Friday FavesDecember 17, 2021 at 11:54AM Hi friends! Happy Friday! How’s the week going? I hope you’re having a wonderful one so far.  I can’t believe Christmas Eve is one week from today. I don’t even feel like I’m truly in the Christmas spirit this year… and it’s SO soon. We’ve been doing lots of fun and festive activities, but I’m not sure when I’ll actually feel like I’m *in it*, ya know? My brain is going a thousand miles a minute and I’m getting work stuff ready for Q1 and feeling kind of overwhelmed in a lot of areas. Yesterday, I finally got my life together while the girls were at school and wrapped a ton of gifts, which was a sigh of relief. Sending you a little note of solidarity and a hug if you’re feeling the same way this year. …

Jennifer Lopez Made This Challenging Denim Style Look Wildly Chic

December 17, 2021 at 08:00AM Jennifer Lopez has really been keeping us on our toes when it comes to her choice denim trends lately. Over just the past week, she’s been out and about in L.A. in skinny jeans, low-rise jeans and now a previously “frumpy” style that’s gone mainstream among the fashion crowd again: pleated jeans (and this isn’t even a first for her).Pleated jeans are everywhere again, and the coolest denim brands are on board, so consider this important proof. As you might’ve guessed, J.Lo’s pleated-jeans outfit isn’t anything like the ones you’re probably picturing from the late ‘80s. (In fact, the only time the word “frumpy” should be used in the same sentence as Jennifer Lopez should be to negate it.) This week, Lopez accompanied Ben Affleck to an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in Hollywood wearing the perfect look for winter in L.A. She…

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

December 17, 2021 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…

If You Have Fine Hair, These Are the Best Short Hairstyles for You

December 17, 2021 at 08:00AM If you have fine hair, you’ve probably gone through your fair share of dry shampoo, fringes sticking to your face, and curls that fall out within minutes.

Sorry, Skinny Jeans—This Denim Trend Is Going to Be Huge

December 17, 2021 at 08:00AM Before we dive in, let’s just remember that in reality, skinny jeans could basically be considered a classic at this point. Sure, people may have varying views on the cut, but they’re more or less timeless. That said, a style on the other end of the denim spectrum continues to increase in popularity—and definitely will thrive come spring. Yep, we’re talking about those loose, straight-leg jeans. More specifically, the silhouettes that are especially relaxed.In fact, since making an appearance again last year, loose-fitting jeans are still very much a present part of the autumn/winter 2021 line-up. Well today, we thought we’d dive in a bit deeper with some visual inspiration on how fashion people are wearing loose-fitting jeans because it’s continuing well into 2022, we think. With that in mind, keep scrolling for a range of outfit ideas featuring…

Experts Tell Me These Are the Jewellery Trends to Invest in for 2022

December 17, 2021 at 08:00AM Is it crazy to start thinking about next year? I don’t think so. I hate to break it to you, but there are less than 40 days until Christmas, which means there are only a few more days than that until 2022. Yes, I know. Anyway, the reason I’m writing about the coming New Year is that I’m thinking about new trends, particularly jewellery trends for 2022. Ever since the pandemic started and we’ve been hooked to our computers and Zoom meetings, various luxury outlets reported a rise in sales of jewellery. Specifically, people are buying fine jewellery that’s great for wearing every day. The idea being that people wanted to elevate their more casual WFH looks with chic necklaces and earrings—the Zoom-friendly options. In 2021, however, Gen Z jewellery trends started to take off. A proliferation of plasticky Y2K-inspired pieces became…

15 Curly Hairstyles That Will Make You Want to Get a Fringe

December 17, 2021 at 08:00AM A decision on whether or not to get a fringe cut in isn’t something to be taken lightly. Yes, fringes can be the perfect way to vamp up a tired style, but it is somewhat of a commitment, especially if you have dedicated time to growing your hair. Being fully on-board with the idea of getting a fringe before you sit down in the salon chair is, if you ask us, absolutely vital if you want to avoid any regret.And this is never truer than it is for those with curly hair. You see, getting a fringe cut into curly strands requires a little more consideration than if hair is straight. Whereas fringes on straight hair are often cut with the hair wet, curly fringes tend to be chopped when the hair is dry in order to take the curl pattern…
