I Used to Work at World Market, Here Are The Items I’ll Always Recommend
Despite working many retail jobs in the past, I think my favorite one has to be World Market. I worked there part-time while in college, attending my Zoom classes during the day and heading to the store in the afternoon and on the weekends to clock in for my shifts. I was only there for a little bit shy of a year, but I still find myself romanticizing that time of my life to this day. Call me biased, but I mean, who wouldn’t want to work there? I was surrounded by a constantly rotating collection of fun products, worked with an all-women team, and the company’s playlist was literally perfect (Taylor Swift’s cardigan and Lana del Rey’s Love? It was like I plugged in my own phone to the store’s aux).
I saw every season change at World Market and was able to get very familiar with their top-selling items and popular furniture picks. I also picked up a lot of items with that sweet discount of mine, and they’re all still going strong four years later. Between my dining chairs, desk chair, throw pillows, utensils, rugs, and seasonal decor, I would say that half of my place is furnished by World Market to this day.
While it has been a while since I’ve worked there, every time I visit, I’m transported right back to the times I’d wander the aisles and happily organize products and help customers load furniture into their cars. If you’re not familiar with World Market, let this be your sign to start getting acquainted. As a former employee, I’ve got all my recommendations for their tried and true best-sellers below.
The World Market Products I’ll Always Recommend
Kitchen Essentials
Icon glasses are all the rage right now, and World Market’s version of them are luckily always in stock. Our editors love to collect them throughout the different seasons for a fun way to spice up their afternoon iced coffees. Read our review of them here!
Bathroom Decor
I would always recommend this Bamboo Bath Mat to customers looking to add something different to their bathroom. It’s a chic way to catch water after a shower, easier to maintain than a bath rug, and brings a natural touch to your bathroom.
Furniture
If there’s one item that stands out against all World Market products, it’s the Papasan Chair. The base and cushions are sold separately, so you can easily replace one or the other when needed. It’s an incredibly comfortable chair and adds the perfect spot to curl up and read a book to any room.

Home Accents and Decor
Whenever we’d get seasonal shipments in, the faux flower selections would be one of the first to sell out. World Market’s faux flowers are high quality (I’ve had mine for years!) and add the perfect little accessory to any room with no effort at all.
Accessories
World Market’s clothing selection is small, but boy does it have some eye-catching pieces. I particularly loved the different robes offered in fun floral patterns. They make for a great gift or a little treat-yourself moment.
Seasonal Items
World Market’s Icon Glasses also come in fun seasonal patterns. From ghosts to pumpkins to skulls, your Halloween parties just got 10 times better.
