In case you hadn't heard, Taylor Swift [1] just released a new song and iconic music video [2] called "You Need to Calm Down." [3] Ever since that launch, we have, in fact, not been able to calm down. Which is why we freaked out just a little (OK, a lot) when we spotted this Ryan Porter Candle [4] ($29) at Urban Outfitters that says, "Girl, You Need to Calm the F Down." While Swift is in no way associated with this candle, we love the fact that we can light it while singing the lyrics to her catchy and politically charged song that urges love and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community.
Not only is the pink candle perfectly pastel, but the floral yet woody fragrance sounds like a self-care dream come true. If you appreciate a nice scented candle [5] after a long day, these ones from Ryan Porter are worth picking up. They're funny (we're also definitely buying the "B*tch, Don't Be So Mimosional" one), will look pretty on your vanity, and if nothing else, are a nice way to take a minute for yourself. Because, let's face it, we could all use a little reminder to calm down sometimes.
