Intelligencer - I Can’t Stop Buying Decks of Cards

Contributor Sydney Colburn owns over 70 decks of cards. From the taxi-cab cards she picked up on Canal Street on her wedding day, to a deck filled with different celebrity illustrations (the Jacks include Jackie O. and Jack Nicholson), she walked us through her extensive collection. (Did you know you can buy David Shrigley–designed playing cards?)

Sleater Kinney’s Corin Tucker and Carrie Brownstein told us about the clothing, beverages, and appliances they both can’t live without (some highlights include the Jungmaven tee Brownstein owns seven of, and the headphones Tucker prefers to AirPods) and Steve Aoki told us about the sleep mask he (still) can’t live without.

Also on the site: Beauty columnist Rio Viera-Newton tried (almost) everything at the Ordinary to find what’s worth buying; Ambar Pardilla chatted with shoe obsessives and sneaker collectors to find the best white sneakers, and Jeremy Rellosa’s family group chat is 95 percent birds now (thanks to this smart feeder).

And in case you missed it, it’s not too late to shop some major sitewide sales going on at Nordstrom, Fenty, Ole Henriksen, and Soko Glam. —Ashley Wolfgang, newsletter editor
