New Stuff Alert: Laura Ashley Has Landed at H&M
For this week’s Don’t Dillydally, we’ve rounded up a range of newly released products we’re particularly excited about, including pillows and pillow charms designed by Julio Torres, Laura Ashley x H&M, a budget-friendly lightweight stroller, and Maison de Sabré’s customizable leather bags.

There’s been a lot of nostalgia-fueled chatter about this collaboration in the Strategist parents’ Slack. While I was around for the original Laura Ashley boom in the ’90s, I wasn’t lucky enough to own any of the clothes or frilly bedding. Some of my colleagues were, and I am retroactively jealous of them. My favorite pieces from this collection are the ones I would have given anything to wear or carry back in second and third grade.

Cute kids’ sneakers are like catnip to me at the moment because my 3-year-old son just grew out of his regular pair. There are so many adorable options available at the moment, but this striped collaboration between Tiny Cottons and Victoria is beating out the rest for my brain space today. Tiny Cottons excels at designing durable and fun gender-neutral clothing and these, while pricey, fit right into that mold. Blessedly there are also a few sizes of the same striped sneakers for adults.
The last thing I expected to see this spring was a Julio Torres furniture collaboration that features a funky daybed, a wooden side table with random objects artfully inlaid on top, a privacy screen inspired by the arrivals curtain at JFK Terminal 4, grommet-cornered throw pillows, and accompanying metal charms.

If my dad didn’t already have a huge stash of unused Field Notes notebooks, I would be buying this set of six for him for Father’s Day. But they’re a great gift for anyone who’s into visiting national parks or just appreciates good illustration and design.

Little by little, Buck Mason has been infusing its women’s line with casual sex appeal. This dress and the coordinating T-shirt are part of that evolution. The pieces are inspired by mesh fabrics that were used in military clothing from the 1940s, updated to hug the curves of the body.

Maison de Sabré had already been selling high-end leather bag charms for years when the bag-charm trend blew up. Now it’s launched a collection of customizable leather handbags that lets you mix and match your charms, straps, and handles. There are hundreds of combos to choose from in a bunch of poppy colors.

I got a chance to push, fold, and unfold this stroller at a recent Chicco preview and was impressed by its smooth wheels and easy one-handed recline. These features, along with a sizable storage basket and included bumper bar, are especially surprising considering the stroller’s sub-$150 price tag. And it comes in three stylish colors: Oat, Jam, and Olive.

I already use Pipette sunscreen and bodywash for my son, and I plan on adding this jumbo version of the mineral sunscreen to my kitchen counter to make morning applications harder to forget.
Ruggable x Dan Pelosi
This is hardly the first Ruggable collaboration, but cookbook author Dan Pelosi seems to have cracked the code like no other. The patterns are bright and happy, and there’s even a tomato with eyes.
