I Hate Skinny Jeans, so I’m Very Into These Gen Z Denim Trends

August 15, 2021 at 06:00AM Ah, Gen Z. The generation that’s coined the term cheugy, likes to do a strange frozen-honey challenge on TikTok and reminds millennials that skinny jeans are absolutely not the style to wear right now. For clarification, I haven’t worn my drainpipes for some time. I have a pair of the Topshop Jonis stashed in my wardrobe, which I will never part with (just in case), but other than that, I’ve always been a fan of a looser fit. In fact, during my teenage years in the late ‘90s and early '00s, the baggy jeans I lived in were so long they’d often suck up a whole puddle’s worth of water every time it rained. What with Gen Z’s propensity for Y2K trends, could these floor sweepers be back? Thankfully, things are a little more sophisticated than that. But there are so…

I Can’t Believe I’m Saying This, But I’m Really Into Quilted Vests Right Now

August 15, 2021 at 06:00AM I have long associated quilted vests with the posh boys at university who wore them over their rugby shirts with red trousers and boat shoes (if this image resonates with you, then it’s because you know it to be highly accurate). While I mean no disrespect to this way of dressing, it was and is perhaps completely different in every way to my own personal style. And, if I’m being honest, I’ve always found it lacking in terms of being, well, cool. But as with literally everything in fashion, it’s eventually become a sought-after piece (hey, even Crocs have had their moment in the fashion spotlight).For me, the utilitarian trend is what’s behind my enjoyment of this garment. I appreciate the fact that many will turn up their noses at this half-jacket look, but it’s very practical, really. And therein lies the reason…

The One Product You Should Buy From the Buzziest Skincare Brands

August 15, 2021 at 06:00AM Skincare hype is really hard to ignore. When a brand or product manages to cut through the cluttered market and capture consumers’ attention either by word of mouth, the press, or social media, it’s really hard to resist just making the easy choice and buying the It serum, SPF, or face mask that everybody else seems to have. The issue is that the skincare products that amass the most hype aren’t always the ones that deserve it, like a hit single on an album that contains way better (albeit less popular) tracks.That problem is just what this list is attempting to solve. Here at Who What Wear, we wind up trying almost every product from every buzzy skincare brand introduced to the market, so we have thoughts about which of them are most worth buying. Here, check out the one product from 15 different much-discussed skincare brands (SkinCeuticals, Sunday Riley, Shani Darden,…

Bobbi Brown Just Launched a New Makeup Brand—and We’ve Tried It All

August 15, 2021 at 06:00AM Whether you’re a makeup aficionado or take a more pared-back approach to beauty, I think it’s a fairly safe bet to assume that you’ve heard of Bobbi Brown. The renowned makeup artist launched her eponymous makeup brand back in the early ‘90s, starting with a line of wearable lipsticks before releasing the now-cult Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick. Tired of the excessive, editorial-style makeup of the late '80s and early '90s, Brown’s motivation was clear from the outset: simple, wearable products that slot effortlessly into your makeup bag and don’t require makeup artistry levels of skill to look good. Since Brown parted ways with her namesake brand a few years back, the industry has been waiting with bated breath to see what she does next, and the time has finally arrived. Enter Jones Road.Brown compares the products to a “Swiss army knife: easy, cool,…

Don’t Be Surprised If Lana Condor’s Dreamy Marble-Print Bikini Leaves You Mesmerized

August 14, 2021 at 08:21PM Don’t mind me, I’m just living vicariously through Lana Condor’s vacation Instagrams. The To All the Boys actress recently spent some time in Positano on the Amalfi coast, which included relaxing fun in the sun. Lana packed a bikini for the getaway that I can’t stop thinking about: a dreamy swirl-print two-piece from brand 437. This 437 Paradiso print is quickly becoming the look of the summer. Just a few days earlier, Euphoria’s Sydney Sweeney wore the same print on her own tropical vacation. There’s still time to soak up warm weather, which means it’s not too late to see other celebrities jump on this trend train. If you’re eager to try out the same look before the season’s up, shop Lana’s exact swimsuit ahead. Related: Lana Condor Believes a Change Is Coming: “We Have to Stay Strong…

After Tokyo, Simone Biles Wears the Same Olympic Rings Necklace She Gave Jordan Chiles

August 14, 2021 at 06:41PM Simone Biles is keeping the Olympics close to her heart post-Tokyo. After the Games closed on August 8, the pro gymnast sported an understated necklace featuring the Olympic rings on Instagram. Clearly, the competition (and her bronze medal) aren’t far from her mind, but the accessory is even more meaningful once you know who Simone shares it with. Back in June, Simone gifted her friend and fellow Team USA member Jordan Chiles with a matching necklace. Jordan said Simone was “waiting a while” to give her the rings necklace, and finally found the perfect opportunity after trials in St. Louis. This thoughtful present is just one way Simone and Jordan have solidified their powerful bond. “Having [Simone] by my side 24/7 and giving me encouraging words every day definitely helped, and it was very motivational,” Jordan told The…
