Sometimes an item is just so good that you simply must buy multiples of it. Whether it's a set of wine glasses or the softest bath towels, every so often you find something that checks every box, and therefore you end the search for anything else in that category. Those special items are essential to pay attention to, because they're a testament to how much a shopper - especially someone you trust - values them.

To say that fish are trending right now feels sort of silly, but it's true: The tinned fish frenzy that started in the wake of the pandemic has proved to have serious staying power; I've seen fish of all sorts adorning tank tops, shoulder bags, and sweaters from seemingly every it-girl brand; and there are so many aquatic-themed tableware options at this point that you could easily outfit a dinner party table entirely with fishy finds.

Thanksgiving is right around the corner, which means so is Article's Black Friday sale. But if you're getting restless in anticipation of the marathon shopping holiday, there are a few early discounts you can shop right now. Whether you need to get a head start on your bedroom refresh or score a deal on that dining table you've been eyeing just in time for holiday hosting, Article has Scandi-inspired wares

If you've ever watched your dog or cat leap onto the bed or sofa with reckless abandon, you know the mix of pride and worry that comes with it every single time they make that jump. Pets love being close to their humans and feel safest at elevated heights, but those jumps can put a lot of strain on their joints, especially as they age or if they're recovering from injury or surgery.

If there's one thing you learn being a shopping writer, it's that Black Friday sales never come too early. Even in October, we're snooping on the early Crate & Barrel Black Friday sales to see where we can score big deals on some of our favorite sectionals, home decor, and furniture collabs (see Jeremiah Brent, Athena Calderone, and Louise Roe).

While many historic trends should probably stay in the past, the best beanbag chairs are one item making a very welcome comeback. These playful pieces of furniture emerged on the design scene in the late 1960s when Italy's Zanotta Design commissioned Cesare Paolini, Piero Gatti, and Franco Teodoro to design the first beanbag chair. It quickly took off from there, becoming a laid-back fixture in basements and living rooms across the world.

"Canopy beds add an instant sense of charm and architecture to a space, creating a feeling of enclosure that's both playful and cozy," explains Cate Gutter, owner and principal designer at CWG Design in Charlotte, North Carolina. "I love how a canopy bed can anchor a room visually, while offering opportunities to layer pattern and texture in a way that feels intentional - but still lighthearted."

Step 1: Start by Grouping Like Items Litman's first tip was to pull everything off the shelves and sort it into categories. "Start by grouping all your items together. Then decide what you want to showcase and group based on category," she says. "This could be grouping by collections, types of books, colors, or whatever you feel makes sense for your stuff."

Welcome to the retro reset, where '70s, '80s and '90s aesthetics are getting a second life. It's not just in fashion and film but in home décor and tech. Whether you actually lived through it or long for a past you never experienced, nostalgia is fueling a surge of interest from Gen X to Gen Z in throwback styles that blend vintage charm with modern convenience.

Picture this: You're sitting in front of a warm fireplace, enjoying the crackling sounds of the flames. Make that dream a reality with the best electric fireplaces on Amazon. Sure, you can pull out a space heater to make your space more toasty, but an electric fireplace provides an opportunity to get warm and make an aesthetic choice at the same time. Unlike tending to real flames or gas fireplaces, these require virtually zero maintenance and often just need an outlet to work.

Aside from the whole aromatherapy factor, they're also a champion vibe setter, mood-lifter, and the most-well curated among them can also serve as decor. It's a big reason why they've become a safety gift: the one thing you can pick up on the sly when you forgot to buy a potted plant for a housewarming party or a more specific holiday present.

When it comes to the ultimate easygoing, elevated bedding, you'll want to reach for the best linen sheets. This fabric is an old faithful with great range, seen everywhere from Scandi-style beach houses to cozy, colorful city apartments, owing to their breathability and relaxed look. And while you may think linen is just for summer and waterfront locales-yes, the moisture-wicking fabric works beautifully for body temperature regulation-the cozy, long-lasting material has become increasingly popular year-round for sheets, duvets, and shams for any style or space.

I enjoy nothing more in the fall than flopping onto my couch for two to infinity hours and binge-watching my favorite comfort show (ahem, Gilmore Girls). I live for the comfort of my cozy cushions and the vibes of fall decor and scented candles surrounding me. Obviously, for the optimal viewing experience, you need the perfect couch - whatever that means for you.

Tiny camouflaged secrets hidden around my home? Little whimsical surprises where you'd least expect them? Sign me up. I didn't buy any right away, but I couldn't stop thinking about them. Now that it's fall, I started, as I usually do, to think of ways to make my family's home just a little bit cozier, which goes hand in hand with ways to make our days more whimsical in my mind.

In an era where accent walls are still very much in the trendsphere, the newest DIY look to hit Instagram is one that left me in awe. The pattern resembles something that would be featured in a luxe wallpaper, but knowing you can craft it yourself for less is a significant win. Conceptualized by interior designer Jewel Marlowe, which she coined as "Jewelachite," it's about to become your latest paint obsession.

When you open Instagram or TikTok, it feels like every new design trend is everywhere all at once. One month it's bouclé chairs, the next it's neon signs or checkerboard rugs. Algorithms push the same images on repeat, making it seem like these looks are timeless must-haves,

When we moved into our four-bedroom apartment last year, I knew I had to do something to personalize the walls. Since we had already splurged on two large paintings, I decided to finally tackle creating a gallery wall. Given our collection of watercolors and drawings - we love to buy art when we travel, and my husband's a diplomat by day and artist by night - it would've been a waste not to hang the pieces we've accumulated.

I know a column at the Whitman Plaza Goodwill absolutely hates to see me coming,

Juan from Home With Juan on Instagram recently showed off his latest find in a video posted to his feed. It's a bright orange, circle-shaped hamper that splits in half for easy access to clothing on laundry day. It looks more like a sculpture than a hamper, and is also a great size for smaller spaces. "So sick and fits in that little corner PERFECTLY," Juan wrote in his caption.
