College essentials are even better when they’re made just for you. 🤍

I’ve been having so much fun personalizing pieces for college this year—from towels and hair towels to the little things that make a dorm room feel a little more like home.

And there may be a practical benefit, too: when everyone on your floor has the same basic stuff, a monogram makes yours pretty hard to mix up. 😉

I love watching something go from beautiful to completely personal with just a little thread.

College students, daughters, girlfriends, roommates…these make such fun gifts.

Who would you personalize one for?

The calendar may say September, but with 90° days ahead, we're definitely not packing up summer just yet.
There are still lake days, pool afternoons, beach weekends—and hopefully a few more days that require nothing more than sunshine, a swimsuit and a good towel.
Our Turkish towels were made for days like these.
Lightweight. Quick drying. Easy to pack. And they take up a fraction of the space of a traditional beach towel.
Are you hanging onto summer or ready for fall?
☀️ SUMMER FOREVER
🍂 BRING ON FALL

7:30am gym, 9am econ, zero time to sit around with wet hair 🏃‍♀️ Our Turkish hair towel dries noticeably faster than a regular towel. It’s a morning routine need - because "I'll just skip the shower" isn't a real plan.

Part three of our College Series, one dorm essential at a time.

Skip the last-minute Amazon order 📦 Turkish cotton dries faster, packs smaller, and skips the "damp towel" smell you get after a week of dorm showers.

Only 1 month until move-in day ⏰

We're kicking off our College Series this week, breaking down our dorm room must-haves one by one: bath towels, a cozy robe, and a quick-dry hair towel.

Bonus: our towels and robes come with custom monogramming, so nothing gets left behind - or mixed up with a roommate's 💙

More from this series coming soon. Save this for your packing list ✅

Meet Julie, the owner of Marlo + Olive 🙋🏼‍♀️

Julie co-founded the brand with her friend Derya six years ago - but after a year, Derya stepped back to focus on her career in social work. Julie's been running things ever since, though Derya still shows up when it counts, and Julie will be the first to say she couldn't have done this without her. 🤍

Swipe for the story behind it all (and some numbers that might surprise you) 🧿

Ever wonder why there's an eye on everything we make? 🧿 Found it in our story yesterday? The evil eye's been a symbol of protection for centuries - but for us, it's personal too. In our owner's words:

"The soft blues remind me of peaceful days by the water. Every towel carries that symbol because wrapping yourself in one should feel like wrapping yourself in warmth and care." 💙

Meet the towels with a little something extra 🧵 This set was custom embroidered for a paddle team — though honestly, it works just as well for a bachelorette weekend, a girls trip, or any group that deserves something with their name on it 💙

Send to the group chat that needs a set for their next trip ✨💬 see our website to start a custom order 🧿
