Everything Poppy Sexton-Wainwright is Loving Right Now
*1. The Art*
I have a stunning painting by Heath Wae called Like Dew Drops on the Lotus – it's my favourite thing in my home because it makes such a statement. I bought it from my close friend, India Montgomery, who founded The Edition 94 and contemporary art gallery The Dot Project – she has an incredible eye.
*2. The Jeans*
I love denim and have always been a jeans girl but recently, I’ve become obsessed with Khaite jeans. They’re expensive, but I wear them all the time so the cost per wear must be pretty good. I’ve bought the Danielle jeans in three different colours – they’re the perfect fit and go with everything.
*3. The Jewellery*
Gold jewellery is my weakness. I rarely leave the house without adding some gold jewellery to finish off my look and my latest obsession is the brand By Pariah. I love their stacking rings and have a few I wear every day. I also like a gold chain – the gold trombone necklace by Lucy Delius is high on my wish list.
*4. The Book*
Every year I promise myself I will read more, but it doesn’t always happen. This summer I’m going away for a week with girlfriends child-free, so I’m hoping I’ll be able to finish a book! The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion is what I plan on taking with me.
*5. The Beauty Essentials*
I don’t tend to wear a lot of make-up, but I do invest in skincare – I really notice a difference when I use the right products. My essentials include the Sisley black rose face mask, Irene Forte’s Rich Night Cream and the Charlotte Tilbury primer with SPF50. It took a lot of experimenting to find these hero products, but I couldn’t be without any of them now.
*6. The Co-Ord*
Co-ords are big news this season and I love how easy they are to dress up or down. We just launched this blue and white striped poplin co-ord in a new cotton/silk material and I’m living in it – easy and comfortable around the house, but good enough to wear out too.
*7. The Escape*
I’m going to Mallorca at the end of July for a friend’s wedding and we’re staying at Finca Serena just outside Palma – which has long been on my bucket list. It’s set among some stunning vineyards and the food and wine look incredible.
*8. The Bag*
I don't often buy bags but when I do, I invest. I use my Celine Bucket Bag every day because it fits everything I need –laptop, diary, fabric swatches and snacks for the kids. I have my eye on The Row Slouchy Banana bag next. It’s the perfect size for an evening out and the leather is impossibly soft.
*9. The Colour*
Right now I can’t get enough of bright pink – or, more specifically, bubblegum pink. Recently, we reimagined our classic linen suit in this feminine colour – just in time for the release of Greta Gerwig’s Barbie film. Trust me, it’s the colour of the summer.
*10. The Routine*
I love a night-time routine. At the moment, mine is a Pilates class followed by a Monkey 47 gin and tonic and a bath, before a five-minute meditation in bed with my Asceno eye mask on – 99% of the time I’m asleep before it’s over.
*11. The Gadget*
As a skincare junkie it should come as no surprise to hear I’m into all the gadgets, too. I just bought an LED facemask from NET-A-PORTER and I’m excited to see the results. It’s definitely a trend I’m willing to try.
*12. The Hobby*
I’m determined to get back into playing tennis regularly. I have two new outfits from Varley and Alex Eagle – so at least I look the part.
*13. The Workout*
I like to pretend that I live in the sunshine and do Fluidform at Home three times a week. I love that can choose 15-20-minute workouts, which is usually all I can face. I wish that was followed by a swim at the Bondi Icebergs, but alas no…
*14. The Interiors*
I love finding fresh interiors inspiration. Currently I’m loving anything by Rose Uniacke – she is the epitome of effortless style. I try to inject a little of bit of her aesthetic into my home where I can.
*15. The Shoe*
I live in flats – there’s no other option when you’re constantly running around after the kids or for work. I love a cool trainer and I have my eye on these adidas ones, which I know will go with everything in my wardrobe.
