February 23, 2022 at 06:30AM There’s no doubt that Le Labo’s widely adored fragrance Santal 33 is one of the most defining scents of the last decade. From Alexa Chung to Justin Bieber, some of the most iconic celebrities have professed their love for the unisex scent. And in all honesty, I’d go as far as to say that it was Santal 33 that put unisex fragrances back on the map. Before it, the offering of unisex scents didn’t stretch far beyond Calvin Klein’s CK One. Nowadays, however, if a new fragrance launch doesn’t work for men just as well as it does women, we don’t want to hear about it.It’s true that more ‘traditionally’ male fragrances are having a moment (although we believe there really is no place for gender in fragrance marketing), but it was Santal 33’s unique and unrivalled freshness that made many realise that life didn’t have…

February 23, 2022 at 06:30AM When it comes to curating my beauty bag, I don’t tend to invest blindly in a singular brand. Having spent years trialling and testing the latest beauty launches, I’ve assembled quite the diverse collection of products from an extensive array of labels, to which I remain faithful. That is until I happen upon something that impresses me more. And lately, I find myself switching out many of my go-to products for options from one particular brand: Charlotte Tilbury.My inaugural Charlotte Tilbury purchases were, somewhat unsurprisingly, its cult Pillow Talk lipstick and liner. The colour payoff and delicate formula were unlike any other lipstick and liners I’d tried. And honestly, along with a few other essential Charlotte Tilbury shades, I haven’t allowed anything else to touch my lips since. My interest piqued, I then moved on to Charlotte Tilbury’s Beauty…

February 23, 2022 at 06:00AM I am not a high heels person and my feet are basically like tissue paper, meaning that I can’t help but roll my eyes whenever anyone tells me any shoes are comfortable, let alone heels. It usually takes me weeks to wear in a new pair of shoes, and so I was prepared for the worst when I attempted to wear some new platform heels. This year stacked, chunky platforms have made a comeback, and so I tried a velvet pair of sandals by Russell and Bromley. The heel is approximately 8.5cm, but they feel really solid to walk in thanks to the 3cm platform. The first time I wore them I lasted seven hours, and so in the ultimate test wore them for two full days of shows for London Fashion Week. I walked 20,000 steps in the heels,…

February 23, 2022 at 06:00AM In our experience, some of the most stylish wardrobes are made-up of a combination of high-street, designer and vintage. This is an approach that us editors at Who What Wear like to take with our own personal style, and London Fashion Week (you can see all our outfits here) is the perfect example of these three things coming together. But, we just wanted to take a moment to particularly celebrate all the the hard-working high-street buys that act as the glue in our outfits. Some pieces sit in the ‘staples’ category, such as Arket’s white T-shirt and M&S’s colour-pop long-sleeve top, while others are more statement-making (but no less versatile) styles, including Hannah’s incredible Warehouse suit and my striped trousers from Kitri. But, every single one comes personally vetted by us—if wearing it to LFW isn’t a stamp of approval, then we don’t know what is—and has passed with…

February 23, 2022 at 06:00AM While the aim of my skincare and makeup routines during my teenage years and early 20s was always clear—combat breakouts and minimise the appearance of spots—my 30s have been an entirely different ballgame so far. When I turned 30 in April 2019, I was in the very early stages of pregnancy and working full-time in central London. The grind of the daily commute and a busy social life and work calendar combined with first trimester nausea and, later, intense pregnancy exhaustion meant that—hormonal breakouts aside—my beauty aims quickly shifted to finding products that would make me look less tired pronto.And my quest has pretty much remained the same since. Fast forward nearly three years and we’ve all been through a global pandemic (exhausting to say the least), I’ve discovered what it’s like to live with a tiny human who is still yet to discover…

February 23, 2022 at 05:54AM EN-ER-GY! After settling back into regular life after a very fabulous stay at The Londoner Hotel for London Fashion Week, and combing one by one through all of the runway shows, digital look-books and videos that were released over the past few days, I can literally feel the high-octane buzz all over again. London may not have had its gigantic designer blockbuster moments of years gone by, but it’s always been about innovation, burgeoning talent, vibrant street style and pushing the boundaries anyway, and this February’s line-up delivered it by the truck-load, old-school style.Where the past few seasons have almost willed us into a new, post-pandemic era of possibilities, this time it actually started to seem, well, real. Maybe we could go to those parties after all. Maybe we will have an excuse to get dressed up. Maybe, just maybe, that dust-covered suitcase and holiday capsule will…

February 23, 2022 at 05:00AM Pat yourself on the back because you’ve done it. You’ve made it through the darkest days of winter! I’m sure you’ll agree, that felt like a *particularly* long one. And although mother nature seems to have a troublesome weather system or two up her sleeve, there’s nothing that can get in the way of the fact that it’s now light at 5pm, and the crocus’ and daffodils are starting to appear in the park— Hoorah! That means spring is officially on its way, and in my eyes that’s as good a reason as any to celebrate. One of the best things about a new season is that it makes us all feel more inspired with our wardrobes, doesn’t it? The change in weather from winter to spring brings a whole host of opportunities for new outfits, less layers and a…
