Luke’s Diner Mugs

Like Lorelai, we also wish we could be hooked up to a coffee IV. But if we have to settle for drinking coffee the old-fashioned way, we might as well do it in style. The Etsy shop BethLynnDesigns sells hand-painted Luke’s Diner coffee cups from $18. They also offer Gilmore Girls-inspired products, like Doose’s Market tote bags.
Lip Balm

Keep your lips moisturized with GG-inspired lip balms from Urban Tee Farm. Vicious Trollop, a pink-orange vanilla lip tint is named after Lorelai’s favourite lipstick; Spring Break is a mango-mint flavour with an orange tint for Paris and Rory’s beach vacation in their first year at Yale; and (of course) there is Java Junkie, a coffee-flavoured balm. One stick is about $6.70, but you can get all three for a little more than $16.
Urban Tee Farm Lip Balms in Vicious Trollop, Spring Break and Java Junkie ($6.70 each) at urbanteefarm.com.
Eye Shadow

Brija Cosmetics is vegan, cruelty- and dye-free e-shop that offers a Gilmore Girls-themed eye shadow palette with 17 different hues. Each colour is inspired by a character, like “Truly Important” for Miss Patty and “Notes in the Margins” for Jess. You can get them in various sizes, but why not purchase all 17 for about $125.60.
Eat Like a Gilmore Cookbook

Gilmore Girls superfan Kristi Carlson launched a Kickstarter campaign back in March to fill a Gilmore-diet-sized void in her (and our) lives. Carlson raised over $63,000 to create her unofficial cookbook, which contains over 100 recipes inspired by the show. Each recipe is labelled under one of three categories: Sookie’s Kitchen, Luke’s Diner and Emily’s Staff, making it easy to cook to your mood. Get ready to cook like you’re trying to impress Sookie.
Ice cream
Full disclosure: you’ll have to drive to Brooklyn if you really want to try Ample Hills Creamery’s Gilmore Girls-inspired ice cream. The shop, which hand-makes the dessert, held a contest last month asking fans for flavour and name ideas. The winner? “They Scoop Gilmores, Don’t They?” (referencing the infamous dance-marathon episode when Dean and Rory break up), a coffee, chocolate pudding ice cream with Snickerdoodles and pink Pop Tart sprinkles.
Funko Dolls
Coming Soon: Gilmore Girls, The Blacklist Pop!s! Head over to Funko.com for more details!

Soon, you’ll be able to bring Rory, Lorelai and Sookie home with you thanks to these adorable Funko Pop! figures. You can choose from three dolls: Rory dressed in her Chilton uniform, Lorelai with a Luke’s coffee cup and Sookie in her typical chef’s outfit. The figures will be available in stores and online in December.
T-shirts

Austin-based Kindred Handicrafts offers some 30 colourful GG-inspired tees to choose from. Our faves? Hep Alien (Lane’s band) one and one with Lorelai’s oft-quoted line, “Oy with the poodles already.” You can get your own for about $37.60, or make it a family affair with the e-store’s baby and toddler sizes.
Enamel Pins
Deck out your brand-new GG tees with these ultra-charming enamel pins from Heartificial. There are tons to choose from, including a Luke’s Diner logo and an “in omnia paratus” umbrella for Team Logan and Rory. There are even Rory and Lorelai pins that come in a two-pack, because, obviously, the Gilmore Girls can’t be separated.
