Rixo Tinsley Wool Cardigan, €26

Looking for a comfy alternative to the hoodie you’re wearing repeatedly? Swap it for Rixo’s wool cardigan, with feel-good floral embroidery and an exaggerated collar that’ll look like you made an effort for the Zoom call, even if you didn’t bother with a bra.

The Instagrammable book

Chanel 3-Book Slipcase by Assouline, €75

The coffee table book is the simplest way to give the room you’re dying to redo a quick lift, something that’s never felt more important than it does right now. This new Chanel book trio, presented in a luxurious case, looks like a piece of art on your coffee table and is a beautiful read on the timeless brand’s heritage, jewellery and beauty.
