My Favorite Small Businesses
For all my US readers, I know this election has been one of the most draining experiences. Now, it’s done and Joe Biden will be our next President! The amount of relief we’re feeling is incredible and because of that major serotonin release, you might want to shop a bit online, I know I have. Enjoy some of these amazing small businesses, I’m obsessed with all of them!
Eroda Gift Shop on Etsy
If you’re a Harry Styles fan like me, you’ll definitely want to check this shop out. I bought the gray Beachwood Cafe sweatshirt and have worn it nonstop since I got it! Plus the merch is so cute, when you meet Harry Styles at a coffee shop while reading a book of poetry pretending you don’t know who he is, and you’re wearing this sweatshirt, he won’t know you’re a crazy fan with screenshots of him on your phone. He’ll still think you’re his new mysterious “it” girl.

Molly Stitches Shop on Etsy and IG
Molly is probably the sweetest person you’ll ever meet and her work, linked here, is STUNNING. All 4 hoops in the photo I’ve bought from her and I love the way they look in my room. It’s inspired me to start making them, but they’re not very good so I buy from Molly who has actual talent. These hoops are amazing and I love looking at them everyday.

Emi Jay
I found this shop, linked here, on Instagram a few months ago and quickly bought 2 of their “Big Effing Clips,” a comb, and 2 butterfly clips. I am in LOVE with these and plan on buying so many more. They’re definitely worth the investment and work better than any other hair clip I’ve owned!

Picnic Wear
This shop is absolutely amazing. Everything is made by hand in NYC from vintage and deadstock materials making each piece ethically produced slow fashion. Highly recommend checking out their shop linked here.

The following shops were recommended by one of my favorite people, Sophia Isacco. From the moment I met her, Sophia has been a constant light of warmth and integrity in even the most daunting circumstances. She is one of the most creative and driven people I’ve ever known. Her artistry, intellect, and compassion constantly inspire me. She continually lights up every room she walks into with kindness, humor, and a welcoming spirit. In that light of conscious consideration for others, I consulted her expertise on all things small business. Thank you so much for the recommendations Sophia!
