Welcome to your thirties, where you love things like “good” plates and finally learn how to pronounce psoas out of necessity. Turning thirty isn’t truly a milestone like people once posed it to be, but it does bring on a phase in life where you are open to change, and become a little more self-aware. That doesn’t mean that bar crawling days are over (plus you’re still an active member of the TikTok community), but you are not the same person you were in your roaring twenties. When it comes to ushering your friends and family into this era, mark their birthday with something they’ll love, like a stick vacuum cleaner. Ahead, we suggest practical home goods, wellness treats that aren’t a blow to the ego, then again, and timeless fashion picks they’ll cherish forever.
