The Five | by Alice Betts
This week, The Five is guest-edited by Alice Betts — a former dancer turned fashion insider — sharing what she’s loving right now, from wardrobe staples to beauty must-haves, and more.
01
The Artist’s Way | Julia Cameron
This year I wanted to go back to writing by hand and thought this book would be a great motivator. I love this book because it’s incredibly inspiring (at times confronting), but it encourages you to actively participate in activities each day and each week that help you to tap into and channel your creativity.
02
MAC | ‘Stone’ Lip Liner
I’m definitely having a 90s makeup moment right now, and I’m late to the game here, but I only recently discovered this lip liner and now can’t stop using it. It’s the perfect cool toned 90s brown that I love to use to create a Nina Park lip look. I pair it with the MAC lipstick Taken to finish the look.
03
KATT FORE | ‘Dyan’ Pump
I fell in love with these Katt Fore boots and she’s just launched the Dyan pump for Spring, which looks absolutely perfect! I love her designs because they feel classic and modern at the same time, and all her products are handmade in Italy so the quality is to die for <3
04
VT Cosmetics | PDRN Daily Mask
I love these Korean PDRN face masks because they come in a big multipack of 30. They keep my skin looking fresh (and I feel a bit like my favourite Issy Wood painting when I have one on).
In case you missed it: a curated selection of items I’m loving right now — from wardrobe staples and everyday essentials to beauty must-haves, and more.
05
G.A.T. | The Midori Sour Cocktail
I feel like colourful cocktails are having a comeback. I love going for a cheeky cocktail hour on a Sunday to make the day more fun. Everyone loves dry martinis, but I’m here for the more crazy ones like this bright green Midori Sour they serve at my new favourite bar in Stockholm, G.A.T.
