The best and worst in fashion this week: Sanctuary Spa, Selfie Stick, Converse and Givenchy
What we love, we're buying and we're not sure about... from skincare, to footwear
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.We love… Skin sanctuary
When a product comes with the preface ‘wonder’, it really ought to do something special. Sanctuary Spa’s Wonder Oil Serum does, blending the deep moisture of oil and the nourishing benefits of a serum, minus any greasy finish. £19.50, boots.com
We’re not sure about… Selfie strain
Those well-versed with the modern art of selfie-taking will know it’s not always that easy. Enter the Selfy Stick, which provides an extended arm to further indulge such vanities without the contortions. £15, prettylittlething.com
We’re buying… Zip it
Forget fiddling with laces and fighting to get your trainers on and off, because Converse has released a new version of its classic Chuck Taylor style. It comes with a handy zip running down the back.
£60, office.co.uk
We can’t wait for… Horsing around
Country types will love Massimo Dutti’s new Equestrian collection, available at the brand’s pop-up shop at the Longines Global Champions Show Jumping tour.
London, 14-16 August, massimodutti.com
We’re saving up for… glow sacks
It’s time to start compiling an autumn/winter wishlist and top of ours is the Rave bag from Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci which comes in neon yellow rubber – the most luxurious glow stick ever? From £515, givenchy.com
