The best claw clip of all time

Plus everything else Rachel is loving right now!

Hi, I'm Rachel! I'm the BuzzFeed Shopping team's Product Review Manager, which in non-work life just means I'm an excellent gift giver! I love hiking and backpacking, knitting, long directionless walks, and forcing people to play board games with me     Photos: Rachel Dunkel Once it's safe to do so again, I look forward to shirking absolutely all of my responsibilities to go dancing with my friends 24/7. What can I say? I live in Detroit! The American birthplace of techno! It would be irresponsible of me NOT to go dancing every night once we're all vaccinated.   Hope you enjoy my picks!

Subscribe Now WHAT I'M LOVING NOW Dripping Nectar Concoction 15 Perfume from Lavender Clouds and Poetry — $29+     I could not be more impressed with this perfume from Lavender Clouds and Poetry, a Black woman–owned small business whose fragrance quality and ~aesthetic~ are top-notch. I've been lucky enough to try a few scents, but Dripping Nectar is my current favorite. It's fresh with a hint of sweetness — perfect for spring. I've had a problem lately with perfume giving me a headache, but not this perfume! The packaging is beautiful and the bottle feels luxury-quality. What are we waiting for, let's make Lavender Clouds and Poetry a household name! Candy Stripe Large Hair Claw from Chunks — $16.50 My coworker Melanie Aman wrote a review of some clips from Chunks and I instantly knew I needed to have one (the brand's excellent name did also contribute to this decision, I can't lie). I'm growing my hair out from a bob and have finally been able to return to putting it up in a claw, the only '90s trend I'm really putting my weight behind. My sad, weak, boring go-to claw I got from a drug store recently snapped in half when I smushed all of my hair into it — traumatic! But this large claw from Chunks is SO strong, I have no fear of breaking it. It's the perfect size for my shoulder-length medium-thick hair, but I know I'll be able to keep wearing it as my hair grows. I also simply want everything I put on my body to be in a loud print, so this fits the bill! Box Top Sewing Pattern and Hacking Guide from All Well Workshop — $14 I recently started learning how to sew and this All Well Workshop box top pattern has been my ultimate guide. Yes, I've made a top from it, but with the pattern's four base garments, the included "hacking guide," and incredibly thorough and helpful instructions, I was able to make this slightly ruffled two-tone dress! I never in my life thought I would be able to make clothing — especially fun, creative clothing I was actually interested in wearing! — but All Well showed me the way. Whether you're new to the craft or are an experienced sewist, these patterns are a great investment — I've already made three garments from this one and have plans for many more! "It's Always Something" Art Print from Just Okay Co. — $22 I got this lil' poster (and a hat and a pin) from Just Okay Co. recently because......it IS always something! This Orlando, FL–based small biz is actually owned by an old friend of mine (hi, Matt!) and I am endlessly impressed by the quality, wit, and plain fun in these products. Having this sunny print in my office is a wonderful reminder that life is absurd and ya just gotta keep wigglin' through it saying "Ain't that the way!" The Just Okay Co. TikTok account is also poppin'!  ON MY WISHLIST A linen bedding bundle from my absolute favorite linens company. An enamel pin of the most important character ever committed to film. Some sweet shades from a small accessories biz I adore. Some objectively-ugly-but-in-that-way-very-cool Danskos to add to my collection. A restock of my favorite canned mixers. An ultralight three-person backpacking tent I've had my eye on for over a year. Some handcrafted light fixtures to give my house's 2000s-era lighting a serious upgrade.   More From BuzzFeed Shopping 31 Products That Helped People Do Things They've Never Done Before 25 Spring-Related Products Reviewers Say Are A Complete 10/10 25 Cute Dresses That Totally Double As Loungewear If Your Level Of Effort Is A Messy Top Knot, Here Are 34 Beauty Products To Try 30 Things That'll Make Daily Tasks Feel A Little (Or A Lot) Easier 31 Stylish Pieces From Target That Won't Make You Splurge On Trends 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!
