Love is in the air this week. With Valentine’s fast approaching, we’ve compiled a swoon-worthy edit of sweatshirts made for sharing, romantic Roman hideaways, female friendship celebrations, and more.
Scroll on for this week’s rundown in full.
ATTEND THIS In Ode To Female Friendships, The Greatest Romances Of Our Lives, by Her Hustle at The Edition, London
No Valentine’s plans? Now you do… The London EDITION has teamed up with Her Hustle to host an event devoted to female friendship from 6-8PM on the 14th. Held in the hotel’s intimate Punch Room, the evening will celebrate female friendship and the written word. Hosted by Emma-Louise Boynton, Presenter and Her Hustle Co-Founder, the live letters event will commence with a welcome cocktail followed by words and readings from Mother Pukka, as well as Kate Hamilton and Emily Ames, Founders of Sonder & Tell, amongst others. At the end of the session, you’ll be invited to put pen to paper in ode to your greatest female-friend romance.
SHOP THIS Ahluwalia Wave Trench Coat
We’re at that time in winter where we are reluctantly shrugging on our heavy-duty coats; however, as we inch nearer to spring, it’s a good time to invest in lighter outerwear options. We’ve fallen rather hard for this belted trench coat from sustainable fashion label Ahluwalia. Constructed from upcycled Italian fabric, we’re coveting the sinuous wave print and earthy palette of white, black, orange, and blue. With a jacket this chic, we’re more than happy for it to be the focal point of any outfit…
BOOKMARK THIS Rosewood São Paulo
Rosewood São Paulo, the brand’s first property in South America, launches this month. Located near the lively Avenida Paulista, Rosewood São Paulo is a metropolitan oasis within Cidade Matarazzo. A former hospital, the space has been reimagined by design mavericks Jean Nouvel and Philippe Starck. Boasting 160 guestrooms and suites, along with 100 private Rosewood Suites available for purchase, the Rosewood São Paulo also plays host to six restaurants and bars, including Rabo di Galo, a jazz bar with eclectic cocktails and a majestic hand-painted ceiling. Our favourite thing about this opening? The property’s rooftop infinity pool complete with hand-painted tiles. It’s all in the details…
WEAR THIS Ami De Coeur Sweatshirt, AMI Paris
We’re head over heels in love with this peppermint pullover from AMI Paris. The Ami De Coeur sweatshirt cuts a boxy shaped, fabricated in heavy loopback cotton fleece. Made of 100% organic cotton, this unisex item is likely to attract many admirers – wear yours about town for the afternoon if you don’t believe us. A great go-between wardrobe item, its luxe feel and casual character makes for easy weekend attire, seeing you through from yoga to Sunday lunch to Netflix and chill time.
BOOK THIS Maalot Rome
Located in the former residence of Gaetano Donizetti (the famous Italian opera composer of Don Pasquale and Lucia di Lammermoor), MAALOT Roma is a vibrant spot to spend a couple of night in the centre of the city. With just 30 rooms, best to book ahead of the springtime rush. On the ground floor, you’ll find the restaurant and bar set in a glass domed skylight veranda. Helmed by Executive Chef Domenico Boschi, the menu here offers a contemporary take on traditional Roman recipes, in addition to great cocktails to ‘salute’ to your Roman holiday.
