That's O-L-L-Y dot com. This week on the LuxGen Group Chat, we discuss Romeo Beckham's brave new entry to the film industry. Heated Rivalry, challengers, if they had a child, it is that. Half-Red again dropped the coolest soundtrack for the Dior Men show. The music is all unreleased music.

0:38I'm pretty sure those songs were like Catamon there, like Young Thug. Yeah, Young Thug. So cool. And the first model walked in, put the orcs in and then just starts walking. And finally, the coolest F1 collab you need to know about. And I like the aspect of female empowerment behind it. 100%. It's a collab with F1 Academy, which is still growing. it's their first time at silversome which is like mega it's a goodie don't miss it welcome back to the luxgen group chat this week i'm joined by india and anna welcome ladies hello how are we good how are you good we've had a crazy day haven't we yeah crazy week it's just been quite long but crazy week is crazy i'm glad to be here we're joining you at the end of a day end of the working day which actually some can say is quite a good way to wrap up the day and we're going for drinks after this yes we are um what has everyone been up to this week oh i went to the pub yesterday no actually this is a really good spot in waterloo so when you come out of waterloo station like five minutes away there's like a street of just like really cool bars pubs and restaurants so we went to this bar called cafe del marsh it's like 10 12 pound cocktails and then right across it is this really good thai restaurant called marie's cafe and it's really small it's actually just like like a really thin restaurant like really like sorry really like cozy and it's very very cheap you could get chicken chow mein for less than 10 pounds i'm real you could share like a platter thai starter platter that's like 10 pounds as well between like four people which is really good oh my god so that's like a really good evening like gals dinner sort of vibe i really need to become better romanticizing my evenings like working evenings yeah because i am literally like finish go home, make dinner, go to bed.

2:21And I don't like that for me. I'm like that to be fair. And it's really, yeah. And like Caroline at work as well, she's so good at like going out, meeting her friends, doing something. And then when people say like, oh, what'd you get up to last night? You actually have something to say. I never have anything to say. My favorite thing at the moment is trying to get into bed before Love Island starts. Yes. Having my Stanley ice cold with my snacks, which at the moment are a watermelon ice ollie from - You love them. Brown trees. Oh, okay. So good. That's so random. And three cubes of dark chocolate.

2:49It started on one and then it got to two and now I'm like, fuck it, three. Is it week three? Is that not why you're on three? But are you guys watching Love Island? It's mental. Who is not watching Love Island? Who's your favorite character? Ooh. I love Lorenzo. He is so funny. He's like so misunderstood, I think. Yes. I get him. Yes. I get him. And he's so like, he doesn't have to try hard to be funny. And I think that's what's so attractive about him. Not obviously just because of the way he looks, but like he doesn't have to try to be funny. He just is funny. Yeah. We're like, people will be trying too hard.

3:19He doesn't. Outfits today. I feel like you guys are channeling each other. Both got yellow on. What are you wearing? I've got my yellow ballet flats that I got in a market in Marbella. They have done me so well and I love them so much. I've got my Zara jeans on. And this is a vintage fine. I've got it for like five pounds. I really like the cut. But like, yeah, I really like the V-neck. And it just shows my necklace a bit. So it's really nice. And then just my regular jewelry. Love that. I have on a cost T-shirt. These are the best white t-shirts ever. They are the best. I feel like I have like five in my wardrobe that I just constantly rotate in like black, white, gray striping, have them all.

3:55This is a really fun blazer actually. It's got these really cool like jeweled embellishments on them. Yeah, so fun. This is ASOS. And then my trousers are from a range via ASOS, but it's more like they're premium wear on there as well, which they just feel really nice and they fit really nice. And then my little sandals are just Zara. and then my jewelry is kind of all over and earrings are ASOS, which are sold out. Nana is like begging me for these because they're sold out everywhere. And I wear them into office and she pulled me over and she was like, when and how did you get those earrings?

4:28And I was like, what do you mean? And I wasn't there. I sent her the link today because I've just come back in the stack. So good. What about you, Days? I have got a full Zara fit on today. Nice. I've just got a little Zara cami on, some balloon trousers and my ASOS kitten hair. You're very tonal. I love you. Very tonal. Very nice. Who's watching the World Cup? Me. Did you guys watch the Brazil and Japan game yesterday? It was so sad. It literally was like nail biting because Japan scored like within the first half an hour and everyone was like, oh my God, is Brazil gonna be kicked out so early on?

4:59And then Brazil scores, it was one all. And then I think Japan scored and then Brazil scored again and they scored again. And the Japanese player who kind of gave the final goal away to Martellelli who scored in the last minute, literally fell to the ground and was in tears for 10 minutes like because it was it wasn't his fault but it kind of was his fault and like the brazil players literally had to help him up and like wait are japan like on par with brazil i don't think they're on par but they're good enough to get into the round of 32 so they've been kicked out which is so sad and it was really nice because at the end of the game all the japan players were bowing to the stadium and were bowing to the other players and it was just like oh it was so emotional and that's why i hate being an empath because I don't really care about Japan football, but in the World Cup, I'm like, oh my gosh, you guys should just stay in.

5:47That being said, though, I am happy that Brazil is still in because I think they're the favourites to win. Yeah, 100%. But no, it's fun. It's good. I love seeing all the different cultures as well, even online through the social media posts that people are making, as well as also the football matches themselves. It's just so fun. I feel like it gets everyone together, doesn't it, for a summer of sport? Yeah, literally, what can we celebrate tonight? Oh, what World Cup game is on? Let's go watch it and celebrate. Where are you watching it? Are you watching at home? Are you watching at the pub? I've done a mix.

6:15I've watched it at some pubs. I've watched it just at home, which I'm actually really enjoying doing, like just getting friends around, making some food, making some dinner and then watching. But then some of the games have been really late. All the Scotland games that I was watching were literally like 12, like one, two. Yeah. Oh, wow. I watched one when I got in from a night out. Yeah. And I was like, oh, might as well put this on. We lost. I watched the England-Khana game at the Hope and Anchor. and I was like one of the only Ghana supporters. No way. So obviously it was nil-nil, but cause England are technically quite a bit better than Ghana.

6:48Yeah. Ghana fans are only like trying to get a draw or just like one goal in. Whereas England fans were expecting to like thrash Ghana. So when every time they didn't score or we saved it, I was like the only one in the pub like screaming. And everyone like side-eyeing me. Did you have a top on? Yeah, I had a top on as well. Thank God. And my top is yellow as well. So I was like literally sticking out like a sore thumb. That's so good. But I was so happy that we are now through to the round of 32. Here we go.

7:19Shall we move on to Hot List? I feel like there has been so much going on. We've been yapping away at our desk. We have, literally so much. One thing I really wanted to bring up was the whole Bad Bunny Harry Styles. Have you been to it either? No. The Office have, haven't they? A mix of both. I know Charlotte's been to Bad Bunny. She's also been to Harry Styles. His girls have been to more Harry Styles than that. Bad Bunny, but guys, if you don't know, basically Bad Bunny's been performing at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, only recently. And then Harry Styles has had his plethora of number of shows at Wembley.

7:50He's going on, he keeps churning it out. Night one, night two, night three, back to back, insane. But the whole idea is who is hitting it better, like who's doing it better? I'm not gonna lie, Bad Bunny. He's killing it. The celeb status as well, like the people at the shows, we're talking like Maya Jama, Margot Robbie. Djokovic was in the casita in the casita so funny but like just I just feel like the vibe and like watching even like through TikTok the vibe is like electric that's what I was getting from Harry Styles maybe like on his last tour but like Bad Bunny oh my word it's just incredible and I think it's so impressive because Bad Bunny just does not speak any English at any of his shows it's like all Spanish everyone there is basically expected to understand or if you don't like just have a vibe and charlotte was actually like she only probably understood understood like three words of it but the whole time she was like having time with her life just nodding along to it to have that presence and that fan base and half of the people not even understand what you're saying that's mental absolutely mental and his stage presence is so it's almost like you don't want to like bring out your phone like you're just so in captivated and that was me watching it through a tiktok I can't even imagine being there but like I just think it's really interesting right now like the different dynamics of the different shows and what we're seeing online and what feels a bit more electric what's doing it for people what's not like i'm enjoying the the different sides but yeah that's one thing that's really caught my eye at the moment did you see fred again did the soundtrack to the dior show so cool how cool yeah and like the music is all like unreleased music i'm pretty sure there's songs with like catamon there like young yeah young so cool and the first model walked in put the orcs in and then just start no way and they all don't they all look like young ravers yeah they looked like little ravers 100 and i just think it's so cool having someone like fred again who i still think is like so like down to earth and like he's just like one of us and then he's like doing like the backing songs to this like huge stage of like a fashion house like that is insane um and like the music as well i think it just matched so perfectly like it was so elegant and like but like electronic music like the merge was just yeah when have you ever heard electronic music no or like like that like i feel like fred again has such a specific touch and like how he sort of executes his music and his vibe anyway yeah i just yeah that merging is just so cool he's having his moment right now because obviously he had the dropbox collab yeah he had his concert what did you go to this um gig alipali it was no phones allowed yeah he had his own photographers and own videographers taking all the footage of the night and was basically like you're not allowed to film anything but at the end of at the end of the gig we will give you all the content so you can pick and choose and upload whatever you have like he's just been all over and he defeated him.

10:27He's so smart. I'd be really interested to know what else he's gonna do next. Like I feel like he's now jumped into that fashion scene. And this sort of like guerrilla marketing. I feel like artists that are going into that space and doing, who was it recently that Drake putting his album in that ice cube. I feel like that is the way to make noise and disrupt, isn't it? Also I think music in itself, obviously it's been having its thing for forever. But right now I think more than ever, people engaging with like concerts and releases and like how music music is merging with certain like different sort of realms i think is so interesting and even like the way people are like hosting these concerts with like even like bad bunny like having the casita what celebs are going to be in there and all like these different people having their different takes i think it's really interesting and how people like as consumers are consuming it i think it's really fascinating it's just so much more than just music at the moment like everyone can make music yeah it's like how are you differentiating yourself from just a regular artist to like an icon status artist and i think those are the ones that are doing so well exactly because also now you don't need the ticket necessarily to the concert no you can watch it through tiktok yeah consume it through all these other touch points yeah how are you gonna make it fun yeah i'd love that just like his unlimited budget yeah do something so cool have you seen that romeo beckham is going to be starring in a queer tennis film.

11:46Honestly. In a queer tennis film. Called 40 Love. Yeah. We know he's - Yeah, no it is. It's like that. Yeah. Heated rivalry, challengers, if they had a child, it is that. Literally, but I think this is very brave. Like he's obviously - So brave. He's only 23. And it's his first acting career. He's a massive before. You know, the whole family have had - Yeah. Well, his brother's had his switch up in careers. I feel like there's a lot of, there are a lot of eyes on the Beckhams and their career moves. But they're in, they have their fingers in lots of pies. They are everywhere. Have you heard Cruise's new song?

12:18Yeah. It's really good. He's touring around Europe. He's like pop, sort of rock-ish, like borderline. It's giving like Beatles slash pop, isn't it? Yeah, like if the Beatles were reimagined in 2026. Like a Gen Z Beatles. Yeah, Gen Z Beatles. Like the whole music video concept is so simple and it's so basic, but it's very, it seems like it's very him. Like I know Cruise is like a best friend. I don't but it just seems so like native to him I saw it on Victoria Beckham's Instagram because she reposted it and I was like gosh he's actually really good at music obviously he's had a good leg to stand on but you can see that he's put the hard work and he's put the time in and he's got his own spin on it yeah exactly it seems very him it doesn't seem really like foreign to him which is great I just can't imagine him being an actor but that's the thing but also this it's coming out in November so like he's probably filmed this already I did not see this coming at all he is a very good tennis player though I really see yeah he just had he had a failed career at tennis.

13:12I think he did football. No, yeah, he was a tennis player and then went back into football, then came back to tennis. Because he's now got his football, vintage-y clothing brand as well. Yeah, Intra, that's sick. That's a sick election. Their jackets are so cool. Also, great timing for the World Cup. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, this will be interesting. Yeah, God, he's killing it right now. I wonder all these Ketan rivalry we saw had such a big moment and everyone is obsessed talking at Charlotte Collins more specifically. But it had such a moment. like I wonder if this is also going to have a bit of a play.

13:41They're saying it's, they've compared it to Hita Bravo. So does anyone know what the film is actually about? It is a tennis related drama, which is also quite relevant to. I guess it's quite fitting. Interesting, very fitting. So he's actually just going to be playing himself. Kind of like how Zendaya was like playing in Challenges. But he clearly is in, you know, he's a lead role. It's about a relationship. Gosh, I'm so intrigued. I actually can't wait for this to come out. I like how it's a film. I feel like you can just watch it, be obsessed with it and then move on. Whereas I feel like the whole series has become such a thing recently where people are like claws in, obsessed with episode after episode.

14:11Also, I feel like tennis is a sport that we had challenges, but it's sort of a sport that hasn't had a new lease of life. I feel like we saw Naomi Osaka yesterday. Did you see her Wimbledon? In her like kimono. So sick. Did she play in that? Yeah, no, she just walked onto the court with it. Fine, okay. But you know, Wimbledon are very strict dress code. I was going to say, how did that happen? She obviously got around it. Remember Yannick Sinner came on with a massive Gucci bag as well, which is like, how on earth did he get away with that? So I feel like they're testing boundaries with tennis, which is cool.

14:42That is fun. And I feel like that's so similar what you were saying before with sporting, having such like spotlights on them. I feel that we haven't really seen that with tennis. So like maybe this, maybe this will, I don't know, be the start of something with like fashion and this new film from your back. I'm like, it's cool. And obviously David Beckham is such a big fan of Wimbledon. So we were at Wimbledon yesterday. Romeo was there. David was there with his mom. I wonder if Romeo was getting some like, I don't know. Pips and trees. But also, this is just side note. So we saw David talking to Mary Berry.

15:14And then Poppy and I were on the way home. We were on the bus home. Anyway, she looked to my right and I see this really chic woman in this pink dress. I was like, oh, it looks like Mary Berry's dress. Oh, that's Mary Berry driving home. Driving home from Wimbledon. That's so funny. In her Porsche. You think she wouldn't have someone driving her? I know. She looks so good. Any other TV? What do you watch on Netflix? Oh my God, voicemails of Isabel. Have you guys seen it? Not yet, but I've heard. I've not heard of this. Guys, I need a new binge. And it's just a film, but everyone is saying it's like Netflix's best rom-com they've ever done.

15:47What? I'm actually not a big fan of a rom-com. No, neither am I. I'm speaking from a crowd. Kind of switched off as soon as you said that. I thought, oh, please be a documentary. But Anna, sell it to me, sell it to me. Guys, it's really, really good. Like, it's basically, almost think of it like an older grown-up version of The Fault in Our Stars, but not as sad. Erin, I quite like Voldemort. Yeah, like those books. It's really, really sad. And also I feel like if you had like a sister, I think watching that, oh, that's a tearjerker. Really? And my boyfriend, sorry to embarrass you, Mike, was bawling his eyes out in the first five minutes.

16:18He is one of the girls, I say it every time. Bawling his eyes out. Was he? Bawling his eyes out. Yeah, and like, I've had to watch it in like parts. I've not watched in the full length through. But as much as I've seen so far, it is really good. And I'm obsessed and like I'm invested in it. Okay. And I'm not really, I'm looking at the same. What, give us top line. Girl meets boy, her sister. There's a bit of complications there anyway. Unfortunately, the sister passes away. Sorry, made a spoiler. And their whole thing, through their whole relationship as sisters, she, they would always call each other.

16:51So now that she's no longer here, she would end up leaving voicemails. However, these voicemails are not going to her sister. It's actually going to this man. Like a random man. Random man. I still haven't yet to figure out how the man got the sister's phone. Anyway, and she's basically leaving these voicemails, like updating her whole life every single day to her phone. And this man's listening to it and he's become obsessed with her. And like, he wants to know more about her and like become in her life and learn more about her. And then their relationship. I'm so sorry. That sounds a bit creepy.

17:21It does. Say it out loud. It does sound like a wrong call. No, but it's done really well. If that was you, you almost wouldn't want to burst that person's bubble. I honestly think I would probably just let the messages keep coming. I think so. You'd have to. You couldn't just be like, oh, by the way, stop sending. Yeah. Like I don't care. Probably have thought form of therapy. That's exactly what they say in the film. I'm like, you can keep voicemails as well. I'm pretty sure. That would set me off. Yeah, it's a real tearjocker, but it's incredible. Going into voicemails as a thing is quite emotional.

17:52Like, yeah, do you sometimes scroll down and I'm like 20, 20 or as one from like your phone bill. And it's like, you have not paid this. And it's like, brilliant. So you have five gigabytes left. You are about to be in your overdraft. Or it's your mom like, for God's sake, pick up the phone. Oh, do you guys watch House of Dragon? No. Oh my God. House of Dragon season three. It just came out right. So basically House of Dragon is like prequel to Game of Thrones. Have you guys watched Game of Thrones? No, but Jack's obsessed. I know you brought my audience to you. I know. I don't even know. Basically, Game of Thrones is one of the best TV shows in the world.

18:32House of Dragon is the prequel. And they just come out with season three. And I watched the first episode last week. And I have not cried that much in ages. India. On the first episode of the series. So I don't want to spoil it. But something happens. And everyone's just in shock because it's the first episode. And that kind of triggers something. and it kind of makes you understand why the queen does what she does, why things are happening the way they are. I can't say much because I don't want to spoil it. You guys need to watch House of Dragon. It will have you hooked. It's amazing. Everyone watching House of Dragon, please, let me know what you thought.

19:12I was bawling. I was like... My boyfriend was recording me. I knew it was sad, but I didn't know you'd be that affected. It was so sad. It doesn't really strike me as the show that would make me cry. I think because you become so attached to the characters because it's so passionate and it's so annoying and sad for specific characters because of like misunderstandings and because of history. So when characters are done wrong, who are supposed to be like done right, you're extra butthurt about it and you feel really bad for them. And the person who was affected in season or in episode one of season three had already had past issues and traumas and this was just adding.

19:54adding to that. And I was like, when is this going to end? This person can't catch a break. Like, yeah. And I really liked, I'm going, I'm saying too much. I'm saying too much. It's an amazing, amazing show. And yeah, I just, I love that. He just started, he just rewatched the whole of Game of Thrones. Yeah. Really. I think that's the thing boys do. I always go, well, we got your dragons on. For fuck's sake. And he's like, it's not dragons. That's how I see it as. No, it's so good. I can't rewatch though. My boyfriend will rewatch so much of me if I've not watched it. He's like, oh, it's okay, I'll watch it with you.

20:25But if he's watched something, I won't say that. I'd go watch it yourself. I'll watch something else. No, just re-watch with me, to be fair. Yeah, I can't do that. Yeah, I guess like my boyfriend would watch something with me, but I would never re-watch something with him. Weird. Like, no. Grace Beverly's launching another brand. That girl knows how to expand a brand portfolio. She's got Tala, Water to Skin. Yeah, what is her brand? She's got her AI, Talent Management. Yeah, wow. She's got Shreddy. Yeah, so Water to Skin. But like, you know, it's so clever there about this is the way that it came about or so she says it came about the whole idea that her husband basically thought that the root cause of her acne was due to the hard water, which so far because the hard water in London, it's like it's not good for your hair.

21:09It's definitely can't be good for your skin, as we've now found. Anyway, and her husband thought, right, I'm going to come up with something. We're going to make it into a business. And now they have. And it's I think it's going to pop. And the husband side note is like, I'm going to make it into a business. I mean, where did she find him? He does everything. He's the most perfect husband. Really? Absolutely perfect husband. Like she came home one day after work and he had changed all the water filters in the house to this one by water too. She then was like, actually, she's obviously started noticing a difference, was like, do you know what?

21:41I'm gonna go to them and work with them and create something that looks a bit chic-er. That, you know, goes, cause I think it was only at that time for drinking water. It wasn't programmed for skin. Skin body, yeah. It looks so chic. She's done rain full showers. She's done hand showers. It looks so expensive and premium. And I think it ties in at such a good time because she's also just moving house. Oh, wow. And I feel like people are engaging already. And everyone knows she's had a skincare journey. Yeah, like most girls. It's so relatable. I think it is so true. And I think most people living, I know living down here in comparison to when I used to be back home in Scotland, the difference in water.

22:13Really? It feels like there's a constant scum on the water. Like water you drink, the water in your hair, the way that your skin feels. going home my favourite thing is to turn that tap on and put glass under it and drink straight from the tap it's so different doesn't it so do you not drink London tap water no really god I do I've lived in London most of my life so I'm like I don't really know but actually when you deep it it's gross it is gross I've never had to unclog my shower more than living in London I don't think I ever had to unclog my shower when I lived at home oh it's like a current interesting get the plunger put it in the diary yeah And like, it's not like, so I can totally understand I'm so behind it because I think 100%.

22:54Yeah. And I think she knows, she's saying she's not reinventing the wheel. No. She's just realized something worked for her. She's going to retarget it. She's going to make it chic-er. Those are what brands do so well. They're the ones that like, you don't, I think nowadays, because everything, every market is so saturated, right? They're like, people who are constantly trying to reinvent the wheel. You don't need to start something new. People I think who do something so far-fetched that it's like, how did you even come up with that? And like, no one's going to use that. Whereas like this is so like, God, why didn't I think of that?

23:20It's one of those moments. And that's when I feel like when I have one of those moments, I'm like, God, that's a good one. She's struck gold there. God, she's killing it. Absolutely killing it. And like pop off. Like I think there's nothing wrong she can do. I trust everything she says. I can't wait for her next day. Or the productivity method as well. She's also got the productivity method. Oh, of course. How could we forget? We are big fans of that. Yeah, huge fans of diaries. You know, they have a big planner now. It's on my desk. The actual tear it day by day planner. She has like every aspect of her life covered.

23:47Well, every one of the aspects she has a business for. Yeah, but it's her life. So it works so seamlessly with her. So clever. So clever. I know, I know. Oh, guys. Yeah, go for it. Have you seen all the backlash that Becky Hill is getting? So Becky Hill was performing at Transmit Festival in Scotland. She basically came on and was performing all her new music and she got booed off the stage. And her response to the booing was, oh, well, there are other artists coming to perform. so like i'll just leave or something no you can go you can go and everyone was like wait but we don't want to hear your new music we want to hear what you have been performing what we love about you and she i think the next day came up with a video on her social medias and was like i just want to try something new yeah i'm like i've been making this music for so long and i wanted you guys to hear it and i wanted to hear our opinions i get that but i don't think a festival is the time to be trialing new music i don't know why she got so but i think and her reaction was so bad 100%.

24:41I also think as well, concerts are for the people who are like hardcore fans. That's where we want to hear the music. Best of all, people to have fun, dance, listen to the OG stuff. And Becky Hill's got some good OG stuff. Oh yeah, she's got some actual banger. There's a banger, isn't there? I like Disconnect with Chaser's status. If we disconnect. Yeah, it's so good. Like she has some absolute banger. So I can understand why people would be annoyed. Because I think I would be too. But at the same time, I also don't blame her for being like, you know what I'm so sick of that like I want to enter a new era I get that but if you're going to a festival it's not even just a dedicated Becky Hill concert you're going to a festival you probably only know three of her songs and you and your group probably decided oh we're going to go to Becky Hill for a couple minutes to hear this song this song and this song I don't actually know but surely it would have been quite a big stage so her crowd would have just been there for a couple songs in and out like that's just how festivals work so they were going expecting What would you have done?

25:38Would you have contributed to the booing or just like stuck out? No, it would have been like, mayday, mayday. Like, let's just play a fucking banger. I don't think I would have booed, but I think I would have left. Or actually, I think I would have stayed because it happened two years ago at All Points East where, you know, Outkast, Andre 3000 came on and he's now kind of reformed and is really like hippie and was playing on the flute. And not the flute. It was so odd and no shade to him. like peace and love, peace and power. Love that for you. But everyone in the crowd, when I tell you, it went from like, hey, Henri 3000 to like, total confusion.

26:17Everyone's looking at each other like, why are we here? What is he doing? We were expecting like a hey, yeah, or, I'm sorry, Miss Jackson, I am for real. I'm sorry, Miss Jackson. Like, not this mellow flute music. At all points, it was just quite like, dance-y. I also think going back to Becky Hill, I feel like she kind of shot herself in the foot before anyone even said anything. She almost announced it to the stage. She was like, you can leave. She addressed it too early. And I think if she didn't do it and then just vibed out with the crowd, maybe you never know, people would have actually enjoyed themselves and had a good time.

26:47Because with Wondra 3000, we kind of just stayed and we were like, not our vibe, but we're still here. But we're Becky here. Or at least sandwich it. Just sandwich it. Do a banger. Do a banger at the beginning, something that people don't know in the middle, and then bang at the end, and that's how you do it. Boom. But anyways, she messed up and I hope she recovers from that.

27:33All right, let's move on to things we're loving. But before we start, it's a very exciting week this week because the LGs are off to Silverstone and we're partnering with Disney. So cool. The F1 Academy has just done a collection with Disney. Indy and I had a little look at it last week and it's so cool. We were saying as well that the idea that motorsport and all these cool collabs are coming into force and this one is really, really cool. It's that super nostalgic feel. And their stuff is like really wearable. And I feel like you can wear it to be like a fan of the sport, but also wear it in like the downtime and chill.

28:04But yeah, super, super cool. And I like the aspect of like female empowerment behind it. Obviously it's a collab with F1 Academy, which is still growing. It's their first time racing at Silverstone, which is like mega. I cannot believe you're going. I'm actually so excited. And throughout the collection, it's all like Daisy Duck. Yeah, Minnie Mouse. It's so nostalgic, isn't it? They have absolutely smashed it with the clubs this year. also it's an exciting silverstone because we could have a three british podium yes can you imagine that would be mega i think that would be so iconic like even last year i even went with like something really astounding happened on the podium like nico hulkenberg was on and he's usually like the bottom like not even on the midfield but the bottom of the group so like to see him there and the crowd from that like i can't even imagine if it was an all british podium it'd be mega but also i just love that we're talking about it like you know i think a few years ago granted drives to survive got me into F1.

28:55But I feel like now we're seeing it across fashion. We're seeing it in this lifestyle. Like the fact we're going, it's just, you know, I think more women need to get into F1. I also think as well, talking of like the woman involvement to actually Susie Wolf is like the person, like the managing director of F1 Academy, which again, if you don't know Susie Wolf, she is Tota Wolf's wife. Power couple. Literally power couple. And obviously Tota Wolf is the team principal of Mercedes. So I think also you have that true like motorsport knowledge and trust like yeah it's like a boss gal it literally so so cool and i think again like we said the quality of these pieces like it's just a really really cool collab and i feel like clouds that don't get spoken about enough of and like one that is merged with such a cool sport cool clothing cool conceptual like it's just a good vibe i love it warrior predictions for the weekend oh gosh i think actually alex alban oh my end he's been having a shocker though i know but I just think he kind of, he grew up in the UK.

29:55Like he's, that would be cool. He's been in and around that scene. So, and he's besties with like, I know George Russell and all the British. I definitely think we're going to see Kimmy and George on the podium. He is brilliant. I love him. I know. And if I'm, I obviously, I'm a Lando girl too. but Lewis is going to be there as well. Will Kim Kardashian be there? Oh my God. If I saw Kim Kardashian, surely she will. I think I'd actually crumble. Yeah. I don't care about any other celeb, any actor, any singer. all I care about is Kim Kardashian. If I saw her, I think I'd scream more than I saw her.

30:24I also feel like she needs to do a resurgence from Monaco because I feel like she could have come out in like way cooler outfits. You could have way more of like a fun presence. Although I think she's letting him do his thing. She will, you know, she'll cement it. She'll sit back. Yeah, so true. And then bang, she'll come. Yeah, I don't know what to predict. I feel like Silverstone is obviously such an iconic race. It's not even just big on the sporting calendar, but something for like Brits. I think it's like one of the coolest sporting events all year round. It is just the biggest summer of sport this year.

30:49100%. It really is. And the fact that you guys are going. I can't. I cannot believe. So India and Lola are going. Check out the content. There's a recent unboxing we did of the Disney collection as well. So if you've missed that, be sure to check it out. And if you do want to shop it, you can get it actually at the Disney store on Oxford Street. The F1 Hub on Oxford Street. Or online. Brilliant. Also, apparently there are going to be some surprise guests. Ooh. From Disney. Ooh. To celebrate this collection. Ooh. I'm excited. So that's all we're going to say. so stay tuned there's an LG blog going live we'll be shooting lots of content over the weekend can't wait to watch that book I'm so excited yeah I'm excited for you any other things you're loving this week jewellery that I've been loving recently guys I'm really into toe rings and I don't know if I'm going down a row of them no guys but there's this brand called Samuero they have really cool chunky toe rings and I saw them when I got on it just looked incredible and I was so obsessed and I feel like if you do like chunky jewellery and like you're obviously going on holiday and like you've got a cool nail polish on, I think it could look really fun and chic.

31:53So I'm going to test it out. Okay, test it out. And we'll rate it. I might want to dabble in it. I don't know. I'm not on it, but. Anyway, but I really love this cool new brand called Samuara. They have some really, really cool jewelry, not just toe rings, but earrings and ear cuffs. They have some really cool like jeweled pieces as well. It's really fun. I believe Merit are releasing a brown mascara. Oh. And I have since switching to brown mascara about a year ago, I've never looked back. I'm so this I'm not wearing a dark mascara or like a black mascara in forever. I actually wear a burgundy mascara.

32:23Yeah. I don't have one today, but I usually do. That's cool. I'm such an extra black mascara. Really? I need my eyes to be black. Yeah. Really dark eyeliner. And the L 'Oreal extensionist mascara does that really well. Really? It just codes them so well. And if you want that like big, bold, black eye look, smoky eye, all of that. That's an amazing mascara for that. Perfect. Talking on something other like summer essential that everyone needs to have in their makeup bag this season is the Jamie Genevieve U-Tan, like tan. Oh my God, it's a facial mist. It's okay. If you have any, like, I'm quite prone to like breaking out with like sunscreen, X, Y, and Z.

32:58Same. This spray, it has like CBD in it. I'm yet to find a tan for the face that doesn't make me break or flare or... This one does the opposite. It like cures my spots. Really? Yeah, I don't know what it is or I don't know what it has in it, but like it makes like my skin complexion so like one tone. it's just so good and it's not like a really bright orangey tan it's a really nice neutral like just bronze from the sun like really really nice i feel like everyone needs to have that in their makeup bag oh i've got another one violette have just launched a purple blush oh my god we were speaking about this the other day it's so good so i was actually quite afraid to use it because i was like oh my god it's so it's such it's so strongly purple like the hue is so so so strong but when you put it on it's actually quite light and subtle yeah and it has a subtle purple but it kind of leans into red and pink as well so it's not like you've got a purple face also i think it works really good on darker skin tones yeah it is so pretty really the case is just like so chic it's like a little blue oh i love it it's like my favorite of that product it's on it looks like it would be a powder it's not even a powder i know but it's so it's just so it's so i love her stuff so cool well thanks ladies thank you that was so much fun such a fun pod and we'll see you same time next week.
