Dyson Supersonic in Pink
If you know anything about fashion, you’ll know that having this secret weapon by your side can make or break your whole outfit. Dyson’s most powerful yet lightest hair dryer delivers ultra-fast, precision drying with a streamlined, ergonomic design that’s 30% smaller and 20% lighter than previous models, making it comfortable to use even for extended styling sessions. Not to mention, it’s pink!
It’s one of the best hairstyling tools on the market, and it can complement any outfit with the perfect hair.
Sol de Janeiro Limited-Edition Perfume Mist Collection
With a new season heading your way, there’s no better way to celebrate that than with a brand-new scent. The Flor Mística mist blends orange blossom and golden musk for a dreamy daytime aura, while Água Mística combines neroli water and salty skin for crisp freshness. Dança Mística layers purple fig and sandalwood for an evening-ready richness, perfect for those who crave depth without heaviness.
These bottles fit effortlessly into a weekend bag or handbag and can be taken on the go. While the brand has some iconic lineups, these scents might just take the stage.
The Cult Gaia Bridal Collection
If this year is the year of wedding bells and celebrations, this might be one of your top choices this season. Cult Gaia makes its bridal debut with a collection that reimagines wedding wear through its signature sculptural lens, blending minimalist silhouettes with avant-garde details. The 2025 lineup features pieces like the Lillie knit dress, a mini-length design with high-neck drama and artful cutouts, alongside preorder-ready styles like the Cassidy sandal and the Vermeer dress.
Old Navy Special Occasion Dresses
Old Navy’s new “The Occasion” collection delivers polished styles under $65 for budget-conscious shoppers prepping for wedding season. The lineup blends affordability with runway-inspired details. It features satin cowl necklines, flutter sleeves, and taffeta midi skirts in versatile neutrals and bold prints, perfect for proms, garden parties, or cocktail hours.
With prices starting around $25, this quietly launched drop answers the demand for accessible occasionwear that transitions seamlessly from day to night.
Jones Road Just Enough Tinted Moisturizer
There’s nothing quite like a good tinted moisturizer to give you that natural look without feeling like it’s too much. Created by makeup legend Bobbi Brown, this lightweight formula delivers sheer, buildable coverage that expertly evens out skin tone, blurs redness, and softens imperfections. Infused with hydrating ingredients like glycerin, vitamin E, and hyaluronic acid, it imparts a healthy, demi-matte finish and boosts skin’s moisture barrier, making it suitable for all skin types, including dry and combination.
If you’re into a minimalistic makeup routine, this would be the perfect should for your must-have shopping list next time you head over to Refinery29.
The Ordinary Multi-Antioxidant Radiance Serum
No makeup routine is complete without giving your skin the love it needs and deserves. Formulated with eight advanced antioxidant ingredients, including stabilized vitamin C, ginseng extract, EGCG from green tea, peptides, and snow fungus extract. This serum neutralizes free radicals, improves skin texture, and visibly brightens dull or uneven complexions.
This serum can be used in the morning or at night to help fade dark spots, smooth fine lines, and strengthen the skin barrier for a healthier, more radiant look.
Nomasei Stiletto Heels
This Paris-based brand has stepped into new territory with its stiletto heels. Designed by former Chloé footwear director Paule Tenaillon, these 3-inch sculptural styles prioritize stability through strategic features: memory foam-padded toe boxes, heels positioned closer to the ball of the foot, and adjustable straps that customize fit around the ankle and arch. Nomasei’s commitment to responsible craftsmanship and rave reviews citing dance-floor endurance make these heels a standout for 2025’s trendsetters looking for elegance without agony.
Colorwow Texas Hold’em Big Hold Hairspray
No look can ever be complete without having the right hair products to keep it in place, and this hairspray sure has been a standout product. Designed to lock in styles for up to eight hours even in 60% humidity, this pH-balanced spray uses crystal-clear resins to prevent dulling or yellowing on color-treated hair while depositing 50% less alcohol than competitors to avoid brittleness. Their lightweight mist gives you a flexible, flake-free finish with built-in heat and UV protection, making it ideal for everything from voluminous blowouts to defined curls that stay soft to the touch.
& Other Stories’ Savoir Collection
& Other Stories’ 2025 Savoir Collection continues its legacy of crafting couture-inspired, future-vintage pieces that blend mid-century opulence with modern wearability. Building on the 2024 edition’s homage to 1950s silhouettes and Anna Cleveland’s campaign vision, think heart, lips, and bow motifs with delicate colors like cherry reds and blossom pinks.
