The top 10-faves from one of our editors

Everything Allison is loving right now!

Hi, I'm Allison!   I'm an SEO Writer here, and I joined the Market team about three months ago. I had no idea that I would foray into the shopping world for my first job in digital media, but I am so grateful and excited to be here! I especially love how I can weave my love for culture and identity into my work with products— because, after all, whether we like it or not, what we buy influences every facet of who we are. And I think that's super cool!     Photos: Allison Jiang In my spare time, you can catch me watching gritty female-antihero-led dramas (most recently: I May Destroy You), eating noodles, and otherwise snacking my way around Williamsburg, where I live— but I'll always be a Jersey girl at heart. Check out my website to read some of my original writing, and follow me on Twitter for (occasionally) spicy takes. Hope you enjoy my picks!    Hope you enjoy my picks!

It's perfect for days when I don't feel like lugging around a tote bag, and just need something I can just throw my wallet and keys into and be out the door. It's functional, cute as hell, and surprisingly spacious, and honestly even if my outfit is meh, wearing this purse automatically makes it seem like I have my life together, for which I am grateful. It's currently sold out, but this denim tote is still in stock!  Hallabong Scented Candle — $16   I've been loving this Korean citrus-scented candle from OhJoha Candles on Etsy. The shop sells hand-poured candles inspired by the smells of Korea, and I was so tempted to buy all the scents, like soju, sheet mask, and Dalgona coffee. It's clear that the shop's owner is respectful and appreciative of Korean culture, and the candle is well-made and smells amazing. Would make an awesome gift!  "The Danse" Sticker — $4   I've only been in NYC for two months, and making my new apartment feel like home can be a struggle. This sticker I got from Chop Suey Club has made my workspace so much more lively and it feels like a little piece of me is always in the room! Chop Suey Club is a marketplace for independent Chinese designers, and their website is an absolute treasure trove of quirky, beautiful items that I have to physically stop myself from buying. Milky Lip Jelly — $14   I've never been much of a lip gloss person, but as we all know, post-Covid identity crisis is a real thing, and these Milky Lip Jellies from Tower 28 (an Asian-woman owned business!) are my latest crutch. They're so hydrating, and don't feel like a gloopy mess on my lips even on the hottest of summer days, which is a win in my book. Tower 28 products are vegan and non-comedogenic too, for anyone with sensitive skin! ON MY WISHLIST These scrunchies I saw on TikTok that you can put! Stuff! In! This wavy mirror that comes with a pen you can write on it with. These retro vases that might just motivate me to keep a plant alive for the first time in my life. These Omsom flavor starters to save me money on ingredients for my Asian food cravings. A picnic rug from The Somewhere Co. because I always want to be prepared for a picnic. These red envelope earrings from an Asian-owned small Etsy shop that encapsulates my aesthetic to a T.   More From BuzzFeed Shopping 27 Accessories Under $10 That'll Help Make Your Outfit Insta-Ready 18 Plants To Make Your Space Bloom 28 Family-Owned Small Businesses With Cool Products You'll Love 34 Pieces That Can Make The Transition From Spring To Summer To Fall Hot Topic Is Having A 30% Off Sale, So Make Some Room In Your T-Shirt Drawer ASAP 36 Things That'll Prevent You From Saying "Sorry For The Mess" Ever Again View our privacy notice and cookie policy.     BuzzFeed, Inc. 111 E. 18th St. New York, NY 10003   We hope you love the products we recommend!
