Chic chatter

There seems to be a flurry of activity on the style front lately, with companies reeling from world events and economic influences, even as the fashion horde continues to help shape the trends today and tomorrow.

Here are some of the latest we have grasped from the grapevine:

Floral, but make it functional

The famous Singaporean brand Beyond The Vines just turned 10, and they’re celebrating in the cutest way possible — by teaming up with legendary textile icon Liberty for a limited-edition floral drop. Yep, it’s a crossover of style and history, blending Liberty’s iconic prints (150 years strong!) with BTV’s clean, functional design game.

The collab features three major prints straight from Liberty’s archives — Clio, Archive Gingham and Nell, Annie & May — all reimagined across Beyond The Vines’ fan-fave Crunch Carryall Series plus some everyday essentials. Think laptop sleeves, lunch bags, pouches — the works.

Dropped in two parts, the collection gives your daily carry a total glow-up. Leading the launch? The Crunch Carryall in three sizes and all three prints — basically your new go-to for looking put together and staying organized.

Floral but make it functional — this one’s for the girlies (and everyone, tbh) who love a bit of heritage with their utility.

Thai star goes local

Thai heartthrob Pond Naravit Lertratkosum is officially making waves in the Philippines as he joins Ever Bilena as their newest brand ambassador — marking his first-ever PH endorsement and the brand’s first collab with a Thai celeb!

Known for hit GMMTV series like Fish Upon the Sky, Never Let Me Go, We Are, Our Skyy, and Leap Day, Pond has captured hearts across Asia with his charm, talent, and boy-next-door vibe. He’s also part of the boy group PROJECT Jasp.er under RISER MUSIC, proving he’s got the full idol package.

This team-up is a big win for Narawins and PangPonds, with exciting drops, exclusive promos and fan-centered events in the works. Pond’s set to rep some of Ever Bilena’s best-sellers — so expect your makeup stash to level up soon.

Anti-aging excellence

The new Sisley’s Sunleÿa SPF 50+ is basically your summer BFF if you want to protect your skin and keep it looking snatched. It’s a high-key anti-aging sunscreen that helps fight off wrinkles and saggy vibes caused by the sun — all while giving you that glowy tan.

What makes it cool? It’s got this new G+ complex (aka fancy natural ingredients like seaweed extract and adenosine) that helps your skin stay looking young and fresh. The texture? Creamy but super lightweight, melts right in, no greasy mess or weird white cast — just a smooth, velvety finish. Oh, and it smells chef’s kiss.

Bonus: it won’t budge with sweat, water, or heat, and it doesn’t sting your eyes — so you’re good to go from beach days to brunch dates without stressing.
