Refinery29 Loves: Everything To See & Shop In January

Welcome to Refinery29 Loves, the monthly news bulletin where you’ll find the best things to shop and see in fashion and beauty right now.

The month of January routinely gets a bad rap. Whether it’s winter blues getting everyone down in the dumps or the dreary weather forecast making us all want to hibernate inside, the post-festive period often feels like a write-off. However, we’re here to suggest that the end of party season can actually be a good thing, as it opens a whole new calendar year of exciting launches across the beauty and fashion space.

Whether you are looking for a way to elevate your loungewear to the headiest heights of luxury or searching for skincare to help you resurface your complexion for the new year ahead, we’ve got you covered. From Sézane’s latest artistic collaboration to the moisturizer that’s sure to fly off the (digital) shelves, here’s what the fashion and beauty world is serving up in January.

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. All product details reflect the price and availability at the time of publication. If you buy or click on something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.

Mother x Clare V. Capsule Collection

 
Los Angeles-based brands Mother and Clare V. are teaming up for a capsule collection dedicated to their shared hometown. Made up of 10 pieces, including apparel and accessories, the collab pays homage to the local spirit, high-quality craftsmanship, and strong, diverse personalities found in L.A. — something that is seen in both the denim and handbags that the labels are known for, respectively. Choose from wide-leg pleated jeans, a denim vest, graphic T-shirts, floral tote bags, and more. Prices range from $59 to $345.

Rhode Pineapple Refresh


Rhode is known for many things: glazed donut skin, espresso martini lips, and now, a fruity pineapple cleanser. Created as a gentle, everyday balm-to-lather face wash, the product aims to boost hydration with a foaming formula that won’t leave the skin feeling stripped. The sunny colored cleanser boasts a list of sensitive skin-friendly ingredients including polyglutamic acid (a powerful hydrator), pineapple enzyme (a natural exfoliant), and green-tea extract (a soothing antioxidant). Designed for morning and evening use, the cleanser now takes the top spot in the Rhode five-step routine.

The Pineapple Refresh launches January 25th. Join the waitlist here

Vestiaire Collective Eliminates Seller Fees


Reselling designer pieces is about to become even more appealing thanks to Vestiaire Collective’s latest initiative. As of this month, the online luxury fashion reseller has eliminated seller fees on over 4,000 brands, including Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta, Celine, Chanel, Dior, Gucci, Loewe, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Thom Browne, Tory Burch, and so many more. That means anyone selling pre-owned items from these brands won’t incur a commission fee (previously, it was 12 percent), though the typical payment processing fee (3 percent) still applies. According to a press release, the brand hopes the move will encourage more people to take a more sustainable approach when cleaning out their closets.

Marie Oliver Swim & Cabana Collection

 
While Sarah Doggett Evensen, founder and creative director of Marie Oliver, was planning a vacation to the Italian Riviera, she found herself longing for swimwear with the type of bold, colorful and print-forward aesthetic her brand is known for. With this in mind, she created the Swim & Cabana Collection, a line of playful, pretty swimwear that includes one-pieces, mix-and-match bikini tops and bottoms, flowy caftans, and stylish coverups. The swimwear is also made with UPF 50, which means you’ll have a little extra, all-important sun protection built-in. Prices range from $85 to $298.

Diptyque’s Fleur de Peau Collection

By now, Diptyque needs no introduction.

For January, the Fleur de Peau Collection is getting a welcome expansion, adding the musk-, iris-and-pink peppercorn scent into three new products. For those who want something lighter than an eau de parfum, the new hair mist offers an airier alternative, while the body gel and hand and body balm are perfect for those who like to luxuriate at bath time.
