January 19, 2022 at 06:04AM Some people love the cold; others would prefer to live in perpetual heat. Me? I’m somewhere in the middle, in that I like dressing for the cold, but as for being cold? I hate it. That’s why I’m always looking for new and exciting ways to style myself through the winter months. With a few months of the season still ahead of us, I thought a fresh dose of winter outfit inspiration was something we could all do with right about now. So, I set off on a quest to find some elevated examples. What I didn’t expect to stumble across were the six trends that, try as I may, just kept cropping up. I dove deep into an Instagram hole, scouring the platforms of the most stylish dressers I know. When I came up for air, a handful of very specific winter outfit…

These 16 Comfy Basics Will be A Welcome Addition to Any Wardrobe

January 19, 2022 at 06:00AM As fashion editors we can be guilty of neglecting the ‘sensible’ foundations of our wardrobe, and dedicating our attention (and spending money) towards more exciting purchases, such as dresses for weddings or party shoes. However every now and then our collection of staples deserves a little TLC too, whether that’s a new pair of leggings or loungewear that we will actually be excited to wear. The thing about basics is that even though they might be simple and practical, you need to pay extra attention to the design and detailing to ensure they will last and elevate your outfits. A poorly fitting T-shirt or sagging pair of leggings can really change the whole vibe of an outfit, and so can require an extra attention to detail.Gilly Hicks is a brand that focuses on underwear, loungewear and activewear, and sits alongside the loved American brand Hollister.

I Practically Collect Zara Blazers—Here Are 26 New Styles I Really Rate

January 19, 2022 at 05:56AM Jessica Skye wears a double-breasted cream Zara blazer. You don’t need to be a shopping editor to know that certain high-street stores do certain items best. Personally, I find Mango always has the strongest coats. Arket is where I automatically head to stock up on knitwear, and & Other Stories dresses are easily my favourite. As for Zara? While I could talk at length about its excellent shoe selection and could-be-designer arm candy, there’s another piece for which the brand is known: blazers. Hannah Crosskey wears a navy-and-red checked Zara blazer. It’s almost impossible to think of a time when blazers didn’t dominate my wardrobe. Sure, I’d worn them at school. (I was probably one of the only students who dutifully did so and, dare I say, enjoyed it.) However, after leaving high school and enrolling at art school, they served no purpose in my closet.…

January 19, 2022 at 05:26AM Now that we’re actually in 2022, the predicted S/S 22 trends that hit the runways this past autumn are actually starting to come to fruition (especially in the form of celebrity sightings). The latest celeb to be an early adopter of an anticipated spring trend is Jennifer Lopez, who was out shopping with her daughter this weekend at The Grove in L.A.Although micro miniskirts have been particularly buzzy after their presence on multiple spring runways (and on Kendall Jenner, most recently), maxi skirts have actually been equally buzzy among the fashion crowd after being seen on the S/S 22 runways of Chanel, Gabriela Hearst, and Chloé, to name a few. And it’s worth noting that the skirt style that's devoid of buzz this season is the midi skirt. (Although, it can definitely be argued that it’s a classic as opposed to a trend at this point.)For…

How to Recreate Lori Harvey’s $3,700 Dior Beach Outfit

January 19, 2022 at 12:55AM Lori Harvey has proven that even swimming with sharks is an opportunity to make a fashion statement. While in the Bahamas, Lori passed up the predictable bikini in favor of a retro 2003 Dior T-shirt paired with an Erika Maish crochet miniskirt. Layered like a cake from a five-star bakery, the handmade skirt features accents in sandy brown, sailor blue, and purple-and-green stitching reminiscent of the Little Mermaid’s tail. The hem of Lori’s skirt was adorned with pale blue sequins that shimmered so bright, we almost forgot she was surrounded by sharks. In total, the outfit, styled by Maeve Reilly, was about $3,700. Lori also wore a gold Cartier Juste un Clou bracelet ($3,400), a vintage mother-of-pearl Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra bracelet ($3,975), diamond Sophia hoops ($16,250), and a diamond high-neck body chain ($10,500) by Jacquie Aiche.…
