Bracelet from Love Weld
Permanent jewelry has popped on the scene, and it is such a fun trend. Get a custom fit, welded on, clasp-less piece of jewelry that you can wear while you exercise, work, shower, cook, party, sleep … you get the point. I plan on celebrating my sister’s birthday with fun matching bracelets from Love Weld (their jewelry is 14k gold, minimalistic and so beautiful).

Wallet from Noah Marion
Noah Marion is an iconic spot on South Congress; you have to pop in if you’re in the area. The brand’s minimalistic vibes extend from the perfectly styled storefront to their house-made collection. They offer leather goods, as well as a curated selection of vintage clothing. This spring, I’m upgrading my wallet with their gender neutral Tous Les Jours wallet. Hoping my husband doesn’t steal it for himself!

Pro Starter Set from Supply Co
I got a set of Supply Co’s Pro Razor for my husband’s birthday a couple years ago, and he still says it’s the cleanest shave of his life. Founded in Austin, Supply Co offers an approachable and ultra-customizable single edge razor. Their starter set contains everything you need to upgrade your shaving routine, including their single edge razor, shaving cream, lather brush and soothing post shave toner.
