For seven years, NBC’s The Golden Girls brought the fantastic lives of Blanche, Rose, Sophia, and Dorothy into our televisions. It has since passed down to our younger generation through syndication and popular culture.
Unlike many other shows featuring a group of women, the Golden Girls weren’t young twenty-somethings trying to figure out their lives, these were fifty (and eighty) somethings trying to figure out their lives. The show reminded us that women’s lives don’t just stop once their children are grown or if they are widowed/divorce. In honor of their seven years on air (1986-1992) here are seven pieces of golden swag. Thank you for being a friend.
(1) A 11×7 custom printed clutch by Brooke Van Gory. A great item for a quick night on the town with your own golden girls. $32.99 USD.
(2) A lovely piece of BUST boobtique merchandise. A golden shirt featuring our lovely lady protagonists. $22.95 USD.
(3) Redbubble has this awesome design in nine colors and can come in not just shirt form, but sweaters, hoodies, and v-neck tops. $22.40+ USD.
(4) Get them while they’re young with this adorable onesie by rainbowalternative that comes in white, blue and pink. $13.00 USD.
(5) There are multiple versions of this mug, but we chose the Blanche one because well, she was a Southern Belle. The art design was done by LittleThingsInLife and you can decide which girl you’d like to be. $17.95+ USD.
(6) Handmade to order, the Golden Girls nail art decals by Nailspin, featuring all of our lovely ladies. Plus 15 of them for $4.00 USD.
(7) Finally, the perfect decorations for bags, jackets, and walls: buttons! Or if buttons aren’t your jam, they come in magnet form too! $8.00 USD from Pushbuttons.
