Shopping

After ten years of bath and body baskets from your favorite aunt, you vowed to do two things: take more baths and be a better gift giver than her. 

Trump her attempts at Blueprint Modern's new pop-up shop in Rice Village. Expertly curated by owner Katie Dalrymple, the sleek white space is so pristine you’ll think you stumbled upon an art gallery - but you're allowed to fondle the merch without a glare. Be sure to take in the dressing rooms-turned-wrapping stations and metal text art from local artist Tara Conley, along with finds like clutches, a canine-filled coffeetable book (proceeds go to the SPCA) and cowhide throw pillows.

The only bubbles you want in your tub are Taittinger.
