As a Shopping Writer, I Can Guarantee These Cozy Wardrobe Gifts Are Worth It

Bose Soundlink Plus Bluetooth Speaker ($159)

I'm someone who really values sound quality. If you catch me in my apartment, I'm constantly playing music, and while I'm no Swiftie (sorry, not sorry), I do love blasting some new Olivia Dean, Sabrina Carpenter, or quite a few niche indie bands you probably don't know (but definitely should). Basically, it's my background noise for everything — cleaning, cooking, or spending any amount of time at the beach — which is why I nearly had a conniption when my 10-year-old Bose Bluetooth speaker went bad. Luckily, this new one sounds even better, and I'd recommend it to anyone who values music as much as I do.
