From tenniscore fits to snack subscription boxes, these are the items we’re splurging on post-payday
What’s on your shopping list? is the question we’ve been answering in the woo office, following last month's instalment of wedding guest wear, the hottest trainer trends and skincare to get your complexion glowing just in time for summer.
If you’re saving up for a holiday right now, why not go for Seoul? We’ve documented everything to see, taste and do in the South Korean city in this helpful guide. Then there’s also this summer’s biggest musical events to spend your paycheque on – our festival planner breaks down the best of the best, whether you’re a dance music head or prefer something more wellness-oriented, we got you!
Read on below for the clothes, books, experiences and scents that we’ve been eyeing up, from Challengers-inspired courtside looks to the juiciest beach reads.
“I’m quite a keen swimmer and YouSwim are one of my go-to brands for practicality, comfort, versatility and style! I get lots of compliments on my other styles at the local lido but for sunnier climes I’ve had my eye on their new triangle tie style, in shade Yuzu, for a summer lounging on the beach.” – Elli Weir, Head of Social
“I have been literally obsessed with this smell for months – it’s time to take the plunge and secure it for the summer.” – Fabiana Fiamingo, Art Director
“I’ve been living in this tee ever since I got it and you should too! The print is super cute – it spells “urgh” in electric blue so check and check in terms of mood and a trending colour. Oh, and it’s made from organic cotton and eco-friendly dyes. Good for you and the planet.” – Darshita Goyal, Senior Writer
“Sunglasses are already my accessory of the summer. I have a couple of fun coloured ones in my collection, but now need a trusty pair that can go with everything.” – Abby Wood, Production Assistant
“I’ve recently taken up tennis as a hobby, so I need to look the part with an all-white set ASAP.” – Gaia Curti, Production Manager
“I’m in a bit of book slump at the minute (I’m on a woman-in-20s-in-crisis literary comedown that had me in a chokehold for the last four years) and with Japanese fiction being one of my faves, I thought I’d try the much anticipated translation of Japanese bestseller Butter. The novel combines food writing and true crime, with a story about a female gourmet cook and serial killer and the journalist intent on cracking her case. Best of all, it’s based on the real life ‘Konkatsu Killer’. You bet I’ll be hooked.” – Elli Weir, Head of Social
“When girl dinner became a trend, I felt personally validated because I love snacks. This subscription box surprises you with a collection of handpicked treats from a different country each month. (April was a Finland box and I got Moomin candy, does it get better than that?!)” – Darshita Goyal, Senior Writer
“My old boots are done for. It’s that time of the decade where I buy a new pair of hiking boots.” – Gaia Curti, Production Manager
“I can’t wait to read this book by legendary music journalist Simon Reynolds – with chapters on Rustie, Burial and SOPHIE, I’m interested to see how he ties various genres together and talks about their influence on contemporary pop.” – Felicity Martin, Head of Editorial
“I blame this wishlist for my last purchase (in the black colour). I’m now back on the market for the green colourway, too…” – Holly Allen, Marketing and Research Assistant
“I’m obsessed with anything Maxine Peake does, so I’ll be buying tickets to her next show at Manchester’s newest arts venue. This show promises an intimate, immersive and voyeuristic take on a folk horror classic. Fantastic.” – Jasmine Day, Head of Production
“I’ve lost my headphones and I’m so in desperate need of a new pair!” – Holly Allen, Marketing and Research Assistant
“This product changed my life. It balances my skin’s redness so perfectly I don’t even need to use foundation anymore (thanks, K-beauty). Needless to say, I’m in need of a top-up!” – Bobbie Temple, Social Producer
“I cannot wait to start reading this book. A journalist and author (the best kind imo), Golby is on a mission to leave nothing unreviewed, from the feeling of being embarrassed to a houseplant, stay tuned.” – Darshita Goyal, Senior Writer
“One thing I’m certainly lacking is jewellery. It’s something I’ve been wanting to invest in for a long time and you simply can’t go wrong with Vivienne Westwood.” – Emerick Mukenge, Social Producer
“As a Virgo I love a bit of advanced planning, so I’m already thinking of ways to upgrade my upcoming autumn. C2C delivers all the good club vibes in the stunning location of Turin. What’s not to like?!” – Fabiana Fiamingo, Art Director

“Maybe it’s the #inspo from the London Marathon, maybe it’s a few indulgent weekends b2b, but I want to get more miles in this year (shout out the woo running club). This hydration vest will help me look the part, even if I don’t have the Strava mileage to back it up.” – Felicity Martin, Head of Editorial
“The book that all the TikTok girlies are talking about.” – Gaia Curti, Production Manager
“This black tie-front vest has been living rent-free in my mind – just the perfect piece for London spring” – Fabiana Fiamingo, Art Director
“I am packing away my winter boots and jackets, so it is time to refresh the summer wardrobe!” – Abby Wood, Production Assistant
“Surviving an apocalypse is a constant topic of conversation in my family. So, it’s only right we have the ultimate survival guide to make the right preparations.” – Bobbie Temple, Social Producer
“I’m in my hobby era, with my most recent endeavour being embroidery. I also happen to have a habit of buying vintage jeans which often come with holes – enter the Japanese art of sashiko stitching – so now I can actually stitch something pretty and practical.” – Jasmine Day, Head of Production
“Smelling good is massively important to me. It brings me confidence and certainly increases my charm by at least 10%. Who else but Tom Ford?” – Emerick Mukenge, Social Producer
“I was so excited to find a pair of swimmers that were different from your average. I am obsessed with the seersucker fabric and the bright green colour.” – Abby Wood, Production Assistant
