Every edge went soft this week

Suede, brunette, brown and blush all went soft at the edge this week. Cosmopolitan UK's cold-weather boho edit puts fringed suede and tassels over lace, corduroy and tall boots 1. Harper's Bazaar UK photographed Victoria Beckham on 13 October with dark brunette roots melting into warm honey-blonde ends, and calls the softer ombré this autumn's revival 2. ELLE UK's October nail edit went to tortoiseshell, a glass-like, melted-colour manicure 3. ELLE UK's anti-blush piece reads the same instinct on the face: muted rose-mauve kept at the centre of the cheek, skin left bare around it 4. On TikTok anti-blush has turned into a debate with its own explainer videos, and this week's beauty board runs #LadybugMakeup and #UglyNails beside it 5. These are familiar colours; the change is where they stop.
