My 5 Faves Of The Month: May 2026

There's something about finding pieces for your home and life that make everyday moments feel a bit more cinematic. A coffee in a beautiful mug? Better. Reading in bed? Delightful! Maifesting a plunge pool? Essential. This month's edit spans my home, wardrobe and beauty shelf, and the theme is romanticisation. 

These picks are the ones I've been reaching for, sending to friends and obsessing over. As always, I've pulled them all into one place so you don't have to go looking. Let's get into it.

This pink coffee mug from Niamh Hejsak is like pure serotonin in ceramic form. It somehow makes me feel like I’m the lead character in a Nancy Meyers film wheneverI have my morning coffee.

I’m obsessed with absolutely everything from  Letters of Clay. The handmade feel, the textures, the slightly imperfect beauty of it all it just feels calm and special and expensive in the best way. I need the numbers for my front door immediately.

This tumbler from BLOW Studio is one of those pieces that makes your kitchen shelf look curated even when the rest of your life isn’t. It would look amazing paired with a few shades.

I also can’t stop thinking about this quilted bedspread from Anthropologie. It’s giving effortless European summer bedroom energy.

My Pool | Let’s Manifest It

And finally, my future plunge pool. If you saw my @lpdathome stories you’ll know what I’m talking about. I’m manifesting HARD. I’m envisioning emerald tiles, icy margaritas, golden hour dips and pretending I’m in a boutique hotel somewhere in Italy instead of my back garden.

The “Get Your Flirt On” shorts from Free People are exactly what summer dressing should be: easy, flattering and a little bit flirty without trying too hard. I have them in three colours because I simply cannot get enough.

This striped beach set from M&S looks so much more expensive than it is. It looks perfect when thrown over swimwear or denim shorts.

I LOVE this bandeau swimsuit with metal detailing from M&S. Minimal, chic and the kind of swimsuit that makes you stand differently.

These shell balloon trousers from FARM Rio are pure joy in trouser form. If dopamine dressing had a mascot, it would be these.

And Uniqlo continues to quietly make the best basics on earth. This piece from Uniqlo is one of those wardrobe staples you end up reaching for constantly. It has a built-in bra, people! And you can trust me when I say it is super supportive, as I have it in three colours.

The Cream Luxe Blush from Sculpted by Aimee gives that expensive, healthy, “I drink green juice and sleep for eight hours” glow even when neither of those things are true.

Larry King Haircare Ride or Die Texture Spray is THAT girl. Hair instantly looks cooler, fuller and less freshly-washed-and-flat. It also smells amazing. My mate Lazza has done it again.

I love everything Violette FR makes, and the Plume eyeshadow makes you look like you naturally have incredible bone structure and mysterious French-girl energy.

I love Elizabeth Arden’s Eight Hour collection and this body cream is no exception. It sinks right in and keeps skin so hydrated – I’ve been using it on my new tattoo and it works wonders.

Lastly, Jo Malone Beach Blossom Cologne smells like sun cream, warm skin and a holiday romance you should probably avoid but absolutely won’t.

And that’s it! Now go out and enjoy this miraculous heatwave. See you next week!

Love,
