Strategist writer Kat Gillespie rounded up all the best new stuff this week (that might also, incidentally, make great gifts). A few highlights: this set of notebooks with a cozy (yet classy) East Fork mug, Rachel Antonoff cookie jars, and some pointelle pieces from Leset’s Madewell collection. 

In gifting news: Part two of the Strategist’s Carefully Selected, Unusually Special Gift Guide is here, this time highlighting 91 ideas under $200, including supremely soft boxers and an “it” hairbrush; here are dozens of non-boring stocking stuffers under $25; and Brenley Goertzen sifted through all of our What I Can’t Live Without archives to find things famous people love that will make great presents. 

Also — Beauty Brief has partnered with HigherDOSE to offer one lucky reader its Red-Light Face Mask. We can confirm it’s one of the best out there (we tested it for months).

Rachael Griffiths scoured the internet, asked fellow writers, and even jotted down the charms she spotted in real life to compile a list of the most delightful bag charms. She says this dreamy cloud is her top Jellycat pick. (Although, if we’re only speaking Jellycat, I’m quite fond of this impractically adorable sun-shaped one.)
