Samara Weaving Joins Bvlgari
Yesterday it was announced that one of Hollywood's favourite scream queens, Australian actress Samara Weaving, was being introduced as a new friend of the Bvlgari house. With her iconic roles in Ready Or Not, Scream VI and The Babysitter among other projects, Weaving has proven her incredible talents, as well as her enduring sartorial appeal. We think this is a match made in heaven.

Woven Together
For a second year, Kiwi fashion pioneer Karen Walker partners with Fiji’s non-profit organisation, Rise Beyond the Reef, to celebrate the talent and traditions of rural Indigenous women. This ongoing collaboration brings their craftsmanship to life in a capsule collection of handwoven totes and backpacks. Each piece is made entirely by hand—from harvesting and bundling to wrapping and weaving—all crafted with a deep reverence for the art. Last month, Walker visited the village to experience the process firsthand, immersing herself in the strong sense of community behind each creation. "I watched the women gather in the community hall to craft these beautiful pieces. These are the projects I love—sharing stories, hanging out, and witnessing the incredible spirit of collaboration," she shared. Here’s your chance to shop and show your support in supurb style.

The Glow Of All Time
Meet a girl's best friend: Bondi Sands. That picture-perfect Australian beach glow we've always dreamed of has been our trusty go-to for countless Thursday night self-care rituals. Remember those high school days when we'd skip the exfoliation, grab an old mitt (if we even had one), lather on the tan, and head straight to bed? Thankfully, we've all grown up since then, and now we know the right steps and routines to get that flawless, glowing finish every time. A big congratulations to our friends at Bondi Sands for officially becoming the number one best-selling express tan globally!
