Olivia Rodrigo is back with her third studio album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love. This new offering features 13 tracks chock-full of “sad love songs,” in her words, including “Stupid Song” and “U + Me = <3.” The internet is abuzz with excitement, likely because it’s been nearly three years since the pop singer/songwriter released an album, her last being Guts from 2023.
In an Instagram message posted Friday (June 12), Rodrigo wrote, “I love this album so much. The record is a time capsule of a relationship in all of its highs and lows. It’s my attempt at capturing love from both sides of the coin. The hope and the disappointment. The insanity and the clarity. The entanglement and the unraveling.”
Inspired by and in celebration of her new music, Hot Topic dropped a line of merch that is pretty hard to pass up. Every piece is inspired by the themes and aesthetics of the album, down to the graphics featured on comfy hoodies and even decorative enamel pins.
Pricing ranges from $8.91 to $66.90. We’ve chosen a few of our favorites from the capsule that are very cute and, most importantly, something that we can see our readers actually wearing. Whether you’re a diehard Rodrigo Stan or just looking for some new stylish clothes for the summer, there’s something for everyone.
Additionally, from Friday (June 12) to Sunday (June 14), Hot Topic is running a buy two, get one free sale, which includes all of Rodrigo’s new merch.
Cozy hoodies never go out of style, especially when they’re adorned with Rodrigo’s face. This oversized style features heart-shaped graphics and artwork from the “Vampire” singer’s album lend a grungy and whimsical vibe to this piece.
It’s an oversized number with a zip-up closure and a drawstring to pull the hood taut. Since this hoodie comes in brown, you’re likely to get lots of use out of it, because the neutral tone pairs well with a variety of colors. Plus, warm items like this get a ton of wear no matter the season because you can throw them over everything from dresses and tops to tying them around your waist for a layered moment on particularly breezy summer days.
These graphic T-shirts feature Rodrigo’s album cover front and center. One comes in pink, framed by flowers in the shape of a heart, while the other features graphics of the artist solo in black and tan. We love styles like this because they are comfortable and oversized, leaving the wearer feeling relaxed and unrestricted, and they go with most items you likely already have in your closet.
Pop this on with a denim miniskirt and combat boots for an edgy moment, or keep it casual with barrel jeans and sneakers. Styles come in sizes XS to 3XL, a range meant to fit most, if not all, body types. If you’re looking for a baggier fit, we’d suggest sizing up. If you want to opt for something more maximalist, give the pink style a try. If you want a more versatile basic in neutrals, the taupe tee should be your go-to.
Our prediction? Buttons will soon dethrone the ever-popular bag charm. Enamel styles like this set of four have been pinned to totes, crossbody bags and shoulder styles since forever, upgrading and diversifying the look of everyday items and turning them into something more personal.
Buttons like these reflect tastes while creating visual interest, much like bag charms. They’re collectible and, unlike bag charms, pins don’t wear down as easily because of the enamel coating. This means they’ll last longer on your bag, even if you’re a bit rough with it.
Like the buttons in this line, these stickers add a personal touch to anything you stick them to, turning the mundane items in your routine into something playful and fun.
Meanwhile, Target and Amazon have official You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love merch available to buy now.
