Hot List: Here’s what’s new in your favourite stores and online this week

FRAME has teamed up with the ever-stylish—and seriously cool—Julia Sarr-Jarmois to create an exclusive collection for an elevated summer wardrobe. As you’d expect, the collection is awash with a smart colour palette: khaki, burgundy and orange and colour pops with tie-dye and IMHO it’s not going to stick around for long, so make sure you act fast. 

It seems our obsession with raffia is going nowhere. We love the elevated leather straps and detailing of the Voyou basket bag from Givenchy, 

The first-ever rental platform dedicated to luxury bridal wear has launched.  Brides everywhere have the opportunity to wear pieces that may have previously been thought unattainable—and at a fraction of the cost. 

We’re deep in summer wardrobe planning mode and this shirt by way of A Days March x Lisa Larsson with its relaxed fit and super cute illustration detailing, has made it onto the wish list.  

Our go-to summer sandals brand, Ancient Greek Sandals, has just launched a Bridal collection. We’re into the ‘Aristide’ (pictured) which are perfect for dancing the night away. 

You can never go wrong with a trench coat and this one from Alphatauri is not only waterproof but with its sleek lines and neat proportions is stylish too. 

Beauty lovers, this one is for you! From 111SKIN to Augustinus Bader, Volume 1 of the Browns Beauty Box is packed with exclusives and cult skin heroes at a fraction of the original price. 

We’re loving this Mother hoody, created by Konnoi as a fundraising initiative for UK Environmental charities and action groups (Client Earth). There’s also some pretty cool T-shirts too, for Earth Day, so get into it!

The second instalment of Lanvin’s ‘Character Studies’ is here. Lensed by Steven Meisel, ‘Modern Heroes’ is the embodiment of ‘le chic ultime’—a concept that literally means ‘the ultimate chic’.

For Spring 2023, the iconic Hearst silhouettes—the Nina, Demi and Diana—have been reworked and reimagined in new colour ways and treatments, from blue to orange.

If you love hair accessories, then you need to know about Katya. Founded by the incredibly chic, Kate Iorga, we fell in love with the brand and Collection 1 at first sight. The KATYA Crystal Rose Collection 2 —as expertly modelled by Alva Claire—has dropped, so you can expect more covetable and super cool hair accessories. 

We love a good candle here at MC and IMHO they don’t get much better than this. The Diptyque City Candle collection celebrates cities around the world and now, there’s a new one in the mix, Seoul with hypnotic notes of spice and woods.  For a limited time only (20th - 26th April), the complete 10-piece collection is available for purchase, so you better act fast. 

The second phase of the Balmain x evian partnership features an exciting collection of ready-to-wear clothing and accessories. 

Wilderness (a brand that has pioneered conversation in Africa). has teamed up with Sealand to create a limited edition collection of handmade, upcycled bags—and most importantly—stylish bags. 

Fashion fans, Jakke SS23 is here and we couldn’t be more excited. With inspiration taken from David Hockney’s ‘A Bigger Splash’, the first ever ready-to-wear collection features graphic stripes, neat proportions and exciting colours. 

No, you’re not seeing things. That really is a penis-shaped lipstick. We’ve supported the super-talented Isamaya Ffrench since day one and there are no two ways about it—she is one of the best in the game. The Sheer Lipstick balm is enriched with vitamin E, so it actually hydrates your lips, and it can be layered for a truly impressive colour payoff. 

A new take on the cat-eye, these are chunky with a squared edge and thick arm. We’re into it.

Check out the exclusive womenswear rental edit at the Flannels store on Oxford Street. Curated by Leah Abbot, you’ll find brands such as Mulger, Coperni and The Attico. 

The limited edition Zara SPRLS collection is here and it’s full of elegant and timeless wardrobe hits in a neutral colour palette. We’ve added several items to our baskets already but if we had to leave with just one, it’d be this knotted halter neck top with chic button detailing. 

Just one look at the Peekaboo with its sleek silhouette and clean, strong and minimal hardware will ensure an attraction so deep, that it’ll be at the very top of your wishlist until you get your hands on it. 

Plus, it comes in several colour ways and treatments (from braided leather to padded nappa and from beige to pink, so there really is something for even the most discerning bag lovers. 

Yes, it’s pricey, but this investment piece will stand the test of time and be worn for years to come and passed onto the future bag lovers of the world. 

There’s a reason this sells out all the time. This bodysuit from Commando really is great. Not only is it super comfortable but super flattering and versatile too. A complete winner. 

Our go-to accessories brand Manu Atelier has just dropped a new style. The Papillon Clutch (Cyclamen Suede with Crystals pictured) comes in several colourways and is equal parts chic and fun. 

It’s strange to admit that we’re obsessed with a bowl, but here we are. This one, part of the Portuguese table collection from Muji, is the perfect size, weight and looks great on your dinner table. 

Our favourite collaboration this week comes courtesy of Mejuri and Luar, the fashion-forward accessories brand. We’re rather taken with the convertible hoops that make it easy to switch up your look. 

I’ve been keeping my brows in excellent condition, thanks to the Grow Strong Brow Oil from Mauli. Brows are kept glossy and lustrous with a nourishing blend of jojoba, argan and sesame oil. 

Quite possibly the most fun collaboration of 2023, Sandro has collaborated with Louis Barthélemy to create a capsule collection full of fun wearable pieces from printed totes and scarfs to statement shirts and trousers. 

Sam McKnight’s Cool Girl collection was inspired by and created specifically for Kate Moss, so, we’re sold. Simply add 2 to 3 pumps before blow drying for fuller, thicker and smoother hair. 

Okay, hear me out. I get that this is a lot of money to pay for toothpaste, but it’s really quite good. The refreshing and exciting flavour (cinnamon, orange & peppermint) really is quite exceptional and leaves your mouth super clean and supremely fresh. 

The second instalment of Wandler’s Ready-to-wear is here. It’s packed with wardrobe hits, so everything fits seamlessly into your current wardrobe and will stand the test of time, too. Think sculptural and clean silhouettes—Electra Jacket, we’re looking at you—and the most perfect pair of tailored trousers.

A mainstay of my skincare routine, IMHO, this is the ultimate way to amp up my skin’s defences against all kinds of environmental aggressors (pollution, smoke, infrared radiation etc). 

The ‘Bird of Paradise’ collection from Alexandra Miro is awash with striking prints and vibrant colours.  If you’re after the perfect coverup, look no further. When it comes to throw-it-on-and-go poolside wear, it doesn’t get much chicer.

The search for the perfect sweater is over. Allow us to introduce, The Perfect V, by way of Aethel—purveyors of luxury knitwear—is sleek, has the perfect proportions, feels great and really does go with everything. 

I’ve been using this for the last few weeks and have found that it seriously calms my skin. It’s formulated with Reishi, Chaga and Cordyceps mushrooms, which have been known to help soothe irritation. It glides on perfectly and actually soaks up into the skin. Big thumbs up from me. 

We’re fans of Blaize Caprice: a new and considered brand creating a capsule of timeless—and seriously stylish—clothing. From the Theo Tuxedo Dress to the Elias trousers, versatility, quality and longevity reign supreme. 

A look back at 10 years worth of incredible imagery and clothing from FRAME—one of our go-to brands. 

With its tough gold hardware and structured silhouette, the Jewelled Hobo, by way of Alexander McQueen, is one of this season’s most exciting bags. Packed full of personality, the cuff is embellished with 100% Swarovski crystals. It comes in several colourways (from blue to red) but if we’d have to choose, we’d opt for the timelessness of the black and gold combo. 

The Disney x Karl collection is one of our favourite—and most anticipated—collaborations of 2023. From crossbody bags to sweatshirts and T-shirt’s all emblazoned with the Karl and Daffy logo, there is something for everyone. Our pick of the bunch would be the super fun—and chic—half-shoulder bag.

The first slip-on trainer from Baudoin & Lange comes in a range of paired back neutrals—think oatmeal and pebble—as well as timeless colours such as black and white. They are the sort of thing you can just throw on and go, knowing that they’ll compliment whatever you’re wearing but that you’ll be super comfortable all day. 

We’re obsessed leather fringe and braiding on the Penelope, the latest addition to the line of covetable Chloé bags. 

The Essential Sleep Set contains three Cowshed classics, the Sleep Bath Salts, Sleep Candle and Sleep Calming Pillow Mist, aka everything you need for a restless night. 

With its contemporary shape and exciting colour ways, the Gummy Bag from Emporio Armani is the perfect way to inject some fun and colour into your wardrobe. 

Formulated for dehydrated skin, expect all the skin-quenching and plumping properties of the Cicaplast range. With two types of Hyaluronic acid—so that it travels deeper beneath the skin—this serum left my thirsty skin feeling softer and hydrated. 

To celebrate 35 years of collaboration, A.P.C and Liberty London have created a capsule collection made entirely of Liberty prints.

Packed with a host of nourishing ingredients—vitamins B3, B12 and C, adaptogens and fungi extracts—the new Skin Pearls from Herbar could be the answer to glowing skin. 

Fans of bright and green floral scents will absolutely fall for the new Bloom hand wash from Kankan with notes of citrusy bergamot, fresh zingy neroli and soothing smooth chamomile.

We love the juxtaposition of clean lines and contrasting iconic Serpenti hardware on the new Serpenti Baia shoulder bag. The attention to detail is what makes this bags design so successful: the snakehead magnetic clasp has one of the most satisfying snaps known to man, and if you look closely, you’ll see an intricate design with green enamel, gold scales and black onyx eyes—just divine.
