The Fashion Audit: Net-a-porter, dung bags, the new Aesop and David Beckham
What we love, we're not sure about, we're buying and can't wait for...
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.We love: The net-a-porter sale
The Audit is a devoted fan of online luxury boutique net-a-porter.com, and never more so than when the word sale is thrown into the mix. With new reductions and added items there's a treasure trove of bargains to snap up.

We're not sure about: Elephant dung bags
Going green has long been the new black, but The Big Issue's new campaign, championed by Sting and his wife Trudie Styler, featuring bags made of a combination of elephant dung and banana skin is taking it too far. Not a combination we'd like to carry our shopping in.
We can't wait for: The new Aesop
With its clever mix of botanical ingredients and advanced skincare technology, Aesop makes a regular appearance on beauty wish lists, which is why the launch of a brand- new Soho store this week is causing much excitment.

We're buying: Everything!
It's good news for fans of cult French brand The Kooples, which has opened a store at the McArthurGlen designer outlet where savvy shoppers can get their fix of chic Parisian style at a snip, with up to 60 per cent off the normal retail price.

We're swooning over: David Beckham bodywear for H&M
Prepare to get all hot and bothered at the sight of David Beckham modelling his new bodywear range for H&M. Any interest is solely related to the technical specifications of the collection of course.
