BTW, this is Skimm Your Life. Every Thursday, we Skimm your shopping cart, streaming queue, and bookshelf. Because we know you have a million and one things to do each week. So with each newsletter (pssst: you have to sign up to keep receiving our picks), we’ll help you discover things quicker, so you can spend your downtime smarter.
If you like the sound of that, you can subscribe here.
Not convinced? Check out our fave picks of this week…
Skimm Faves
Cozy fall clothes under $50 you can wear to work. Maybe you’re heading back to your office for the first time in a long time. And maybe pants with zippers now seem like a foreign concept. If so, you’re gonna want to say hello to these.
14 dog coats that are equal parts adorable and functional. The only thing better than shopping for clothes for yourself is shopping for clothes for your pup. “America's Next Top Dog Model” is calling.
Comfy and stylish shoes to wear this fall. Out: flip-flops. In: booties, loafers, and clogs. Here are our fave options for walking more than just a few blocks.
Our 10 favorite leggings to work out, lounge, and live in. Consider these your new second skin. Say goodbye to the sweats you’ve been living in. Pssst...we’ve got lots of budget-friendly pairs.
How to make every night a starry one. These globe string lights and this LED clear rope will add juuuuust the right amount of twinkle to your end-of-summer evenings. Rainy forecast? No problem. You can use ’em both inside too.*
The build-your-own snack box of your dreams. SnackMagic lets you choose from over 1,000 food, bev, and merch items to satisfy those afternoon munchies in the best way. They’ve also got made-to-order items, like berry crumb pie or assorted macarons. Psst...Skimm’rs get 10% off.*
Oven-roasted dog food that’s good for the planet. This certified cruelty-free brand worked with a veterinarian to develop their healthy, plant-based formula for pups. Because they believe that pet owners shouldn’t have to choose between sustainability and high-quality food. Here’s 50% off your first order.*
Three totally random things we’re loving this week. This pleated headband, these sheer argyle socks, and this pair of U-shaped earrings.
Problem, Solved
Getting dressed comes with its share of minor struggles: like trying to reach a zipper that’s juuust a bit too low or breaking in a new pair of boots. So we pulled together a few handy solutions for some common annoyances when it comes to all things apparel. (You didn’t hear it from us, but we’re pretty sure Miranda Priestly swears by these.)
For when you need an extra pair of hands to put something on…Enter this dress zipper puller and this bracelet tool. Aka your new best friends. No more awkward fumbling.
For when you wanna avoid back-of-the-heel blisters…Apply a bit of this balm before you slip on those new shoes and say buh-bye to painful rubbing. It’s infused with vitamins A and C to help soften and moisturize skin.
For when you’re trying to layer necklaces without creating a tangled mess…Attach your chains to this detangler clasp to keep ‘em separate. Pssst...it works best with chains of varying lengths. You got this.
Hot Off the Web
The best TV of 2021 (so far). The critics have spoken. And these hidden streaming gems aren’t so hidden anymore.
16 fall items from Trader Joe’s to get excited about. Spoiler: There’s more to autumn than just pumpkin spice.
A guide to unshrinking your sweaters. If you’ve pulled an ‘oops...I did it again’ one too many times. And your chunky knits now look like an American Girl doll outfit. We gotchu.
12 easy Mexican-inspired air fryer recipes. For when the kids are at soccer practice, you’ve got a work thing to finish up, and it’s almost dinnertime.
A full-body cardio workout that doesn’t require jumping. If you wish your middle school PE teachers knew about this...you’re not alone.
The 411 on eating ‘healthy.’ We’re demystifying some theories about metabolism, eating breakfast, and more.
Talk soon,
