Hailey Bieber Models Mango’s New Collection 

Mango has always been my go-to on the high street (as well as Zara, of course). The high street retailer offers sophisticated, modern, powerful, and luxe-looking clothing, without the high price tag. 

Whether it’s a last-minute suit or something easy for a holiday, Mango always has the perfect piece. And it turns out, Mrs Justin Beiber – Hailey Bieber, agrees.

The style icon, with her breezy LA girl style, just fronted Mango’s summer 2026 campaign. Titled Craft Your Own Story, the new drop leans into Bieber’s current off-duty style and is filled with trendy and wearable summer essentials, including micro-shorts, sculpted crop tops and mini dresses. 

Of course, with so many brilliant pieces on offer, my wish-list is fairly long. But these standouts are my favourites. 

Mango’s Oversized Jacket

Price: £60

Red is the cool-girl way to add a bold pop of colour, stepping away from predictable florals and pastels, and this standout piece is destined to sell out first. It’s got an oversized design, a funnel neck, and is made from cotton.

Mango’s Cross-Over Halter Dress

Price: £38

If you’re still looking for your 2026 LBD and your style is Hailey Bieber–coded, you’ll love this. It’s a cross-halter neck, fitted mini dress in a cotton blend.

Mango, Fitted Open-Back Dress

Price: £40

This one is very much covered at the front but open at the back. It could be something you’d choose for a formal summer party or to wear for a special dinner on holiday.

Mango Check Mini Shorts £40

These flirty micro shorts are destined to sell out fast. Made from 100% cotton in a cute blue plaid design, wear yours with a sleek T-shirt or technical jacket.

Mango Check Crop Shirt £30

This check crop shirt is a versatile piece you’ll want to add to your sun-drenched summer wardrobe. It pairs perfectly with shorts, skirts, and trousers.

Mango Suede Shoulder Bag

Price: £199.99

If you’re on the search for a soft suede, slouchy, scrunchable shoulder bag, you’ll want to get this fast. It’s the 9-to-5 bag you’ll want to carry all week long.

Mango, Rectangular Frame Sunglasses

Price: £19.99

The classic rectangular-frame sunnies are universally flattering, with total UV protection and a category 3 filter.

Mango, Combined Leather Heeled Sandal

Price: £100

This one sits somewhere between casual and dressy thanks to the heel. It feels like a mix between a Birkenstock and a clog, super comfortable, but still chic enough to dress up.

Mango, Ruched Strapless Dress

Price: £60

This blue ruched strapless dress is the prettiest blue dress we’ve seen, and it’s calling to the sea, and it’s one we’ll wear when we’re by the seaside.

Mango, Two-Tone Contrast T-Shirt

The ’90s and ’00s top layering trend is back and Mango just made it easy.

 Price: £25

Mango, Dots Bomber Jacket

Price: £65

Combine two of this spring’s best trends with this high-neck polka dot bomber. Bonus points if you layer it over a boho dress.

Icons, Reimagined for Flit Flops

FitFlop- the chunky flip flop sandal, designed with a moulded sole and heel to enhance your walk and work the leg and bum muscles – presents a collection inspired by the legendary artist Keith Haring’s iconic visual language.

Emerging from the streets and subways of New York, Haring’s work captured the energy and rhythm of everyday life. This energy carries through the collection, translating his unmistakable linework into footwear designed for life beyond the gallery.

Rooted in how we move, connect and experience the world together, each design come in his trademark colours of red, black and white.

40 years on from Haring’s New York Pop Shop, his work remains a symbol of energy, accessibility and human connection.

Emerging from 1980s street culture, he built a visual language that lived beyond galleries, bringing art into everyday life through bold, immediate forms that continue to resonate today.

The Collection

Haring’s most recognisable motifs are reimagined across a curated set of silhouettes, from trainers to sandals and slides.

Each style is designed as a moving canvas, with figures placed to follow the natural rhythm of the foot. Uppers, straps and heel counters become points of expression, creating a sense of flow with every step.

Built with FitFlop comfort technology, including pressure-diffusing midsoles and lightweight cushioning, every design moves with you, making each step part of the expression.

Prices range from £50 – £150.

They’ve been seen on the Balearic beaches of Mallorca and Ibiza this summer already.

The facekini is a mask designed for swimmers and beachgoers that covers the head and face, revealing only the eyes, nose, and mouth. The mask is made of the stretchy fabric commonly used in bathing suits, and comes in different colours and patterns.

I for one am all over this, because as I’ve got older the sun has really started to affect the skin on my face, with sun spots, impetigo and premature aging.

Think full-face, balaclava-style masks made from UV-resistant swimsuit fabric. 

Why are they worn?

• Sun Protection: They offer maximum defense against damaging UV rays and prevent unwanted tanning. In East Asia, fair skin is deeply prized, and these masks prevent tanning and sun spots.  
• Environmental Hazards: Originally invented in Qingdao, China, in 2004, they are also widely used by beachgoers to protect the face from jellyfish stings, crabs, and biting insects.  
• Cultural & Fashion Impact

While they initially gained global notoriety as a quirky “bizarre beach trend,” they have become highly mainstream. What started as a functional item—frequently worn by older swimmers at the beach—has evolved into a major fashion accessory. High-end labels and street-style brands now feature facekinis as a core part of urban outdoor wear.

Welcome to the May instalment of Zips It Up, and whilst I’m sat in my Balearic ‘office’, things are hotting up outside here in the Med.

May is a beautiful month to go Balearic. It’s still ‘quietish’ tourist-wise, the temperature is not too hot (yet still summer-like) but you can still sleep at night without air-con. And the mozzies haven’t buzzed into town just yet.

If you’re contemplating changing your footwear to accommodate the weather, check out Chanel’s new ‘Barefoot Sandals’, which are basically the ankle strap only. Absolutely nothing else, so you are literally walking ‘barefoot’. And they are rumoured to cost a whopping £1000, although it’s currently hard to verify the exact price online.

And as we enter wedding season, how about upstaging the bride in this little number? This is the Balenciaga ‘Cardboard’ dress which comes in at around £8,000. You’re sure to turn heads in the chapel wearing one. You can even write the hymn lyrics on it, if you fancy personalising things.

So, in this issue, we’ll check out which 2026 swimwear trends you should invest in. And, as we’re heading for festival season – here’s your one-stop shop for everything boho and festie fashion. LEFT BANK SIX… Nicole’s collection changes constantly but I managed to get down and check out her boutique featuring the ultimate Capes, boho fringes bags, Kimonos and killer denim.

She also has an amazing array of accessories and jewellery. Here’s a sneak peak. Plus, look out for more videos on my socials this week.

Nicole can also mail out items to you. Check out the Facebook and Instagram accounts.

Onto this month’s issue… x

Usually, my first stop after touching down in either Mallorca or Ibiza is to visit my local Mercadona supermarket. Firstly for the sensational freshly squeezed orange juice from the self-juicing machine, and secondly for the coconut ice cream served in a half coconut shell. But always for food – I never really visited the beauty aisles before now. But over the past week, I have noticed a massive surge in instagram, TikTok and Facebook posts, highlighting Mercadona’s fast booming beauty dupes. Influencers from all over the world are absolutely raving about Mercadona’s cult products – selling for a few Euros but based on designer products that are WAY more expensive.

Mercadona’s cosmetic brand, Deliplus, reigns as the ultimate source for viral beauty dupes, offering identical finishes and formulas at a fraction of the cost. 

There are far too many excellent choices to mention, but check out some of the options on your socials by simply typing ‘Mercadona Beauty Dupes’ and you’ll be in a rabbit hole for hours. Here are some examples.

Top Makeup & Skincare Dupes

• Charlotte Tilbury Dupes: Mercadona’s liquid luminous and matte blushes are widely celebrated by beauty creators as direct, low-cost alternatives to the viral Charlotte Tilbury Wand blushes. Everything from the lipglosses and lip liners are almost identical to Charlotte Tilbury’s range and they literally cost 3 Euros.

• Dior Serums: The Regent Skin Serum (featuring micro-capsules) is frequently compared to the luxury Dior Capture Youth/L’Or de Vie glow serums. 405 euros but less than 10 euros at Mercadona.

• La Roche-Posay: Mercadona’s classic Thermal Water spray is a staple dupe for La Roche-Posay’s soothing facial mist, perfect for sensitive skin. I have the ‘dermick Aqua de Avena Aver spray which was around 3 euros and it’s a life saver in Summer.
• High-End Fragrances: The supermarket’s perfume aisle is famous for its spot-on dupes. A few widely accepted matches include:
• Soplo: A dupe for Narciso Rodriguez For Her

• Elección: A highly sought-after dupe for Chanel’s Coco Mademoiselle
• Extra Time Likes: Compares closely to Carolina Herrera’s Good Girl
• Amor: Mimics Cacharel’s Amor Amor 

Hair & Body Picks

• Hair Plex Range: The Plex Repair serum and mask mimic the highly-priced Olaplexand Colour Wow treatments, offering thermal protection up to 230∘230∘C for a fraction of the cost. 

• Body Mist: The viral pistachio body mist (often compared to the famous Sol de Janeiro mists) frequently cycles through special promotions and sales. 

And just like that, summer is pretty much upon us. After months of braving the cold and rain, there’s no better feeling than basking in the sun in a bikini or one-piece. Naturally, half the fun of summer lies in blasting out the very latest and most bouji in swimwear trends

If you’re anything like me, it’s a simple black bikini or leopard print one piece. Boring, I know, but we all come in different shapes and sizes. But perhaps this summer I might push the boat out, and try one of these three huge trends when it comes to basking under the Mediterranean sun.

SCALLOP

This style is all about the scallop shell shaped frame and neck (or chest) line. Think wobbly outlines and you’ve got it. Here’s what I mean:

Polka Dot

Perhaps a little too ‘cutesy’ for me, and bordering on ‘Blue Rinse in Benidorm’ (images of much older ladies, born in the 1950s, spring to mind). Here’s what I mean:

Lace-Up

This is the best of the bunch for me… safe, with a touch of risqué detail. It leaves a little bit of mystique in tact. Here’s what I mean:

I’ve never really been much of a fan of Stella McCartney (despite loving her Dad’s work). However, I appreciate the fact that she refuses to use any animal products whatsoever in her collections. Nonetheless, they’ve always been a little on the bland side for me. But Stella’s just dropped an interesting collab with H&M. She describes the collection as a “joyful yet sleek, eco-conscious array of crystal-adorned denim, sequinned dresses and chic shirt sets” .  

The range is an homage to McCartney’s back catalogue of looks, with Falabella chains, cherry motifs, sharp tailoring and logo bags all making a covetable appearance, firmly reigniting ‘Stellamania’ across the sartorial globe.

It comes 20 years after McCartney’s original collaboration with the high-street brand, making her the first designer to be invited back to H&M towers. To be fair to H&M, they DO create the best celebrity designer collaborations, evidenced by the fact that everything sells out pretty much on day one.

This collection will undoubtedly be gone in nanoseconds, so add the best pieces (below) to your basket while you still can…

Welcome to the April edition of the all new Balearic Amanda Zips It Up for Summer 2026.

I’ll be reporting on all your S/S Fashion and Lifestyle every month to keep you looking and feeling on trend for festivals, balearic beaches and beyond.

Catch me on The Jo Show every month on www.wavemallorca.com directly from Palma Mallorca, this month coming to you live on Tuesday 21st April at 11am.

As we’re still transitioning from Spring into Summer (and we’ve certainly had some wet and windy weather) – I’ve got the must-haves to see you through the unpredictable seasonal temperatures from day to night and those bathroom essentials to keep you on top form, whatever the weather.

Carolyn Bessette Kennedy has become a fashion icon to a whole new generation of young women, almost three decades after her untimely death, aged 33, thanks to the new hit drama Love Story. This is a limited 2026 TV series streaming on Disney +, dramatising the romance and tragic deaths of John F Kennedy Jr and the beautiful Carolyn Bessette.

Now, fans (like me) can recreate her effortlessly chic and minimalist style from none other than M&S.

While Carolyn loved Prada clothes, carried a Birkin and worked as a publicist for Calvin Klein, those with more modest budgets can emulate her ‘quiet luxury’ wardrobe with a £26 white shirt and a £20 black tote bag from the high street giant.

Branded the ’90s Edit’, the capsule collection is marketed as a ‘nostalgic and wearable’ collection that signals a ‘renewed appreciation for the enduring appeal of 90s style’.

Campaign shots featuring a willowy blonde model appear to replicate some of the most famous snatched photos of Carolyn strolling through the streets of New York in her signature camel coat, loafers and a black headband.

She’s accompanied in some images by a male model, holding her hand or pushing a bike – perhaps a nod to ‘America’s Prince’, John F Kennedy Jr , the other half of New York’s ultimate “It” couple of the 1990s.

Standout pieces include a Pure Cotton Girlfriend Shirt. Carolyn famously elevated a white shirt into evening wear when she paired it with a floor-skimming tiered skirt for a black-tie gala at the Whitney Museum of American Art.

The high street hero has also recreated Carolyn’s denim collection including a kick flare, cropped style, as well as bootcut jeans that retail for £38 and £26 respectively.

Carolyn’s fondness for classic outerwear is well-documented, and M&S’s new collection comes equipped with a lightweight, camel-coloured car coat for £70 – currently the brand’s number one bestseller.

Finally, there’s a spin on some of Carolyn’s favourite accessories – including cat eye sunglasses and headbands – to round off the collection.

Sarah Pidgeon’s portrayal of Carolyn has sparked a wave of copycat looks across the high street, with Uniqlo and Massimo Dutti also promoting their own edits.

Carolyn’s glittering life came to an end in July 1999, in a plane crash that also killed her husband JFK Jr and her sister Lauren.

Pure Cotton Car Coat  £70

Pure Cotton Girlfriend Shirt  £26

High Waisted Kickflare Cropped Jeans £38

Lace Detail Knee Length Slip Skirt  £30

How much do I love Zara? SO much. It’s hard not to want everything on their website, as it’s all cut so beautifully with plenty of fresh feels, bold details and directional cuts.

I generally steer away from too much pattern, but polka dots are a classic having a moment right now, and you could style this balloon skort with a crisp white shirt or a tee and black blazer to give it a sophisticated spin. The same with these wide leg trousers, which balanced with a knitted tank or turtleneck, bring just the right amount of Spring Season energy.

As the sun becomes stronger, I suggest buying a cheaper pair of sunglasses in a new style before you invest in the designer version – these aviator shields are the pair that caught my eye for the season ahead. Here’s my pick of the best wardrobe essentials from the Zara 2026 Spring drop.
