February 22, 2022 at 10:15AM I am obsessed with my natural hair texture. I love how voluminous it can look and how versatile it is to style but what I don’t always love is how tedious it can be to care for. When my hair was relaxed, years before I grew it out it was way less healthy but ultimately it was super easy to style. No matter how lazy I was feeling or what the weather was doing I didn’t have to worry or think about it twice. And I miss that. Not enough to start relaxing again but enough to start to try out temporary straightening treatments to alleviate the need to style my hair at home. Which is when I started booking in for a silk press.Simply put, a silk press is a salon services where natural Afro-textured hair is straightened thoroughly, giving…

February 22, 2022 at 06:09AM Last week, I met someone for a work meeting and instantly knew they were an ARKET person. You can just tell. There’s something so put together yet effortless about the brand’s aesthetic that makes it instantly recognisable. With the innate power to translate seasonal trends in a way that keeps items current, but dateless, it’s all about elevate basics that’ll stand the test of time. And this is why the high street hero is the destination when it comes to a spring capsule.ARKET’s latest spring collection almost comes with the guarantee that you’ll love each item way beyond the season you buy it in. And with every piece being made from more responsible materials, you can also rest assured you’re buying into clothes, accessories and shoes that put people and the planet first.We all rely on H&M’s sister brand…

February 22, 2022 at 08:00AM My mum is no stranger to the Who What Wear scene. Of course, she’s a member of my family, so it’s a given that she has to put up with me talking about and testing beauty products 24/7, but since she has her own background and experience in beauty, trading secrets, application tips, and fave products with her is all the more fun. As I am a beauty editor, you’d think I’d be the one teaching her all of the things, but in reality, she’s taught me some of my most treasured beauty secrets and has turned me on to some of my most beloved products. (Plop her in a drugstore aisle, and she'll pull together an all-star ensemble of cheap makeup picks that will look so expensive on your face.)As someone who had years of experience in front of the…

February 22, 2022 at 08:00AM The knitted-dress trend has come back in a seriously big way in 2022. You might not have realised this, because in many ways, it’s the kind of frock that never really goes out of fashion. However, there’s one key component of this year’s style that French women have been wearing forever. When it comes to knitted dresses in France, les Françaises are more likely to opt for a fitted version. No saggy, loose-fitting sacks for our friends across the channel, thank you very much. Instead, it’s about considered knitwear that is more body-con and has some kind of structure. Case in point: Khaite’s chic black version, which I spotted on Camille Charrière some time ago. The sweetheart neckline is what really makes this dress sing, but I love the demure nature of the long sleeves, too. This season, the brand has brought…
