Really enjoyed the behind-the-scenes look at costume design in entertainment — the way Gina DeDomenico illustrates the layered collaboration between sketches, digital modelling and final garments is fascinating. It highlights how silhouette, narrative and craft all converge in meaningful ways.

Reading about the watches footballers wear made me think about how much style is tied to identity. It’s not just the price tag—it’s how the piece fits into your vibe. That’s one of the things I really appreciate about classic six. Their designs don’t scream for attention, but they always look polished and intentional, kind of like a great timepiece. I’ve been using their pieces to elevate my everyday wardrobe, and honestly, it’s made curating my look way easier without feeling overdone.
