January 23, 2022 at 06:02AM The world of Instagram is a funny place – one minute we’re liking a picture of a puppy, the next we’re delving into someone’s living room interiors and in quick succession, we’re shopping. We have everything at our fingertips, and something we will always appreciate (as well as cute pets) is the ability to find outfit inspiration in a flash. Whether it’s how to dress like a French girl or the latest colour combinations to try out, there’s no shortage of ways to click refresh on your wardrobe. And let’s face it, during winter, this is more necessary than ever. So, what if we were to tell you an item you most likely already own is the key to winter dressing? Or if you don’t, then you can get it for the same price as a large glass of vino…

January 23, 2022 at 06:00AM Ever stood in front of your wardrobe staring blankly at it, waiting for inspiration? Me too, and I’m a stylist. You’d think putting outfits together would always come easily to me since it’s my job, but the truth is we can all feel a little uninspired by our own closets sometimes. That’s why every so often I like to look to the coolest girls I know for some much-needed styling ideas, and compile a handy catalogue of easy looks I love that are super simple to re-create, even when you’re running late in the mornings.And truly, there’s no better time to do this than at the beginning of the new year when we can all be left a little glum. As we look ahead to spring, it can help us relish in our wardrobes again, rediscovering what we already have…

January 23, 2022 at 06:00AM The old tropes of things being called “in” or “out” have become redundant, as we embrace more of an appreciation for personal style. That doesn’t mean there aren’t styling updates or fresh silhouettes to appreciate, however, and for spring 2022 there really is something for all tastes. In our Spring Summer 2022 trend report, Hannah Almassi writes that for spring designers ‘there are places to go, people to see and the many ensembles to suit.’If you want to dress like it’s the turn of the millenium, there are lots of Y2K items heading to our new-in sections, from crystals to super strappy dresses. However if you like to keep things more simple and classic, then you might be drawn towards the minimalist basics, whether that’s a mini skirt or a beautifully tailored pair of trousers. Floral wrap dreses…

January 23, 2022 at 06:00AM Some people can play piano beautifully or make a mean Victoria sponge, while others are amazing at any sport they put their hand to. But me? I can pick an expensive-looking fashion item from a line-up of high-street pieces. I know, with great power comes great responsibility, right? Ok, but seriously, it’s turned out to be quite a useful skill in my role as Shopping Editor, as I honestly believe that when you look carefully enough, there are plenty of time-tested gems to be found on the high-street. Arket is probably up there with my favourite high-street brands, as I really rate its commitment to clean-lined staples and high-quality fabrics. I always buy my white T-shirts there and I have a lovely red jumper that I literally bought the first week the brand launched in the UK, and it’s still going…

January 23, 2022 at 05:15AM If there’s one thing I know, it’s dresses. My wardrobe is full of them, and I wear them 99.9% of the time. I’ve always struggled with casual (long-time Who What Wear readers will have repeatedly read about my ongoing struggle with denim—sorry to be a bore!), so easy, good-looking frocks are my most trusted fashion staple. I have affordable ones that I wear each and every week. I have special, more expensive ones that come out for important occasions or big meetings. I have those in-between, mid-priced options that bridge the gap between casual days and fancy ones. I own styles that are ultra-summery and best for heatwaves and holiday packing, but I’ve also got a fair number of clever, trans-seasonal styles that can work layered up and with tights in winter or with bare legs and sandals during warmer months. I even…

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…
