December 02, 2021 at 06:00AM Party season is the epitome of everything that fashion represents to me—thrill, joyful experimentation and the undeniable power to uplift. For many, party season is looking more like its glittery, pre-pandemic self (minus the mistletoe, perhaps). Luckily, evening wear is firmly back on the fashion agenda, with high-voltage glamour seen right across this season’s collections. Designers have delivered the roaring ’20s ideal that we all envisioned, and pined for, during that monotonous cycle of sweatpants. As someone who is still shielding, however, party season remains much like the last: makeshift martinis in the kitchen, a festive playlist and a hankering for office party gossip from friends. That said, I believe that party dressing is more of a mindset than a set of concrete social engagements.Clothes hidden at the back of my wardrobe will be making a triumphant return over the coming…

December 02, 2021 at 08:04AM Suddenly, it feels like winter. Gone are the days when I could quickly nip out of the house without a jacket or a considerable amount of knitwear, and it’s time my puffer coat was taken out of storage to be put back into work. It’s not technically “winter” until December 21, but many of us in the team are eagerly counting down the days until it’s appropriate to wear our Arket beanies once more. My boot collection has been finally unboxed again, ready for action. The tights are on, the layers are piling up, and I’m 100% here for it all. And while I’m not one to endlessly buy new items every time a season rolls around, I do enjoy looking at new-in winter items—a lot. It takes a great deal of research to find the best coat or chicest cold-weather dress. There…

December 02, 2021 at 08:00AM When it comes to outfit styling, few events provide as much inspiration as fashion week. Bringing together the fashion world’s most stylish individuals, these events act as a one-stop shop for outfit ideas and styling inspo.With autumn on the horizon, I’ve been thinking about the season’s staples and pondering the best trouser-and-shoe pairings. Wide-leg trousers have always illuded me as they seem to be a particularly difficult item to pair with footwear. (Evidently, I’m not alone. We’ve recently seen an increase in searches of the phrase, “shoes to wear with wide-leg trousers.”)Luckily, the street style at Copenhagen Fashion Week offered up plenty of inspiration on this exact topic and was a veritable masterclass in how to style wide-leg trousers. Whether you’re looking to style flared jeans, wide-leg leather pants or traditional suit trousers, CPHFW had a footwear option for every…

December 02, 2021 at 08:00AM Being experimental with your hair doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to go all-out with new hues, statement fringing or lashings of layers. Often, the simplest switches make the most impact. Right now, as our strands continue to grow without the prospect of a cut any time soon, it seems everyone is busy dreaming of and mood boarding potential styles to opt for once the salons are back up and running.And, with more time to ponder on and weigh up the pros of a dramatic change, I thought it might be worth sharing my recent experience in hope it might inspire some of you. You see, I recently chopped off my lengthy blonde hair to join the bob/long bob brigade. A few months back, after researching for a feature on blunt bob hairstyles, I convinced myself to go for the chop, which was masterfully created by…

Plus, how she uses them in her daily routine.I find that as I approach my mid-50s, my skin and body are getting more and more sensitive to what I put on them. Over the past year, I’ve been making an effort to incorporate and use clean, safe beauty products in my life in order to reduce my exposure to toxic chemicals. In doing so, my allergies have improved, I feel…

December 02, 2021 at 08:00AM Here at Who What Wear, we always like to keep a keen eye on what celebrities are wearing. And while it can be all fun and games to cover red carpet appearances complete with couture ball gowns and six-figure jewels, it’s even more of a thrill to discover celebrities wearing items you can actually attain. Enter Gin From the Pampa, the affordable on-the-rise jewellery brand that has garnered quite the It-girl endorsement of late. Since its launch in January 2020, the label has been spotted on the likes of Kendall Jenner, Elsa Hosk, Ashley Graham and Gabrielle Union. These incredibly chic individuals are regularly seen in elaborate bespoke wares, but you’ll be pleased to know the designs at Gin From the Pampa often come in at under £100.Expertly capturing the essence of summer, Gin From the Pampa is known for its…

December 02, 2021 at 06:30AM As a part of my job as a beauty editor and journalist, I spend a big chunk of my day talking to skin experts, from aestheticians to consultant dermatologists. As a result, it’s safe to say that I have absorbed a whole lot of skincare know-how. And with that being said, I don’t believe in extensive skincare routines—partly because I’m lazy, but mostly because I have yet to find a medical expert who believes that applying more than four or five products to your face at any one time is better for your skin. In fact, over the years I have settled on just four ingredients that I know my skincare routine can’t be without.As long as I have vitamins A (retinol), B (niacinamide) and C in my routine (topped off with a healthy layer of SPF in the morning), I’m good to…

December 02, 2021 at 06:10AM After 18 months of only shopping online, I’ve come to the conclusion that a couple of hours browsing in your favourite shops, where you get to see and feel the material of a dress or jacket before making that all-important purchase, pays off. In fact, you’re more likely to pick up those extra-special affordable pieces, as they’re much easier to spot in the flesh. That said, shopping IRL can feel like an assault course at this time of year when the number of people largely increases as we shop for Christmas presents and endless deals and discounts entice customers into the stores.What makes it quicker and easier is knowing what to look out for. The British high street is one of the best in the world, but even I still get blown away by just how designer-esque and premium certain pieces can be.So not only have I…

December 02, 2021 at 06:04AM It can be difficult to know what to wear in December when cold weather is undeniable and your schedule is packed. With freezing days to navigate, get-togethers to go to, big meals to eat (stretchy trousers are really the dream ticket), glitzy parties to attend (even if your numbers are small), workdays to still power through (wherever you may be carrying them out) and some cosy lounging moments to enjoy, multiple trendy winter outfits are required—this we know. Assembling them, however, is a different story. Striking the perfect balance between being warm and looking stylish isn’t an easy task, but don’t worry. We have a solution.We’ve looked to the stylish people we follow on Instagram to bring you some much-needed outfit inspiration for the month ahead. Whether your old winter coat needs replacing or you’re looking for ensembles that you can wear…
