Chanel’s Moiré nail lacquers arrive this week



Chanel-Rouge-Moire-Rose-Moire

Chanel’s moiré-effect nail colours are getting a lot of love and they’re not even out yet!

Buy it now: Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Cream Shadow Stick



Bobbi-Bown-Bittersweet

Bobbi Brown’s Long-Wear Cream Shadow Stick (£20) has got to be one of the best chunky eye pencils around. The twist-up round-tipped crayon is the perfect thickness for rush hour application – just blend with a clean finger. I’ve been trialling Bittersweet, a limited edition everyday mocha from the new Rich Chocolate collection. It’s billed as a shadow or a smudgy liner but I think it’s a bit fiddly as a liner. As a long-lasting smoky shadow though, it’s foolproof.

Buy it here and here.



Gwyneth Leech for Anthropologie: 1001 coffee cup stories



This is such a lovely idea from Anthropologie. I saw it on Instagram and I’m miffed I didn’t make it down during the London Design Festival while it was happening in London…

Buy Burberry’s SS14 runway coats now



Burberry-Prorsum-ss14-coats

Burberry showed a lot of coats on it’s Spring-Summer 2014 runway. Of course, they were light spring coats, not heavy wool ones. And they were knitted, rather than waterproofs.

As is Burberry’s way, you can order these now online, meaning they will work for autumn as well as spring.

Here are three of my favourites – you have until September 30th to get your order in:
