In my mind, NOTHING is better than when two of your favorite brands come together to collaborate on a new product or new line. As a marketer, I just love when a brand is confident enough to play with one of their competitors and have the foresight that they are stronger together. And as a consumer, it is an indication that my favorite brands really ‘get me’ and the lifestyle I try to create for myself.
Brand collabs have been getting SO creative and just ‘too-good-to-be-true’ lately, which is why I wanted to share a few favorites that I’ve been coveting.
Stoney Clover Lane X Disney Princesses
Stoney Clover Lane has been known to do MANY collaborations and each is better than the last. Right now, they have an incredible partnership with Disney where they have a Disney Princesses line (my favorite), a Mickey & Friends line, and Star Wars line. I’m truly obsessed with them all but the Dinsey Princess one makes my heart so happy. I wish I could buy them all for my next trip to Disney World but I’m settling for the phone case, fanny pack, and duffle. Like all of Stoney Clover Lane, each product is customizable. π
You can’t talk collaborations without talking about this ICONIC Adidas X Gucci collab that was released earlier this Summer. Candidly, my budget doesn’t allow me to buy anything in this collection at the moment but it’s really fun to pretend I can. π I LOVE that this collection balances the casual athleisure style that Adidas knows so well and the luxe looks Gucci constantly pumps out. If I could snag anything from this collection, It would definitely be this tee OR this tennis set.
Summersalt X Diane Von Furstenberg
Summersalt is another brand that really kills it in the collaboration game. In addition to their DVF collection right now, they also recently partnered with Kendra Scott, Mestiza, and Rifle Paper Co., so it was hard to just pick one to feature here. What I love about the DVF partnership is that it’s DVF! She’s such an icon and I love that she’s supporting a newer, smaller brand like Summersalt with this partnership. You can see her signature styles and prints incorporated into the pieces (like on the perfect Wrap One-Piece), making them so special. Summesalt bathing suits are by far some of my favorites so I just may need to snag a few of these pieces. π
Corckcicle’s make the BEST gifts and what I love about their collaborations is that you can make your gift even more custom to the person you are buying it for. While I love the Rifle Paper Co. partnership they have right now because of how beautiful they are, they also have Disney, Harry Potter, Marvel and other collaborations that are perfect for gifts for kids (or adult children) in your life. I have a few Corckcicles and they are truly the superior cup on the market (sorry Stanley π ). They keep my iced coffee cold for HOURS and that is really the biggest joy in life.
