If you want to experiment with a bold red lip but prefer something more wearable, Valentino Spike lipstick in 410A “On Top of the World” offers the perfect balance. Its soft matte formula gives rich colour without feeling heavy or dry, while the warm tone keeps it from looking too harsh. Paired with a defined lip liner and a touch of peach-toned blush, it creates a polished, everyday take on a classic red lip.

For a sharp city-ready look, I’ve styled a slightly cropped grey blazer with gold button detailing over a crisp white shirt with long cuffs. Paired with black suit trousers, the silhouette feels clean and polished. I’ve added a structured black Hudson Demellier tote, a gold watch, and a black belt with gold hardware to tie it all together.

A modern take on soft glam, this look leans into rich copper tones and luminous skin for an effortlessly elevated finish. Think sculpted, light-touch complexion, warm pinky-copper eyes, and a high-shine nude lip with depth. It’s polished but not overdone, balancing glow, definition and warmth in a way that feels both wearable and quiet

An effortlessly chic look built on clean lines and elevated neutrals. A dark green, black, and cream scarf adds depth beneath a belted black linen overcoat, layered over a sleek black V neck bodysuit. White tapered chinos and a vintage black belt create sharp contrast, while a DeMellier Hudson tote, gold flip flops, and Louis Vuitton sunglasses finish the outfit with relaxed polish.

A warm, peach-toned look that balances soft glow with a defined, sculpted lip. Using Rimmel Lip Liner in Spice 110 to shape and enhance, paired with the rich Valentino Spike Lipstick in 115R, the lips take center stage. The cheeks are brought to life with Fenty Beauty Blush in Baked Peach, adding a sun-kissed flush that ties everything together for an effortlessly polished finish.

White wide-leg Karen Millen trousers create a clean, polished base, paired with a maroon balloon-sleeved blazer for a bold yet refined silhouette. A matching belt defines the waist, while suede slingback heels add a soft, elegant finish. Completed with a Hudson Demier tote and Louis Vuitton sunglasses, the look feels effortlessly sophisticated.
