July 31, 2021 at 06:06AM Every season, new handbag trends make their way into the street style world, and each season, we eagerly scout said accessories. Despite fashion weeks not taking place in real life, there are still a load of new bags coming in—perhaps, most notably, the Prada Cleo. They’re fashion-forward and have a serious backing. Sometimes, though, it's the classic designer handbags you simply can’t say no to because they are just that—classic.If you’re unsure about which luxury piece to splurge on, consider turning to the most popular designer bags ever. It’s no easy feat to earn such a title, and though many come attached with a pretty big price tag, they’re worth the splurge and deserve a spot in your collection. They’ve been the most sought-after year after year (just take a look at the fashion people below as proof), and they’ll continue to be a…

July 31, 2021 at 06:05AM Paris tends to command a lot of attention in the fashion world. Given the fact that it’s the birthplace of couture, that should come as no surprise. Still, while we love the varied French aesthetic and, of course, cherish our homegrown British talent (of which there is an impressive amount), we’re of the opinion that some of the most exciting brands and designers—both classic and contemporary—hail from Italy.Lucy wears a pink knitted tank top with embellished neckline from Miu Miu.When it comes to pushing sartorial boundaries, no one does so quite like Italian fashion brands. You need only think of the powerhouses—Prada, Miu Miu, Fendi, and so on—and their standout collections instantly come to mind. Ask me what I remember seeing on the New York runways in February 2017, and, honestly, I couldn’t tell you anything off-hand. But Gucci’s Milan…

July 31, 2021 at 06:00AM In an age of look-at-me logos and eye-watering maximalism, you wouldn’t necessarily spot a Caes design if you were scrolling through your Instagram feed. Pared-back, with a focus on elevated basics, the brand invokes the sort of clean-lined minimalism that was prevalent in the ‘90s and recently revived in the collections of contemporary designer brands, such as The Row. Yet, far from being another label jumping on the minimalist bandwagon, Caes has entered the market with a distinctive identity and fully-formed aesthetic. Launched by Helen de Kluiver in 2019, longevity is at the heart of everything that Caes does. Yes, the brand's designs may fall under the 'basics’ category, but with its luxe fabrics and striking silhouettes, these pieces are more than deserving of the spotlight. We’re talking oversized shirting, ribbed bodysuits, knitted dresses, tank tops and leather trousers. The brand was picked up by Net-a-Porter soon after its launch (a signifier of future success if I ever saw one) and…

July 31, 2021 at 06:00AM At this point, there’s just no resisting the allure of French beauty.

When it comes to skincare, in particular, we’ve noticed that a less-is-more approach seems to be the secret to achieving a peak French vibe.Gone are the days of having to physically visit France to load up on all the beauty goods known to be in heavy rotation on French girls’ vanities.

July 31, 2021 at 06:00AM This summer has been a wash out, with a disappointing amount of weekends spent in knitwear and jeans hiding indoors from never-ending downpours. It’s not quite what any of us had in mind for our post-lockdown summer outfits. Autumn collections are now steadily starting to arrive in new-in sections, and the knitwear, padded jackets and tailoring is quite frankly a welcome (and useful) addition to our wardrobes. There are three high street brands in particular that are leading the way when it comes to their autumn collections—Arket, Mango and & Other Stories. There are certain trends they are all embracing, namely sharp tailoring, elevated knitwear that you could wear to work and earthy neutral tones.Keep scrolling to shop the 30 pieces we love from Mango, Arket and & Other Stories.Arket is known for creating elegant, minimal staples that you’ll…

July 31, 2021 at 04:16AM Like taxes and jogging bottoms in lockdown, ankle boots come autumn are a sure thing. This particular piece of footwear is a cornerstone of colder-weather wardrobes and for good reason. Choose carefully, and you’ll live in them for the whole of this winter and the next one too. Scratch that—you’ll wear them all year, even on those chilly spring and summer days. If you haven’t quite made a decision on which ankle boots you’ll be investing in this year, then allow us to help. A couple of notes before we delve into this season’s coming ankle boot trends. While last year there was definitely a focus on those classic hero pieces, in 2021 there’s a renewed love for frivolity but with practicality still in mind. This is especially welcome after the past 18 months and fashion has reacted with giving us…
