]]> August is the month of summer fun, sizzling temperatures and lazy days by the pool, so what better way to celebrate than treating your summer wardrobe to the hottest new pieces? We’ve got the round-up of all the fire fashion launches of the month to get you caught up and looking fresh.

Ganni x Levi’s ‘Grow Up’ collection

Two iconic brands teaming together? A summer treat indeed. Ganni and Levi’s ‘Grow Up’ collection is a bright, playful capsule of relaxed denim and dresses perfect for those balmy summer days as shown on the campaign featuring much-loved blogger Emma Chamberlain. Made using over 60 percent sustainable materials and water-saving techniques, the collection debuted as part of Ganni’s SS23 Copenhagen Fashion Week show, and is operating on a see-now, buy-now basis so get shopping!

Skims: Perforated Seamless

Workup a sweat in the hot-new Skims Perforated Seamless collection. Sporty meets sexy in
these form-fitting, lightweight mesh cuts. The size-inclusive line, available from XXS-4X, comes
in five colours and is perfect for working out or incorporated into a killer outfit.

KFC x Hype

This is the collab we fast-food fans didn’t know we needed. Fried chicken legend KFC teamed up with streetwear brand Hype to create a spicy range to turn up the heat this season. The exclusive 47-piece collection features all your wardrobe essentials inspired by KFC’s history, menus and slogans including bralettes, tees, joggers, jackets, bucket hats and bags to have you looking flaming hot.

Zara: Atelier collection 02

Highstreet hero Zara’s Atelier collections focus on a single garment to bring an artistic, carefully constructed take on a women’s wardrobe essential. The second limited-edition instalment revolves around dresses, reinterpreted in five different ways using rich fabrics and metallic embellishments for a slightly punk yet refined feel that can be worn for a multitude of occasions.

Vans x Em on Holiday

Emma Mulholland on Holiday, the cult Aussie label known for its vacation-ready clothing and swimwear collaborated with the go-to skater-girl sneaker brand Vans on a genderless head-to-toe capsule featuring bright colours and quirky prints to extend your summer vacay.

The RealReal: ReCollection 04

The RealReal, a trusted online marketplace for luxury consignment, ReCollection program uses traditional embroidery and mending techniques to create one-of-a-kind garments, such as embroidered tops and linen dresses with contrast stitching, to promote a more eco-friendly approach to fashion – but hurry, stock is limited and when it’s gone it’s gone!

Carly Cushnie for Starling

Carly Cushnie, the New York-based designer whose fans include Michelle Obama, Beyoncé, and Selena Gomez, brought her creative touch to the jewellery world in a collaboration with Starling. The exclusive five-piece collection, named ‘Where the Ocean Meets the Sky’ is perfect for summer as it’s inspired by horizons, cultures and coasts. The finery is sustainably made in L.A. using 100 percent recycled solid 14k gold, then set with aquamarine and diamond – we don’t mind if we do.

]]> The summer solstice has officially come and gone, and with each passing second, we etch closer and closer to fall – but wipe those tears, summer has only really just begun. Whether you’re hitting the clubs with your girlies or going goblin mode at your local park, this month’s releases have something for everyone. With heatwaves expected way into September, here are the freshest releases from the past month for your listening pleasure:

M.I.A. – Popular

Is it just us, or does M.I.A just hit different when it’s hot? Fresh off of our first preview into M.I.A’S upcoming album MATA, we have our second preview in the form of a sick reggaeton-type-beat in signature M.I.A style. Rapping about living her best life, this thumping track is the perfect tune for getting pumped for a night out.

Lizzo – 2 Be Loved (Am I Ready)

If you loved Lizzo’s smash hit ‘Truth hurts’, we have a feeling you might love her new track 2 Be Loved (Am I ready) even more. A vulnerable but upbeat summer-ready hit, Lizzo questions if she’s ready to be loved if she doesn’t always love herself. We get it, self-love is important, and this upbeat, synthy track packed with 80s nostalgia may just be THE song of the summer to allow yourself love. Also, is Lizzo bringing back disco? We hope so.

Rico Nasty – Blow Me

We’ve loved Rico Nasty since her Sugar Trap days, in particular, how she kills any beat she’s on. This fresh new release from her Las Ruinas mixtape is no different. Blow me is an off kilter, mellower track than we are used to but a hit nonetheless. Strutting her stuff on a small treadmill and running through several cunty ensembles, Rico has solidified herself as a fashion icon, and this track will allow you to feel as fancy, classy, rich and nasty as her.

Megan Thee Stallion – Her

Leading off the success and controversy of her last album ‘Good News’, Megan thee stallion is back with a clear message: she doesn’t give a single fuck about what you have to say. Delivered in a club-ready house beat with staccato vocals, this track will make you feel like you’re getting ready to vogue the house down.

Danger Mouse & Black Thought – Strangers (feat. A$AP Rocky and Run The Jewels)

The dawn of a new year brings many wonders, what will the year hold? I mean, who saw thin brows ever making a comeback? But few surprises threw us quite as much as an ASAP Rocky X Run The Jewels X Danger Mouse X Black Thought collab. ‘Strangers’ is a masterclass in mixing. Mixing artists and mixing samples (with insane production), owed of course to the brilliant Danger Mouse, known for his past collabs with Madlib and MFDOOM. So, when your friends pass you the USB this summer and you don’t want to bomb, we humbly submit this sick, new track as the answer.

PinkPantheress, Sam Gellaitry – Picture in my mind

It just wouldn’t be summer in the city without Gen Z’s new hyper-pop princess. In collaboration with Sam Gellaitry, Picture in my mind is a sickly-sweet summer ballad that flirts with toxicity by begging their partner to stay together regardless of their troubles. Full of slick production, immaculate vibes, some robotic auto-tuned singing, and the classic coquettish voice that made her such a hit in 2021 – This will be one of the defining songs of the summer.

Bella Poarch – Dolls

Dark pop is a choice, it’s hard to pull off, and we have no complaints about TikTok star turned popstar Bella Porches newest tune. Featuring a cyborg Grimes, this bouncy revenge anthem is perfect for fantasising about going all scorch the earth on those who have done you wrong.

bLAck pARty – I Love You More Than You Know ft. Childish Gambino

From his third studio album Hummingbird comes dreamy, summer hit, I love you more than you know – featuring Childish Gambino of all people. Having previously worked together before on classic summer album ‘Awaken, my love!’ the duo have worked their magic again and created the perfect track for relaxing at the beach this summer full of reflective lyrics and lulling melodies.

Central Cee – Doja

If you’ve been plugged in for the past month, we have no doubt you’ll have heard London rapper Central Cee’s fresh new track Doja. Toeing the line between viral joke and viral hit, Doja is a fun, infectious tune set to the beat of Eve and Gwen Stefanis ‘let me blow your mind’ that’ll be sure to get you screaming that hook.

Beyoncé – CUFF IT

The dust has started to settle from Beyonce’s newest album ‘Renaissance’ and a favourite seems to have appeared. This track’s upbeat, seductive and devilmay-care vibe is why it’s the ultimate hot girl summer anthem. This summer hit welcomes you to fuck up the night, and who are we to argue with Beyonce?

]]> August is well under way, and as always, so are the latest beauty products. From flawless foundations to vegan friendly brushes, Voir is at your service to share all of the newest makeup launches worthy of your attention. What’s more, we’re right on time. As summer begins to draw to a close, what’s more luxurious than adding some new, luscious items to your makeup bag? After all, they’re guaranteed to give you that well sought-after, fresh summer sheen all year long, and we can’t ask for much more than that!

Chanel Les Beiges Water-Fresh Blush

Comprised of 75% water, this innovative formula uses visible, micro-droplet pigments that instantly melt into your cheeks, offering a healthy-glow that hydrates the skin whilst leaving a natural-looking flushed effect. To apply, place a pea-size amount of blush onto the back of your hand and, for a subtle look, apply to the top of your cheekbones before blending gently with your fingertips. For a more defined finish, apply the product on the lower parts of the cheeks and then blend outwards – we promise you’ll adore each of the six available shades!

Charlotte Tilbury Eyes To Mesmerise 

If you haven’t heard of Charlotte Tilbury’s Eyes to Mesmerise, you’re missing out. Whilst this creamy eyeshadow formula is nothing new, three gorgeous, sparkling shades of champagne have now arrived, and they’re waiting to be added to your collection. From Golden Eclipse to Exagger-Eyes and Sunlit Glow, these dreamy colours are both impactful and silky-smooth, packing a punch with each swipe of their glow-glide texture. To use the product, grab either a blender brush or your fingertips to apply a light wash of colour for a weightless daytime look, or, build up multiple layers for a more intense, iridescent finish.

Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation

Hourglass’ new foundation, launching this month, is the perfect lightweight, buildable formula – destined to keep your skin fresh, lovely and glowing throughout each and every season. Lasting for up to sixteen hours, this vegan, cruelty and gluten-free product is laced with white tea extract, vitamin E, and antioxidants, delivering a natural finish and minimising the look of fine lines and imperfections. To apply, prep your skin with both moisturiser and primer, apply a pea-size amount of foundation to the centre of the face, then simply blend outwards – gently buffing into your skin before building the product to the desired level of coverage.

Morphe M439 Buffer Foundation Brush

Whilst makeup brushes are undoubtedly essential, far too often, those that are high-performing can be particularly cruel. When it comes to Morphe, however, their new premium brushes are 100% vegan – promising precision with each use. Here at Voir, we recommend their buffer foundation brush to begin with, as its full, domed shape provides the necessary density to apply foundation both evenly and flawlessly. If you’re hoping to start a collection of synthetic brushes, what better way to start than with this one?

R.E.M. Beauty Sweetener Concealer 

Whether your a fan of Ariana Grande or not, there’s no denying that her other-worldly beauty brand, r.e.m. beauty, consistently produces products that are just as show-stopping as their creator. This month, a new concealer offers buildable coverage that brightens, highlights, conceals and corrects, infused with ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and ashwagandha, to name a few. By doubling up as skincare, this product creates a flawless finish that promises to shine through both with, or without, makeup atop it, offered within a line of 60 shades to ensure it’s suitable for everyone. For brightening, just one of the concealer’s many functions, choose a shade at least 1-2 shades lighter than your skin tone – or use fair 1 for the ultimate, bright white highlight.
