Seedy Savory Granola

Seedy Savory GranolaJanuary 18, 2022 at 10:00AM Switch up your granola game with this savory seedy granola. Perfect on its own, topped on granola for a savory breakfast or sprinkled onto a salad for an added nutrition boost! Whip up this recipe in under 30 minutes.  I don’t know why I haven’t thought about sharing savory granola before now! I love making my own granola because I find a lot of store bought brands have unnecessary added ingredients (although Nana Joe’s granola is an exception!). I typically make a sweeter granola so I was so excited to try this savory version. But How the Heck Do I Eat Savory Granola?! You might be thinking, “Sure, savory granola sounds great but what the heck do I eat it with?” Honestly, I think you can eat this savory seedy granola pretty much the same way…

Male Celebrities Dominate Men’s Fashion Week in Milan

January 18, 2022 at 02:30PM Celebrity cameos bring star power to fashion shows. Designers know this: throughout fashion history, high-profile stars like BeyoncĂ©, Dua Lipa, Jared Leto and Jennifer Lopez have been tapped to add an extra air of excitement to the catwalk. With each celebrity casting, the mood of the collection is set by the personality of the star featured. And despite faded novelty, the wonder of seeing a public figure on the runway remains. Since Men’s Fashion Week in Milan kicked off on January 14, celebrity sightings have been the theme of the season. On January 16, audiences were pleasantly surprised to see OG Hollywood actors Kyle MacLachlan and Jeff Goldblum respectively bookend the Prada Fall/Winter 2022 show. Clad in a black overcoat with fur trim and armbands, Goldblum made his way down the runway with ease — looking perfectly at…

Spring/Summer 2022 Trends: The Only 17 Looks You Need to Know About

January 18, 2022 at 06:30AM I am so excited about S/S 22’s fashion trends. The overarching mood was one of real optimism, but where the previous season perhaps went into overdrive with the desire (desperation?) to get dressed up for even the most low-key of weekly grocery shops, the outlook for S/S 22 is that there is a time and place to be extra fabulous but still a strong demand and a necessity for easy, simple, luxurious, gorgeous clothes and outfits you can fling on in a hurry. There are places to go, people to see and the many ensembles to suit. So while on the one hand there’s a very clear shift towards revealing, ultra-sassy, cut-to-here-and-slashed-to-there kind of dressing, there’s also a very chic, understated antithesis at play. It speaks to a modern shopper’s whims and natural inclination to change one’s mind. Some days you might channel Rosie…

The Cult Moisturisers Meghan Markle, Rosie HW, and J.Lo Actually Use

January 18, 2022 at 08:00AM A good cleanser might be the foundation of any successful skincare routine, but finding the right moisturiser can take your skin to the next level. While celebrities might have access to the very best facials and skincare experts in the business, there’s no doubt that most of the A-list have seriously good skin, and a lot of that will be down to the moisturiser they slather on daily.Although there are celebrity exceptions (Emma Stone reportedly loves olive oil, while Pixi Geldof swears by argan oil), a little bit of digging proved that basically all our favourite celebrities were loyal to one moisturiser. Ranging from ÂŁ13 to ÂŁ350, there’s a whole mix of price points and skincare solutions here, but keep scrolling for the very best moisturisers that the likes of Meghan Markle, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Victoria Beckham actually use.After Alexa’s favourite…

The Under-ÂŁ100 Arket Buy I Constantly Spot in the Coolest Homes

January 18, 2022 at 06:42AM If you weren’t already obsessed with homeware at the beginning of last year, we’re willing to assume that you are now. After all, spending inordinate amounts of time in our spaces over the last few years has turned even the least domestic of us into proud interior-decorating fanatics. But no matter how much we’d like to completely renovate our abodes, many of us are restricted by size, time and budget, and starting from scratch is often unrealistic. But rest assured—you needn’t necessarily reach for the paintbrush or invest in costly furniture to give your home an update. Sometimes, the smallest things have the power to alter your perspective completely, and that can certainly be said of this trending homeware buy.As part of our jobs, we’re constantly scrolling through Instagram (someone’s got to do it), and there’s one piece,…

Trust Us—These Are The 12 Skincare Brands That You Can Always Rely On

January 18, 2022 at 06:30AM As a bit of a rule, us beauty editors don’t like being asked ‘What’s the best…’ questions. Not because we don’t know what the best products around are, but because tastes and preferences vary so vastly. While the best retinol for one person might be something gentle, for another that product might seem ineffective. Most of the time, when someone asks after the best anything, we’ll have to ask what your requirements are first.However, when it comes to skincare brands, I’m a little more inclined to make sweeping recommendations. The reason being that some popular skincare brands just get it right every single time. Out of the thousands of brands out there, there are only a few that manage it, I’ll admit, but I believe the ones that do to be the very best.They are the brands that just seem…

The Naked Dress Trend Is Now So Naked That It’s Barely There at All

January 18, 2022 at 06:03AM The naked-dress trend is back, people, and it’s more naked than ever. While this look doesn’t ever seem to fade away, it’s definitely packing quite the punch for 2021. We’ve seen various iterations of the trend over the years, but right now, it seems to fit in one of two different camps: a skin-colour body-con dress or a barely-there dress that’s transparent or sheer or has a strategically placed piece of material (or even a combination of all three). Cher wearing a dress by designer Bob Mackie at the Met Gala in 1974. The naked dress has a long history, of course. Those who are big Cher fans (and who isn’t?) will recall the star’s dedication to creations by designer Bob Mackie, who regularly designed risquĂ© items for the singer. Before that, however, there was Marilyn Monroe’s infamous sheer dress she…

6 Rules French Women Always Follow When Styling Wide-Leg Trousers

January 18, 2022 at 06:05AM My quest to dress more French-like took a turn this weekend when I finally bought into the wide-leg trouser trend. I don’t buy trousers often—most of the time, I find them to be too tight across the bum and hips but too loose around the waist. However, after months of admiring the wide-leg trouser trend from afar, I finally found a pair that seemed to fit the bill. The trouble was, when they arrived, I had no idea how to style them.The knee boots I currently live in made no impact, disappearing under the trouser leg, making them obscure. Although I wasn’t ready to give up just yet, this stumbling block was enough to make me question my purchase. So, as I do in times of sat trial need, I turned to some of my favourite French women to gain insight…

50 Years on, This Bangle Is Still the Ultimate Status Symbol

January 18, 2022 at 06:02AM My grandma is a practical woman—growing up on a rural farm in Canada will do that to you. She’s also incredibly knowledgeable, as all grandmas tend to be. This potent combination means that you will do well to listen when she gives advice. I’ve made many of my most significant life decisions based on her sage advice alone. (I regret none.) And one of the lessons she’s taught me and continues to stand by is that fine jewellery is a wise investment.Flashy is not a word I’d use to describe her, but a peek inside her jewellery box would tell you otherwise. A small edit it may be, but every piece inside it is of the highest quality, with some illustrious names thrown in. One name that’ll get you places in the world of fine jewellery is Cartier.Founded in Paris in…
