Editors kicked off the week with a long-awaited collaboration: for the third year in a row, Mates has teamed up with L’Occitane to treat us to a special seasonal menu. This time around, we discovered cocoa with lavender and a chestnut raf — each drink paired with a miniature hand cream. Just to give you a sense of scale, editor Masha already has a full-size L’Occitane tube stashed away for this winter. Best texture and hydration, no contest. We chatted, tasted the new drinks, even customized a bag charm, and wrapped up the day with a box of fresh新品. One of those moments when the weather outside doesn’t matter — all you can think about is trying something new. #editors@frontroww FirstPass

We’re not staying home just because it’s raining — today we’re warming up in Sorelle Era’s fitting room. The brand just dropped a new collection, and we couldn’t wait to see it in person. We’re so in love with Sorelle that we basically share the same pieces across two wardrobes — and this season will likely be no different. Masha was immediately drawn to the «Irene» jacket — the whole look came together in seconds. Meanwhile, Yana fell for the asymmetrical long-sleeve top «Amulet» and the bold «Blaze» jacket with its statement belt. Special mention goes to the perfect black dress, «Aurora». Girls, this one *needs* to be in your wardrobe — paired with sandals or boots, it doesn't matter: all eyes will be on you. Beyond that, the spring collection features layered silhouettes, richly textured fabrics, and intentional rawness. Together, these elements speak to the wild, untamed strength of womanhood — exactly what the brand team had in mind. #editors@frontroww FirstPass

A lovely Saturday from your editors <3 Yana recently realized just how stunning and vibrant this autumn has turned out to be—spontaneously beautiful. She never used to appreciate this season much, but now she’s thinking that was a real missed opportunity. She shared some fresh photos and recent snapshots on social media. Drop your own pictures in the comments—how are your days unfolding? 📖😆🫖🥺🤓😄🥸☺️🌸😍 #editors@frontroww FirstPass

Wrapping up our St. Petersburg series with must-visit spots. Save this for your next trip. The “city center” here is fluid—our picks are based on local tips and gut feeling. Start with breakfast at “Sad”. Weather permitting, grab a seat on the indoor terrace. We got the tip from Sasha Burimova at Lichi—Editor Masha confirms: it’s worth it. For culture, visit the Anna Akhmatova Museum on Liteiny Prospekt. Get the audio guide and spend an hour exploring her world—ideal for a rainy day. Yoga fans: Hot Yoga 36 on Petrogradskaya is a game-changer. 40°C rooms, soft lighting, 90-minute classes. Might make you want to move here. During White Nights, we sought terrace views. Top pick: AGA restaurant. The owner personally prepared our cheese spread—just because he loves guest chats. Must-tries: tartare, truffle pasta, Caesar with anchovies. #editors@frontroww FirstPass

Last night would’ve made Tyra Banks herself envious—all thanks to Yuli Mess’s birthday celebration. We always cherish the love and care our friends put into crafting unforgettable events, and this one was no exception. The theme? "America’s Next Top Model" (really, what else could it have been?). Every guest got to step into the spotlight—giving interviews, striking poses in the photobooth, fully embracing the runway spirit. And just like every episode, the night ended with a dramatic final selection: the hunt for the best photo. Spoiler: editor Yana made it all the way to the final round 💅🪩 It was the day everyone perfectly nailed Tyra’s assignment—and smiled with their eyes nonstop! #editors@frontroww FirstPass

While Moscow can’t seem to make up its mind about the weather, editor Yana pulled her trench coat back out of the closet and headed out for a walk through her favorite downtown streets. Feels like the perfect moment for layered outfits—so I’m sharing this go-to look right away. trench: CHOUX shorts & long: LIME bag: Coperni collar: Your Antihero ballerinas: LIME #editors@frontroww FirstPass

On Thursday evening, our editors attended the opening of the "Traces" exhibition, a collaboration between Lime and The Blueprint: "Artists — nominees from The Blueprint 100 list: Artem Filatov, Nadya Likhogrud, Vasily Kononov-Gredin, Sasha Lemish, Mana Nasybullina, Ulyana Podkorytova, and Aleksandra Patsamanyuk" — as noted in the exhibition’s description. The artists explore the “traces” people leave behind in the world. As the curators remind us, everything humans create is temporary — it decays and loses its context. Yet it's precisely in this fragility that the desire to preserve individual moments arises. The exhibition takes place on the 4th floor in the art space of Lime's flagship store. Highly recommended. #editors@frontroww FirstPass

At the end of July, editor Yana went on the trip of her dreams… I flew off to Japan!!! I’ve spent the last few days back in Moscow gathering my thoughts and photos after such an unforgettable mini-vacation. I’ll be sharing everything gradually — for now, enjoy some shots from our first stop: the enchanting Shinjuku Gyoen park in Tokyo. Spoiler: there was definitely some shopping involved, so stay tuned for useful tips and honest reviews.

We haven’t shared anything from the editors in a while—time to fix that. Here are some warm memories from a recent evening: the birthday celebration of Tania, the burning princess. The mansion was filled with such a thoughtfully crafted medieval atmosphere that dancing to a flute at the end of the night didn’t feel odd at all. This might have been the most精心 planned party yet—the castle core dress code didn’t scare anyone off, and suits of armor, ornate tapestries, and live music pulled everyone deeper into a real-life fairy tale. Alright, there were also quizzes about *Shrek*—don’t worry. Tanya, thank you for the invite and for such a magical evening! ⚔️🏰 #editors@frontroww FirstPass
