November 18, 2021 at 08:00AM From bakuchiol to CBD, 2021 has already seen it’s fair share of trending skincare ingredients, and I’ve tried them all. From overcoming my resistance to retinol to embracing a more pared-back approach to my skincare routine, I love experimenting to work out which ingredients are truly worth putting on my skin.There’s one key ingredient, however, that I’ve wholly neglected to sing the praises of this year. Despite using it every single day in my own routine, this ingredient has been somewhat overlooked in favour of the buzzy new launches that have been leading the way. Yet ask anyone with amazing skin which scientific ingredient it is that they swear by, and I guarantee it will be this one.The ingredient in question? Vitamin C. Also known as ascorbic acid, vitamin C might not be anything new, but it’s certainly a bit of a wonder ingredient if you aren’t…

November 18, 2021 at 08:00AM From bobs and lobs to braids and full fringes, there are so many amazing hairstyles out there that it can be hard to know where to start if you’re looking for a little pre-salon inspiration. So here’s my suggestion: the A-list. With access to top hairstylists and trending hair products, celebs are constantly stepping out in hairstyles that give me major strand envy. But by switching up their hair as often as we change our t-shirts, choosing a favourite style can lead to an inevitable fall down an Instagram rabbit hole.To make things easier for you, I’ve rounded up some of my favourite celebrity hairstyles ever—37 to be precise—to make your next trip to the hairdresser a little easier.Keep scrolling for the best celebrity hairstyles.Alexa's classic lob hairstyle is a trademark in its own right, and I’d hazard a guess that…

November 18, 2021 at 08:00AM If you asked me to write a story about celebrities wearing complicated outfits, rest assured that it would be long and likely devoid of any outfits you’d actually be able to re-create. Celebs have stylists to help them and red carpets and paparazzi to contend with, so trust me—I get it. But from time to time (well, pretty often actually), celebrities will wear outfits that are actually quite simple and easy to re-create.I made it my mission to look through every single recent celebrity outfit I could find to bring you the least complicated ones. These eight outfits are made up entirely of basics that you might already have in your closet, and if you don’t, I found excellent versions for you. Read on for all the easy celeb-approved looks you’ll want to wear this season and beyond and to…

November 18, 2021 at 08:00AM I think it is often underestimated just how difficult shopping for perfume is. For starters, the stuff is expensive. While parting with a few quid on a foundation that isn’t quite right doesn’t feel like a huge financial loss (with a bit of mixing, you can usually find a way to make it work), dropping three figures on a perfume that isn’t all you hoped is more difficult to swallow.We’ve all been there. You spritz something on counter and fall in love at first sniff or smell something divine on someone and add it straight to your basket, only to get the goods home, douse yourself in the stuff and realise it gives you a nauseating headache.And to make perfume shopping even harder, we’re now faced with what feels like hundreds of snaps of painfully pretty bottles every time we log…

November 18, 2021 at 08:00AM Last winter saw a surge in sales of puffer coats, and we won’t be surprised if we see the same again this year. True, we’re not (currently) in any kind of lockdown, but British winters are pretty consistently cold. Not to mention that one of the biggest coat trends of autumn/winter 2021 is the puffer. I have been on my own hunt to find the perfect puffer coat over the past week, and after hours of trawling, I settled on Arket's maxi down coat, a style that comes with a history of being extra popular, even before the temperatures started to dip this October. Back in February 2020, the shopping search engine Lyst revealed that amongst the biggest-selling trophy pieces of the season (many of which were expensive and designer), Arket’s perfect puffer made it onto the top 10. With its simple cut,…

November 18, 2021 at 08:00AM The saying “you get what you pay for” applies to so many things in fashion, but one thing we struggle to justify it for is lingerie. Never has so little fabric amounted to so many pound signs as it does when you peruse luxury lingerie. And seeing as it’s something we wear, quite literally, every single day, it’s not something we’re prepared to spend our entire salary on, which is why we’ve scoured the digital shopping sphere to bring you the best affordable lingerie brands we can find.Emmanuelle Koffi wears a white lace lingerie set from Gooseberry Intimates. While they’ll save you some pennies in the process, if there’s one thing these affordable lingerie brands don’t skimp on, it’s style. From comfortable jersey triangle bralettes and big briefs to lace-trimmed teddies and even sultry see-through shorts, from an array…
