Another warm week (and month) has come to an end, and to celebrate I've pulled together a bumper Trend Trove to enjoy alongside this month's payday.
And when I say big, I mean big.
From fashion I'm lusting over to beauty treats I'm already obsessed with – not forgetting one or two bits to help cool you down in this hot weather (spoiler: One is a cooling blanket, the other is booze), this is a shopping expert's curated selection of must-have products to treat yourself to this week.
Less of a physical product and more of an unmissable experience, Le Creuset are offering you, yes you, the unique opportunity to celebrate their 100-year anniversary with the La Carte by Le Creuset dinner series.
This unique event goes beyond a typical dinner, bringing you an immersive culinary experience which includes a different chef's bespoke menu each night using the iconic Le Creuset classic Cast Iron, beautifully styled tablescapes, drink pairings and a special gift bag to take home.
It's giving supper club but loads better.
And if you've got festivals on the horizon but can't help feel distrusting of the UK weather (that hour-long rainstorm on Glasto day one was… a lot) then we've found the perfect festival layer to keep you dry and looking great.
Berghaus has dropped the iconic Concert Collection to get you geared up for festival season, and we're obsessed with the Meru Mountain Jacket, which was worn by Liam Gallagher himself during Oasis' 1997 world tour. More Trending
Truly iconic.
And for a bit of beauty newness, Skin Rocks has released its cult Gel Cleanser (my fav ever) in a whopping 250ml bottle, which is great because who doesn't love more product, right?
