The Five | 15
A curated selection of items I’m loving right now — from wardrobe staples and everyday essentials to beauty must-haves, and more.
01
Fuchsia Shaw | ‘Arden’ Coat
This brand popped up on my explore page a little while back, and while scrolling I discovered this jacket on founder Amy Shaw and had to have it! It’s such a gorgeous buttery yellow (a shade that is definitely having a moment) and perfect for spring. I love the shape of it and it looks great open or closed — the funnel neck is so good.
02
Alaïa | Logo Flat-Top Sunglasses
I have A LOT of sunglasses, but this Alaïa pair just launched and I’m seriously considering them. You can’t deny the sharp statement these frames would make. I naturally gravitate toward sunglasses that elevate even the simplest outfit and add an edge of confidence and cool.
03
New Methods for Women | Sharmadean Reid
After our recent chat (see below), I must get my hands on Sharmadean’s book. She’s incredibly inspiring and has achieved so much, from building her brand to mentoring others and redefining what it means to succeed on your own terms. I can already tell it’s the kind of book I’ll keep coming back to for insight, guidance, and a dose of motivation whenever I need it.
This week, paid subscribers received My Evening Skincare Routine (Step-by-Step) — the highly requested nighttime ritual I swear by for healthy, clear, glowing skin.
04
CELINE | Ballet Lace-Up Shoe
I’ve been thinking about these CELINE shoes ever since I tried them in black (and white) in their Bond Street store recently. I’m picturing them with cropped trousers, maybe a playful sock, and a relaxed, oversized shirt. I also love how they look with jeans and a trench in the campaign shots. I saw the jeans in store and am tempted by them too… In fact there are so many pieces I have my eye on!
05
Marsèll | ‘Diessepi’ Leather Clutch
I’ve been loving this black Marsèll clutch so much that I’ve convinced myself I need a similar style in a neutral for spring and summer. The sleek, minimalist shape goes with everything, effortlessly paired with lighter, breezier outfits, and it’s the perfect day-to-night bag.
I’m especially drawn to the ‘Diessepi’ clutch for its gorgeous hourglass silhouette and the concealed zip — a detail I enjoy that keeps the look clean.
Until next time,
