THE COLLABS

Adanola x Kendall Jenner

When it comes to off-duty model style, Kendall Jenner is the blueprint. That’s why her curated edit with Adanola, the UK-based activewear brand, just makes sense. The collection features minimalist staples, including sports bras, leggings, sweats, and separates—AKA, the pieces Kendall practically lives in. With Adanola’s cult favourite quality and affordability, this collab is set to sell out fast.

Heaven Mayhem x Real Fine Studio

Fine jewellery, but make it sustainable. Heaven Mayhem, known for its cool yet refined aesthetic, is venturing into fine jewellery with Real Fine Studio. The collection is all about accessible luxury, featuring a tennis necklace, bracelet, and stud earrings, all crafted with sustainability in mind. Bonus: Prices start at under £200—finally, a guilt-free splurge.

THE PRODUCTS

Rhode Peptide Lip Shape

Rhode’s latest drop is here to reshape the lip game. Blurring the lines between liner and skincare, Peptide Lip Shape is designed to enhance volume, define shape, and nourish—all in one swipe. It’s creamier than a liner, longer-lasting than a balm, and packed with active ingredients. Hailey Bieber, you’ve done it again.

Lexxola Jet-Setter Sunglasses Case

Lexxola just made travelling with sunglasses a luxury experience. The hardbound vegan leather case fits three pairs of sunnies and comes with a soft pouch for other essentials. If you’re always on the move (or just like to switch up your shades on the daily), this case is a must.

THE LAUNCHES

Nude Project’s First Full Womenswear Collection

Spanish streetwear brand Nude Project is making major moves. Known for its Playboy collabs and gender-neutral designs, the brand is now launching a 50-piece womenswear collection that blends street style with femininity. Think: graphic baby tees, cropped sweatshirts, cowboy-inspired denim, and form-fitting silhouettes.

To mark the occasion, Nude Project tapped Victoria de Marichalar and Belén Esteban—two Spanish icons from completely different worlds—to star in the campaign, proving that this collection is for every kind of woman.

REFY Steps into Skincare

What started as a viral brow brand has now evolved into a full beauty powerhouse. REFY, co-founded by Jess Hunt and Jenna Meek, is expanding into skincare with a Face Cleanse and Face Sculpt moisturiser. Why now? According to Meek: “We’re always looking for the perfect prep to go alongside our makeup products... Skincare is an overwhelming space, so we wanted to simplify it—two steps, amazing ingredients, and results you can see.”

With REFY’s cult following and minimalistic aesthetic, expect these products to dominate the “clean girl” skincare routine in no time.
