The weather<\/a> may not be able to make up its mind this week, but our shopping expert<\/a> is feeling pretty definite on what she\u2019s been loving since last weekend.<\/p>\n

Whether it\u2019s a new jumper<\/a> for the colder weather (because you can never have too many), skincare <\/a>to keep your complexion from drying up in the cold or homeware <\/a>upgrades to make your space properly<\/em> cosy, we\u2019ve found the best of the best this week.<\/p>\n

But firstly, housekeeping \u2013 because this week has been packed with news and newness you’ll want to hear about.<\/p>\n

Bringing together facial health<\/a> and bodily wellness<\/a>, FACEGYM<\/a>, the global leader in facial fitness, has partnered with wellness brand SWIISH <\/a>to bring functional hydration to all FACEGYM London<\/a> studios throughout October.<\/p>\n

\n
\n\t\t\"\"<\/a>\t<\/div>
From the 1st<\/sup> to the 31st<\/sup> October, every FACEGYM client will receive a SWIISH electrolyte drink to be enjoyed in-studio or taken away (Picture: FACEGYM\/SWIISH)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

From the 1st<\/sup> to the 31st<\/sup> October, every FACEGYM client will receive a SWIISH electrolyte drink to be enjoyed in-studio or taken away, designed to help supercharge hydration and enhance the results of your \u2018face workout\u2019.<\/p>\n

The collab is the perfect way to tend to your inner health as FACEGYM\u2019s incredible facialists look after your skin, celebrating a holistic approach to skin and performance.<\/p>\n

I mean, you\u2019d neck an electrolyte drink after a workout in the gym, so why not after a face workout at FACEGYM?<\/p>\n

In other, more fashion-related news, Omnes<\/a>, a London-based fashion<\/a> brand designed with sustainability<\/a> in mind, has just dropped its autumn range \u2013 and it\u2019s absolutely to die for.<\/p>\n

\n
\n\t\t\"\"<\/a>\t<\/div>
The new in Omnes autumn collection has everything you could need to give your wardrobe a cosy upgrade. Truly, we’re obsessed (Picture: Omnes)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Filled with cosy knits, staple denim and even winter wedding guest pieces (currently at the top of my \u2018to buy\u2019 list), the collection <\/a>has everything you could need to give your cold-weather wardrobe a spruce (pardon the pun).<\/p>\n

On a different note, England\u2019s women\u2019s rugby team, the Red Roses, play France in the Women\u2019s Rugby<\/a> World Cup semi-final tomorrow (Saturday 20th<\/sup> September), and we\u2019re pretty darn excited.<\/p>\n

If you wanted to score a skincare must-have to commemorate our girls’ spectacular performance thus far, Clinique are selling a Limited-Edition Red Roses iteration of their Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+<\/a> – and it\u2019s absolutely iconic.<\/p>\n

Finally, Benefit has dropped their newest Christmas gifting collection<\/a> centered on the joy of playing games with your loved ones during the festive season, and with it three unmissable \u2018Beneland\u2019 pop-ups in Selfridges across the UK to celebrate the stunning range.<\/p>\n

Trust us, you don\u2019t want to miss it.<\/p>\n
