Hats off to this bonnet!!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Best bonnet ever! Cute, comfy, practical and good quality. I had this very same one six years ago. When it wore down I replaced it with the same one. My other bonnets had straps that dangled awkwardly on my forehead. This one has a seamless strap and it adjusts well. And not once has it fallen off my head in the middle of the night.

Amazon
I bought this in anticipation of fall and LOVE the fabric and the waistband — it's thin and well-structured enough that it's phenomenally easy to pair with crop tops and regularly-hemmed tops alike. I am especially eager to start pairing it with chunky sweaters when the weather cools down. I'm 5'4" and would only feel comfortable wearing this with a biiiit of a heel, so if you're on the shorter side, you may want to get it hemmed!
Get it from Amazon for $30.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 19 styles).
12. An oh-so-sweet hummingbird lamp with three brightness levels and a touch sensor that reviewers love using as a reading light, a wind-down light, or a nursery light. Bonus: it also functions as an aroma diffuser if you add 3–4 drops of essential oil to the top of its head.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I literally have no idea why I bought this. It was a suggested item and looked interesting so I was like 'lol okay.' I can't believe how much I like it LOL.

Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
13. A set of delightfully versatile colorful mixing bowls you can get in all kinds of styles as an investment in all your baking, cooking, and cuteness needs for years to come. Bonus: these nest for easy storage, have spouts for easy ingredient transfer, *plus* they're dishwasher safe!
Amazon, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I love these mixing bowls. The packaging is very beautiful. The bonus for me is the black rings in the bottom to prevent the bowls from sliding around on the counter when you're mixing/whisking. I bought them to make pancakes, but I use them for everything now. The set is a nice upgrade from using a regular soup bowl for mixing." — Sarita
Get the set of four from Amazon for $21.99 (available in 14 styles).
14. A chic shoulder bag that fans of Bottega Veneta will love as an affordable alternative to the $$$ name brand version. This is the perfect size for quick errands or a night out, both because it's versatile to go with juuuust about anything and boasts a surprising amount of space.

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in six styles).
15. A pair of ~dreamlux~ leggings made with an oh-so-buttery soft material reviewers compare to Lululemon's Align ... but WAY cheaper. If you're looking for a reliably squatproof, comfy, compressive legging, look no further than these.
Amazon
Promising review:"Super comfy. I usually don't write reviews, I t ried this first before buying Lulu and these are the most comfortable leggings for everyday and even for workout. Highly recommended!" — Criselle Johnson

Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in six styles and a two-pack).
17. A set of colorful-striped cotton dishrags to add a pop of cheerful whimsy to your kitchen space, even on days when cleaning is the last thing on your mind. Now you can pop on a happy playlist and get the job done faster than ever — reviewers are in love with how ultra-absorbent, durable, and soft these are.
Amazon
Promising review: "I really like these washcloths! They are durable, absorbent, rinse out well, and do the job of cleaning dishes and counters. The colors and pattern is very fun! I like that the pattern is darker and striped, so when I clean up coffee stains or other darker stains, the washcloth doesn't show any stains. They rinse out well and do not smell mildew like other washcloths I've used. These are fantastic and I'm so glad I found them!" — carol Z
Get a set of eight from Amazon for $13.69 (available in five styles).
18. A classic herringbone necklace so close in style to the Tiffany HardWear version that you might blink and mistake it for the real thing (imagine being able to drop 13,000 human dollars on a necklace though, MY STARS).
Amazon
Promising review: "I've been thinking about purchasing the Tiffany version of this necklace, but when I saw this one, I decided to purchase it. So glad I did. It is beautiful and very substantial. When I first put it on, couldn't believe the weight, in a good way. Feels and looks expensive, and the color of the gold is perfect, in my opinion; not too yellow or orangey. Love, love, love this necklace!!!" — FAXA10
Get it from Amazon for $20.99 (available in six styles).
19. A set of pink-accented glass food prep containers, because if you're going to be all organized and financially responsible with your ~meal prep goals~, you deserve to get to do it as cutely and functionally as possible. These not only have leakproof, easy-to-snap lids, but the containers are microwave, freezer, dishwasher, AND oven safe.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Ditch the plastic containers. These are FANTASTIC. I LOVE how the lids snap onto the container to keep food fresh and smells out! I now have three sets of these because I freeze foods as well, and they work great." — Mary W.
Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $32.99 (available in four styles).

www.amazon.com, Amazon
Check out a TikTok of the cheese slicer in action.
Promising review:"My mother-in-law had purchased one last year and I tried hers at Christmas and fell in love with how easy it was to use. We have a lot of get togethers with friends and cheese is a staple appetizer in our house. So I purchased my own and have been using it weekly since. It cuts easily and it's mostly easy to clean. Sometimes cheese gets stuck in the crack but some scrubbing with a small brush usually does the trick." — Jessica
Get it from Amazon for $18.05 (available in two colors).
21. A set of pastel glitter highlighters I saw on Instagram recently and NEARLY BLACKED OUT from the cuteness.

Russell Crowe Joins Henry Cavill in Chad Stahelski's HIGHLANDER Reboot — GeekTyrant

Russell Crowe is officially suiting up for sword-swinging immortality. The Oscar-winning actor has joined the cast of Chad Stahelski's Highlander reboot, taking on the iconic Ramirez mentor role originally played by Sean Connery in the 1986 cult classic. He'll star opposite Henry Cavill, who's already been set as the film's lead. Crowe and Cavil previously appeared in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, so this project is a little reunion for the duo. This new Highlander is coming from Amazon MGM Studios and United Artists for a full theatrical release, with John Wick mastermind Stahelski behind the camera. The script is written by Michael Finch, and the team is aiming for a a fresh, full-throttle experience. For those new to the mythology, the original Highlander , directed by Russell Mulcahy, followed a centuries-spanning battle between immortal warriors, blending historical flashbacks with gritty present-day sword duels. It became a fan-fueled franchise with multiple sequels, a long-running TV series, and more than a few legendary lines. Yes, there can be only one, but clearly, there can also be reboots. Stahelski seems to be playing the long game. United Artists has secured full rights to the 1986 original, previously developed by Lionsgate, and there's already talk of expanding into a new series down the road. Crowe is next appearing in Nuremberg , alongside Rami Malek and Michael Shannon, dropping November 7. He's also wrapped up a Netflix thriller called Unabom , Walden Media's Cold War drama Billion Dollar Spy , and the Derrick Borte-directed action flick Bear Country . The director also previously teased the action in the film and explained that it will be inspired by the action in the John Wick films. "I'll keep it to the core. Most audiences, I'll use the gun analogy, most of what you know about gunfights or car chases because most of us don't get involved in gun fights, or car chases, or sword fights, we learn through movies.' "And what those movies show you is about 95% bullshit. You don't fight 50 guys with your bare hands and then walk away, but it's fun. It's wish fulfillment. 'So John Wick, we know it's a cartoon – I know it's not – but we also have fun with it. But we do tactical reloads, we try to do fire manipulations, stuff like the professionals do, the military do. But then we have fun with it, you know? Sword work is very much the same."' Cavill previously shared how big of a fan his is of the franchise and then said that the script for the film is 'extraordinary' and that the movie will take some 'big swings.' He said: "I am a Highlander fan, they're great fun movies. Obviously I watched them when I was a lot younger and have since rewatched, but also the TV show. 'I really enjoyed the lore behind it, that sense of a tragic warrior with more of a story to tell than a cool guy with a sword, doing cool things, and this goes even deeper into that. "What they've done so far and we're doing with the development of the script is extraordinary, I think people are going to be really, really pleased. 'Big swings are important, you play it safe, you're going to just go, 'Eh, I suppose it's fine?" but if you take a big swing, people love it or they hate it." Stahelski also previously talked about the movie, saying it will include both familiar characters and "elements" taken from the '90s TV series. "We're looking to do our story [and it] engages a lot of the same characters and stuff like that. But we've also brought in elements of all the TV shows. We're trying to do a bit of a prequel setup to The Gathering.' 'We have ideas for days about how to make the coolest characters and to make that an epic TV show. I just think that's a rich, rich mythology." Stahelski also explained that they are taking the best story elements from across the franchise and implementing it all into one story that will be spread out across a trilogy of films: "I think the TV series hit on a lot of great stuff wasn't in the feature, between the watchers and all the different types of immortals. How do we get this into a feature mode before we dribble it into the TV world? 'Well, let's restructure it in parts, let's look at it like it was a TV show, let's look at it like it was a high-end trilogy. How to we tell the story of The Gathering, The Quickenings, The Immortals and how do we really build this world out even more so than the original project? 'That's what we're restructuring right now. It's taking all the good stuff that we had before I was involved in the project from the script; redeveloping the script to give us really good chapters one, two and three; and expanding the world." He also talked about his vision for the film, saying: " The vision we're trying to get across and what we're trying to develop, I equate very close to Star Wars. The first one is a very satisfying ending but it does leave the door open and that's kind of how I see this. 'I would really like to expand it over three. I see The Gathering happening over three. It's tricky, don't get me wrong, that's why we're still developing it. We want to be able to tell three complete stories that all kind of fit. 'I think the Star Wars trilogy, at least up to The Empire Strikes Back, is a good example of how we want to process it." I very excited about this Highlander reboot and I hope that it delivers something awesome. Source: Deadline
