"Each of these designs were created with the DailyCandy girl in mind and we are thrilled that our readers can buy these items on DailyCandy.com."

The six products designed for DailyCandy are:

• Warby Parker —Vintage-inspired eyewear with a contemporary twist, Warby Parker touts affordable price points and donates a pair of eyeglasses for every one purchased. "DailyCandy Collaborations'" exclusive item is pink tortoiseshell sunglasses with gradient lenses, featuring the Warby Parker and DailyCandy logos inside the temple of the glasses. ($95)

• Isa's Restoratives—A beauty line entirely handmade in Brooklyn, New York, founder Isa Brito is dedicated to using only the highest quality wild harvested herbs and pure organic ingredients.

• Forage—After meeting in a kissing booth at an art school carnival, designers Stephen Loidolt and Shauna Alterico set out to make unique statement pieces as gifts for friends, which led to their famed bow tie business, Forage.

They created three different bow ties for "DailyCandy Collaborations." ($36)

To help launch the latest "DailyCandy Collaborations" collection, DailyCandy's Chief Correspondent, SuChin Pak, will showcase the items in a video, accompanied by exclusive interviews with Warby Parker's Neil Blumenthal and jewelry designer Jaclyn Mayer. DailyCandy editors will be modeling each item that they co-created, giving readers a look into who inspired the creation of the products.
