Okay, I know slime is the bigger fad, but personally I prefer these space-themed puttys from Crazy Aarons. I can’t wait to take all my stress out on a fistful of the Milky Way or the North Star. ;)

Cosmic Putty: Star Dust, Milky Way, Infinite Nebula, Exoplanet, Northern Lights, Aura, Solar Wind, North Star 

BONUS: The Milky Way, Exoplanet, Northern Lights, Aura versions are all glow-in-the-dark!

Attention Startorialists! This gorgeous constellation backpack (with a laptop pocket) from Think Geek is currently 40% OFF! If that’s not your style, they also offer a messenger bag version (sadly not on sale), but still just as cool and functional. 

Either one will help you navigate the universe with your essential possessions. 

I tend to be either a minimalist or a maximalist when it comes to jewelry, hardly ever in between. These beautifully handmade hammered rings from Aquarian Thoughts on @etsy can be worn alone or stacked to fit with either inflection!

The crescent moon and star stud earrings could also be used flexibly as well, especially if you have multiple piercings.

It’s officially spring here in the northeast, but the weather seems to be dragging its feet and while it doesn’t need to be cold outside to crave some quality bath time, it does help. And by that rationale, I’m in need of all of these celestial bath bombs from Lush:

Rocket Science

Intergalactic

Twilight

The Big Sleep

Metamorphosis (because it looks a little like the Death Star to me lol)

BONUS: Get the first four bath bombs together as a set with the Astronomical Gift Set!

Emily and I spent all last week in Seattle at our annual astronomy meeting (AAS 233) and despite being indoors almost the entire time, these umbrellas from Totes sure would have been appropriate the few times we had to venture out in the rain. 

Use the night sky to your advantage with both their large and travel size constellation designs. Bonus: the large one closes inside out to better keep the water off you! SCIENCE. 

Summer’s post earlier today sent me down a Think Geek wormhole*, and I just had to share this Plush Planetary Bouquet right away! If there is a better way to say “You are my Universe” than with a bouquet of planets, then I don’t know what it is... until they come up with a bouquet of stars, or galaxies, or dark matter and dark energy, I guess!
