March 01, 2022 at 11:51AM If I told you that I found the most perfect pair of high-street platform shoes, I would guess that Russell & Bromley wouldn’t be the first place that springs to mind. Historically it has been known for its well-made, classic shoe offering, but recently the brand has branched out into more fashion-savvy styles: Think chunky boots, strappy heels and animal print loafers. We’re so into it. The brand’s latest venture? Platform heels. Coming in pink, cream, black and silver, Russell & Bromley’s fittingly named ‘Flawless’ style is honestly some of the best platforms I’ve seen on the high-street this year.The '70s-inspired shoe was all over the runways and street style shots this season, and we have a feeling it’s going to be big this year. Coming with a chunky heel, delicate ankle strap and round toe, every single Who What…

March 01, 2022 at 10:00AM There are certain style cliches that are attached to certain fashion weeks—for example, London being regarded as ‘eclectic' or Parisians having a penchant for 'timeless’ style—and while these notions are grounded in some truth, they are not the whole picture. Street style as a phenomenon has certainly evolved a great deal since its infancy, and over time it has shifted the industry’s power dynamics and introduced different perspectives to our screens. There is no longer a 'one-size-fits-all’ approach to the style profiles of different cities.This season’s Milan street style shots perfectly speak to the sheer variety that fashion-lovers bring to their own personal catwalks at fashion week: Extroverted snake print! Minimalist tailoring! Sassy platforms! Artistic checks! It’s a veritable fashion safari out there, and after 2 years clad in tracksuit bottoms, we love to see it. And while every show-goer presented their own unique aesthetic, there were 7 themes in particular wove…

March 01, 2022 at 09:38AM Jennifer Lopez is better known for wearing platforms than flats, but even she can’t resist the power of a practical shoe trend. Photographed with Ben Affleck in Los Angeles this weekend, J.Lo wore black Chanel loafers, a Wolford Colorado bodysuit layered under a Dolce & Gabbana jumpsuit, a Bottega Veneta bag, and Prada sunglasses. Phew—that’s a whole lot of designer names all in one outfit. Although Lopez’s shoes are by Chanel, loafers are an extremely easy trend that you can buy at a range of price points. There’s no need to shell out tonnes of money to try the look. And yes, they’re very much on-trend right now. Below, I rounded up my favourite J.Lo-inspired loafers to fit different budgets. On Jennifer Lopez: Wolford Colorado bodysuit (£173); Dolce & Gabbana jumpsuit; Bottega Veneta bag; Chanel loafers; Prada sunglassesI like the little block heel on this…

March 01, 2022 at 08:00AM I rarely venture out of Manhattan, but this weekend, I took a trip with some friends upstate to do some apple picking and sale shopping (the perfect fall day). When we arrived at the mall, my heart soared as I saw so many people wearing and shopping the trends that I had predicted just one or two years ago. Since I tend to keep to quieter parts of New York City, I rarely come across such a large crowd, and my analytical fashion brain was doing its scanning. I felt reminded of the power of trend-spotting—it’s fun to watch something come down the runway and subsequently catch a glimpse of fashion insiders wearing it, and then finally being submerged in crowds dressed up in seemingly Jacquemus-inspired knits and Celine-level tailoring.My little weekend trip inspired me to come home to my fashion editor crystal ball and see…

March 01, 2022 at 08:00AM During the past two to three years, my hair has gone through a lot of ups and downs. In spring 2020, I was noticing it was shedding a ton, which didn’t surprise me all that much since we were at the beginning of a global pandemic. Then, after trying out new supplements, making a couple of healthier changes to my lifestyle, I noticed that my hair shedding was a lot less and I had it under control.Now though, the shedding seems to be at an all-time high and I don’t know what gives! My life doesn’t feel more stressful than normal and I’m trying to make healthier choices, but every time I take a shower I see the clumps of hair, or when I’m vacuuming around my apartment there seem to be strands everywhere. It’s concerning, for sure and I’m…

March 01, 2022 at 08:00AM Within the ever-colliding stratospheres of fashion and beauty, “rules” have become a bit passé, if not obsolete altogether. Gone are the days when we’d refuse to wear white after Labor Day or dismiss navy and black as an ill-conceived colour pairing. Currently, we feel inspired to dye our hair a demurely shocking shade of lavender. A hot-pink eyelid is cooler than yesteryear’s smoked-out cat eye, and we’re even experimenting with crystal-studded manicures and cute-but-clashing polish shades. Our point? It’s an exciting time to be in fashion and beauty, and more so than ever before, our hair, makeup and fashion aesthetic reflect that.Hair, especially, has been the comeback kid of 2021. Previously old-fashioned styles like the mullet have been artistically resurrected, and we currently own more scrunchies, hair claws and butterfly clips than we did circa 1999. Impressive. That said, one…

March 01, 2022 at 08:00AM One thing we’ve noticed about French women is their shared ability to breathe new life into older trends—looks some might even deem “dated.” But with their natural flair and laid-back approach to styling, they have influenced us to wear a trend we previously wrote off. Enter corduroy. While this retro fabric has long been considered a basic, we haven’t seen it as much in the last few years. But make no mistake—if you follow the Gallic-girl dress code, it’s one of the season’s biggest trends.Although the material has roots in the ‘70s, French women are giving their corduroy staples a modern feel, wearing them in fresh new ways. Take Julie Sergent Ferreri, whose bright-pink corduroy suit was one of the sleekest looks we clocked during Paris Fashion Week. And Franny Fyne? She makes her classic tan corduroy blazer feel bang-up-to-date with the addition of crisp ecru…
