I’m 5’1” And These Are the Best Petite Summer Picks I’ve Found

July 20, 2021 at 06:02AM As a petite woman, I can pretty safely say that I’ve experienced all the pros and cons that come with my stature. Sure, I might not be able to see over the crowd at a concert, but I know I’m the one having the last laugh when there’s always ample legroom on a long-haul flight or cross-country train journey.While there are some issues I have just learned to accept (reaching the top shelf of the kitchen cupboards is a losing battle) there are other realities I refuse to give up on and one such example is finding well-fitting clothing. Thankfully with every passing year, there seem to be more and more options for women who stand below 5 ft 4 in, which by the way is a large percentage of the British female population, as the average height of women in…

These Cheap Moisturisers Are Just as Good as Their Expensive Counterparts

July 20, 2021 at 06:00AM A good moisturiser is a skincare staple. Second only to thoroughly cleaning the skin with a great cleanser, a moisturising cream is the most important step in your routine to ensure you’re flooding the skin with hydration and vital antioxidants. Plus, a good one will act as the final step in protecting your skin against environmental aggressors during the day and will help your skin cells recharge and rejuvenate overnight.The problem with many moisturisers, however, is that they can be the most expensive element of a good skincare routine. With clever active ingredients and luxe textures, when it comes to the final step of your routine, you can expect to pay a little more, but that doesn’t mean you should have to.There are now some seriously amazing dupes out there from more affordable brands—all of which offer a high-quality product…

24 Expensive-Looking Buys I Love From Warehouse, M&S and COS

July 20, 2021 at 06:00AM This is probably not very ’fashion editor’ of me to admit, but I often avoid buying items of clothing that are purely designed for the summer months.

Think tailored trousers that look just as good with a tank top as they do with a cashmere jumper or a dress-up-dress-down midi skirt. This is the premise on which…
