This New Bedding Collab Makes Your Home Feel Like a Hotel

We already like Big Night, a dinner party shop in New York City that sells everything you need—from tinned fish to colorful cocktail glasses—for a stylish and flavor-filled night in with friends. And now, the store has diverted our attention from the dining room and into the bedroom, where they’ve just debuted a cheery bedding collection with Far West, the design group behind hip hotels like Hotel St. Vincent in New Orleans and El Cosmico in Marfa, TX.

If a whole world of stripes in one room isn’t your thing, each piece can be easily mixed and matched with your existing decor. We like the idea of pairing the duvet with a buttery yellow pillow or sky blue top sheet. Or, grab a set of the striped pillow cases and put them up against crisp white bedding, which looks good with everything—maybe that’s why it’s so popular at hotels, hint, hint. See the entire collection here.

True to its name, Fits-anywhere offers countertop essentials—like a 4-quart air fryer, waffle maker, two-slice toaster, and foldable griddle—that could flourish in even the smallest of kitchens. The products’ size and storage features (like standing vertically) enable them to save, per Bella, “50% more space.” (Although it’s unclear where exactly that size comparison is drawn).

The Bin That Saved My Laundry Routine

We’ve teamed up with our friends at Steele Canvas—makers of durable, high-quality canvas baskets—to tackle all things laundry. Here, we’re highlighting one of our editor’s favorite products: The Canvas Elevated Truck.

Until recently, my laundry bin …

Until recently, my laundry bin was nothing more than a perforated garbage can. A lifeless shade of white plastic, it was the first thing I’d stuff in the closet whenever someone visited my room. Its holes weren’t doing me any favors either: Every morning I’d awake to a front-row view of smelly socks and mustard-stained shirts. And of course, because the bin was so small, it only took a few days’ worth of laundry before a new, record-breaking, clothes-based mountain emerged in the corner of my room. To escape laundry-bin rock bottom, I knew I needed nothing short of a miracle.
