This week’s roundup of new releases/collaborations/what-have-you’s worth snapping up now includes some traffic-stopping Birkenstocks, a way-more-expensive-than-it-looks bathing suit, and a very unlikely collaboration with the U.S. Postal Service.
Forever 21 x USPS
This totally bizarre (but also totally amazing) collaboration between Forever 21 and the U.S. Postal Service is selling out fast. There are only size smalls left of this sweatshirt. Good job getting the kids excited about mail, Forever 21!
Birkenstock x Opening Ceremony
Our colleagues at the Cut tipped us off to this (very on-trend) neon collaboration between Birkenstock and Opening Ceremony.
Reese Witherspoon x Elizabeth Arden
Another one we learned about from the Cut: Reese Witherspoon teamed up with Elizabeth Arden on an Elle Woods-y pink lipstick, and 100 percent of the proceeds from its sales will go to Elizabeth Arden’s March On campaign, supporting U.N. Women’s Making Every Woman and Girl Count initiative. Doesn’t hurt that “it goes on smoothly and should keep lips hydrated all day.”
A More-Expensive-Than-It-Looks H&M Swimsuit
We’ve learned recently that things really sell out quickly at H&M, and this brand-new scalloped one-piece is already going fast. (Probably because it’s only 30 bucks.)
Warby Parker x Amanda de Cadanet Reissue
Warby Parker just reissued the glasses from its popular 2017 collaboration with Amanda de Cadanet. There’s a black-framed version, too.
Amazon’s New Private-Label Beauty Line
With not too much fanfare, Amazon launched its long-awaited, relatively inexpensive private-label beauty line, Belei, the other day. While it’s too early to tell if the stuff really works, people seem to be liking the spot treatment, the micellar face wipes, and the hyaluronic acid serum.
Mejuri’s (Restocked) Jewelry Travel Case
Mejuri’s formerly sold-out jewelry carrying case is back — and available for preorder.
Everlane’s ReNew Anorak
The latest addition to Everlane’s ReNew collection (clothes made from 100-percent recycled fabric) is this handsome, lightweight, water-resistant anorak that couldn’t be more perfect for spring.
Raf Simons x Kvadrat x Bang & Olufsen
There’s a lot going on in this collaboration (between textile company Kvadrat, Raf Simons, and Bang & Olufsen), but from what we can gather, Raf Simons and Kvadrat teamed up on a sweet little knit pouch for your headphones. Considering that it’s Raf, and 60 bucks, this will likely sell out. (There’s a pouch for larger headphones available, too.)
Brooklinen’s New Towel
This will likely not sell out in the near future, but thought we’d note that Brooklinen introduced a very pleasing cream-colored bath towel to its “super-plush bath towel” collection.
