Welcome to Talking Top 10, a recurring series in which we feature the founders, CEOs, creators, and leaders who are shaking up their industries. Ahead, read our Q&amp;A with Abigail Cook Stone, and keep scrolling to shop her Top 10 must-haves.In 2017, <a href="https://www.otherland.com/">Otherland</a> Founder Abigail Cook Stone set out to build a different kind of candle brand. Inspired by her lifelong passion for art and interiors, her moderately healthy obsession with candles, and her family philosophy of finding small ways to elevate everyday life with “extra verve,” Otherland was born. From morning meditation to late-night business school study sessions at her apartment, Abigail realized that candles were a constant in her life, but she struggled to find a brand that fit her lifestyle. The best smelling candles were often too expensive, while budget-friendly options often had ultra-sweet fragrances and lackluster design. Recognizing this gap in the market, she sparked the idea for Otherland, a modern candle brand that transforms your home into an immersive world that never stands still. To create Otherland, Abigail married her backgrounds in art, e-commerce, and venture capital. While attending Columbia Business School, she was an associate at Founder Collective, a seed-stage venture fund, and a partner at Dorm Room Fund, First Round Capital's student-run VC fund. She has an MBA from Columbia and previously worked at Ralph Lauren in Art Acquisitions.Catch up with <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alphagail/?hl=en">Abigail</a> on Instagram and be sure to check out Otherland's <a href="https://www.instagram.com/otherlandco/?hl=en">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/otherlandhome/">Facebook</a>, and <a href="https://twitter.com/otherlandhome">Twitter</a> while you're at it.

Stemming from a retail empire, Neely and Chloe Burch were groomed to be entrepreneurs from birth. Their father, Bob Burch and his brother, Chris founded the successful retail company Eagle's Eye prior to the latter co-creating Tory Burch with his wife, Tory. Both business and retail were instilled in the siblings at an early age. They accompanied their parents on work-related trips and were included in retail development conversations at the dinner table.In 2014, Neely and Chloe, ages 23 and 22, respectively, purchased a 1930s airstream to create a mobile retail boutique featuring sought-after brands. In just one year, they held upward of fifty pop-ups on college campuses along the East Coast. Ultimately, this translated into intensive market research—they learned what these college students liked and wanted, but couldn't find: a luxe-like, timeless, and affordable handbag. In 2016, Neely and Chloe formed a lifestyle accessories brand targeting the All-American, savvy shopper. Their offering includes timeless and seasonless styles with an accessible price point and the option for customization. Neely and Chloe continue to develop classic silhouettes and products that are directly informed by the customer. They generate product feedback via social media engagement in which they request preferences on everything from size, color, and embellishments. Now stocked in over 180 retail doors, the lifestyle brand has resonated with a wide audience beginning with ages 25-34, as well as a mature customer, who is now assuming 25% of their demographic. The Neely &amp; Chloe showroom is based in New York City.Keep scrolling to discover Neely and Chloe's fashion must-haves, and don't forget to follow Neely &amp; Chloe on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/neelyandchloe/?hl=en">Instagram</a> and check out their <a href="https://neelyandchloe.com/">site</a> to shop their latest collection!
