31 Home Decor Finds You Won't Believe Are From Amazon
A woven pendant light for folks who want to create an upscale, open, and airy vibe in their home that'd make anyone jealous...at a price that's actually affordable.
Promising review: "We love it. We had to get a black mounting plate for the likes of our ceiling but otherwise it's awesome. It looks amazing." —Lady JLJPrice: $79.99
A handmade suitcase portable turntable with a design that suggests you snagged it from the set of Mad Men, even though the tech is anything but old school. This can convert your records into MP3 files, and it's compatible with 33, 45, and 78 rpm records.
A giant bamboo wall fan to fill your blank walls well (at a price your bank account is gonna love).
A Baroque mirror I can hardly believe is actually on Amazon. Get this in your life (at this price!) before everybody finds out our little secret and it's sold out for good!
Promising review: "All I can say is woooow! This mirror is not only affordable, but the quality is amazing. It's heavy and not cheap looking. The gold color is not so tacky, and it's done just right. My main concern was receiving a broken mirror but the packaging was great and arrived in one piece. Don't hesitate buying this gem, you need it!" —Celeste CPrice: $84.99+ (available in five styles and 10 sizes)
A retro lamp that'll shine a light on your vivid, crayon-inspired color scheme brilliantly.
A floor mattress you can use all on its own. Eliminate bland bed frames from your life and create an open, organic vibe in your bedroom with this beautiful bedding solution instead.
A coffee syrup dispenser set complete with premade flavor labels for turning your kitchen into the intimidatingly chic cafe you, sigh, don't have in suburbia.
Interlocking Teak tiles I'm pretty certain were made specifically to turn rentals into brag-worthy homes. You don't need tools to install them as long as they're going on a hard, flat surface. That means you'll be able to simply take them apart and pack them up the next time you move!
Promising review: "Living in Hawaii you have to select wise items that are weather-, salt-, and red dirt-proof, etc... In total, I ordered 11 boxes to complete my yoga deck. I have a few left over to make steps on the back. Very pleased and happy. May order more for an outdoor shower project!" —AdeliaPrice: $77.48 for a pack of 10 tiles (available in smaller sets and samples)
A disco ball you're gonna need to bounce light all around your room if you're still deep into your Folklore era and want those "Mirrorball" vibes IRL.
Promising review: "My apartment gets very little sunlight, but every single night I look forward to when the sun sets so I can watch the light dance around the room. This simple little mirrored ball has brought me so much joy. Definitely recommend! Yes, there are areas where the mirror pieces are applied a little haphazardly but it's mostly at the bottom and quite frankly I don't care considering how affordable this thing is." —HollyPrice: $14.99+ (available in two colors and two sizes)
A pearl lamp so dang darling it'd practically be ~shellfish~ to not get it for your home!
The battery-powered pearl light can be removed from the ceramic shell base and carried around, making this a great choice for children who like having a night-light nearby. Promising review: "This is a pretty and unique light, but be aware, the battery only lasts about 48 hours, so I removed one star. It is quirky and unique mood lighting." —T3268Price: $20.99 (available in two colors)
An artificial olive tree for folks who love *window* shopping at Pottery Barn and West Elm, but prefer getting clever and creating the vibe at half the cost.
A roll of metallic-gold leopard-print peel-and-stick wallpaper to add some glam to your place. Some people like beige as a base color. But if you, like me, love that maximalist life...beige doesn't stand a chance.

A bendable halo projector lamp with FIVE halo bulbs in total — get this, and you can make your late-night study sessions entertaining in an instant.
A pair of rainbow drip candles to display inside a vase, wine bottle, or candleholder. These colorful candles will brighten up your room even better than the flame you light 'em with!
Promising review: "These have to be the coolest thing I have ever purchased. I have them in an empty wine bottle. I will be buying many more to cover the entire bottle in wax." —BrePrice: $5.52
An iridescent mini shelf with six different levels that'll keep your skincare, jewelry, and sunglasses on a dazzling display.
A pair of plush velvet pillow covers, because the last tenant painted the walls solid black and adding rich jewel tones can help add depth and interest. Plus, plush materials like velvet are gonna organically give that dungeon a dark, romantic aesthetic.
A metal mirror with an open black frame — this piece is sure to step up the aesthetic of any room it rests in. With a mirror like this, whatever reflects in it is sure to look like a piece of art. Oh, it's your face? Gorgeous! Get on the phone with Guggenheim!
A pair of linen café curtains reviewers use both over their windows as a way to create privacy (while still getting light!) *and* as a gorgeous upgrade to unsightly storage spaces. If you find yourself glaring down at the packaged foods and mismatched dishes you have underneath your kitchen island, set these curtains up and hide that all away *while* making your kitchen look chic as can be!
A tissue box holder for providing even the most mundane of home necessities with a chance to look overwhelmingly lovely in your place. Plus, it helps you know when to restock!
An ultra soft faux-fur rug sure to feel luxurious every time you get out of bed and have this fancy fuzz between your toes instead of the cold wood floors beneath your feet.
A framed canvas painting sure to create a cozy, lived-in touch in empty nooks and crannies that could use a little somethin' special.
An electric candle warming lamp that'll do far more than its fair share. Light this little device up with an unlit candle underneath, and it'll evenly melt the wax (it has both a dimmer and a timer), helping your candles last longer even if they've started tunneling. Make upcoming autumnal nights cozy as can be by turning off your overhead and cuddling up beside this bright little warmer.
A luxury-scented candle comparable to Le Labo's Santal 33 (we're talkin' rich notes of jasmine, oud, and sandalwood) for folks who are old enough now to want their home to have its very own signature scent. Sigh, it's such a satisfying stage in life — I'm right there with you. And this candle is about to be with ME.
A wireless library light you can use to highlight favorite books or pieces of art in your home. It has both warm and cool light settings, so it can easily match your seasonal aesthetic shift.
A cheerful fruit bowl with a spiffy secret — it's also a colander — for keeping your produce on display. Fresh produce on the counter looks so lovely *and* reminds you to eat your rutabagas before they go bad.
A pair of ceramic vases in a Nordic neutral color. These'll add a tasteful mix of earth tones and industrial geometry to any surface you place them on.
A pair of battery-operated sconces that'll instantly create a cozy, romantic, Nora Ephron-approved aesthetic in your living room.
A terribly cool Tetris-esque lamp that's actually stackable! Adjust this '80s-era light whenever you get the hankering for a game of furniture Tetris. You're getting older, old enough to remember when Tetris came out... give your back a break.

Charles Dickens's Daily Routine: Cold Plunges, Long Walks, and Set Hours
The much-beloved writer Charles Dickens has been widely hailed as the greatest Victorian novelist. He was the Victorian equivalent of a rock star, going on tour around England and internationally, enjoying greater popularity during his earthly years than any prior writer had. But like many other great artists, Dickens did not stumble into his fame and success by accident. It was the result of conscious effort, discipline, and a well-balanced daily routine—combined, of course, with once-in-a-generation genius and native talent. The results were awe-inspiring and continue to captivate readers in all the 150 languages into which his work has been translated. Inspiration Follows Discipline Dickens treated his creative work like any other job: He was punctual and kept set hours. He didn't wait for the muse to shower him with inspiration or for the right mood to strike him like lightning from the sky before taking up his pen. Such a romantic view of the creative process would likely have hindered his work. Dickens knew that, often, inspiration comes after knuckling down to work, not before. It joins the writer as a traveling companion only after he has begun the journey of the day's writing quota.

I'm 5 Feet Tall, and I'm Eyeing These 11 Petite Midi and Maxi Dresses at Amazon, Nordstrom, and More—From $20
As someone five-feet-tall, I know that shopping for a midi-length or maxi dress that won't drag on the ground is, well, a drag. Either you have to spend time (and money) tailoring it, or do some legwork to find stylish petite options from online retailers, considering the right size is rarely in stores. With a few summer vacations on my calendar, I opted for the latter option and browsed through my go-to petite brands to find flattering dresses that fit my frame perfectly. Naturally, I had to share my findings with my fellow petite shoppers, so I rounded up the best maxi and midi dress options from Amazon, Nordstrom, Anthropologie, and more. From a $29 travel-friendly knit dress to a European-summer-inspired maxi shirt dress, I found styles for every travel itinerary. Keep reading for 11 of my top picks, starting at $20. You'll never catch me in the airport in a dress above my knees, but now and then, I like to throw on a stylish, comfortable midi dress to elevate my travel look. This Gap ribbed knit option is perfect for exactly that, and with a $29 price tag, I immediately added it to my shopping cart. I opted for the olive green shade, which will seamlessly transition into fall, but it is also available in black, striped, and fuchsia. This sleeveless midi dress is effortlessly chic and looks much more expensive than its $35 price tag. The fitted top is made from a comfortable, smocked knit material, and it's paired with a puffed peplum skirt featuring a flattering drop waistline that helps make your torso appear longer—perfect for petite shoppers. Quince is known for its effortless travel clothing, and this midi tank dress is no exception. The travel-ready piece is made from a breathable, soft cotton blend. One five-foot-two reviewer wrote that "the dress is perfect," adding that it's "simple and sophisticated." This light and airy maxi dress captures the art of summer dressing. It is trimmed with lace detailing and features an embroidered design on the bodice. Now, the hard part is deciding between the classic black shade and the cottagecore-inspired indigo. Considering they're both on sale, I might have to snag both! While this midi dress isn't available in petite sizing, it has adjustable spaghetti straps that allow for a customizable fit. The fit-and-flare dress, which can be easily dressed up or down, features a fitted ribbed bodice with a low scoop back and a flowing skirt. This maxi dress features a similar design to the above option, with a fitted, tank top bodice and an airy skirt, but its high neckline provides a bit more coverage. One five-foot-tall reviewer wrote that it's a 'great length,' and added that they 'loved it so much,' they bought a second color. The best part? It's marked down to just $22 right now, so I'm not missing my opportunity to shop it while it's on sale. This Lands' End petite maxi dress is begging to be worn on a tropical vacation, and its airy, lightweight material will help keep you cool on a hot summer day. It features a stretchy, smocked elastic back and adjustable tie straps, providing additional length customization for the petite dress. I'm not headed to Europe this summer, but if I were, I could easily picture myself strolling the cobblestone streets of Paris in this top-rated breezy shirtdress from The shirred elastic waist provides shape to the flowy silhouette, and it comes with a slip lining underneath the subtly sheer overlay fabric. I can already tell this ultra-comfy jersey maxi dress would become one of my staple travel pieces. It features flattering details, such as a smoothing waistband and a deep V-neck. Plus, the pullover design makes it easy to throw on and go, whether I'm catching an early morning flight or making a quick change before dinner. I can't resist a perfectly tailored dress, and this petite Anthropologie number fits the bill. The casual yet elegant shirt dress features eye-catching details, including a classic collar, exaggerated sleeves, and flattering pleats around the bodice. Additionally, the button-up front allows for a customizable look that can be worn as a dress or paired over a pair of shorts and a classic white tee. This top-rated midi dress is made from a summery, lightweight linen material and has a smocked waistband with a tie at the center and capped sleeves. One reviewer raved that it's 'very flattering and comfortable,' and a five-foot-three shopper wrote that 'the length is perfect.' Right now, the midi is an additional 40 percent off, bringing the price down to $84. Love a great deal?

The Boys' final season Comic-Con footage shows a safer nation under Homelander
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Every journey has an end, but chances are we won't encounter one as sweary as the final season of The Boys. Amazon's Emmy-winning series, which has mastered turning superheroes into villains, is set to conclude next year, and fans at this year's San Diego Comic-Con were fortunate enough to get a sneak peek of what's coming. Naturally, things don't look promising in this world filled with corrupt crimefighters after members of The Boys were snatched up last season, and Homelander (Antony Starr) seemingly seized complete control of the country, using the U.S. president as his puppet. What will it take to stop the star-spangled psychopath and his plans? Well, help from the younger generation might do the trick, or maybe something supernatural as well. According to a breakdown from Variety, the teaser trailer revealed the usual mix of blood, guts, and questionable liquids, along with some new and familiar faces sprinkled throughout. You know the drill by now, surely? A bloody hairball being thrown up here, a violently unhealthy bathroom trip there. One detail that will excite Supernatural fans, though, is Jared Padalecki showing his loveable mug in the preview, continuing the trend of cast members from showrunner Eric Kripke's previous 15-season show appearing in the Vought-ruled world. Kripke himself confirmed back in May that we would see Padalecki alongside Jensen Ackles' Soldier Boy and Misha Collins "all in the same frame together" at some point; we just don't know in what capacity, since Padalecki and Collins' roles still haven't been confirmed. The teaser also hinted at the ongoing crossover between The Boys and its spin-off super-school show, Gen V (whose second season is honestly looking like The Boys season 4.5), thanks to the appearance of one of its model students, Jordan Li (London Thor). Last we saw, they were trapped in an off-the-books facility along with the rest of the rebels in the show's first season, suggesting that they might be helping in the fight back against Vought and its unhinged poster boy here. Speaking of that milk-loving madman, it sounds like Homelander got the real mic drop moment of the teaser, having now taken his new unofficial role as ruler of the country. Declaring the United States as "a safer, more god-fearing nation," we can only expect that things will be anything but by the time the final episode airs. We'll be able to see who gets their cape crumpled and their body in a broken and bloody state when The Boys return to town for the last time in 2026.
