Our Last Group Chat Thread of 2025: NYE Recs, Espresso, and Fur Coats |
And just like that, it's officially the last day of 2025. Whether this year was 100 percent your favorite or not, if you're reading this newsletter, it's worth telling yourself congratulations. Living through each day is such an underrated blessing, much less another 365. Of course, we've basked in the pleasure of being your go-to shopping besties throughout this year, and are planning even more innovative and fresh content for you to enjoy in 2026. For one last Shop the Group Chat before the clock strikes 12, our team gathered their favorite products of the year, as well as some must haves to inspire your New Years Eve looks . . . because you are going out, right?! Anyway, get into our specially curated list, from the LBD shopping director Sarah Wasilak is wearing tonight — selected by her fiancé — to the espresso machine shopping editor Haley Lyndes uses every day. Oh, and of course, the perfume assistant shopping editor Naomi Parris is wearing tonight. |

Zara Puffball Mini Dress ($119) "I'm spending New Year's Eve in the Hamptons this year (what? Who am I? What does that say about me?) and I want to rock a special dress. Since 2026 is the year I'm getting married, I let my fiancé choose my look — I figured that'd be good luck — and he went with this dress. Not only do I love that it nods to a 2025 trend with the bubble hem, the hardware at the chest is a unique shape, like the wavy setting of my engagement ring, so I'm fully committed. I'll probably wear it with kitten heels and my favorite Commando Sparkle Rib Semi Opaque Tights [$64]." — Sarah Wasilak |

| Mugler Angel Eau de Parfum ($150) "Although this was an extremely hard decision, Mugler's Angel perfume is one of my favorite scents of the year. It's truly the epitome of luxe — thanks to its long-lasting patchouli and bergamot scent. If you want to constantly hear 'you smell good,' this scent is the one." — Naomi Parris |

Dolce Glow Self-Tanning Mist ($49) "On New Year's Eve, the only thing I need to feel dressed up is a good tan, which is obviously not happening naturally on the East Coast in winter. I've tried just about every self-tanner at this point, and most of them are . . . not great. The one I genuinely love is the Dolce mist. I use it on my face and body — it's foolproof, looks natural, and lasts for days. It instantly makes any outfit look better — including the one you wear on NYE." — Haley Lyndes |

| Omnilux Contour Face Mask ($356, originally $395) "The year 2025 was hands down the year I became most diligent about skin care, and I've noticed the most significant improvement from my Omnilux Face Mask, which I've been consistent about using every single night for at least two sessions. For women who love to multitask (aka most women, amirite?), it's just so easy to fold the laundry, catch up on my favorite show, or even scroll on my phone while investing in a little skin rejuvenation. As I get older, I'm definitely more in tune to fine lines and my complexion in general, so this would have to be my hero product." — SW |

Naked Wardrobe Faux Fur Plush Long Coat ($395) "If there's any coat that I had to choose to wear for the rest of my life, it'd be this one from Naked Wardrobe. I'm sure you can see why (I mean just look at it), but it's made with Mongolian faux fur, making it just as warm as it looks. From date nights to work appointments, the compliments are nonstop. A coat that truly makes me feel like that girl. Oh, and yes, I'm wearing it on NYE." — NP |

| Breville Bambino Plus Espresso Machine ($500) "My Breville espresso machine has quietly become one of the most used items in my kitchen this past year. It's made busy mornings feel easier and has saved me countless coffee runs, which slightly justifies the price. It's incredibly easy to use and makes a perfect frothy milk every time. It's one of those purchases that proves its worth every single day." — HL |
