The new year usually means resolutions – have you got any? We do and it’s to keep on giving you all things fashion, beauty and lifestyle. We’re ready to keep our promise so here is your first FROW News of the year

Siamese DREAMing At Fenwick

Sleepwear brand, Siamese Dreams waste no time launching their brand at Fenwick of Bond Street and online for the new year. Aiming to offer timeless pieces for a satisying slumber, made from quality fabrics from Thailand. Wearable art ready for a girls’ night in or solo for your self-care night routine. From two pieces to night dresses and robes. Maybe it’s time to hit the hay now… *yawns*

‘OWN IT’ With Coluri

Empowerment, attitude and being yourself – three things FROW and Coluri’s new campaign have in common. The colourful jewellery brand introduces stand-out watch displays with two interchangeable band options – stainless steel and fabric, redesigning the black-and-white idea of a woman and shaping it to be more playful, sassy and powerful. Doesn’t stop there – the brand is donating 30% of proceeds to international women’s charities. Supporting women and adding some Coluri back into your wardrobe. We love!

Stand Out In The Crowd With Anya Hindmarch Bailey’s Tote

Just when we thought the festivities were over, Anya Hindmarch gave us an encore! The luxury brand is known for their unique accessories and big collaborations and to no surprise, they have done it again. Releasing a tote bag, but not just any tote, a Bailey’s bottle-inspired one. That’s right, the creamy liquor has been sequined and gained two handles (haha). The perfect addition to complete that party look and bring the good vibes along. 

Samantha Siu Launching On Selfridges And…

We have expanded our horizons as New York based luxury jewellery brand Samantha Siu has launched online and not just anywhere, but on Selfridges! They have a mission – creating adventure and enchantment in their fine pieces while also being ethical. Why stop there? The brand also introduces a new collection: ‘A Love Affair” – a 10-piece necklace collection that are all contemporary, sophisticated and beautiful. The inspiration? A love story of the designers’ first love and the places they explored together. Grab us the tissues.

Scotch & Soda Are Giving Us The Nostalgic Good Vibes

It’s time to let your playful side out as Amsterdam-based fashion brand, Scotch & Soda has partnered with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products for their new Looney Tunes collection. Iconic character, Bugs Bunny is the star of the show featuring on the new varsity jacket, t-shirts, jumpers and accessories. It’s time to bring back those memories with the hit cartoon we all know and love with a wascally wabbit to help. In true Looney Tunes style, that’s all folks!

An Early Series 9 Recoupling

The first recoupling is here – Love Island and eBay are officially collaborating aiming to make pre-loved and sustainable fashion the talk of the town. Ready for series 9, the slow fashion brand aims to add in pre-loved garments into the show for the new islanders and extend the life cycle of the clothes. We can’t put all our eggs in one basket but we sure can with clothes!

An Apparel Anniversary With Dickies

Time flies when you’re looking good – 100 years of streetwear brand, Dickies – an anniversary of loved garments and accessories, and what better way to celebrate than a new seasonal capsule drop? Reimagining the Icons collection and diving into the 100-year history with effortless pieces to refresh your work wardrobe. And we all love a high-waisted moment – both tapered or slim fit work pants and the high waist shorts fit the agenda. Best matched with a cropped work shirt. Everyone needs at least ONE Dickies staple, right?

A CROC Crush

Can you keep a secret? We have a Crocs crush. The comfortable and popular footwear brand has dropped a new silhouette to add that extra chic to your comfort. We all know how cold it is in the UK *puts on another pair of socks* – the Crush Clog includes a cozy faux fur liner that extends around the ankle for added warmth and added extra height too. We want to keep these FUREVER!

Net-A-Porter Welcomes Good American

Good American is the gift that keeps on giving. The fashion brand is known for its size inclusivity, body positivity and female empowerment and they are expanding their movement bit by bit now joining Net-A-Porter, luxury online fashion retailer. Bringing the most loved and known pieces such as bodysuits and of course, signature denim enabling wider global access. A partnership that goes hand in hand!

Spring Into Action With GANNI

We’re looking in the mirror and loving what we see in GANNI PS23 – a “Viva la Revolution” to confidence. This capsule is about owning your body and showing off your true self and what better way to do it than revamping your wardrobe? Metallic, denim and embroidered pieces are featured in spring season-inspired colours – apple green, orangeade and hot pink. And who doesn’t love a throwback? The collection captures the 90s in their flared jeans and statement scuba shoes. Bringing a whole new vibe to our New Year!

The Calm After The Storm With L’Occitane 

It’s CDB month and it’s time to kick-start that journey with L’Occitane. Welcoming the new Lavender CBD collection – expertly blended for your relaxation are hemp and CBD for anti-inflammatory and aromatherapy benefits. The lineup includes Bi-phase Body Milk Spray, Hand & Foot Cream and Body Massage Oil. Also, the iconic Shea Butter collection brings a rich body lotion, nails and cuticle oil and one-minute hand scrub. Looks like if we can’t make it to the spa, the spa will come to us.

Soak And Recover With Lush

Gym rats and athletes listen up – Lush has recently announced the launch of its new Magnesium range. Newly added to their self-care items are three magnesium massage bars and two Epsom salt cubes – two essentials when improving muscle recovery, relieving pain and bettering your sleep.

Light Up The Room With Jo Malone Charity Candle

We all love candles but we think you’ll love this candle even more. Jo Malone is adding another fragrance to their Charity Candle collection with a new floral and fresh Hemlock & Bergamot version.

A Heist Show With A Never Seen Before Twist

Entertainment has reached new levels on Netflix with the new limited series Kaleidoscope. Fans of Money Heist, crime shows and mysteries, this one is about to keep you engaged. Over 25 years, the anthology series follows a crew of thieves and an unforgettable heist. Inspired by the real story of the Manhattan Hurricane Sandy story of seventy billion dollars missing downtown. But wait… it gets better. With 8 episodes, each being a piece to a puzzle, every viewer on Netflix experiences the story differently. You heard correctly – rather than watching each episode in order, they are randomised giving a different perspective to the show. Jaw drops. This is one we’ll definitely be watching.
