January 20, 2022 at 06:03AM At this point, I’ve smelled almost every Byredo fragrance there is. It’s easy to see why the Stockholm-based brand is so popular; in addition to the incredibly chic and minimal packaging, the unisex scents are as unique as they come yet undoubtedly wearable and intriguing as well. Trust me—everyone will ask you what scent you’re wearing when you spray on Byredo, and anything you buy from the brand is worthy of the price tag, but I’m here to help you narrow it down (there are so many good ones to choose from).For my own fragrance-buying mission and for your fragrance-buying missions (I’m here to serve), I asked Byredo to send me samples of their best-selling scents, and they kindly obliged. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been switching up my scent on a daily basis, because variety is the spice of life, and…

January 20, 2022 at 06:03AM No one makes fast fashion look expensive quite like Kate Middleton, but after looking into the contents of the outfit she wore at her and Prince William’s first public outing of 2022, it’s clear that she’s outdone herself this time. For an official visit to the Foundling Museum in London, Middleton did what she does best—i.e., rewearing her favourite wardrobe items from affordable brands like Zara and the UK-based label Jigsaw. In addition to her sold-out blue coat from the latter brand, which she first wore in January 2020, Middleton grabbed a £20 black turtleneck jumper from Zara and a pair of matching Jigsaw trousers that just so happen to be majorly trendy right now. The high-waisted slacks are wide-leg and slightly long, allowing them to puddle around her pumps, which are from Emmy London. The style, often referred to as puddle trousers, has become a frequent street style sighting, popping up on…

January 20, 2022 at 06:00AM Is there anything more satisfying than finding your nude lipstick? As a Black woman, this journey has not been smooth sailing, there has been ashiness and some rather horrible mishaps that should never be made public. Alas, I have made it and the quest to find my nude lipstick has come to an end and I can confirm, it’s a good place to be. A nude lipstick is what the little black dress is to your wardrobe—it’s a staple, a classic and always the right choice. The trick in picking a nude that works for you is ‘that we choose a shade that’s subtle but at the same time harmonises the skin'’ says Sasha Ghodstinat, Code8 Global Makeup Artist. Find a shade that works with your undertones—as a rule of thumb if you’re on the warmer end of the…

January 20, 2022 at 06:02AM The team at Who What Wear UK prides itself on uncovering cult items before they’ve even made it off the production line. We’re keen, to say the least, and a great portion of our time is spent documenting and analysing the Instagram posts of the thousands of cool women we follow on Instagram for high-street sightings. In fact, we have WhatsApp groups and Slack channels dedicated to these affordably priced power pieces, and we want to update you on them as soon as possible (after we’ve bought our faves).Our skills are so attuned that, more often than not, we’ll have an inkling about a certain piece before it has hit the big time. Sometimes, you’ll find a flurry of brand-specific action due to a paid activation or a natural desire to wear a particular thing or label. But…

January 20, 2022 at 06:00AM In the clothing category alone, there are 19,540 items on Mytheresa. Needless to say, when I was challenged with the task of picking just 16 hero items (within four categories), I felt overwhelmed. But I used all of my well-honed scrolling powers to come up with a definitive edit of wardrobe workhorses that are worth your time and attention this year.I opted for four styles that will not only serve you now while the weather is still wintery but will also adapt to the spring months with ease. I’m talking everything from homespun knits and versatile accessories to elevated jackets and souped-up skirts. Take Prada’s grey pleated midi skirt, for example, which will pair beautifully with a cashmere roll-neck and chunky boots for the rest of January and February. And come March, you can swap in a white…
