5 things we loved this week

By Fashion Quarterly

Mahsa sets the mood; we discover our new favourite tennis shoe; The Facialist debuts their F.Sculpt facial workout; and Kate Spade and Naveya & Sloane inject a touch of romance into our week.

Naveya & Sloane Knots collection

1. Love me knot

Synonymous with unity and connection, Naveya & Sloane have centred their newest collection around a rather romantic symbol, the knot. Aptly titled Know Your Knots, this range pays homage to the brand’s longstanding tradition of featuring knots throughout their designs. Among the new offerings are two cocktail-style rings available in a variety of precious stones, alongside four personalisable styles, including a signet ring, pendant, and bangle, each of which feature an engraving plate to honour a special name or date. Made to be worn and treasured for years to come, these trinkets make perfect generational heirlooms or gifts for your significant other.

Mahsa Kin collection

2. Close-knit

Nothing boosts our midweek mood like a new capsule collection from Mahsa Willis’ namesake label. Inspired by the bond she shares with her sister Ella, and the love and support they provide each other through life, founder Mahsa Willis chose to title the collection Kin. The capsule features three of the brand’s most sought-after styles including the Bow Blouse, Everyday Blouse and Ruffle Blouse, reimagined in the highly requested hazel gingham, as well as a tea Swiss dot cotton and cotton voile. Each piece is mindfully crafted using premium organic materials and timeless trans-seasonal cuts, ensuring versatility year-round and effortless layering during cooler months.“We hope this capsule of thoughtfully curated pieces enhance your surroundings while contributing to a more conscious way of living,” says Willis.

The Facialist F.Sculpt treatments

3. Don’t sweat it

Having gained a loyal following for their bespoke holistic treatments, Auckland’s The Facialist has just added a new offering to its menu: F.Sculpt facial workouts. Transcending traditional facials, this treatment focuses on using cardio-mimicking massage combined with sculpting and lifting movements to strengthen and condition the facial muscles. Much like going to the gym helps to tone and sculpt the body, founder Ashleigh Scott endeavours to achieve similar results for the face through her new treatments: F.Sculpt (30 mins), F.Sculpt + (45 mins) and F.Sculpt Intense (60 mins). “You know that saying ‘do something today that tomorrow you will be thankful for’. This is it,” explains Scott. “For best results, consistency is key when it comes to skincare and these workouts. Whilst you’ll get real-time results from one appointment, you can see lasting results from regular sessions.” 

The new treatment menu is available to book from this week onwards at www.thefacialist.co.nz

PUMA Court Match Sneaker, Winnie Harlow

We love indulging in a little tenniscore, and whether you’re hitting the court or sporting your favourite pair of jeans, PUMA’s Cali Court Match sneakers serve as dependable and versatile companions in your footwear collection. Available in two sleek colourways, this chunky shoe draws on old-school tennis style, providing an elevated sporty touch to any ensemble.

Step into the whimsical world of Kate Spade with their latest fragrance: Chérie Eau De Parfum.

5. Mon chérie!

Few fragrance releases have turned our heads this year like the playful and oh-so-Parisian ‘Chérie Eau De Parfum‘ by Kate Spade. Created by renowned perfumer Louise Turner, it captures the spirit of joyful spontaneity, luminosity, and uplifting style with its combination of sweet florals, vibrant fruits, and ever so sensual woody musks. And, apparently, it’s not just our head it’s destined to turn. Inspired by a love story which unfolds along the promenade in Paris, Chérie is a romantic scent with a spell-binding fusion of Rose, Sweet Pea, and Jasmine Sambac forming an idyllic backdrop for your next love story. 

Available in three size options: 40ml ($77), 60ml ($111), and 100ml ($145), Kate Spade Chérie EDP is available to shop now from Farmers.
