These are for those afternoons at the beach bar or out shopping with friends when you want to show the world you’re shining.

Swatch x Omega Bioceramic Moonswatch Mission to Venus
They say women are from Venus, and I don’t know about that but if they are – this is the watch for them. The Swatch x Omega Bioceramic Moonswatch Mission to Venus was part of the incredible March release that saw Swatch stores around the world overwhelmed by eager brand fans.
The watch features pastel pink hues contrasted with beige and a white velcro strap, reminiscent of the pastel hues prominent on the surface of our neighbour Venus. The Swatch x Omega Mission to Venus (SO33P100) features pink hours, minutes, second, and counter hands, and Swatch calls the diamond-like details on the edges a “touch of feminine elegance.” The watch, like the others in the collection, also features quartz movement and is 3 bar water resistance.
Telfar Shopping Bag Medium Glue
Telfar was hot way before Beyoncé namechecked them on her latest album, but the co-sign from Queen Bey pushed the brand into a new stratosphere.
The Telfar Shopping Bag (Medium Glue) features vegan leather and a durable twill lining. It also comes with a double strap and has a main compartment that features a magnetic closure. On each side of the bag, you will see Telfar’s famous embossed logo, subtly rising from the fabric of the product. The colour is a soft yellow, perfect for the warmer months.
Louis Vuitton LV Initials Iconic Earrings
The Louis Vuitton LV Initials Iconic Earrings (gold) is the perfect LV accessory for any wardrobe. The shiny pair takes the form of LV initials crafted into miniature size studs. Who doesn’t love the symbol of style and sophistication of the instantly recognisable LV logo.
The Louis Vuitton LV Initials Iconic Earrings (gold) are 18-carat yellow gold stud earrings that are made in Italy. The studs are made from 100% 18-carat yellow gold with a polished finish, LV design, and post-back fastening.
Nike x Jacquemus La Robe Polo
Released as part of a wider Nike x Jacquemus collection at the end of June, the Nike x Jacquemus La Robe Polo is a fitted jersey dress with short sleeves and a buttonless polo collar. The cut out waist has an adjustable elastic strap. Amazingly, this dress is made with 96% recycled polyester, in a massive win for the planet.
Like the rest of the collection, this sold out instantly on release. The Nike collection is a great way to get into a modern French brand like Jacquemus at a more attractive price.
Comme des Garcons PLAY Red Emblem Heart T-shirt
Everyone has to have some CDG in their wardrobe, right? Right! The Comme des Garcons PLAY Red Emblem Heart T-shirt in white/pink is a perfect unisex design.
The CDG logo, which is embroidered, and the larger link with eyes, which is designed as a printed graphic, are the most prominent features of the shirt. The t-shirt has a straightforward, timeless appearance that tends to look minimalist. The t-shirt is made of 100 percent cotton and is available in pink and white. It also has short sleeves and a ribbed collar.
