For this week’s Don’t Dillydally, we’ve rounded up a range of newly released products we’re particularly excited about, including LEGO’s first-ever Pokémon sets, J.Crew après-ski, andKPop Demon Huntersvalentine cards.
J.Crewis the official lifestyle-apparel partner of the U.S. Ski and Snowboard team for the 2026 Winter Olympics. Its limited-edition collection, marketed as clothing for après-ski and beyond, is very good. There aresweatpants,socks,beanies,sweaters, andski jacketsfor adults, plus a more limited collection for kids. My favorite thing by far is thewool roll neckwith a big mountain knit into the lower half. But I also love the less overtly patrioticrugby shirtandpullover anorak. Many items are currently close to selling out, but J.Crew has announced that a restock will be available for preorder starting tomorrow, January 15, at 9 a.m. ET — so this is a true don’t-dillydally moment.
There are plenty of Pokémon building toys out there, many of which look like LEGOs but come from other brands. Now the legendary toy-maker has launched its first collection ofofficialPokémon LEGO sets featuring a bushy-tailedEevee,Pikachurunning from a Pokéball, and a three-figure display piece featuringVenusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise. The first two are available for preorder now and expected to ship in late February. The third is not yet available to purchase but coming soon.

I audibly gasped when I watched a video of this Silver Cross stroller being folded with theadd-on bassinetstill attached. As far as I know, every other true stroller bassinet from every other brand has to be removed from the stroller before you can fold the frame. It’s just a fact of life that by the time your kid can walk, all the baby gear on the market will have gotten much better, but more than most, this is one product I really, really would have loved when my (now 3-year-old) son was a newborn.

I am not abathrobeperson, but I might soon become a towel-poncho person. Quiet Town’s striped winter poncho is made from the same material as its heavyweight bath towels and comes in two color palettes: olive and Kelly green or dark pink and periwinkle. I don’t have a sauna or a hot tub at home, but if I did, I would always put this on after getting out. I also think it would be cozy to wear around the house after a regular shower.

I appreciate when skin-care products show before-and-after photos from studies the companies have done with real people. Will I have the same results after using the product for the same amount of time? I don’t know. But I want to believe, and thephotos for Soko Glam’s new eye creamcaught my attention. The formula contains snail mucin and caffeine, plus the K-beauty brand’s plant-based plumper called Volufiline, to hydrate, smooth fine lines, and reduce puffiness.

Since weaning my son from breastfeeding, my boobs are smaller than ever, and mostsports bras, though comfortable, smoosh me completely flat. So I’m interested in Pepper’s new Leisure collection, which includes a sports-ish bra it says is both wireless and “anti-gravity.” I also like that the bra and a pair of matching leggings are currently available in a limited-edition vibrant cherry red.

It feels like we have finally made it to the point where officialKpop Demon Huntersmerch is widely available. Don’t let that instill a false sense of security, though; theseValentine’s Daycards for kids will most likely sell out before February 14.
Alex Mill Striped Roll-neck Sweaters
Alex Mill makes many excellent sweaters, including roll-neck styles, but this is the first time the brand has made roll-neck sweaters with stripes. I run hot, so I also love that these are cotton rather than wool.

People never get tired of Realtree camo, even people with no connection to the outdoors or hunting culture. I’m not 100 percent convinced by the bags inHerschel’s new Realtree collection, but I would buy the raincoats, especially thelong duster-style women’s onethat seems to be on the brink of selling out already.
Not everything in this Goody x Lee collection is an obvious winner, but there are a few extremely sweet pieces, like a set of twoscallop-edged indigo hair bows, arailroad-striped hair brush, and an oversizedenim eyelet scrunchie.

Now you can getClairo’s favorite long-sleeve T-shirtin two new colors: chocolate brown and sky blue. I’m betting the brown sells out first.
