No, we’re not Oprah. But like Oprah, we do have our own Harper Girls favorite things. Many of these items you’ve seen repeated in our gift guides. That’s because we love them so much we can’t stop ourselves from recommending them. All of these are products either one or us or both of us can’t live without.
We don’t want our Harper Girls favorite things to be kept a secret. We want you to enjoy them as much as we do. So, that’s why we created this section for you to learn more about them.
Be sure to check back too, we’ll be updating this section as we find new and wonderful favorites to share with you.
**Please Note: This post contains affiliate links and we will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on our links. However, we only recommend products that we truly love.
Allbirds
These are shoes that not just we love, but that our whole family loves. We recently posted about how well Dianne’s feet on our trip to Disney, but it wasn’t just her. Almost everyone in our family has a pair and loves them.
The shoes pictured are the women’s Tree Runners, made from eucalyptus fiber which makes them breathable (and machine washable!). They are great for warm weather.
We also love their Wool Runners which are great for cooler weather and are water repellent as well. Allbirds are available for both men and women and prices run from around $100 – $150.
Ember Mug
This is one of Jen and her husband Mike’s favorites. They both use them and have given them as gifts many times. The Ember mug is not just another “mug warmer”. It allows you to set an exact drinking temperature and it will stay at that temperature for an hour and a half.
The original Ember mug comes in two sizes, 10 oz. and 14 oz. and is priced at $129.95 and $149.95 respectively for the different sizes. It also available as a travel mug also.
Always in High Heels on Etsy
I wish we could show all of Tiffany’s designs on this page. They are all amazing, but don’t take our word for it, click on the link to see all of them.
We love her new “Manifest That Sh*t” collection. It’s just one of many different collections she offers. You can purchase individual items or an entire set in most collections.
If you’ve been following us for a while, you might remember our fall high heel mug photo on social media from a few months back.
Always in High Heels designs include the high heel designs as well as other patterns in calendars, notebooks, planners, etc. If you are looking for a pretty and feminine look, this is the place to shop. Prices start at just $5 for her adorable sticky notes.
K. Carroll Accessories
Dianne worked at K. Carroll Accessories for 12 years before leaving to start “The Harper Girls”. So she can attest to the quality and thought that goes into these bags. The company is women-owned and operated and the bags are designed with what women like and want in their handbags, not just what looks good.
The bag pictured is the Harper Crossbody, Oprah’s Favorite Things 2016 and their overall best selling bag.
And it’s no coincidence that it’s named the Harper. The owner of K. Carroll Accessories, Kelly Carroll Burgin, named the bag the Harper in honor of Dianne’s mom after she passed away (and before we knew it would be one of Oprah’s Favorite Things!)
Dianne was even able to get their handbags on the television show “General Hospital”. She wrote about that experience in a prior blog post entitled, “How I Combined What I Love With What I Do” that also includes an interview with General Hospital’s Head Costume Designer, Shawn Reeves, that Dianne worked with during her time at K. Carroll.
As we mentioned, the Harper Girls favorite things will be updated frequently, so check back for more recommendations. In the meantime, you can check out all product recommendations in our Gift & Shopping Guides Section.
