Fashions Finest

In an age where trends swing like a pendulum between maximalism and minimalism, there is something captivating about "quiet luxury" jewellery.

Magnetic, moody, and impossible to ignore. Accessories step into the shadow with dark jewellery twisting sophistication with a generous dose of mystery and boldness.

Taiwanese designer RAY CHU brought the beauty and sustainability of the natural world to the catwalk of London with "The Eternal Resilience of Blue Cypress", his Autumn/Winter 2025 collection.

The beautiful complexity of the dual sign Gemini inspired Helen Anthony's Autumn/Winter 2025 men's and women's ready-to-wear collection.

For years, dealing with your period meant relying on the same disposable products you grew up with: pads, tampons, maybe a menstrual cup if you felt adventurous. What about period underwear?

Following the success of the Autumn/Winter 2024/25 capsule collection, Alexa Chung and Barbour have just released the second part of "The Edit by Alexa".

If you have kept up with your New Year's well-being resolutions and started walking or exercising more, well done. Now it is time to plan your post-workout.

Physical activity works wonders, but what comes after is equally important. These post-workout must-haves will boost the benefits of your routine.


Post-Exercise Must-Try Products

The dopamine rush that follows a good workout or some light exercises makes you feel instantly energised, happy and satisfied – after all, switching to an active lifestyle is a rewarding achievement.

You may drink plenty of water but this is not enough to fully recover when you lose fluids and essential minerals as you sweat. Fatigue and cramps are common side effects of intense or long workouts at the gym or at home, this is why taking care of your body after exercising is so important.

These must-try products from Wildsmith and Bare Biology will refresh and rebalance your skin, replenish your body, and provide the nutrient your mind needs to be bright and reactive, so you will be ready for the next session after a good night's sleep.

Bare Biology Ready & Rested Magnesium Supplements

Bare Biology Supplements for women

The brand new Bare Biology Ready & Rested is a magnesium supplement in capsule ideal for active lifestyles, thanks to the approved and scientifically proven health benefits of magnesium in supporting muscle function and recovery.

The formula Ready & Rested contains magnesium bisglycinate, a chelated form bound with glycine which allows for superior absorption and minimal digestive upset. Three capsules a day deliver 375mg, 100% of your daily needs. In food, this is 12 bananas, 9 cups of kale, or 4 tins of chickpeas!

Adding magnesium to your diet following a new routine is beneficial because magnesium can:

  • reduce tiredness and fatigue,
  • support energy metabolism, nervous system function, and psychological health,
  • contribute to bone and muscle health, including heart function,
  • help maintain healthy teeth and support cell division processes,
  • support muscle function and recovery by replenishing what is lost through sweat.

Bare Biology Ready & Rested Magnesium Bisglycinate Capsules are available online at Barebiology.com in two purchase options: as a one-time purchase (£34.99) or via subscription (£29.74) with customisable delivery time.
