For this week’s “Don’t Dillydally,” we’ve rounded up a range of newly released products we’re particularly excited about, including Alex Mill’s spring collection, bloomers-inspired Tulip shades, and aKPop Demon HuntersAmerican Girl doll.
Alex Mill Spring Collection
Last week, we mentioned that Alex Mill released a crop of nice-looking cotton roll-neck sweaters. That turned out to be a teaser — this week, the brand released the spring collection. There’s lots to look at: French workwear-looking jackets in springtime shades, the return of the jumpsuit, cotton-poplin shirts in almost every color you can think of, and a few striped options, too. Personally, I’m interested in the Taylor Cardigan, a buttoned-take on the roll-neck, which comes in lots of colors and is made from a warm-but-not-stifling cotton-cashmere.
Tulip Bloomers Collection

Tulip Gem Pleats
Tulip makes covers for ugly light fixtures — an easy, renter-friendly upgrade to the landlord-special boob light. The brand’s latest collection is inspired by bloomers and riffs on two of the brand’s existing silhouettes: Lamp and Gem. Of the three new designs, Gem Pleats is the most versatile, offering architectural interest without having to hardwire a light fixture.
Morris & Co. x Zara Home
Zara has collaborated with Morris & Co., a heritage English textile company founded in the 1800s by designer William Morris. The brand is known for its florals, which translates to the collection, albeit muted to fit Zara’s neutral palette. There’s lots of bedding options in this vein along with some nice-looking striped patterns on pillowcases, sheets, and duvets.
KPop Demon Huntersx American Girl Doll
American Girl andKPop Demon Huntershave collaborated on doll versions of the trio. Each doll wears its character’s signature outfit and comes with an accessory and charm. They’re currently available for preorder (shipping by late November). While that’s a while away, I wouldn’t let the long lead time deter you — these will likely be very hard to get by then.
L.L.Bean Tall Small Boat and Tote

The iconic Boat and Tote, a favorite of Strategist staffers, now comes in a new silhouette. This one is small-size but taller and has long handles that easily drape over the shoulder — perfect for books, small water bottles, and everyday essentials. One thing to note: It’s available to order but won’t ship until March 31.
The Met x Pamela Love

Jewelry designer Pamela Love has created a jewelry collection for the Met inspired by its Egyptian-art collection. Each piece features a classic Egyptian motif. This necklace, for example, uses the fly, a symbol of persistence.

Laneige’s latest offering to lips is part lip oil, part stain. It’s hydrating, thanks to the oil-and-water blend, and contains ceramides and peptides, which help to support the skin. There’s a nice range of shades, all of which are buildable and last up to 12 hours.
Verb Curl Oil

Verb, which makes our favorite hair oil, Ghost Oil, has released a formula specifically for curls. Curl Oil is formulated with a blend of sweet almond, argan oil, and castor oil and helps to hydrate and define curls.
Starface Tiny Star

New! You can now save this product for later.
Starface now makes very tiny stars. These are more fun than function owing to the size, but they work the same as the bigger version and are incredibly cute.
Vacation Orange Gelée Air Freshener

Now your car or room can smell like Vacation’s Orange Gelée products. The brand recently released an air freshener of the scent, which has notes of bergamot, clove, saffron, patchouli, and sandalwood.
