If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your bath, beach or pool towels, now is absolutely the time. Made from 100% ring-spun cotton, this Linens & Hutch set offers superior softness and absorbency. Post is a big fan of their classic stripe print and large size, which she says gives them their elevated quality.

Tarte
Did you know that you should be replacing your eyeshadows every six months? If you didn’t, it may be time for a beauty refresh, and we found the perfect shades to transition your makeup look from summer to fall. Tarte’s iconic Tartelette in Bloom palette features both matte and shimmer shadows in neutral colors that practically scream “I’m so ready for autumn.” They’re also formulated from Amazonian clay, which the brand says makes each color long-lasting and great for all-day wear. Don’t miss out on our exclusive deal to grab it for 50% off through August 15.
As much as we love a palette, they aren’t exactly ideal for travel or on-the-go touchups. These two-sided sticks offer the perfect solution, doubling as eyeliners to help you create any look in less than a minute. Glide the shadow along the lid and use the attached smudge brush for a seamless blend, then go about your day knowing its waterproof formula will stay put all day long. Grab one for just $13 when you use code TODAY at checkout through August 15.
Lands' End
We all know how important a good BAB can be — a practical bag that can hold all your must-have items and look stylish at the same time is key to surviving a packed schedule. If we know one brand that will deliver on that front, it's Lands' End. You can't go wrong with its classic canvas tote, which Post refers to as a "total workhorse." It's designed to hold up to 250 pounds (yes, you read that correctly) and can stand upright to prevent spills. Plus, its five pockets and zip-top design make it easy to organize your items and keep them secure. Grab one for 40% off when you use the code TODAY through August 15.
Looking for a more travel-friendly design? The brand's multiway pocket tote is one you'll want to keep your eye on for multiple reasons. The first is that you can wear it three ways — over the shoulder, as a crossbody or by the handle — and it's easily adjustable. Second, it has a back pocket that can transform into a trolley sleeve for attaching to luggage. Talk about functionality! Use code TODAY to score 40% off this style through August 15.
Traveling somewhere rainy, snowy or somewhere in between? Skip the canvas style and try this puffer tote, which is designed with a water-resistant quilted shell to help keep your belongings dry. It's also made to feel incredibly lightweight and easily packable — seriously, it can actually fold into its own zippered pocket. Plus, we love how many colors are available! Our exclusive code (TODAY) works on style too, so you can get one for 40% off through August 15.
Post loves a space-saver, especially in the kitchen, which is why she's a big fan of these stackable dishes. This 12-piece glassware set offers an easy way to transition into going plastic-free. They're the only containers you'll need since they can use them in six ways: steaming, microwaving, freezing, baking, storing and cooking frozen food. Best of all, they're nontoxic, can handle temperatures up to 500 degrees and is dishwasher safe. Every bowl comes with a silicone lid, which promises an airtight and leakproof fit. Grab the entire set (in blue or black) for 40% off when you use the code TODAY through August 15.
Wide-leg pants are so in right now, and NYDJ has a ton of jean and trouser styles you'll want to carry into fall, eventually pairing with all your favorite knits and sweaters. "These are so flatting for all body types," says Post, adding that she loves the silhouette "because it elongates the legs, defines the waist and gives great proportion." Not to mention, how comfortable they are! Post says they offer the perfect amount of stretch and come in two lengths to provide your perfect fit. Stock up on any style in the Mona Collection and save 40% off with code TODAY through August 15.
