The High-Low Party Outfits I’m Loving This Winter

November 04, 2021 at 06:00AM From chatting to friends and colleagues, it’s become clear to me that after a long 18 months of sequin-free dressing, many of us are keen to get glammed up for party season. Of course, this will manifest in different ways for different people. For some, it will be going all out with a minidress and statement accessories. For others, it will simply be putting on heels for the first time in over a year. Personally, I’ve loved the unexpected “high-low” approach that has been cropping up on Instagram recently, which has seen fashion lovers pairing traditionally casual styles with unmistakably party-ready buys.I’m talking about sequinned tops with jeans, frothy frocks with track-sole boots and fancy midi skirts with logo tees.

November 04, 2021 at 06:00AM Known for its achingly cool and contemporary spin on minimalism, Arket has been a fashion-editor go-to ever since it arrived at our shores in 2017. It came as a surprise to no one, then, when it announced it was launching its first jewellery capsule last year, and naturally, the pieces sold out within a matter of weeks. Well, we’re happy to report that the highly anticipated second drop arrived this week, and obviously, it’s looking better than ever.Comprised of a concise 13-piece edit, the jewellery collection stays within the same vein of Arket’s main-line fashion collections: classic, versatile and polished in an understated way.

With Christmas around the corner, we have a feeling that these would be the ideal gifts…

Here They Are: Our 20 Favorite Boots of 2021

November 04, 2021 at 12:10AM When we think of fashion staples, we think of boots. No matter what the temperature, they’re the shoes we want to be wearing, and they come in so many different styles, colors, and materials that they just can’t get boring. While we love a great t-shirt or classic pair of jeans, there’s just something about boots. Whether your style is classic, edgy, or fashion forward, we found a pair of shoes that you’re going to live in throughout the year. It’s hard work, but someone’s got to do it. When you spy a pair of lace-up boots on your best friend, don’t say we didn’t warn you. Those styles will be everywhere this season; but they’re not the only ones. The 2021 lineup is rife with utilitarian boots, animal print, and Western-inspired styles; these are the picks to…
