And just like that, it’s the eve of March – and sorry to ask, but where TF is this year going? January was a little longer than we wanted, but February past us in the blink of an eye.

Seeing as spring is now a few weeks away, along with warmer weather, lighter mornings and evenings (thanks to the clocks going back on March 30), we’re celebrating by shopping some bright buys.

That’s right, this week’s edition of your exclusive Trend Trove has arrived, with a plethora of gorgeous goodies that you’ll want to add into your basket as soon as possible – because stock is going to go fast.

From glasses with the most adorable chilli print at Anthropology, to sunglasses we can’t wait to wear from Oliver Bonas.

We’ve also fallen head over heels for Lucy Tiffney’s new homeware collection with Next, featuring her signature hand-painted style and nature-inspired designs. The collection includes two main designs: Botanical and Folksy. You’ll find embroidered cushions, printed curtains, vases, and wall art in vibrant colours, with details like frills, fringes, and pom-poms.

Keeping with the home theme, Molly-Mae recently dropped the ultimate beauty bombshell. The beloved Laura Mercier Honey Bath (priced at £47) is making a grand return, and Molly-Mae is over the moon, calling it her ‘best news of 2025!’

As a true bath aficionado, Molly-Mae told her 8.5M followers that she’s tried ‘pretty much every bath product out there, and this one’s the winner,’ adding, ‘bath time just wouldn’t be the same without it.’
