Nothing sets a mood quite like a candle, and if you have had Troye Sivan’s “Rush” on repeat since last year’s Pride, then this is the candle for you. The latest release from Boy Smells, Citrush, is described as having “heaps of bright pomelo and citrus gush forth from a deep velvety base. Think ripe musks, iso e super, and the perfect pinch of black pepper.” We’re already feeling the Citrush.
Faherty, known for its super soft blankets, has debuted a fabulous new one: The Center Pride Blanket, which comes adorned with rainbows on both ends.

Another candle? Yeah, that’s right — because you can never have too many candles. It’s Giving Pride is the new colorful release from Radiant Light Candle Co. (founded by Logan Slaughter a.k.a. New York/Fire Island drag icon Logan Hardcore) in collaboration with Gay Pride Apparel. No two It’s Giving Pride candles are alike, “as each is uniquely colored, mirroring the beautiful diversity of the LGBTQ+ community,” reads the description. “Infused with an uplifting blend of orange, grapefruit, mango, and red currant, this candle ignites the senses with its refreshing and invigorating aroma, creating an atmosphere of acceptance and joy.”
When you trudge home all tired from your Pride festivities, what better place to wash off the glitter and sweat than in the shower behind a Filthy Shower Curtain from the John Waters: Pope of Trash collection at the Academy Museum Store.

Pride Month is so colorful even the Mistress of the Dark trades her signature black dress for a rainbow ensemble.

“Who is she?” your friends will ask every time they come over to pregame. “How is she so fabulous?” they’ll wonder as they pose for an impromptu photoshoot with this instantly iconic Movie Star Featherly Bird Friend. The fabulous bird is inspired by Tippi Hedren in The Birds, and she even has an Aston Martin car replica you can buy separately. The bird is currently sold out, but we think she’s worth the hunt on some secondary markets.
