Do you have a Sonny Angel staring at you right now from your phone or laptop? Do you class pastel tones as the elite colour family? Is an outfit ever complete without a bow adornment? Is getting dressed in something cute the best part of your day? If you answered favourably to all of the aforementioned, then you’re going to want to stick around for what's next.

Hi, I’m Orion, H! Fashion’s Style Editor, and it's my absolute privilege and pleasure to introduce you to my weekly hotlist, a love letter to those who consider themselves a connoisseur of fun fashion.

From independent brands worth knowing and new collaborations that deserve the limelight, to whimsical wardrobe wonders that remind me exactly why I love fashion. Basically, this is everything on my wishlist and hopefully, now on yours.

  • Cecilie Bahnsen Ace Top

    Ace Top

    Cecilie Bahnsen

    If there's one wardrobe hero you need for the warmer months, it's a plain white tee. But, because we're not basic, not just any white tee will do. Enter, Cecilie Bahnsen's ruched Ace Top from the Copen-cool brands newest collection. Simple, but flattering the intricate detailing hugs the waist, making for the perfect layering essential. 

  • Miista sandals

    Samia Sandals

    Miista

    Far from your regular open toe heel, Miista's Samia Sandals are the ultimate outfit elevator. The two strap thong sandal, constructed in shiny crinkle black leather, sits on an inverted 6.5 cm heel to create a distinctive silhouette destined to turn heads. 

  • Alani Swan Shaped Crossbody Bag - White

    Alani Swan Shaped Crossbody Bag

    JW PEI

    When all you can be bothered wearing is a baggy tee and lace trimmed skirt, a fun and somewhat impractical handbag always comes in clutch. JW PEI are known in the biz for making obscure but captivating bag options, and its new swan style is proof of just that. 

  • The Deba Midi Skirt

    The Deba Midi Skirt

    Peachy Den

    If there was ever a skirt to wear on repeat for months on end, Peachy Den's best selling Deba Midi Skirt is it. Flattering, frivolous and utterly versatile, it looks good with quite literally any top option and footwear style. 

  • Everyday Vacation Tote

    Everyday Vacation Tote

    July

    Big bags are in for SS26, and that's mainly because they can fit everything and anything you need. From a large and in charge water bottles and picnic blanket, to a change of clothes and a few ready to drink tins of rose, large bags needn't be frowned upon, especially when they're this cute.

  • The Rose Oversized Pajama Set in Stripes with Yellow trim

    The Rose Oversized Pajama Set in Stripes with Yellow trim

    Sleeper

    A set of lavish pyjamas so cute you just have to wear them out of the house is my absolute kryptonite. These particular stripey delights from cult-favourite luxe lounge and fashion brand Sleeper, effortlessly blends menswear-inspired tailoring with feminine grace. Add a set of statement sunglasses and prepare to have everyone in the pub ask where you got your set from. 

  • The Halo Sunglasses from Jimmy Fairly

    The Halo

    Jimmy Fairly

    Chunky sunglasses obsessives unite! These large and in charge Jimmy Fairly options are a one way ticket to cool-girl central station, and will be your go-to styling essential for the sunny months, mark my words. 

  • Light blue cotton shirt with multicolored Peanuts™ Snoopy patches

    Light Blue Cotton Shirt With Peanuts™ Snoopy patches

    Essentiel Antwerp

    A can quite honestly say that I don't think I've ever seen a more perfect button-up shirt. Fresh, fun and sprinkled with nostalgia, the new Essentiel Antwerp X Peanuts collaboration is for the fashion girls who like fashion the fun way. Made from 100% cotton and plastered with embroidered patches, this wardrobe essential is perfect for layering under or over micro mini dresses, styling with shorts or jeans, or, as an art piece sitting pretty on a hanger somewhere in your home. Talk about versatile. 

  • Rosalind Patent Vanilla Leather Ballet Flats

    Rosalind Patent Vanilla Leather Ballet Flats

    Alohas

    If I had to pick a favourite footwear silhouette in my rotation, the famed Alohas Rosalind Ballet Flats would be my pick of the litter, every damn day. Which is why I need them in this dreamy new buttery yellow vanilla colour. 

  • Parachute Quilted Bomber from Marfa Stance

    Parachute Quilted Bomber

    Marfa Stance

    This particular puffy delight is a Marfa Stance icon, which makes it all the more lust-worthy. If you're someone who struggles with layering in this unpredicted climate, then a lightweight jacket like this will instantly become your best friend. If the pastel wasabi green colouring wasn't enough to make you 'add to cart', like all Marfa Stance jackets, it's also reversible, which means you're not only getting more bang for you buck (girl math) but you're also getting a whole different aesthetic, all in one perfectly puffy design. 

  • Lulu Guiness Lip Clutch in Silver

    Lip Clutch Silver

    Lulu Guiness

    There's nothing I love more than elevating my outfit with a fun bag, and Lulu Guinness are the best to ever do it. Currently on my lust-list is the iconic Lip Clutch in silver. The perfect size for date night and beyond, while also being a great talking point while you're waiting in line for a drink. This is a wardrobe hero that's most definetly and art piece. 

  • Poppy Lissiman sunglasses

    Rossi Speedway Sunglasses

    Poppy Lissiman

    I don't run, nor will I ever, but I like the idea of it and all the accoutrements that come with. These speedy specs give the illusion that you're fast on the pavement without the ankle pain and sweaty hair. Pops of neon are calling my name at the moment, a fun way to inject bold colour into any ensemble. 

  • Damson Madder Headscarf

    Tie Headscarf

    Damson Madder

    Nine times out of ten, you can count on me having a bad hair day, and that's just a fact. I could stop things at the source and not go to bed with wet hair, but why would I put myself out when I can just cover it with a cute stripey head scarf? 

  • Melissa x Susan Fang platform shoes

    Possession Platform Sakura

    Melissa x Susan Fang

    I love Melissa, and I love Susan Fang, so this new footwear collab has me feeling like they had a picture of my face on their initial conception moodboard. Chunky, floral-adorned jelly shoes are set to be the only thing I put on my feet this sunny season, and these black options will go with everything and anything. 

  • Shrimps SS26 Rowan Blouse - Leaf Green Check

    Rowan Blouse

    Shrimps

    Shrimps will always pull at my heartstrings for reasons that need no explanation. Hot off the press from its new SS26 collection, this adorable puff sleeve blouse is large and in charge in all the right ways. Pair with a denim skirt, ballet flats and prepare to frolic through Hampstead Heath all summer long. 

  • Eye Stylus Shadow Stick from Ilia

    Eye Stylus Shadow Stick

    ILIA

    I am really trying to lean into fun makeup this season, and thankfully, my absolute favourite makeup brand, ILIA, has a selection of vibrant products to assist. Easy to pull off, and even easier to apply, this shadow stick in matte mint green is just asking to be a beauty favourite for SS26.

  • VANILLA PEGGY cardigan from House of Sunny

    Vanilla Peggy Cardigan

    House of Sunny

    There's something to be said about a 2-in-1 design, especially in this economy. Double the versatility and double the cuteness? Now that's girl math. Hailing from House of Sunny's newest drop, this dreamy vanilla-toned cardigan comes complete with a detachable faux-fur collar, so you can dress up or down, whatever the occasion.

  • Margie Pinny Dress - Baby Blue from Common place essentials

    Margie Pinny Dress

    Commonplace

    The sun is shining, and I refuse to wear anything but cute dresses from here on out. Commonplace is one of those brands that never ever misses, and this delightful baby blue cotton poplin number is proof of just that. Coming complete with wide straps and a breezy silhouette, it layers over a baby t-shirt or shirt, or can be worn on its own for a touch of laid-back elegance.

  • Tyger personalised ring

    Custom Flat Ring

    Tyger

    This sunny season, I'm on a mission to upgrade my jewellery game, because nothing elevates a simple ensemble quite like a stack of chunky rings, earrings and bracelets. Because I'm vain and never want to forget my own name, a personalised name ring is on my wishlist. Individually hand-sculpted by skilled artisans and available in either silver or gold, this dreamy keepsake will make the perfect gift for yourself or someone you love. 

  • Linnet Backless Mesh Ballerina in White from Schuh

    Linnet Backless Mesh Ballerina in White

    Schuh

    Though ballet flat season for me is all year round, there's something about indulging in a new pair of fresh flats for the warmer weather, because you'll likely be wearing them on repeat. Mesh options have remained a constant in my wardrobe, but I'm obsessed with these slip-on options from Schuh's new collection. Easy to style, comfortable and above all else, breathable - no sweats tootsies round here!

  • Media Image

    White Cotton Broderie Anglaise Boat Neck Maxi Dress

    House of CB

    As I said before, from now till the end of summer, I refuse to wear anything but cute dresses. There's nothing I love more than pairing a pretty dress with a set of chunky boots and funky sunglasses, which is why this new House of CB dress is on my lust list. 

  • Cath Kidston Monochrome Mesh Beach Bag

    Monochrome Mesh Beach Bag

    Cath Kidston

    Just like how you need a new dress, sunglasses and flats for the spring season, you also need a new cute tote bag that won't ruin your outfit. From park picnic to out-of-office occasions, there's something to be said about an aesthetically pleasing bag that fits everything you could possibly need.  

  • Pink Vanity Mini Dress from Lirika Matoshi

    Pink Vanity Mini Dress

    Lirika Matoshi

    Hang it in the Louvre! A literal work of art, this dreamy dress is for the gals who grew up playing with Polly Pockets. Handmade by Kosovo designer Lirika Matoshi, this dress epitomised girlhood in a dress. Crafted from structured fabric and featuring a framed mirror, vanity detail complete with miniature accessories, including a lipstick, hair comb, blush compact, and necklace.

    No notes. 

  • ARRANGE shard sequin square cut hem midi skirt co-ord in pink

    Shard Sequin Square Cut Hem Midi Skirt Co-Ord in Pink

    Arrange

    One of my goals this year is to wear sequins all year round, because, quite frankly, life is too short. Arrange, by ASOS, never fails to bring a smile to my fashion-obsessed dial, and this dreamy pastel pink co-ord is case in point. 

    Perfect for attending a summer wedding, a delicious date night or just to the pub on a sunny Friday afternoon, this co-ord is a statement set like no other. 


  • Nothing Tech pink headphones

    Headphone (a)

    Nothing

    By the coolest tech brand on the market right now, Nothing Tech is a London-based consumer tech company aiming  to make technology "fun again" through design-led, transparent-backed smartphones and audio products. 

    On my wishlist and in my basket are the Nothing Headphone (a)'s, an over-ear headphone in the dreamiest shade of bubblegum pink. I'm a firm believer in investing in technology products that won't ruin my outfit, and these are it. 

  • SHUSHU/TONG Gray Round Neck Sleeveless Minidress

    Gray Round Neck Sleeveless Minidress

    SHUSHU/TONG

    If you don't know SHUSHU/TONG, then you're in for a treat, and I suggest you use your lunch break to scroll through their seriously swoonworthy Instagram. Focusing on feminine style with a twist, the Shanghai-based brand isn't afraid of a lace trim ruffle or bow adornment, making it one of my absolute favourite brands to date. 

    On the wishlist this week is the Gray Round Neck Sleeveless Minidress. A scoop neck micro mini that almost looks like a super chic maid costume, do I even need to explain why this is on my lust list?

  • Chante Sleep Top from For Love & Lemons

    Chante Sleep Top

    For Love & Lemons

    With summer hot on our heels, finding a selection of easy breezy tops that pair well with quite literally anything is at the top of my to-do list. I love anything and everything For Love & Lemons creates, but this butter yellow, lace-trimmed cami has my heart skipping a beat. 

  • Pebble Lilac Dream SX from Paloceras

    Pebble Lilac Dream SX

    Paloceras

    The key to elevating any look in my eyes is adding a pair of statement sunglasses. The weirder, the wackier, the more whimsical the better. I have had my eye on a pair of Paloceras glasses for a while now, as they seem to be the only brand on the market specialising in really high-quality, funky specs. Made atelier in the brand's Lisbon atelier from cured Mazzucchelli cellulose acetate, these are most definitely a talking point. 

  • Calf Hair & Suede Cow-Print Top-Flap Sneakers

    Calf Hair & Suede Cow-Print Top-Flap Sneakers

    Charles & Keith

    Whenever I'm looking for a new pair of cute kicks, my first stop is always Charles & Keith. 

    A fun sneaker will always reign supreme in my eyes, and there's something about mixing patterns an texures that makes my heart sing. I'd style these with a slouchy pink sock and a mini dress, or with a sporty short and button-up shirt. 

  • Teddy heart knicker FROM MISS CROFTON

    Teddy Heart Knicker

    Miss Crofton

    I'm a firm believer in the fact that a cute outfit starts from the base, and that means indulging in lingerie and knickers that are designed to be seen.

    Based in London, Miss Crofton delicates are all made in small runs with locally sourced materials; each piece reflecting an ongoing expression of nostalgia, desire, and the thrill of all things femme. 

    On the odd occasion that your skirt blows over your head in gustly gale (it happens!), you're gonna want to give city spectators a show!

  • Hope Macaulay knitted horse jumper

    Cowgirl Chunky Knit Sweater

    Hope Macaulay

    'Tis the Year of the Horse, and god knows I love a theme. Hope Macaulay is a family-run, woman-owned contemporary luxury fashion brand specialising in hand-knit chunky delights. I've been following the Northern Ireland-born brand for a while now, and they never miss a beat. This cosy jumper is the perfect wardrobe wonder for the transitional season, a lush layer to wear over a skimpy dress - an utterly elite combo. 

  • PUMA Speedcat Plus from Puma x Madhappy

    PUMA Speedcat Plus

    Puma x Madhappy

    I love me a good collab, and this Madhappy x Puma marriage is one of my favourites thus far. The Puma Speedcat silhouette is a hot contender for the coolest shoe on the market right now, and LA-based brand Madhappy has just made the style even more desirable. 

    Reimagined with satin jacquard and an all-over floral motif, the collaborative style is peak girlhood core and set to be on the hooves of those most stylish in a matter of moments - mark my words.
