Matteau | String Triangle Top
I mentioned this bikini in my SheerLuxe feature, but I’m so obsessed with the colour. I’ve been looking forward to styling the bikini top with some wide leg trousers – particularly my white Matteau Fisherman Drawcord pair.
I usually prefer a high-waisted bikini bottom, but the matching string bottoms are perfect for maximising your tan. I love how they fit most sizes and can be adjusted to fit how you like.

SunsolveMD | Tinted Sun Cream SPF 50
You heard it here first: this is the best tinted sunscreen I’ve tried. I’ve been using it for the past couple of months and absolutely love how hydrating it is. It gives my skin a healthy, glowy finish while, of course, still offering SPF 50 protection, making it my go-to for everyday wear. Once I’m back from holiday with (hopefully!) a bit more colour, I’ll be trying a couple of shades darker.

There are Rivers in the Sky | Elif Shafak
I’m sharing this from a family holiday in Antiparos, where I’m currently halfway through this book and can’t put it down.
Elif Shafak weaves together three narratives across different timelines, all connected by the powerful symbolism of water and the idea that stories can transcend generations. It’s a beautifully written exploration of how the past continues to shape the present. Thought-provoking and deeply moving, each chapter leaves me wanting to read just one more.

In case you missed it, the SheerLuxe team recently visited me at home in Brighton, where I had such a lovely time chatting to Lu Hough all about my peak summer wardrobe and the pieces I reach for most during the season.

Ranavat | Eternal Reign Firming Bakuchi Serum
I first started using this as part of a paid partnership, but I quickly realised it was everything I look for in a skincare product. I love formulas that make skincare feel less like a chore and more like a ritual, and this has become one of those products I genuinely look forward to using.
Formulated with bakuchi seed extract – often described as nature’s gentler alternative to retinol – alongside peptides and ceramides, it helps keep my skin feeling supple and bouncy. It’s lightweight, absorbs so well and never feels greasy, so it layers perfectly with the rest of my skincare (and under makeup).
I’ve been using it consistently for a few months now, and my skin feels smoother, more hydrated and noticeably more refined. It’s exactly the kind of serum I want in my routine.

Alex Eagle | The Lexington Lanyard
I’ve been wearing this sunglasses case all holiday and love how it works styled with outfits but also how practical it is — my sunglasses are now always within easy reach, and there’s no more balancing them on top of my head (one of my biggest pet peeves because it stretches the frames).
I can’t stop thinking about the red — it would be such a fun way to add a pop of colour to any outfit.
Until next time,
— Alexis x
