What to Never Wear on a Plane, From a Flight Attendant

February 13, 2022 at 08:00AM Despite how much we admire celebrity airport style, it’s not always so easy to figure out what you should wear on a plane when push comes to shove, especially now that many of us have put our travel plans on pause for a while. Stilettos and high-waisted leather pants look great in paparazzi shots of stars strutting through airport terminals, yet in action, these statement-making ensembles can prove a bit trickier. And though we’d all love to look our best when hitting the skies, certain wardrobe pieces are best left in a checked bag or carry-on. Who better to inform us of what to never wear on a plane than someone who works at 35,000 feet? We reached out to American Airlines flight attendant Andrea Fischbach to spill her list of things you shouldn’t wear when flying for the sake…

11 Brands That Prove Gorgeous Lingerie Shouldn’t Cost a Fortune

February 13, 2022 at 08:00AM The saying “you get what you pay for” applies to so many things in fashion, but one thing we struggle to justify it for is lingerie. Never has so little fabric amounted to so many pound signs as it does when you peruse luxury lingerie. And seeing as it’s something we wear, quite literally, every single day, it’s not something we’re prepared to spend our entire salary on, which is why we’ve scoured the digital shopping sphere to bring you the best affordable lingerie brands we can find.Emmanuelle Koffi wears a white lace lingerie set from Gooseberry Intimates. While they’ll save you some pennies in the process, if there’s one thing these affordable lingerie brands don’t skimp on, it’s style. From comfortable jersey triangle bralettes and big briefs to lace-trimmed teddies and even sultry see-through shorts, from an array…

I’m Having a Wardrobe Refresh for 2022 and Keeping These Items

February 13, 2022 at 08:00AM I know the whole ‘new year, new me’ thing is a cliché, but when it comes to my wardrobe I’ve been really feeling the urge to give it a good old cleanse lately. Since that feeling coincided with the start of a new year, I thought it was the perfect excuse to step back and take stock of what I really wear, and what pieces are just gathering dust. It may have something to do with the fact that I recently turned 30 and moved house, but it’s also become obvious (since working from home more regularly) that I don’t wear half my clothes anymore. So a tighter capsule edit of perfect pieces is going to clear some much needed storage space and make getting dressed in the mornings a lot easier.And I know I’m not alone in this— every…

Kate Middleton Wore My Fave Expensive-Looking Trend (No Royal Budget Necessary)

February 13, 2022 at 08:00AM No number of Zara jumpers or Accessorize earrings could make Kate Middleton actually seem relatable, try as she might. No offense, Duchess. It’s just that a royal-sized budget, jewel-encrusted tiaras and worldwide fame are a tad out of reach for the average person. That said, you certainly don’t need to spend big bucks to re-create many of the Duchess of Cambridge’s outfits, including her most recent one.Middleton was photographed with Prince William at an event for Church on the Street, a charity that aims to lift people out of poverty. For the occasion, she wore a Massimo Dutti coat, Iris & Ink jumper and skirt and Missoma earrings. Her camel coat, in particular, stood out because it’s such an expensive-looking trend that will make you look polished and stylish without any effort at all. Scroll down to re-create Kate Middleton’s camel-coat outfit, and shop similar pieces. On Kate Middleton: Massimo Dutti…

It’s Official: These Are the Most Popular Shoes of 2022

February 13, 2022 at 06:30AM With track-sole boots becoming virtually ubiquitous last winter, it was only a matter of time before the chunky-sole trend infiltrated other types of footwear. That’s why it hardly came as a surprise in 2021 when we started seeing statement loafers launch across luxury and high-street brands. When it comes to designer brands, Prada has been one of the labels at the forefront of this trend. The Italian fashion house launched logo-embellished chunky loafers in 2020, garnering the attention of models and influencers including Elsa Hosk, Pernille Teisbæk and more. (The coveted style has since sold out across multiple platforms.) Understandably, several other brands have also embraced the trend, with Proenza Schouler adding its signature contrast stitching to a pair of platform leather loafers, and Dr. Martens collaborating with Comme des Garçons on its own version of the shoe. Worn alongside jeans and knits or pleated skirts and sweatshirts, the footwear trend has an…
