February 07, 2022 at 06:00AM When I first started experimenting with my natural hair texture, I knew I needed to find myself a good diffuser. My hair is quite low porosity so a lot of it takes ages to dry. Then I noticed when I did let it air-dry it would feel more brittle and frizz quickly compared to when I used heat to set my coils. My hair felt smoother and my style lasted longer when I used a hairdryer with a diffuser attachment to dry my hair. If you’ve noticed that air-drying often has the same impact on your hair as me and you’re on the hunt for the best hair diffusers, I’ve got you covered.One thing that’s key to note when styling with a diffuser, is that I found that part air-drying to about 50% (so damp to touch) and then using a…

February 06, 2022 at 06:35AM Here in the UK we might be in coats and boots, but Los Angeles-based Kendall Jenner is able to start wearing her spring wardrobe in the dead of winter. That said, Jenner isn’t the type to bust out the pastels and floral prints. She instead this week went with a black-and-white look that’ll be perfect for the impending weather warm-up in March and April (fingers crossed).Jenner’s outfit is really quite simple, and it includes an affordable basic that we here at Who What Wear talk about every single year: a white ribbed tank top. In this case, she displayed the perfect way to wear it: with black jeans and an oversized black button-down shirt. It’s the ideal springtime layering piece and it’ll be great on its own during the summer when the word “layering” temporarily exits our vocabulary. Even designer versions…

February 06, 2022 at 08:00AM We may have to wait a while longer before we can start donning the clothes spring/summer 2022 has to offer (that or risk freezing—winter has just begun after all), but there is one item from the runway that we can start adding to our wardrobes imminently: handbags. Ideal for impatient types, handbags are the easiest way to kick-start your new-season capsule. And seeing as bags were at the bottom of our shopping priorities at the start of 2021, due to the pandemic and spending time indoors, now’s the moment to make up for lost time.Luckily for said impatient types, we’ve discovered that many of the top handbag trends we spotted on the runway are already on the shopping circuit. What are these trends, we hear you ask? Well, they’re a versatile bunch.Texture remains a key accessory aesthetic, though the…

February 06, 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…

February 06, 2022 at 08:00AM If you have fine hair, you’ve probably gone through your fair share of dry shampoo, fringes sticking to your face, and curls that fall out within minutes. Styling fine hair and experimenting with cuts in the search for volume can often be tricky to master. Going for the crop or styling your already-short hair might be all you need to do to work with the texture that you’ve got. Short hair means volume, and that’s always what we’re going for, right? Thanks to some expert advice from Michael Lendon, creative director of Aveda, and Christel Lundqvist, founder of Stil Salon, we’ve got some pro tips for you to implement. Combine that with the best product picks for adding volume and texture, and you’ll be well on your way to finding the best hairstyle to make your routine easier. Ready for some style inspiration?

February 06, 2022 at 08:00AM Kendall Jenner, top model and Fwrd’s creative director, knows more about fashion trends than the average person. In fact, she’s responsible for setting many of them, so it was no surprise when she stepped out for an event (celebrating Fai Khadra’s collaboration with Oliver Peoples) earlier this week wearing one that’s going to be everywhere in 2022: a micro miniskirt.Back in October when the S/S 22 collections debuted, the super-short skirt trend heated up runways of Miu Miu, Missoni, Knwls, and Blumarine, to name a few. It’s the latest in a long string of revived Y2K trends, and Jenner’s take on it was especially polished. She paired a tiny leather skirt with a camel top and long-sleeve mock-neck, completing the look with a pair of knee boots. (If you’re not sure how to approach styling such a short skirt,…

February 06, 2022 at 08:00AM We routinely turn to Janet Gunn, the 58-year-old influencer behind The Grateful Gardenia, for sartorial guidance. And while age should have nothing to do with your style choices, we’re always interested in her fashion viewpoint specifically given her experience over the years building a well-rounded wardrobe. Today, we wanted to gain further insight into some of the go-to shoe silhouettes she swears by. And while she wears a variety, there’s one key style she wears on repeat and will never retire. Yes, flat shoes, given their comfortable and versatile nature.Below, you’ll uncover the six flat shoe styles Gunn will never give up, complete with styling notes from her. And if you’re inspired in adding one of her must-have silhouettes into your arsenal as well, we also rounded up chic styles to consider if you’re shopping at the moment.“These are timeless shoe styles…

February 06, 2022 at 07:00AM There’s nothing like finding a really expensive-looking piece of clothing and discovering it’s actually affordable, is there? As editors we do a lot of scrolling for research for our Who What Wear articles, and we’re used to seeing beautiful outfits from influencers and fashion people. But so often they’re made up of high end designer pieces that most of us would probably have to spend a long time saving up for. We’re all for investing in quality over quantity, but when we do come across a chic, timeless outfit that turns out to be from the high street— you can imagine our excitement.  Jessica wears H&M co-ord.By now we’ve managed to work out some common threads between these expensive-looking outfits. Whether that’s the brands that pop up the most, or the specific styles the high street seems to be able to do best. So, as we really get into…

February 06, 2022 at 06:59AM For my birthday last year, instead of shopping for a new dress, I decided to dig deep into the archives of my own wardrobe. If you haven’t done this recently, I highly recommend as I found hidden gems that deserve to be taken notice of. One being the H&M knitted midi dress I first wore six years ago at London Fashion Week. I remember styling it with a pair of striped mules and gold hoops, and if it isn’t broke why fix it? So I wore this exact same outfit for my birthday dinner, and I love it as much now as I did back then. I’ve also realised I now own five knitted dresses, all of which I wear on heavy rotation across all seasons. So versatile, there’s something about the timeless knit fabric that makes any dress style–from…
