Ronesta
About Ronesta
Ronesta is an independent women’s lifestyle magazine. We write about the things women actually wear, buy, wear out and keep, and we build tools that give a straight answer instead of a mood board.
Why Ronesta
Most women’s media is either a catalogue with adjectives or a list of things you are doing wrong. Ronesta is neither. We start from a simple idea: a woman with one coat that fits, one scent that is hers, one good pan and a week that restores her is better equipped for life than a woman with fifty mediocre versions of each. We explain what makes the good version good, what it costs and how to tell it apart from the merely expensive version.
How we choose
Every subject on Ronesta passes three tests. It has to matter for more than one season. It has to be explainable in plain language without a glossary. And it has to be within reach of a woman with a decent salary and some patience, which is why you will find a vintage Cartier next to a watch under a thousand, and a Portuguese hotel next to a house swap. We name prices because prices are information.
No paid placements
Brands cannot buy a mention, a ranking or a place in a tool. When we recommend a coat, a serum or a bottle, it is because we would buy it ourselves. Where we work with a maker on a story, the page says so. There is no affiliate tracking on this site and no advertising network. If that ever changes, this page will change first.
The tools
Colour Season, Capsule Wardrobe, Fit Guide, Fragrance Compass, Skin Routine, Jewel Box, Escape Match, Ritual Week, Room Palette, The Table, the Quiz and the Edit checklist run entirely in your browser. Nothing you enter is sent to us. Results are yours to share as a link or as a picture, or to keep to yourself.
Pictures
The photographs in Ronesta were produced for this magazine. They illustrate subjects and moods; they do not show specific products, people or places unless the text says so.
