December 19, 2021 at 06:30AM If you didn’t have your beauty routine nailed down before this year, chances are you have it down to a fine art now. Along with the likes of coffee machines and ultrasoft loungewear, beauty products have proven to be some of the most popular purchases in 2020, with more and more of us shifting our focus from our wardrobes to what lies within our vanity bags and lines our bathroom cabinets.With our social lives largely put on hold, many of us, the Who What Wear UK team included, utilised our time spent indoors to experiment with new makeup, skincare, and haircare. But which products were we buying the most? With our interest piqued, we set about finding out. From John Lewis & Partners and ASOS to Net-a-Porter and Cult Beauty, we asked some of beauty’s top retailers to tell us which five beauty…

December 19, 2021 at 06:07AM When you’re tired of wearing your jeans (and, let’s face it, your joggers) on loop, what should you wear? I can tell you that this has been a hot topic of discussion on the Who What Wear UK Slack channel this week, especially with the new season coming into view. There was talk of new colour trends, the pieces French women always reach for and the coat that always looks so expensive (no matter how much you’ve spent on it). But the one thing we all settled on as a great look that works for now and spring is the classic skirt-and-boot combo. Right now, the skirt needs to say “I’m ready for 2022,” but the footwear needs to say, “Do you realise that it’s still winter?” And trust us—the look is so easy to adapt. Whoever you are and whatever your personal style, there’s a…

December 19, 2021 at 06:04AM If you feel as though Instagram is giving you deja vu with everyone wearing similar outfits, you’re not alone. We can’t stop seeing puffer coats, striped jumpers, knit vests and fleecy teddy jackets on repeat. And do you know what we’ve also noticed? It’s three brands in particular that all of these cult items are coming from, and that’s Totême, Arket and Frankie Shop. With minimalist, classic and effortless pieces in common, it’s no surprise our fashion friends are looking to them all to enhance their winter wardrobes. But they’re also all known for creating a stampede from loyal fans who have the magic power to make certain pieces (looking at you Totême teddy coat), sell out almost immediately. Totême’s quilted coat caused such a stir in 2020 when it sold out, people were paying above the odds to…

December 19, 2021 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…

December 18, 2021 at 06:00AM Carrie Bradshaw is now back on our screens, and just like that many of her wardrobe signatures are making a quick revival. Carrie will forever be associated with corsages, namesake necklaces and Manolos, but to me one of the most Bradshaw trends of all is the ballerina skirt. In the opening sequence of Sex and the City she wore a pink tank top with a white tutu, which stylist Patricia Field found for $5. In series six when Carrie moved to Paris with Aleksandr Petrovsky the ballerina skirt returned for her final scene where she gets slapped and then is reunited with Mr Big. To be precise it was a sage green knee-length tulle skirt.Sarah Jessica Parker has said of the now iconic look: ‘I think I loved the tutu dress that I wore at the end of the…
