BLONDE: Marilyn Monroe on Netflix

Five Sayings from Marilyn We Should All Live and Dress By

What do you want to bet we're all going to want a platinum blonde bob cut soon and feel an irresistible urge to wear red lipstick? We are already hooked on the idea of Ana de Armas as Marilyn Monroe in director Andrew Dominik's new biopic "Blonde". The film, that is based on Joyce Carol Oates's book of the same name, puts the Hollywood icon in a whole new light. With this fiction film, we get a look into Marilyn's tumultuous private life and the price she had to pay for her fame. Add it to your must-watch list and set the reminder for September 23rd, because this won't be your traditional biopic. While we wait impatiently, we listed some of Marilyn's quotes and outfits to live by. Because "Everyone's a star and deserves the right to twinkle."

Curated for you: gift guide inspired by the basket trend
One of this year’s sweetest trends? The bur/boo basket. A simple basket with small, thoughtful treats as a reminder that the most meaningful gifts are the personal ones. Inspired by that cosy spirit, our gift guide 2025 celebrates slowing down and surprising someone “just because.” No occasion needed, just a little care. Soft knits, a cozy pyjama set, something sweet to share. Each gift in this edit brings comfort, calm, and connection. Small luxuries that make winter days warmer. Because it’s never about the size of the gift, but the feeling it leaves behind.
