The Cool Collab:
Peggy Gou For Beauty Of Joseon
If you’ve been on K-beauty TikTok, you already know Beauty of Joseon’s Day Dew Sunscreen is the latest SPF the girlies are obsessing over – and now, Korean DJ and producer Peggy Gou has been named the brand’s global ambassador. Starring in its horse girl-inspired shoot for its ‘Not Our First Rodeo’ campaign, Peggy’s images tap into her signature dark-feminine aesthetic and the product’s glowy, skin-first finish.

The New Pop Era:
Sabrina Carpenter: Man’s Best Friend
Sabrina Carpenter is riding a major wave – and her next album, Man’s Best Friend, promises to keep the momentum going. Following the mega-success of Short N’ Sweet, which spent five weeks at number one in the UK, Sabrina returns with ‘Manchild’, a sharp, synth-heavy single full of wit, edge and perfect pop production. She's already gone viral for bringing out Earth, Wind & Fire at Lollapalooza, and the Man’s Best Friend visuals – controversial artwork and all – are only adding to the buzz.

The Pre-Fall Drop:
Damson Madder 'The Waiting Room'
Damson Madder’s pre-fall collection, The Waiting Room, sees the brand move away from the playful, colour-splashed vibe of high summer, and into something softer, moodier and quietly elevated. Expect earthy tones, preppy stripes, deep burgundy prints and a new popcorn-smocking technique that adds texture to otherwise classic shapes. There’s a standout wide-leg culotte, an oversized olive trench and co-ords that double up as layering pieces.

The Foodie Launch:
Ace Pizza
ACE Pizza has officially opened its first standalone restaurant. Known for its hybrid style – think the chew of Neapolitan dough and the structure of a New York slice – ACE Pizza has already earned a cult following at The Pembury Tavern. Now, founder Rachel Jones has channelled nostalgia and comfort into every detail of the new site – from the 80s diner interiors to topping combos like chilli honey, Texas ‘beef’ and vodka penne. Add in natural wines, disco margs and a tiramisu made with Dark Arts Coffee, and this might be your new favourite spot.

The Campaign Crush:
Tom Holland For Prada Beauty
It’s official – Tom Holland is the new face of Prada Beauty and the campaign is full of laidback charisma. Shot in a mix of behind-the-scenes candids and relaxed portraits, the visuals tap into Tom’s off-screen charm – spontaneous, understated but quietly cool. It’s all about showcasing beauty through a lens of self-expression rather than performance. There are puppies. There are side glances. There’s a very Prada sense of ease. Expect to see this campaign all over your feed.

The Scandi Girl Essential:
CAIA x ROTATE
CAIA and ROTATE have teamed up to launch an exclusive drop at Copenhagen Fashion Week. The four-piece capsule includes a creamy lip gloss, two lip liners shade-matched via “nipple theory” (yes, really), a clean amber fragrance and a structured satin beauty case that doubles up as a clutch. It’s the kind of high-low, barely-there-but-put-together look the Scandis do best. Chic, confident, wearable – and definitely cool enough for your next night out.

The Celebrity Drop:
Drake ‘Summer Mink’
Drake has officially launched ‘Summer Mink’, his first UK fragrance under Better World Fragrance House. Made in partnership with Givaudan perfumer Michael Carby, it’s a unisex eau de parfum that blends creamy musk with spice, florals and a warm ambery base. Packaged in a midnight blue orb and displayed on a sculptural stand, it’s equal parts scent and interior flex.

The Football Fan Fit:
Crocs x Lirian Santos
Crocs has achieved cult status in recent years – and its latest campaign proves it’s more than just quirky footwear. Teaming up with English-Brazilian freestyle footballer Lirian Santos, the brand is celebrating the growing female football fandom in a campaign that’s full of personality. Set at a backyard BBQ, Santos hosts a laidback watch party in her Crocs Classic Clogs, complete with custom Jibbitz and cultural flair. It’s a love letter to community, football and self-expression – timely, given England’s recent win at the Euros.

They’re available now at Selfridges and online.

The New Formula:
Urban Decay All Nighter Spray
You’d be hard pressed to find a beauty fan who hasn’t used Urban Decay’s original All Nighter setting spray. But now, it’s been reformulated to last up to 24 hours (beating the previous 16), with a finer mist and a refreshing cooling effect. Best of all? There are now two new finish options: glowy and matte. Whether you’re heading to work or a summer festival, it’s still the ultimate insurance policy for your make-up.
