Fact: This High-Street Brand Does Amazing Loungewear

December 14, 2021 at 06:00AM While we will always make time for extroverted outerwear and statement-making accessories, when it comes to basics, less is often more. Just think of base layers like leggings, underwear and hoodies: More often than not, you just want these items to do their jobs with minimal fuss. Of course, we still want a nod to good design, but it has to be paired with functionality. Gilly Hicks is totally on-point in this regard, delivering hard-working staples season after season in versatile silhouettes and appealing colourways.Perhaps some of you are working at home, or maybe you’re simply looking forward to living in elasticated trousers from the evening of 24 December onwards.

The Easy Two-Part Outfit Every Editor on Our Team Swears By

December 14, 2021 at 05:56AM Any outfit that takes less than 30 seconds to style is a total miracle in our book. Last year, it was all about the chunky-boots-and-jeans aesthetic, which, when worn with a shacket, became the fail-safe outfit option for winter walks and outdoor socialising. This year, however, there’s a new ensemble proving a hit amongst those in the know, one that’s just as easy to re-create.A couple of weeks ago, our editors came together to share their favourite winter outfits. That was when we realised many of us were wearing the same look on repeat. Although all of our colleagues have their own unique sense of style and tend to gravitate towards different things, we agreed that slip skirts and jumpers are where it’s at right now. Offering just the right amount of polish (via the slip’s satin fabric) alongside a…

Kate Middleton’s French Sister-in-Law Wore My Fave Affordable Parisian Brand

December 14, 2021 at 05:41AM Kate Middleton’s sister Pippa never needed an introduction again after that bridesmaid dress, but now there’s yet another chic member of the family to keep an eye on. In September, Alizee Thevenet married Kate and Pippa’s brother, James Middleton, and she has a cool, relaxed kind of style that I think you’ll love. Thevenet is French, works as a finance director in London, and from the looks of her Instagram, happily co-parents James’s five dogs. How cute are they? Thevenet and Middleton recently attended a carol service at Westminster Abbey hosted by the Duchess of Cambridge. For the royal affair, Thevenet stayed true to her French roots and wore a suit by Sèzane, an affordable Paris-based brand. The label has long been my favorite for under-£200 pieces with Parisian flair, including striped tops and plaid blazers. Scroll down to see how she…

My Cozy Puffer Jacket Is a Designer Lookalike That Fools My Friends (and It’s on Sale Today!)

December 13, 2021 at 09:41PM I am all in on the puffer jacket trend - I love the idea of wearing something that feels like I’m snuggled up in a sleeping bag, but actually appears to be stylish. I was shocked to open Old Navy’s site only to find a bunch of cute options that look just like several designer releases I’ve been coveting for months.

Your Guide to Styling Every Type of Lug Sole Boots in the Book

December 13, 2021 at 09:35PM Lug sole boots are without a doubt our favorite shoe trend for winter because they’re functional, warm, and stylish at the same time. They cap off a feminine look with edge and help us channel ‘90s grunge in a rugged silhouette. Plus, there’s truly a shape - long, tall, or somewhere in between - for every taste. If you’re unfamiliar, the lug sole is made of rubber and has grooves at the bottom for added grip, but the indentations also play up the design of the shoe, oftentimes working to accent or contrast the upper. In our opinion, they’re the next best thing to sneakers for going out on a walk in cold temperatures, and with some of our favorite brands churning out iconic versions that are recognizable anywhere, they’re also total must haves. Ahead, we share some…

Browsing the site can often feel overwhelming because there are so many great options, but luckily I did the hard work for you. I stumbled across four bodysuits that I absolutely fell in love with.
