March 23, 2022 at 10:00AM I don’t know about you, but I’ve been looking forward to season two of Bridgerton since the minute I finished binging the first one back in December 2020. Now, my TV prayers have been answered and the new episodes are set to drop on Netflix this Friday, March 25.Like the book it’s based on, the second season introduces a completely new storyline with new main characters, giving us a chance to obsess over fresh talent. Simone Ashley and Charithra Chandra play sisters Kate and Edwina, who are in a love triangle with Jonathan Bailey’s character Anthony. At the season two premiere red carpet, Ashley wore a Gucci outfit complete with a sheer skirt, lace thigh-high tights, an exposed midriff, and a ruffled neckline. That’s a lot of trends in one look, but Ashley pulled it off with ease. Scroll down to see what…

March 23, 2022 at 08:00AM After months of dreary weather and dark mornings, it’s natural to be excited about spring’s arrival. However, as much as we look forward to the start of the new season, adjusting your wardrobe to accommodate the unpredictable forecasts in March and April can be tricky. There’s more to assembling your spring outfits than you might think. There’s a whole host of new trends to consider, and it’s important to get the balance of being warm but not swamped under thick layers just right.So I am here to help you streamline this process by presenting you with the pieces my knowledgeable colleagues and I consider to be the most versatile and classic spring fashion items you can own. Essentials, go-tos, wardrobe fail-safes—whatever you want to call them, these 12 timeless spring pieces will be the unshakable foundations of any…

March 23, 2022 at 08:00AM Despite being a reluctant dress wearer, I can’t deny that the spring dress offering on the high street is looking pretty appealing this year. I think even my fellow dress-ambivalent fashion lovers might find something that they’re tempted to try. While there’s the usual offering of ditzy florals and floaty prairie dresses, I’ve enjoyed the more tailored styles that have come to the fore, which feel a little more polished. The classic shirt dress is the perfect example of this, and most of the dresses that have caught my eye this season come with pared-back silhouettes, tailored fits and calf-grazing hemlines. I have also found myself drawn to minidresses this March, as seen in this fab denim mini and Mango’s retro-print style, both of which are begging to be worn with cowboy boots and ‘70s sunnies.  But of course, if you can’t get enough of the spring dress classics, there’ll still be plenty of options for…

March 23, 2022 at 08:00AM If you’ve ever followed a YouTube makeup tutorial to a T only to look in the mirror and realise it’s a straight-up no-go on you, your eye shape might have had something to do with it. Sure, the individuality of every human’s face is part of what makes each of us so supremely beautiful in our own ways, but those differences sure do make it more difficult to identify the best makeup for any given person.Identifying your eye shape and employing makeup techniques that complement it might be the only thing standing between you and A+ makeup application. In truth, makeup artists agree that subpar eye makeup that doesn’t take into account the nuances of your eye shape could actually be weighing down your eyes and prematurely ageing you. In the same way that face shape comes into play when trying to figure out everything from…

March 23, 2022 at 08:00AM I cannot tell you the last time that my hair was at the forefront of my mind. Previously, “How should I wear my hair?” was the biggest question of my beauty routine, and now I feel like it’s fallen right to the bottom of my getting-dressed list.The thing is, while I want my hair to look like I’ve invested ample time in styling it, I don’t always have the minutes to spare. But my hair says so much about my current mood and the way that I want to present myself that I don’t want my two-minute style to scream “I really don’t care about my hair"—even if I did basically show my strands no love that morning.Luckily, via my ever-patient hairdresser, I sussed out a cut that is so low-maintenance that even when the biggest effort I make is running a brush through…

March 23, 2022 at 08:00AM In recent years, it was typical to see leggings paired with sneakers or a pair of slide sandals from time to time, but that’s about it. This winter, celebrities have been wearing them outside of the gym a lot more than usual, even dressing them up with chic outerwear and jewellery. And the particular shoe style that’s most often worn with jeans this time of year? Ankle boots.Yes, you read correctly—leather ankle boots (and not just Uggs) have made their way back into celebrities’ legging outfits, many of which have heels. We’ll admit that they look very, very chic. Take Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, for example, in her long vest, athletic leggings, and black suede ankle boots. Want to see more proof? Scroll for the celeb-approved legging-and–ankle-boot outfits that may encourage you to follow suit (and shop stylish leggings and ankle boots, of course).On Jennifer…

March 23, 2022 at 07:00AM In the last year, arguably no fashion item has been spotted more times on the A-list crowd than leather trousers. From Gigi Hadid to Rihanna, the celebrities who rule Hollywood’s street style scene can’t seem to get enough of the sleek alternative to jeans (and we can’t blame them). But until now, most of the pairs worn by celebs have been simple, straight-leg styles. It wasn’t until Kendall Jenner and Devin Booker were seen leaving a Sunday-night double date with Hailey and Justin Bieber that a new leather-trouser style arrived on our radar. Now, we can’t think of anything else.For the occasion, Jenner styled a Y2K-esque long camisole (the sort that was once rife at Tammy Girl) with a pair of ultra-flare leather trousers from Rosetta Getty. She wore the enviable combo with pointed-toe heels and a shoulder bag from The Row. Here’s the catch: Her pull-ons—which somehow made leather…

March 23, 2022 at 06:48AM Seeing how runway trends will transition into real life is always exciting. At the start of every season, we share with you our insights on what the defining trends of the next six months will be, but how they actually pan out on the streets is anyone’s guess. Take pink, for example. It was easily the most prevalent colour in the spring collections, with models wearing the shade top-to-toe. It was even slicked across their eyes, dabbed on their cheeks, and blotted on their lips. Now, we may not wear the shade with such vigour, but we might choose to tap into the aesthetic by way of a dress or an accessory—an interpretation if you will. And here, we’re going to discover how some of our favourite influencers are interpreting spring’s top trends.Since they’re always providing us with…

March 23, 2022 at 06:30AM If there’s only one beauty lesson that everyone should know, it’s that you should always remove your makeup. Leaving makeup on or even *shudders* sleeping in it can cause a whole host of skin problems, from breakouts and dryness to inflammation and irritation. Not properly cleansing your face to remove makeup is a situation you really don’t want to find yourself in.And I’m not talking a quick pass with a face wipe or micellar water, either. Makeup should be properly removed with deep-cleansing formulas. But honestly, I get it. Taking off your makeup every night with a proper cleanser feels like a lot of effort, and it can be all too easy to slip into bed with the promise to yourself that you’ll totally do a mask in the morning, right? The truth is taking makeup off after…
