The January Reset: What Our Editors Love This Month

The January Reset: What Our Editors Love This Month

I think I speak for all of our editors when I say that this January calls for a softer reset type. It’s less about rethinking our whole life and more about paying attention to it: how we move through our days, what really sustains us, and what we’re willing to give up. It’s a month that invites simplicity, stability and small choices that help us feel better in our bodies and more anchored in our routines.

This month’s editors’ picks reflect that mindset. Think about pieces that make everyday life a little easier, more nourishing and more thoughtful, from well-being essentials we truly use home finds that bring calm to the daily rhythm, to style pieces that feel effortless yet intentional. These are things that help us start the year feeling supported, not pressured — and we’re excited to share what’s currently gaining a permanent place in our lives.

In our closets

The tote you’ll take everywhere

Who doesn’t love finding a room for you Never I guess this is the bag for me. I’m a long-time fan of Patricia Nash, but as I approach my 30s, I’ve become intentional about investing in pieces that are timeless, well-made, and endlessly wearable.

The Pomeia Satchel hits that sweet spot perfectly. It’s refined without being precious: structured enough to enhance an outfit, casual enough to wear every day. It’s the bag that works with everything and yes, you’ll get compliments every time you leave the house. If you are ready to invest in an accessory that will survive the trends And wear it beautifully over time, this is the one. – Isabelle Eyman, editorial strategist

The fur coat that makes a statement of quiet luxury

My 2026 vision board is basically a collage of elegant women in fur coats looking endlessly fabulous, so when I bought it, I couldn’t tell if I’d manifested it or finally given myself permission to indulge in something timeless. Anyway, this coat book. I wore it constantly at home in Vermont on vacation, and not only did it keep me warmer (really, so comfortable), but it made every outfit feel instantly elevated. And that’s saying something, considering my hometown fills up with very chic New Yorkers every ski season.

If fur isn’t your look (how?), I’m also eyeing the rumors. Sun Valley Sherpa and the Wrangler Shearling Jacket in black, because apparently my winter uniform now revolves entirely around excellent outerwear. – Isabelle Eyman, editorial strategist

Evergreen Energy, But Make It Comfortable

If there’s one purchase that feels completely deserved this season, it’s my Aritzia Sweatfleece set. The Boyfriend Wide Leg Sweatpants and correspondence Cozy Boyfriend Zip-Up Fleece Boxy Hoodie were my post-finals gift, and I’ve had trouble taking them off ever since. The fit is relaxed in that effortless It-girl way: polished enough for errands but soft enough for lounging on the couch. – Casey McKee, editorial assistant

Trader Joe’s mini tote, but better

I have fallen head over heels in love with embroidery and can’t wait to embroider all winter long! I just received this mini boat and tote from LL Bean to use as an individual project bag, and I am in love with it. It’s the perfect size for a canvas and all my supplies! LL Bean is known for their quality and I can say this bag will last me forever. Obsessed! – Kristen Garaffo, editor-in-chief

The base layer that made me fall in love with ski style again

I grew up skiing and spent the holidays at home in Vermont, which reminded me how much I always loved the sport. But this year, I officially fell in love with the sport. style of that too. Apres-ski energy, luxurious alpine ambiance, all the time. It’s trendy for a reason. This red racer striped base layer is both high-performance and fashionable: warm, flattering and cool enough to wear long after the boots come off. It’s the kind of piece that makes dressing for the slopes feel intentional rather than purely practical.

Next on my investment list? Sunday skiing stylish black ski suit-easy to put on, incredibly flattering, and exactly the kind of piece that makes you want to linger a little longer afterwards. Watch me be the most stylish skier on the mountain. – Isabelle Eyman, editorial strategist

In our kitchens

Your new hydration hack

This one almost goes without saying: I probably consumed exactly 365 of them Lmnt packages this year because I literally don’t go a day without one. I credit my “well-being water” (a large Hydrojug enriched with LMNT Grapefruit + a scoop of creatine) to keep me energetic, well hydrated and in a good mood throughout the day. – Camille Styles, editor-in-chief

My tip for weeknight dinner

Coming from someone who reads a lot of cookbooks, it was most likely the best of 2025. I had the opportunity to hear Samin in person during her book tour earlier this year, and discovering the heart she put into this book made it even more meaningful. The writing is beautiful, and more importantly, I want to cook All. Start with the “home dressing room”. – Camille Styles, editor-in-chief

In our bathrooms

The face cream I use all winter

I’ve long loved Anima Mundi for their herbal supplements and toners, so it seemed natural to incorporate their skincare into my routine this winter. This facial cream has become my go-to for deep nourishment – ​​rich but not heavy, comforting without feeling greasy, and just what my skin needs during the colder months. – Isabelle Eyman, editorial strategist

The essentials your makeup bag needs

It’s rare for me to find a concealer that doesn’t crease fine lines, so this weightless serum which blends seamlessly into the skin and acts more like skincare, so that’s my jam. It deflates and also helps fight dark circles. – Camille Styles, editor-in-chief

The perfect pop of color

Why do I like this creamy shade? It literally blends into the skin with a sheer color that makes you feel like you’re glowing from the inside out.

If you didn’t think it was possible to be obsessed with something like a hair towelthink again.

The winter lip combo you’ve been dreaming of

Let me introduce you to the winter lipstick that has been earning me compliments all holiday season. This deep plum color seemed intimidatingly dark at first, but it fades into a bitten color, like your lips after eating berries or drinking red wine. Pair it with the Make Up Forever Lip Pencil I mentioned here for an easy winter lip combo. – Langa Chinyoka, beauty editor

A must-have for your morning routine

My new favorite part of my morning routine: this 4 in 1 facial wand from Meaningful Beauty by Cindy Crawford. I’ve tried a lot of facial tools, but I love how small and portable this one is. Plus, unlike other devices, you don’t need a specific gel: just apply your favorite moisturizer or serum and select your setting. You get red light, heat, and a facial massage with this little handheld tool. It’s so satisfying to wake up and warm up my face with a quick facial massage that makes me look lifted and grounded. – Langa Chinyoka, beauty editor

A proven beauty must-have

I know the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask had its moment in the sun five years ago, but I’m still an enthusiast who uses it every night. This mask keeps my lips from chapping, and considering I live in DC, where it’s dry and freezing, it’s a winter miracle. – Kristen Garaffo, editor-in-chief

The Simple Skincare Supplement of the Year

Hyacera is one of those supplements that I didn’t realize did so much…until I noticed that my skin just looked better. More even, more hydrated and visibly more radiant in that healthy, rested way that’s not shiny or overdone. It’s become a non-negotiable part of my daily routine, especially in winter when my skin is usually dull and dry. – Camille Styles, editor-in-chief

A Hair Health Reset

This mask has become a staple of my 2026 hair health reset. This year, I’m focusing on building strength, softness, and long-term care, and this fits perfectly with that mindset. I incorporated it into my Sunday night reset ritual and it deeply nourishes without weighing my hair down. – Camille Styles, editor-in-chieff

In our routines

The Nighttime Beauty Hack I Didn’t Know I Needed

I’m always a little skeptical about beauty shortcuts, but this one has truly earned its place in my routine. Seald Facial Tape works with your skincare to smooth expression lines overnight. I’ve noticed such a difference that I now only book Botox once a year (instead of three visits). I’m also obsessed with mouth tape: my sleep has been much deeper and more restorative since its addition. Gentle, dermatologist-tested, and women-founded, Seald feels like one of those quietly effective rituals that you stick with because it actually works. – Isabelle Eyman, editorial strategist

As someone who has tried many journals, I couldn’t stick to this habit (and was really looking forward to it!) until I found this. fantasy journal.

I especially like how it turns this information into simple daily preparation information that helps me listen to my body and adapt accordingly. – Tatom Hoffman, marketing intern

Being a tourist in my own city

One of my favorite January rituals is becoming a regular Portland Art Museum. I recently signed up for an annual subscription and love the feeling of curiosity and connection it gives me with my own city. I arrive without an agenda, spend time with just a few works – often our incredible collection of Rothko paintings (yes, he was from Portland) – and really let myself sit with them. No pressure to see everything, no rushing through the galleries. Then I’ll have a coffee, newspaper, or read nearby. It’s simple, grounding, and has quickly become my favorite way to spend a slow weekend afternoon. – Isabelle Eyman, editorial strategist

Lock in style

Setting new goals for 2026 would not be possible without my Bose Noise Canceling Headphones. They are an essential part of my life and you will never catch me without them. When it’s time to concentrate, wearing them is a game changer! – Kristin Garaffo, editor-in-chief
