March 25, 2022 at 08:00AM Generally, I don’t subscribe to fashion “rules”—I’m more of a “if you like it, then wear it” sort of fashion editor—but there is one I stand by: Never wear white to a wedding. I’ve been to so many weddings in my time that being a wedding guest could pass for my side hustle. And you’d be surprised at how many people commit this faux pas. Sure, you can always clear it with the bride first—I know from firsthand experience that some aren’t phased with guests wearing white—but that doesn’t mean everyone else in attendance knows you’ve been granted permission. With the inevitable side-eye you can receive from less-liberal guests, wearing white to a wedding is something I suggest you avoid. Victoria Beckham stands for a photograph with Anders Christian Madsen and Christine Centenera before setting off for the wedding of Edward Enninful…

March 25, 2022 at 08:00AM We admit street style during fashion month can get a little wild. There are some people who go all out for shows in fabulous tulle dresses and heels higher than you could ever imagine walking in (let alone looking effortlessly fabulous in)—and we have the utmost respect for them. But it’s not all feathers and tutus. Most of us attending are running around from show to show, jumping on the Tube and dealing with gale force winds (thanks, Eunice) as we try to scoff a Pret sandwich before the next event begins. This also means our outfits actually need to be easy, comfortable and mostly practical, as well as chic. That’s not to say these looks are any less inspiring. On the contrary, it’s often the more understated, wearable outfits that get us the most excited when we spot them across…

March 25, 2022 at 06:30AM Today is the day. After many moons of waiting, Bridgerton season two is finally out. And while everyone is focused on the plot lines, costumes and set, I’ve got something else on my mind. If you haven’t already binged the lot (I had my alarm set—what can I say?), you might not be aware of just how completely and totally stunning the beauty looks are. From the hairstyles to the glowy complexions, everything about the second season of Bridgerton oozes beauty. Compared to the first season, the looks are significantly different. This time around, the makeup is notably more wearable. In fact, one particular aspect of the beauty looks had me googling the show’s makeup artist as soon as I saw the first trailer. I simply had to know what product was giving every character’s skin that dewy, lit-from-within glow. And after a bit of…

March 25, 2022 at 06:30AM Don’t get me wrong. I love makeup. But recently I have felt a little wronged by so many of the brands that I swear by. You see, as a beauty editor, it can be really easy to get lost in the results of a product without taking into account the price of it. Recently, I stumbled across an old favourite foundation, so I hooked it back out and started wearing it again.I started receiving compliments on my Zoom calls and FaceTime chats with friends and started recommending the base to anyone who would listen. It wasn’t until a close girlfriend texted me the following that I realised something needed to be done: “Why have you just spent 10 minutes selling me on a foundation that costs £60? I just went to buy it, and I feel wronged. I was expecting…

March 25, 2022 at 06:10AM Here at Who What Wear UK, we firmly believe that you don’t need to part with serious cash to get your hands on that perfect mood-lifting look, and with both the high street and second-hand platforms offering up plenty of winning, affordable pieces right now, giving your wardrobe a refresh has never been easier. Add to this the fact that countless fashion brands are starting to realise the power of a well-made staple (rather than just transient trends), and you’ve got yourself a pretty ideal shopping situation. Case in point: On my wish list this month is everything from H&M’s orange suit and a polka-dot skirt from Mango to a sharp vintage blazer and a super-versatile pair of straight-leg jeans. Together, they make the ideal new-season capsule. So much goodness, so little time. So if you’re looking for that little sartorial pick-me-up, keep scrolling to see which under-£100…

March 25, 2022 at 06:05AM Here at Who What Wear UK, we know how much you, our lovely readers, love a bit of fashion escapism, advice on investment buys and updates on the latest and greatest runway trends. But it’s not always the most useful—often it’s the more realistic, affordable—outfit ideas that hit the mark more pertinently. And in recent times, with everyone understandably tightening their purse strings a little more, one of the requests we get a lot is about how to shop your own wardrobes without spending a penny. Well, you ask, and it shall be given.We know just as well how easy it is to become apathetic to those old faithfuls that have been hanging in your wardrobe for years. Once they’ve lost the shiny appeal of newness, they can fade into the background and become part of the sartorial wallpaper. However, in our experience,…

March 25, 2022 at 06:00AM Spring has finally arrived this week, and boy, we couldn’t be happier. We can finally pack away our Michelin Man puffer coats, swap our chunky boots for Velcro-strap sandals and reacquaint ourselves with the magical, eye bag–covering joy of big sunglasses. This year, we have also found ourselves falling back in love with skirts, a wardrobe category that has played second fiddle to the dress in recent years.Designers and high-street brands alike have turned their attention to the humble skirt in all its facets for spring 2022, which has manifested in a wide range of styles and silhouettes coming to the fore. Column skirts, slips, circle skirts, midis, minis, leather, denim… You name it; a brand will have created it. Well, we decided to give you a bit of a rundown of the four key skirt trends that we are personally backing for 2022. Plus, we shopped them out to give you a head start. Scroll…

March 25, 2022 at 06:02AM Aïda wears a striped knit from Arket.We can’t wait for spring to be filled with picnics in the park, al fresco lunches and beer-garden hang-outs. As such, we’re already dreaming up the ensembles we’ll wear for said sunny events. If you too are starting to outfit-plan, please allow us to turn your attention to the three brands leading the spring shopping charge. Arket, COS and H&M consistently catch our attention with their on-trend wares, but this spring, they seem to have outdone even themselves with their impressive array of style-defining pieces. Each retailer has created springtime edits that tick off the season’s biggest trends. Think pastel shades, slouchy tailoring, ribbed knitwear and beautiful dresses—all at prices that won’t bring a tear to your eye. But don’t just take our word for it. Let us show you.
