I love the twist on these mint hoops from Starfish Project.

I think mint can be a great way to bring some color to your face, and is a fun way to complement other spring colors like blues, pinks, and purples.

The hoops are $42 at Nordstrom and at Starfish Project’s website.

(I’m not familiar with the Starfish Project one way or another; it describes its mission as “help[ing] exploited women and girls experience freedom, establish independence and develop careers.” You can see their website here and their profile on Charity Navigator here.)

The Brands Worth Shopping

LE BOP

Shopbop’s own line has been one of my most-worn brands this year. The quality-to-price ratio is unreal, and at 20% off it’s a no-brainer. The Zadie Polo keeps selling out — grab it while it’s in stock and on sale.

Ulla Johnson

Ulla Johnson makes you feel dressed up without trying too hard. Her spring pieces lean into beautiful prints and relaxed silhouettes — exactly what I want for warm-weather entertaining and weekends.

AGOLDE

The Indra Shorts have been one of my most-clicked Shopbop items this month. AGOLDE denim holds up better than almost anything else I own. If you need denim shorts this spring, this is the moment.

Love, fashion, and star power collided at the premiere of The Return of Arinzo as Priscilla Ojo and her husband, Tanzanian music star Juma Jux, made a striking entrance that instantly commanded attention.

Priscilla Ojo—widely known as @its.priscy—is a Nigerian actress, model, and influencer, and the daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo. She has built a strong presence in fashion and entertainment, amassing millions of followers while balancing acting, brand partnerships, and her own fashion ventures  . By her side, Juma Jux (born Juma Mussa Mkambala) is an award-winning Tanzanian R&B and Afropop artist known for hits across East Africa and beyond  . The couple, who married in 2025, have quickly become one of Africa’s most talked-about cross-cultural power pairs  .

For the premiere, Priscilla leaned into sculptural glamour in a white off-the-shoulder gown featuring a corseted bodice, exaggerated hips, and a softly draped neckline. The look was elevated with a dramatic wide-brim hat and a layered pearl choker that framed her face, adding a bridal-inspired finish. She accessorized with a spherical embellished clutch and metallic pointed-toe heels, completing a look rooted in structure and femininity.

Juma Jux complemented her in a neutral-toned ensemble anchored by a long camel overcoat layered over a partially unbuttoned shirt, exposing layered necklaces. His pinstriped trousers and pointed boots added a tailored contrast, while stacked bracelets and tinted sunglasses brought a contemporary edge.

Together, the duo delivered a coordinated aesthetic—her look defined by sculptural precision and softness, his by relaxed tailoring and tonal layering—creating a visual balance that felt intentional and cohesive.

The couple’s appearance at the Arinzo premiere underscores their growing influence not only in music and film circles, but also in fashion, where their coordinated style moments continue to resonate across the continent.

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

I’m totally in love with the color of this sheath midi dress from Boss. We’ve professed our love for the light blue suit around here for years, so this is right up my alley. I would pair this with a white blazer for a gorgeous summer-y look, but there is a coordinating jacket if you want to do a column of color. 

The dress is $549 at Nordstrom and comes in sizes 0-18. It’s also available in “pumice.”

The Best Spring Trends of 2026 – From sporty accents to new shapes in workwear

Today is officially the first day of spring, which means it’s time to start thinking about the best spring trends. Right now, we’re taking inspiration not just from the spring/summer 2026 runways, but also the fashion month that just wrapped. On the streets of Paris last month, show-goers were starting to debut the best of new season, and just about everyone in the fashion industry was running to Chanel to nab pieces of Matthieu Blazy’s first collection (especially the shoes!) Which leaves us with just one question: How can we update our wardrobes to match this energy?

This spring, designers not only introduced new iterations of classics, but gave us new ideas for styling, like the T-shirt sandwiches we saw at Lii and Versace. They introduced new wardrobe builders, such as low-rise skirts at Chanel, and continued to lean into rising trends, like the balloon pants at Altuzarra and Ashlyn. There were also statements made of juxtapositions, whether you lean sporty like Prada or ultra lady-like (but with a sense of ease) like at The Row.

There are so many new ideas for how to get dressed this spring. Below, I outline the key trends to shop now.

Layers! On Layers! On Layers!

When it comes to layering this spring, more is more, and designers are inspiring us to get creative with color-blocking. Jil Sander makes the perfect T-shirt and sells it in a three-pack, which is the ideal starter kit for putting together a heavily layered look. We’re also charmed by the one-stop-shop option, i.e. Lii’s runway version that comes already partially layered—making it effortless to get the look. These funky layers look best for spring with a pair of jeans and ballet flats or trousers and sandals. The key is to balance the classics with flair.

Spring Into Workwear

Clockwise from top left: Boss, Bottega Veneta, Kallmeyer, Chanel

Getting dressed for the office this spring should feel fresh, and an in-between transitional jacket can help you get there. The new blazer shape is cropped with no collar; it will look just as chic commuting to work as it does at the office and out for happy hour after. You could also take a cue from Chanel and zhuzh up a jacket you already own with a pop-of-color flower pin. On the bottom, try a pencil skirt that comes with a belt (just make sure it’s low-rise), or invest in pinstripe pants in a softer trouser shape—they’ll look just as good with a white t-shirt and flats for the weekend.

Scarf Dressing

Silk scarves were once thought of as old-fashioned, but this season, designers made them into a cool-girl hero item. From the perfect going-out scarf top (you could also wear it on vacation!) to scarf-print pants and scarf bags, these key pieces all make a statement. Pair your silk top with a pair of black cigarette pants and pumps for a chic night out. To style your silk pants, mix in a scarf bag for pattern play but add a white t-shirt and sandals for a cool pared-back look.

Sporty With Spice

Clockwise from top left: Prada, Loewe, Prada, Celine, Loewe

Sporty silhouettes and fabrics were given a sophisticated remix on the runways. From elevated parkas in bright colors (great for layering, as seen at Loewe) to bright shorts and funky sneakers, these separates look best when incorporated into your everyday wardrobe. Swap your suede jacket for a technical one in a fun color or add colorful sneakers to your trouser-and-top uniform to add some joy to your office look.

Alsace Rocks Consumer Walk Around Tasting

Fresh from retaining two Michelin stars at Terre at Castlemartyr Resort, Executive Chef Lewis Barker is in Dublin for a one-night-only takeover at Library Street on Monday, 27th April, 2026.  Barker is bringing the team from Terre to deliver a specially created four-course menu that introduces his culinary DNA to the city.

Before arriving in Cork in late 2025, he spent a decade in heavyweight kitchens from Europe to Australia and Singapore, becoming the youngest chef in Singapore to win a Michelin star at just 27. Now at Terre, he’s evolving that global experience into something that’s also deeply connected to and reflective of his immediate Cork and wider Irish landscape.

The evening at Library Street offers an intriguing look at what Lewis Barker is creating at Terre, and diners can expect a multi-sensory menu that reflects his technical precision and focus on flavour. It’s also an opportunity to catch a chef of this calibre in a room this relaxed and intimate, doing exactly what he does best.

The four-course menu is €150 per person (+ booking fee), with a wine pairing available for €79. Seats are extremely limited and the evening begins from 6.30pm.

Venue:  Library Street Restaurant, 101 Setanta Place D02 W3Y7 Dublin 2

Time:    18:30 – 23:00

Nightlife in Ireland is in decline; there were 500 active nightclubs in the year 2000 and now there are less than 100*. Dancing, music and the arts are integral to Irish culture. Changing licensing laws, Covid, and economic forces have all collided to challenge a once vibrant sector.

Give Us the Night is a volunteer group that has set out to revitalise Irish nightlife. The group campaigns for change through revised licensing laws, later opening hours, and regulation reform. Co-founded by Sunil Sharpe and Ciara Power, the group was created in response to the proposed change in venue closing times in 2004 and continues to make crucial progress for dance spaces and the people that fill them.

Recently, the new Hoxton Hotel on Exchequer Street faced backlash, resulting in two protests, after it sought an injunction against its neighbouring restaurant and late-bar, Yamamori Izakaya. A squeeze on nightlife and cultural spaces has restricted those seeking a place of freedom and connection to a handful of buildings. Following the recent closure of The Complex, now more than ever, there is a need to protect our cultural spaces and nightclubs

Give Us The Night has suggested providing more multi-use spaces that merge art, culture and hospitality, while also facilitating dancing. Adapting already existing organisations could prove to be a vital way of keeping the dance fire burning.

A significant change is needed to maintain a culture that can not only survive but thrive. Give Us The Night is at the forefront of this change.
