OUR VIBE THIS MONTH

While we do love the summer months, September has treated us pretty well too. With the milder weather and the cozy fall vibes just around the corner—think pumpkin spice, deep burgundy nails, and touches of burgundy—we're more than ready to embrace everything September has to offer.

WHAT MADE US SMILE
According to Marie Claire’s article, "Fall’s Biggest Hair Trends Take Inspiration From Paris and Copenhagen," maximalist hair accessories are here to stay this season. We couldn’t be more excited—it's such a fun way to elevate any outfit. And let’s just say, we’ve got something in the works, so stay tuned!

GO-TO PLACE

This month, our favorite spot is a cozy little gem in Amsterdam—BunBun. They serve the most irresistible, gooey bakes, with sweet and savory buns that are perfect for satisfying those cravings brought on by the cooler weather. Our top advise? Go with a friend and share a sweet and savoury BunBun.

GO-TO PRODUCTS

This month we're sharing some of our essentials for Fall.

	AGOLDE '90s - Pinch Waist Long High-Rise Straight-Leg Organic Jeans For fall, we love to reach for darker denim washes, especially those with a chic vintage vibe. Finding the right pair can be tricky, but we've got you covered. This pair from AGOLDE is crafted to look and feel just like a true vintage find. With a classic straight leg and high-rise waist, they're the perfect jeans for the season.
	ELF - Glow Reviver Lip Oil in Jam Session We’re loving the ELF lip oils for the colder months, especially in deeper shades. With nourishing ingredients, they keep your lips hydrated and smooth. Worried about burgundy tones? This shade flatters even the fairest skin, offering a soft wash of color for day, and for the evening, you can elevate the look by pairing it with a darker lip liner, like Charlotte Tilbury’s Pillow Talk in Medium, for a polished and sophisticated vibe.
	The Frankie Shop - Mavis Oversized Trench in Khaki Fall is officially here, which means trench coats are making a comeback—and so is the color khaki. This gem from The Frankie Shop is the perfect fall piece. Honestly, we don't mind the temperature dropping if it means we get to look this stylish!
	l'occitane almond shower oil If you know, you know. We thought this coveted shower oil might be overhyped, but after trying it, we found it lives up to the buzz. Its subtle almond scent and silky texture feel incredibly luxurious. Perfect for dry winter skin, it leaves you feeling soft and nourished. Plus, it’s versatile—you can use it for shaving or add it to your bath for an extra touch.
	MAC Kohl Liner in Costa Riche Is a cult favourite, especially for green-eyed girls—Maxime swears by it for making their eyes pop! The rich, warm brown is a softer alternative to black, offering a bold yet natural look. Its creamy texture glides on smoothly for easy blending, whether you prefer precise lines or a smoky finish. A must-have for any makeup routine, it's perfect for both daytime and evening.
