It’s safe to say given the tumultuous year we’ve all had, finding joy in those small moments have become a high priority on all of our lists. With every day morphing into another, homes turning into offices and hobbies put on hold, Grazia’s fashion editors have put together our list of what’s keeping us going to hopefully inspire you.

There are the best new pieces to drop, exhibitions to ogle online, books in which to lose yourself and Instagram accounts to spark some new ideas. Count this as your little black book to get you through the week and try something new.

Here's what Sophie Henderson, senior fashion market editor, is loving this week:

Lizzie Fortunato, organic hoops, £145

My new year's resolution was to enjoy my jewellery-drobe, I'll be wearing a different item every day (still joggers on the bottom though). Lizzie Fortunato is a current favourite.

Hot Pottery, ceramics, from £12.50

UK-based and independently owned Hot Pottery makes getting your five-a-day a joy. Look out for soon to come candlesticks and jugs!

Tove, Roma coat, £625

Scoat? Carf? As far as winter hybrids go, coats with built in scarves are the top of my wishlist. Look to Tove and Totême for inspiration.

Aeyde, Robin scarf, £125

I'll be looking to silk scarves for a 2021 take on Zoom dressing. Aeyde's new collection also include positive mantras.

TU, Grey Marl Half-Zip Fleece, £10.00

Like so many of us, running has become apart of my daily routine for lockdown 3.0. I'm loving Tu Clothing's #MonthTuMove campaign, encouraging us to well, get moving. Warning this half zip fleece is so cosy it also encourages lounging!

Jemma Lewis Marbling

If tie dye was 2020's craft du jour, I'd like to make 2021 marbling's moment. Swirly, whirly gorgeousness that radiates calm.
