THE FASHION COLLAB:
NA-KD Fashion x Josefine HJ
Influencer Josefine has joined forces with fashion chain NA-KD on another collection and we’re obsessed with the tiger stripe motif – be it on a robe-like coat, a shirt or a pair of shorts. The capsule also features a range of loungewear basics, as well as smarter pieces designed to be worn in the evening.

THE TRAINER DROP:

It’s been a minute since we’ve had a New Balance trainer to get excited about – but the brand’s new pink colourway of the 9060s has arrived just in time to see you through the rest of summer. Featuring advanced technology, the shoe is constructed with a dual-density midsole with ABZORB and SBS cushioning, while the exterior boasts a baby pink tone weaved with accents of white and silver.

THE ALBUM:
Austin by Post Malone
Post Malone’s fifth studio album dropped this month. The singer proudly notes that he plays guitar on every track, which gives the album a slightly softer feel in comparison to his past R&B/pop-inspired records. Named Austin – the singer’s birth name – it takes a deeper, more honest turn, starting with lead single ‘Chemical’. We’d also suggest listening to his most recent interview with Alex Cooper on the podcast Call Her Daddy.

THE POP-UP:
Happy Endings x Pavilion
Happy Endings, known for its epic ice-cream sandwiches, has opened a pop-up soft serve bar at Pavilion in Victoria Park. Until the end of summer, the team will add a different ice-cream flavour to its menu each week – either choose a single flavour or ask for two to be mixed in its double flavour twist machine. You can also try ice-cream sandwiches – with flavours like raspberry ripple or lemon and brown sugar sandwiched between two malt biscuits.
