Trinny London FEARLESS Skin Tint Drops

Trinny London FEARLESS Skin Tint Drops trinny woodall luminary mothers what we love this week beauty picks autumn

Trinny London FEARLESS Skin Tint Drops, £45

We’re always drawn to makeup that makes skin look better without making it look like you’re wearing lots of makeup, and Trinny London’s new FEARLESS Skin Tint Drops feel very much in that sweet spot. Designed to give weightless, buildable medium coverage with a softly luminous finish, they’re made with 58% skincare ingredients and are specifically formulated to move with the skin rather than settle into fine lines.

We especially love the idea of getting the coverage of a foundation with the lighter, fresher feel of a skin tint, particularly as we head into autumn and want skin to look polished but still like skin. Available in 30 shades and priced at £45, this is definitely one of those new beauty launches we’re excited to try. Find it here.

HUSH Ana Distressed Leather Jacket

HUSH Ana Distressed Leather Jacket, £365

We’ve officially entered leather jacket season, and HUSH’s Ana Distressed Leather Jacket is exactly the kind we want to throw on with everything right now. The washed brown leather gives it that perfectly worn-in, vintage feel from day one, while the relaxed, slightly boxy shape keeps it looking effortless rather than overly polished. We can already see it over denim and a white tee, layered with knitwear, or thrown over a dress as the temperatures start to drop. One of those pieces that only gets better the more you wear it. Find it here.

Astley Clarke x Laura Jackson Statement Link Necklace

Astley Clarke x Laura Jackson Statement Link Necklace, £295

We’re always drawn to jewellery that feels collected rather than overly styled, which is exactly why Astley Clarke’s collaboration with Laura Jackson caught our eye. The Statement Link Necklace is one of our favourite pieces from the collection. Bold enough to make an outfit feel instantly more interesting, but still easy enough to wear on repeat.

We love the mix of gold and silver, the chunky link detail and the tiny white sapphire star accents, which give it that slightly unexpected, vintage-found feel. It’s the kind of necklace we’d throw over a simple tee, shirt or knit and let it do all the work. Find it here.

Pleasure by Emma-Louise Boynton

Pleasure by Emma-Louise Boynton luminary mothers what we love this week book picks autumn fall winter 2026

Pleasure by Emma-Louise Boynton, £20

This is one of those books that feels incredibly relevant for women right now. Pleasure by Emma-Louise Boynton is part memoir, part cultural investigation, exploring why so many women feel disconnected from their bodies, desire and intimacy, and what it can take to find that connection again. Boynton combines her own experience with expert interviews and wider cultural analysis to look at everything from beauty standards and ageing to dating, sex and the pressure women often feel to perform rather than simply feel.

We love that it approaches a subject that can still feel surprisingly difficult to talk about with honesty, curiosity and no shame attached. Thought-provoking, intimate and genuinely important, it feels like the kind of book that could spark some very good conversations with friends, partners and, perhaps most importantly, with ourselves. Find it here.

Fara Homidi Essential Blonzer Compact

Fara Homidi Essential Blonzer Compact luminary mothers what we love this week beauty picks trends autumn winter 2026

Fara Homidi Essential Blonzer Compact, £74

We’re always interested in makeup that can do more than one thing, and Fara Homidi’s Essential Blonzer Compact feels like such a clever one. Sitting somewhere between a blush and bronzer, it gives cheeks that warm, softly flushed look that makes skin instantly feel more alive, especially useful as we move into the colder months and lose a little of that natural summer colour.

We also love that it feels a bit different from the usual blush-and-bronzer routine. The texture is ultra-smooth and cream-like, with a soft matte finish that still looks incredibly natural on the skin. Exactly the kind of product that makes getting ready feel quicker, easier and a little more interesting. Find it here.


RUE de VERNEUIL Club Tote

RUE de VERNEUIL Club Tote luminary mothers what we love this week fashion trends bags chanel hermes

RUE de VERNEUIL Club Tote, £300

We’ve got a bit of a thing for the RUE DE VERNEUIL’s Club Tote right now. The burgundy flannel feels so right for autumn, while the elongated shape gives it that effortless, tucked-under-the-arm look that instantly makes an outfit feel cooler. It’s polished without being too precious, and the mix of flannel, webbing and leather gives it just enough texture to stand out.

We can already see it with denim, loafers and an oversized knit, exactly the kind of bag that quietly pulls an autumn look together. Find it here.

COS Red Leather Ballet Flats

COS Red Leather Ballet Flats luminary mothers what we love this week shoe trends autumn winter ballet flats

COS Red Leather Ballet Flats, £95

We’re not quite ready to give up on flats just yet, and these COS leather ballet flats feel like the perfect pair to take into autumn. Simple, understated and incredibly easy to wear, they have that clean COS feel that somehow makes even the most basic outfit look more polished. We’d wear them now with denim and a white shirt, then later with tailored trousers, knitwear and an oversized coat. Find them here.
