The Shark SpeedStyle Pro Flex cuts down drying time. (SharkNinja)
“My Dyson Airwrap recently died, so I’ve been on the hunt for a replacement. After borrowing a friend’s Shark SpeedStyle, I decided to buy my own. The attachments are similar and the $150 price tag is hard to beat.” — Caitlyn Martyn, Commerce Editor

These Mary Jane flats have a buckle strap and cushioned leather for all-day comfort. (Shopbop)
“I’d been searching for a pair of flats that felt both summery and polished. These Madewell flats are comfortable enough to wear all day at work, and I can easily walk to and from the office in them. They pair just as well with jeans as they do with dresses, and they’ve quickly become a staple in my closet.” — Jaclyn Kaufman, Associate Production Editor

Boar bristles gently detangle and boost shine. (Nordstrom)
“I purchased this brush during the Nordstrom sale as a recommendation from a friend. It’s great for thick hair. I love the shape of the handle — it’s comfortable to hold. The brush does a great job of distributing oil from root to tip.” — Brianna DiCamillo, Commerce Analytics Manager

“I normally work remotely from California, but I’m visiting the New York office this week. The team told me how cold the office was, so I picked up this cardigan to have at my desk. I was surprised by the nice fit and the color is beautiful.” — Jenny Op’t Holt, VP of Commerce Partnerships

These cargo shorts have an elastic waist and plenty of pockets. (Kohl’s)
“The 40% discount is really what won me over, but I also needed to stock up on new shorts. I appreciate the deep side pockets and additional cargo pockets. They fit everything from tools to a full-sized book! Plus, I’ve worn them on 90-degree days and they don’t trap heat like other shorts.” — Christopher Murray, Commerce Writer
Original price: $150

A memory foam footbed and durable leather make these sandals a smart summer buy. (G.H. Bass)
“I’ve been on the hunt for a pair of classic men’s leather slides for vacation and this one is comfortable, stylish and on sale.” — Moriba Cummings, Director of Commerce Content

Life jackets aren’t just for humans. (Amazon)
“My family is taking a trip to Palm Springs and my dog enjoys going down the water slide with the kids. However, he isn’t the best swimmer. This life jacket allows us to relax and enjoy the trip, instead of always being on guard and possibly having to jump in the pool to save him at any given moment.” — Kevin Shaifer, Director of Commerce Partnerships

These mini hair clips create effortless hairstyles in seconds. (Amazon)
“I wanted to try more half-up, half-down hairstyles, but with my fine, wavy hair, larger clips never gave me the precision I was looking for. These mini clips make it easy to pin back small sections for more intricate twists. They go with everything and add an elegant finishing touch.” — Nusrat Sultana, Commerce Editor
