Offill $18 I also bought the climate-change book that everyone’s talking about and tore through it during an unseasonably warm weekend. It’s a very meditative — and hilarious — tome of doom. $40 at Nordstrom Buy Patagonia Retro Pile Pullover Jacket $75 I can’t stop buying nubby fleeces from Patagonia. After buying this last month in zip-up-vest form, in black, I recently saw the full-zip Retro Pile jacket on sale in cobalt, so I snagged that, too. Given that I also own the half-zip version in the oatmeal-ish color, I am hoping these very fuzzy times we are in stay that way for at least another winter.
$89 at West Elm Buy Hilary Reid, writer Tom Ford Cat-Eye Acetate Optical Frames I’ve been wearing a pair of rimless glasses for the past few years, but they were starting to feel a little too 19th-century-antiquarian-bookseller, so I set out to find something new. After trying on a gazillion pairs of thick acetate frames and round wire frames, I finally landed on this basic Tom Ford pair.
$29 at Amazon Buy $29 at Amazon Buy Lauren Ro, writer Pepa and Company Blue Bloomers and White Shirt Set $116 at Pepa and Company Buy Pepa and Company Beige Ribbed Knee-High Socks $8 at Pepa and Company Buy Pepa and Company Blue Leather T-Bar Shoes $64 at Pepa and Company Buy Augie celebrated his first birthday and got baptized this past weekend. Naturally, I took that as an excuse to splurge on a special outfit for the occasion.
$5 at Amazon Buy $5 at Amazon Buy Jungmaven Earth Flag Baja Long Sleeve Tee I’ve loved Jungmaven’s rough and stretchy tees and sweatshirts, which are made out of climate-friendly hemp, for years. I’ve always stuck to their solid designs, but couldn’t resist picking up the longsleeve, white option from their cozy new Earth Day shirt range when it was released this month.
$4 at Sustain Ecostore Buy Jambys in Black My friend Andrew recently started a company called Jambys that makes boxers with pockets. And though we are buds, and I trust that anything he makes would be great, I was a little skeptical about the need for such a product. Then this month he sent a few pairs to the office for us to try. Now I sleep in them every night. The surprising thing about Jambys, which are basically house shorts, is how insanely soft they are to the touch.
