Love List // What's Hot & In Our Shopping Cart This Month - August 2025

August is here – the month where our calendars are full, the heat is high, and our shopping baskets are bursting with things that make life a little brighter, cooler, and more fun.

Think easy-breezy fashion staples that take you from rooftop evenings to last-minute beach escapes, beauty buys that promise glow even in the humidity, and wellness picks that help us recharge before September’s hustle.

This month, we’re curating the must-haves that are setting trends, sparking conversations, and slipping effortlessly into our everyday lives. From the latest cult skincare drops to home pieces that bring joy, here’s what’s hot (literally and figuratively) and what we’re loving right now.

• A new season iconic bag from Delvaux

Our eyes are firmly open for a new season bag and this could be a top contender. Crafted in Belgium since 1829, each Delvaux creation marries time-honoured savoir-faire with contemporary elegance, a tribute to women who lead with grace and strength. From the emblematic La Tempête to the versatile Pin family, every piece is made from the world’s finest leathers, designed to be treasured for generations.

• Rodial Lip Oil

Rodial's new hybrid lip oil elevates your lip care routine by delivering dewy moisture and UV protection with each application. This formula forms a protective barrier upon contact, shielding lips from the sun's harmful rays while also repairing and soothing them. We never tried a Rodial product we didn't love!

• Dreamy Athleisurewear from VAARA

VAARA London’s elevated athleisure brand is now available at The Dubai EDITION and it's firmly on our wishlist as we head into the new Dubai season. From eco-seamless sets to finely crafted wardrobe essentials, each piece blends understated design with performance-driven Italian fabrics, offering a tactile, breathable and endlessly wearable fit. These are pieces designed for women who move from boardroom to Barre, from school run to seaside without ever compromising on style or substance.

• Truss Haircare

Meet Truss, the Brazilian hair care powerhouse that’s been turning heads in over 35 countries for more than two decades. Known for its salon-caliber performance and sleek presentation, this brand has become a favourite among beauty professionals and consumers alike. We recently discovered this brand in Dubai whilst having a blowdry and we're SOLD. Find it at PH7.

• Rosie Slip Maxi Dress from NeverFullyDressed

The new season is out from NFD and we're diving right in. Feel-good dressing at its finest.
