July 29, 2021 at 06:00AM I’ve never been one to shy away from a viral beauty trend. From buzzy throwbacks like cracking nail varnish (2012, you called?) and burgundy lipsticks to more recent trends like contouring and glass skin, I’m always up for experimenting. However, there’s one beauty trend that up until recently, I just couldn’t get on board with—self-tan. My reason for this? Well, firstly, as a Black woman I’ve always been pretty dubious about what the end result would actually look like, whether it would be totally unnoticeable on my skin tone or would leave me looking patchy.Secondly, even if I was curious, the tanning industry is notorious about being pretty much non-existent for darker skin tones. So, imagine my surprise when I started to notice Black women professing their love for self-tanning on the Internet. First there were TikTok videos and then, much to my delight,…

July 29, 2021 at 06:00AM Coco Chanel famously said, “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” While I don’t think this dictum is applicable in every situation (sometimes more is undoubtedly more), I do think that, on the whole, simplicity is the key to creating outfits that exude assurance in one’s sense of style. It’s this “new minimalism" that, I believe, has allowed designer brands to boast their timeless credentials and offered high-street brands a chance to realise the power of a well-made basic. There are certain simple pairings that I turn to on a regular basis, but let me tell you just because they’re composed of basics does not mean they lack in impact. The secret is sticking to one concept: a dramatic silhouette, an unexpected pop of colour or a fabric that extends from head to toe. Once you’ve got your easy…
