August 08, 2021 at 08:00AM If you have fine hair, you’ve probably gone through your fair share of dry shampoo, fringes sticking to your face, and curls that fall out within minutes.

August 08, 2021 at 08:00AM Summer holidays might not look how we’d like them to this year, but it doesn’t mean we can’t dust off our swimsuits and get ready for the warmer weather that lies ahead. Now, before you get too excited and end up spending all your money on the first cute swimsuit you see, let me share with you one of the only swimsuit trends I think you need to know this season: retro florals. I am officially convinced that if you’re going to be seen in one swimsuit trend this summer, make it retro florals.Retro florals entail any floral print that looks like it came straight out of the ‘60s, '70s, or '80s. The nostalgia these funky prints bring is what makes this swim trend feel fresh and different compared to your average floral-printed suit. To further sell you on this…

August 08, 2021 at 08:00AM Your age should have absolutely nothing to do with what you should or shouldn’t wear. That said, we often gravitate toward women over 40 for style inspiration given their more experienced points of view. Influencers Erin Busbee and Melissa Meyers are two women we turn to for outfit inspo.Busbee, 46, and Meyers, 56, both consistently post looks on their blogs and Instagram feeds that are equal parts chic and easy.

August 08, 2021 at 08:00AM Whatever your thoughts on anti-ageing as a term, there’s no denying that moisturisers, which are created to specifically tackle things like fine lines, pigmentation and dryness, can be incredibly expensive due to their potent ingredients and advanced formulations. And while I truly believe that ageing is a privilege we should fully embrace—wrinkles and all—it doesn’t mean that taking good care of our skin as we grow older should cost a small fortune. This is why I’ve made it my mission to seek out anti-ageing products that genuinely work without breaking the bank. I’ve already discovered some brilliant serums and eye creams that rival counterparts with three-figure price tags, but today we’re here to talk about anti-ageing moisturisers—and cheap ones at that.Ahead, keep scrolling to shop seven of the best affordable anti-ageing moisturisers that genuinely hold their own against some of my luxurious favourites.It’s all about ingredients when choosing an efficacious anti-ageing moisturiser,…

August 08, 2021 at 06:32AM If there’s one thing I know, it’s dresses. My wardrobe is full of them, and I wear them 99.9% of the time. I’ve always struggled with casual (long-time Who What Wear readers will have repeatedly read about my ongoing struggle with denim—sorry to be a bore!), so easy, good-looking frocks are my most trusted fashion staple. I have affordable ones that I wear each and every week. I have special, more expensive ones that come out for important occasions or big meetings. I have those in-between, mid-priced options that bridge the gap between casual days and fancy ones. I own styles that are ultra-summery and best for heatwaves and holiday packing, but I’ve also got a fair number of clever, trans-seasonal styles that can work layered up and with tights in winter or with bare legs and sandals during warmer months. I even…

August 08, 2021 at 06:14AM Breton stripes never go out of fashion. They are far too classic and essential an item to be relegated on a whim, but it’s true that they do go through moments where popularity surges and they become noticeably more on-trend than a season or moment before. Now is one such time. Everywhere I look, there are Breton stripes, and they’re being worn in such a variety of new ways that it’s the perfect time to gather inspiration.A nautical trend to autumn fashion is like butter to bread—the two are so much more delicious together and are inextricably linked. Although a simple item, you will find that a well-chosen striped knit or tee is the kind of clever item you’ll pull out at this time every year without fail, making it an investment to not be ignored. Any previous Breton purchases will stand the test of…

August 08, 2021 at 06:07AM It’s safe to say that, this year, we’ve fallen back in love with getting our nails done. Having been denied the salon experience for so long, I, and, judging by the difficulty I had getting an appointment with my manicurist, so many of you have been working hard to make up for lost time. When I did finally get my turn in the salon chair last week, I was curious to find out which colours were proving popular right now, to which my manicurist responded, “everything autumnal—in here, summer’s over”. That’s right—while our wardrobes may still be clinging onto the last few weeks of warm(ish) weather, as far as our nails go, our approach and preferences are absolutely geared towards autumn. I’m no exception, either, for the colour I chose was a rich, deep shade of burgundy, which I thought…

August 08, 2021 at 06:07AM We don’t know about you, but even though it’s August, we’re already thinking ahead to autumn and all the outfit potential that comes with the change in season. But autumn outfit ideas can be difficult to assemble. One minute we’re too hot, and the next it’s pouring rain and we’re definitely feeling like winter has arrived. So what’s a girl to do? A girl is to look right here, right now, at this lineup of clever outfit ideas.Thankfully, there are savvy dressers out there nailing the “in between seasons” thing quite nicely, and inspiring us to do the same.
