For this week’s Don’t Dillydally, we’ve surfaced a range of new things we’re sure will sell out — including a Jansport backpack designed for wheelchair users, Nécessaire’s new winter skin-saving body cream, and BBQ-flavored popcorn developed by Kelly Clarkson and the Jonas Brothers.
BTS Butter x Samsonite Red
We’re sorry to say that most of the new BTS Butter Recipe collection — a collaboration between K-Pop favorites BTS and luggage experts Samsonite — sold out in a predictable instant. ARMYs (as fans refer to themselves) haven’t quite cleared out everything: Still available is this cute and practical travel case that looks just like a pat of “Butter.” You’ve likely only got a matter of hours or minutes left to purchase it, though.
KULE x Madewell
Not only does KULE make some of the best striped tees for women, but the New York–based brand is also known for supporting reproductive health. Its new collaboration with Madewell commemorates the 50th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, and 100 percent of the purchase price on each piece sold will be donated to the National Network of Abortion Funds.
Nécessaire
Nécessaire, which makes Strat beauty columnist Rio Viera Newton’s beloved eczema-friendly body wash and our favorite natural body lotion for dry skin, has launched a rich body cream to save your flaking winter legs. Like all the brand’s excellent products, it’s fragrance free and pH balanced, making it ideal for sensitive skin in need of TLC.
Jansport adaptive collection
Designed following years of consultation with disabled high-school and college students, Jansport’s clever new collection of adaptive backpacks and pouches can strap and clip onto all styles of wheelchair and mobility devices.
Kelly Clarkson x Jonas Brothers
Did you know that the Jonas Brothers (with help from family friend Rob Garbowsky) have their own flavored-popcorn brand? It’s apparently delicious, at least according to Kelly Clarkson, who became addicted after the brothers appeared on her talk show and gifted her a bag of the stuff. Now the singer has partnered with Kevin, Nick, and Joe to create her own smokey barbecue flavor that’s inspired by her Texas roots. Munch away while rewatching your favorite Kellyoke clips.
Quince maternity collection
One of our DTC go-tos Quince (known for its affordable cashmere sweaters, washable silk slip skirts, and “cool and cozy” linen bedsheets) has launched a maternity range made from supersoft tencel. Flowy and comfortable, the affordable pieces (like this V-neck ’90s-style button-down dress) are already being restocked.
Omsom x DAWANG
Cool Lunar New Year collabs keep on coming, the latest being this open-back ’00s-style top (that’s designed for both “rowdy nights on the town and late-night munchies on the couch”) from Asian home-cooking brand Omsom and Asian-woman-run, New York–based streetwear brand DAWANG. The stunning royal-purple colorway is designed to stand out amid a sea of red Lunar New Year decorations.
Polaroid x David Bowie
We suspect that the Venn diagram of Polaroid users and David Bowie fans is just one big circle, so it makes sense that the heritage camera brand has collaborated with the musician’s estate on this limited-edition, Starman-inspired film. Featuring ten unique designs, it’s compatible with Polaroid’s newer i-Type cameras.
MoMA x Hellerware
Speaking of the ’70s, Massimo Vignelli’s wonderfully indestructible, rainbow-brite plastic dinnerware has been revived by MoMA design store. Pick up a set of these stacking bowls before they sell out, and tell friends that you thrifted them.
Meals x Lisa Says Gah
Existing at the exciting intersection of farmer’s market and streetwear are these kale-colored pants from Meals, exclusive to Lisa Says Gah. The X/XL size looks just about to sell out, but there are still a few pairs left for when the stalls reopen this spring. (And while we have you: Lisa Says Gah is taking up to 30 percent off all dresses, including already-on-sale styles, as part of its flash sale today. This checkered maxi is a particularly good deal.)
The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Some of our latest conquests include the best acne treatments, rolling luggage, pillows for side sleepers, natural anxiety remedies, and bath towels.
