November 06, 2021 at 06:30AM Nothing gets me excited for winter quite like a really great candle. Whether I’m throwing open the curtains first thing or snuggling down on a cold, dark evening, you better believe I’ve got a candle burning. The thing I love the most about candles is, unlike perfumes, you can chop and change them depending on your mood. While I might like to burn a fresh, up-and-at-em sort of candle to get me ready for the day, come evening I want to be enveloped by warm, cosy scents.It is because I use candles in such a way that I am always on the hunt for the best ones around and burn through them at an alarming rate. Rather embarrassingly, I have been known to get through more than more than five candles in one month. As a result, you’d…

November 06, 2021 at 06:15AM When it comes to wedding guest dressing, there’s little room for throwing an opportunistic look together. As soon as that invite drops on the doormat/in your inbox, you’ll spend more time questioning what to wear, how you’ll stay dry and what bag will be most useful than how you’ll travel there or what to gift the happy couple with.But the biggest conundrum is definitely choosing a pair of shoes. If you’ve got a slew of weddings stretching throughout the year, you’ll happily recoup lots of cost per wear out of a sensible but not-too-safe style in nude or metallic, preferably with a heel height that’ll leave your sense of humour intact after 12 hours on your feet.If you want to ensure that nothing will hinder you being first on the dance floor, block midi heels are the way to go (ditto if…

November 06, 2021 at 06:07AM When you’re putting together the perfect outfit, there are a few things to consider. One of your utmost priorities should be ensuring the items that make up your outfit don’t fight against one another. Instead, they should work together to amplify your entire aesthetic. That’s where basics come in, and considering the current season, let’s talk winter basics.Monique Ager styles out a chic blazer from H&M. An edit of timeless staples will have your back year after year and make whatever trends or statement pieces you do decide to buy into look chicer in the process. This applies in the winter months, too, during which you might flirt with the idea of buying, I don’t know, a bright faux-fur coat (a piece many influencers are already investing in, should you be interested). Anyway, to go with said statement coat, you’ll need…

November 06, 2021 at 06:02AM As soon as the winter weather begins to set in, I immediately find myself questioning how to make each of my outfits as cosy as possible. Of course, the addition of a puffer jacket or a beanie hat can be helpful, and a cashmere scarf doesn’t go unappreciated, but on the footwear front, there always seems to be a lack of shoes that provide that warm, fuzzy feeling.However, in recent months, just about every major It girl has managed to find a solution to fill the cosy-shaped hole in my footwear rotation. Enter Ugg boots.Yes, the divisive shoes of the early aughts are back. And while there has been much debate about whether Ugg boots are in fact shoes—much like the debate that questions whether leggings can justifiably be worn as trousers—it is evident that in 2021, anything goes.Although some might think Uggs are…

November 06, 2021 at 05:00AM Like all cold-weather staples, the trusty winter boot is something we all come to rely on heavily from November onwards, but shopping-wise, it comes with a slight surfeit of options: high-street or high-end, coloured or neutral, leather or suede.
