January 22, 2022 at 08:00AM Thin hair can be difficult to style. Trust me—I know. I’ve tried to make my naturally thin hair look thicker and fuller ever since I was in middle school and my mum let me get my hands on a hot tool. Since then, I’ve cycled through plenty of hairstyles, volumising products, and thickening techniques. Some have worked, but most haven’t. That’s okay. Somewhere along the way, I’ve learned to live and work with my naturally thin hair (sigh), and the style I choose to wear it in has a lot to do with that. For example, I’ve learned a slick-straight style doesn’t do my thin hair any favours, which is why I tend to go with tousled, textured waves instead. So yeah, I had my opinions on what hairstyles work best for my thin, medium-length hair, but I was wondering what experts…

January 22, 2022 at 08:00AM Let’s face it: We spend so much time putting our everyday outfits together and reading up on and shopping the latest fashion trends that lingerie seldom gets a look in. When you’re pushed for time in a morning, those final five minutes before you rush out the door (or to your home office if that’s still the case for you) are typically dedicated to final applications of makeup or choosing which shoes go best with the rest of your ensemble. More often than not, underwear is an afterthought. But that shouldn’t be the case. Like with every other garment or accessory we wear, there are trends worth paying attention to. After all, as satisfying as it is to know that you’re killing it in the outfit department, isn’t it even more satisfying to secretly know that your underwear is equally on point?…

January 22, 2022 at 08:00AM I don’t want to get ahead of myself—I know there’s still lots of mileage in winter yet—but try as I may, I can’t help but let my sartorial attention shift towards the new season and, dare I say, spring. Putting the “s” word to one side for a second, I do believe it’s important to keep your feet firmly planted in the present, but it does also pay to cast an eye on the future. Sometimes, seasons can change like the flick of a switch, and the last thing you’ll want is to feel caught out where your outfits are concerned. This is where colour plays an integral role.Nothing has the power to change the tone of your look quite like the colours you choose, and I feel like, as new-in sections start to blend between winter and spring,…

January 22, 2022 at 08:00AM Without fail, every year, there tends to be one bold haircut that dominates beauty trend reports and shoots to the top of the most-requested list at high-street salons for those of us feeling brave enough for a change. In 2020, it was the shag. In 2021, it was the mullet. And in 2022, there is already one haircut that looks set to reign supreme: the mixie. “The mixie haircut is a really fun, edgy haircut we’ll see coming through in 2022 and is a cross between the mullet and a pixie—short at the front, longer and choppier at the back,” explains Adam Reed, UK editorial ambassador for L'Oréal Professionnel. “The look is a renaissance of the wolf or shag retro haircut which we’ve seen come through this year, and this look is ideal for those looking to experiment with short hair.”And while it…

January 22, 2022 at 08:00AM How does Jennifer Lopez dress for a date night in Los Angeles? Well, for dinner with Ben Affleck at celebrity-favourite restaurant Craig’s, she kept it sleek and simple in a slim-fit tank top, high-waisted, wide-leg trousers, and some designer jewellery. (Oh, and don’t forget her best accessory of all: her ripped arms.)Wide-leg trousers are a fun trend to experiment with if you’ve been wearing your go-to skinny jeans to shreds lately. The pants are super comfortable and easy to wear yet look a lot more polished than denim, making them perfect for date night.
