April 20, 2022 at 08:00AM Although it’s completely true that there’s nothing we love more than a full-blown Jennifer Lopez look (we’re talking about her iconic Versace jungle dress and, more recently, her bridal minidress by Giambattista Valli), it would be wrong for us to discount the Hustlers star’s more laid-back outfits. After all, whether it be a sundress or joggers, J.Lo really can make anything look good. Her latest one is no exception. While out and about in L.A., Lopez was spotted wearing the easygoing denim look that French girls have been donning for decades. Specifically, she combined a basic white T-shirt with high-rise, wide-leg jeans à la Jane Birkin back in the 1970s. Keeping with the theme, she added a pair of sky-high platform heels, oversized sunglasses and large gold hoops. Apart from the absence of a woven basket bag (Lopez chose to instead accessorise with Coach’s logo-covered Beat shoulder bag), she…

April 20, 2022 at 08:00AM Deciding what to wear in the morning can be painful at the best of times, let alone if you’ve spent the past two years in leggings. The key to a successful approach to workwear is to have a capsule of smart, but comfortable, pieces that are simple enough to be mixed and matched and restyled in lots of different ways. You want to focus on ease too— shirts that won’t need to go to the dry cleaners each time you wear them and loose tailoring that looks put together, but not too restrictive.Below we have listed 10 items that will make getting dressed for the office a little easier, from a beautiful tailored blazer to a belted wrap coat to wide-leg trousers with a loose fit. It’s also important to pay close attention to the accessories. You’ll want a…

April 20, 2022 at 07:00AM Summer holidays are (finally!) back on the agenda and it’s never been more exciting to jet away to warmer climates. Whether it’s dozing under sun-dappled palm trees or returning from the beach with salty, sun-kissed skin, or sitting on your balcony pre-dinner with a packet of Lays, there are so many feel-good moments on a beach holiday. Perhaps that’s why the scent of suncream brings back those summer memories.After all, fragrance has the power to take you back to a holiday. There are some summer fragrances that we go back to every year, while some summers we stumble across a new-found favourite (this beauty editor’s favourite summer fragrance is just £15) but, in my opinion, you can never go wrong with a fragrance that smells just like your bottle of SPF 50 and sun-kissed skin.So, what exactly makes suncream smell so…

April 20, 2022 at 07:00AM When building our summer wardrobes, great dresses are always our top priority. There’s just something about slipping on a show-stopping yet easy-to-wear style that has the power to make you feel amazing. An instant outfit, all you need is a few simple accessories to throw on with it during the summer months and you’re good to go. And since we’re well and truly heading into those warmer months now (no more snow please, UK, thank you…), we can’t help but start thinking about all the fabulous frocks we’re looking forward to wearing this year. In fact, there are a few styles in particular we keep seeing again and again on our social feeds that are currently living in our thoughts rent free. Of course, there are hundreds of dresses out there to choose from. You can find some of…

April 20, 2022 at 06:52AM I’m probably not quite as busy as Jennifer Lopez, but not relatively speaking, I do consider myself to be pretty busy. And something that I never seem to be able to carve out time for is picking out outfits, even though it’s one of my favourite things to do. I usually wait until the very last minute to get dressed. Sometimes, I think about what I’m going to wear in advance, and sometimes, I don’t. My point is that I require easy outfit ideas in life that I can reach for when I have zero time to deliberate, and I’ll look for that easy outfit inspiration anywhere. This time, J.Lo provided it.While out in L.A. with fiancé(!) Ben Affleck this week, Lopez wore a simple two-piece outfit consisting of a white T-shirt and black overalls (specifically, an overall-adjacent jumpsuit). I’m not…

April 20, 2022 at 06:30AM Given the miserable, cloudy nature of our climate, do we need to wear SPF in the UK every single day, rain or shine? No. Is it highly, highly recommended? Absolutely. The truth is, although UVB rays (the ones responsible for skin burning) can’t penetrate clouds or glass, UVA rays (the ones responsible for an acceleration in skin ageing) can. So although we might not require the daily application of SPF to the extent that other countries with higher UV indexes might, if you’re serious about preventing premature skin ageing, applying an SPF to exposed skin is the single best thing you can do for it.And no area of skin is more exposed to the sun than our faces. While the majority of our body remains protected underneath clothes, our faces lap up all of the damaging UVA rays that come…

April 20, 2022 at 06:00AM Have you ever noticed how hair trends come about? It’s a lot like fashion. They often start on the runways on the likes of the Bella Hadids and Kendall Jenners of the world. And it’s not long before said hairstyles make their rounds within the fashion set. Soon after the fashion set adopts them, those same looks flood your Instagram feed like a tidal wave. Then, like clockwork, one such hairstyle eventually makes an appearance on your own mane.Since we’re well into spring by now, we’ve already taken note of the most prominent looks primed to be the next hairstyles you can’t get off your mind—or your social media feed. And lucky for you, we’re putting you in a position to take on the coolest short-hair trends before everyone adds them to their Pinterest boards. Think French girl–inspired cuts,…
