From the team behind Heaven Mayhem. A recap and a cool-girl edit of everything we tried (and loved) this month.
ICYMI: OBJECTS OF DESIRE
Earlier this month, we launched Objects of Desire, our Fall/Winter 2026 collection. It is an edit built around stone, texture, and shape: natural Tiger's Eye, sculptural studs, zebra print, and a new selection of accessories that includes three new eyewear styles inspired by texture, shape, and versatile styling.
The thinking behind it is very us. We would rather make the one piece you reach for every morning than ten you will have forgotten by November. So every piece in Objects of Desire balances a timeless staple with a detail that gives it personality.
The eyewear is the part of the drop we are most excited to see out in the world. The Demi Sunglasses, the Presley Glasses, and the Aston Glasses join the lineup this season, and they are designed the same way we think about jewelry: treat your frames like part of the outfit, not an afterthought. Fall dressing is all layers and neutrals, and a considered frame is often the thing that pulls the whole look together.
OUR PICKS
Four pieces from the collection the team has already claimed. Consider this your starting point.
Paloma Earrings in Mixed
The Paloma Earrings are the studs you will reach for without thinking. A heart shape, giving them a sculptural quality that reads as considered rather than decorative. Larger than a standard stud but still sitting close to the ear, they hold their lightweight shape all day. Wear on their own or layer in a stack.
Crisia Necklace
The Crisia Necklace is a long cord pendant finished with a tassel drop, and it is the necklace we are reaching for as the layers come back. It drops through the neckline of a knit or an open collar and draws the whole look downward, lengthening it. One piece, and the outfit suddenly has a focal point.
Roma Phone Case
Our phone cases sold faster than we ever expected this spring, and the Roma Phone Case is the quiet one of the family. A soft cream tone that works with everything in a fall wardrobe, from camel coats to a crisp white shirt. Tech that looks like it belongs to the outfit.
Arco Earrings in Gold
The Arco Earrings feature a tapered Tiger's Eye drop on a polished frame. In gold, the warmer amber tones in the stone come forward, which makes them feel made for fall. They work just as well with a white shirt and trousers as they do with a black slip dress. Our styling tip: wear your hair up so the line of the earring stays visible, and keep the rest of the ear simple. Because Tiger's Eye is a natural stone, every pair is a little different.

ICYMI: OUR FIRST POP-UP IN NYC
On September 18th, we opened the doors to our very first pop-up, in collaboration with Shopify and Youth to the People. For three days only, our community stepped into the world of Heaven: shopping our pieces IRL, meeting the team, and picking up special gifts with purchase along the way.
We built Heaven Mayhem almost entirely online. Tagged posts, DMs, and online product pages. So getting to watch someone try on a pair of earrings in a mirror, ask questions, and see our variety of products in person was so much fun. Events like these remind us that our pieces make the most sense in motion, on real women, in conversation. More to come!
To everyone who came through: thank you, truly. To everyone who could not make it: we hope this is the first of many.

SEPTEMBER FAVORITES
This is the part of the newsletter where we let the team loose to share what they have actually been wearing, spritzing, and listening to. No paid placements. No agenda. Just the things that earned a spot in our routines this September, and the ones we would recommend to a friend.
Beauty Product of the Month: Saie Beauty CitySet Setting Spray
The hero this month is the Saie Beauty CitySet Setting Spray, the last step before any of us leave the house. As the weather turns and the days get longer at the desk, this is the one product that has quietly made it into every bag in the office.
Scent of the Month: Dries Van Noten Velvet Violet
We loved Chamomile Satin back in spring, and Dries Van Noten has done it again. Velvet Violet is the scent that told us fall had arrived: soft, a little moody, and the fragrance equivalent of swapping linen for velvet. It is the one we keep reaching for on cooler mornings.
Accessory of the Month: The Zebra Jewelry Case
The Zebra Jewelry Case holds the pieces you wear every day. The exterior is genuine leather with a top layer of cowhide in a black and cream zebra print, and inside, a silk lining keeps chains, studs, and stones from catching. Two golden clasps hold everything in place, whether it lives on your nightstand or travels in the base of a weekender. Left out on a dresser or a desk, this one reads less like storage and more like a styling object.
Podcast of the Month: Fashion People by Lauren Sherman
Our listen this month is Fashion People, Lauren Sherman's podcast on the business of fashion. It is the show we put on when we want to understand why the industry is moving the way it is, and it is the kind of conversation that makes you a little smarter about the clothes you already love.
COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT
One of our favorite things about Heaven Mayhem is the community that's grown around it, and August gave us some of our favorite tagged moments yet.
