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 I’ll let you in on a little secret: I never (well, hardly ever) wear one fragrance at a time. I can’t recall when this became my go-to fragrance routine, but it has certainly stuck. It’s a spritz here and another spritz of something completely different there, and sometimes I even use three or four different perfumes. You become your own perfumer, creating a more personal and unique scent without the elite Grasse certification. What better person than yourself to blend the perfect scent for you, than yourself? Enter fragrance layering—the creative way to use the scents in your fragrance wardrobe to create new unique scents. “I always think about fragrance pairing as a matching of moods and personalities as well. Each scent has its own energy or way of being,” says Phway Su Aye, Co-Founder of Gabar. It’s no different to…

March 23, 2022 at 06:30AM Getting dressed in the mornings right now can be tough. Whether it’s because you’re still in that working from home rut and struggling to remember what your favourite outfits are for leaving the house, or because you’ve only just cracked winter dressing and then spring decides to show up in full force this week. Either way, we’re here to offer you comfort and solutions, because we’re finding ourselves in exactly the same boat. When we, as editors, are finding it difficult to know what to wear at the onset of spring, one of the pieces we reliably turn to year after year is, of course, the dress. It’s one of the best things about dressing for the spring and summer months— an instant outfit that requires minimal effort with maximum impact. Find the right styles and you’ll not only be comfortable all…

March 23, 2022 at 06:30AM I know it’s not a particularly glamorous thing to admit, but I am a hairy gal. My hair is thick, dark and grows at a very impressive rate. It’s not something that I have ever felt particularly self-conscious of, mind you. Rather it’s just a part of life that I have come to accept. Body hair is, after all, very normal. Having said that, I wish I could be one of those people who embrace it because I really have zero hang-ups with the way it looks. The truth is though, I find body hair uncomfortable and as a result, do everything I can to get rid of it. I’ve tried waxing, sugaring, laser and threading, meaning that my pursuit for silky-smooth skin has cost me a bomb over the years. And while I have always been impressed with the results…

March 23, 2022 at 06:09AM When it comes to outfit styling, few events provide as much inspiration as fashion week. Bringing together the fashion world’s most stylish individuals, these events act as a one-stop shop for outfit ideas and styling inspo.With spring well and truly here, I’ve been thinking about the season’s staples and pondering the best trouser-and-shoe pairings. Wide-leg trousers have always illuded me as they seem to be a particularly difficult item to pair with footwear. (Evidently, I’m not alone. We’ve recently seen an increase in searches of the phrase, “shoes to wear with wide-leg trousers.”)Luckily, the street style at Copenhagen Fashion Week, which is always attended by sleek dressers, offered up plenty of inspiration on this exact topic and was a veritable masterclass in how to style wide-leg trousers. Whether you’re looking to style flared jeans, wide-leg leather pants or traditional suit trousers,…

March 23, 2022 at 06:06AM The resurgence of ’90s fashion has resulted in a truly mixed bag of emotions. While the decade can be credited with providing us now-favourable slip dresses and kitten heels, there’s also a raft of trends we’d like to keep in the past. After reaching out to the rest of the Who What Wear team, we reminisced about all the pieces we used to be so proud to own but can’t imagine ever wearing again (we think), as well as the celebrity looks we’ll happily revisit time and again.Just when you think all of the possible forgotten looks from the 1990s had remained hidden, along comes another one. How much do you want a really ridiculously small bag right now? And how much better would it be if it had tiny handles and was rendered in silk-satin (see Kate…

March 23, 2022 at 06:02AM I’m going to turn 38 at the end of the year, and while I have curated my wardrobe staples over the years, I think I've finally settled on a capsule of the below 27 items. Now, well into my 30s, I think it’s safe to say I’m happy with these pieces and I would never switch any of them out for anything else. Yes, newer additions come and go, but these are the ones I wear regularly. I’ve not included items like skirts or wedding-guest dresses because as I’ve mentioned, this is about getting dressed daily, rather than for those special events. This list isn’t about items that are nice to have. This list isn’t about trends, either. This list is all about pieces that will last in your wardrobe, and whenever you wear them, they will make you feel good and look stylish when paired…

March 23, 2022 at 06:00AM M&S has always been considered a go-to for wardrobe basics such as underwear, denim, cashmere and spring coats. But with traditional fashion categories becoming blurrier over the last two years, we’re finding this high-street stalwart to be more relevant than ever. Officewear and casualwear are no longer the key fashion subcategories. Instead, high-low dressing has taken over as a new hybrid approach to fashion that caters to everything from work to weddings.Thanks to its changeable weather, the spring season particularly lends itself to this more flexible approach to dressing, and we already have an ever-growing wish list of stylish yet smart pieces from M&S’s new curated collection, the Edit. In our line-up are the usual suspects: dreamy tailoring, comfy yet cool sandals, throw-on dresses and true blue jeans. We have, however, thrown in a few personality pieces that…
