December 13, 2021 at 06:00AM Party season is well and truly upon us, and whether you’re keeping your plans low key or have a diary full of plans, we’re all in need of a little festive cheer. One thing I’m certainly looking forward to is all the party makeup looks I’ve been eager to try out from glittery eyeshadows to glowing makeup and I’ve really been brushing up on my makeup skills in anticipation. The great thing is that the party makeup looks I’ve found are easy to create and can transform the most simple outfit into a WOW look. If you’re ready to be inundated with 7 party makeup looks that are absolutely worth copying, keep scrolling. I’ve even included my top products and tips so you can recreate the looks yourself.For me, party season makeup isn’t complete without a sparkly pop of colour on the eyes and thankfully we’re always spoilt…

December 13, 2021 at 05:58AM It can be all too easy when temperatures drop to a certain (read: icy) level to lean on the same outfits you have for the past few years, huddling up in grey, navy and black knitwear and the same black ankle boots. While you can’t beat a classic, if you’re looking for some new winter combinations, the likes of Grece Ghanem, Lucy Williams and more have been wearing a number of practical yet interesting looks you too will be able to wear on repeat until spring.Many of these key items you’ll already own, such as roll-necks and classic blazers, but you can make your winter wardrobe more 2021 with cream boots, teddy coats and leather trousers. Just because you have to make sensible choices doesn’t mean you have to spend the next three months in boring and unadventurous outfits. Keep scrolling to see…

December 12, 2021 at 06:30AM Having a hairdresser for a mum has meant that I’ve done just about everything you can think of to my hair. I’ve been platinum blonde, mahogany brown and everything in-between. I’ve framed my face with feathering and had thick fringes cut in. I’ve had hair down to my waist and chopped to my chin. It’s fair to say I was pretty fearless with my hair. That is until I got older.I don’t know why, but for some reason, I’ve defaulted to long-length hair in a creamy hue with lived-in roots. But after witnessing some impressive hair transformations on Instagram of late, I’m finally going to give my ‘do a refresh. And the look I’m toying with is a blunt bob.The blunt bob has undergone a bit of a resurgence as of late. A far cry from the dreaded bowl cut, instead, influencers…

December 12, 2021 at 06:30AM It’s really no secret that I am terrible at doing makeup. Considering I spend most of my days learning tips and tricks from the best makeup artists in the business and getting the lowdown on the new formulas and products set to make application easier, it’s pretty shocking how subpar my makeup skills are.And while, over the years, I have become confident in my ability to apply a base, place my blusher and contour the hell out of my face, the one area I still need serious help with is my eyes. As every makeup artist loves to remind me, my eyes turn downwards and are slightly hooded, thus making following any sort of one-rule-fits-all eye-makeup tutorials incredibly difficult. And it is at this time of the year (i.e., party season) when a smoky-eye look reigns supreme that I find myself getting most frustrated. I…

December 12, 2021 at 06:05AM Given the recent chill and stormy weather, now feels as good a time as any to talk coats. Yes, it’s a topic we’ve been covering for the past couple of months already, but as we finally find ourselves fully immersed in winter, it’s now that the biggest coat trends have truly become known. These are the coats that feel the freshest and are yet to be overdone, making them the ideal addition to your outerwear line-up should you be looking to fill a gap or simply want to start 2022’s first cold weeks on a sartorial high. As style people, we’re always looking to our favourite brands and fashion friends on Instagram to inform what’s new and what’s next. And when it comes to coats, we’ve clocked six trends that will be the most important for the rest of the season.…

December 12, 2021 at 06:00AM When it comes to luxury fashion, Gucci has always been at the top. Alongside the other stalwarts of the fashion industry—Chanel, Dior, Saint Laurent, Louis Vuitton, et al.—the Italian fashion house has remained popular. Founded in 1921, this 100-year-old brand is arguably the biggest it’s ever been. True, Tom Ford’s tenure shouldn’t be discounted (he gave the brand real sass during the ‘90s), but since Alessandro Michele took over the helm of creative director in 2015, Gucci has completely transformed.Michele was only appointed head honcho about half a decade ago, but in the past six years, thanks to the creative director, the brand has become the most popular and most profitable in the Kering family, which also owns Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent and Balenciaga. There’s no denying the effect of the new aesthetic Michele’s brought to the label. According to global fashion search platform Lyst, Gucci is…

December 12, 2021 at 06:00AM Marks and Spencer is one of those high-street stores that is so good at delivering wardrobe heroes that look 10 times their actual price, whether it’s winter boots, midi dresses or classic knits. This season, however, it was a particular jacket that piqued my interest. Coming in a wool-mix fabric with a wintry plaid print and stylish fringing, this jacket had me hooked from the moment I saw it. I knew that I had to wear it for our winter-coats shoot.It’s not always a given that high-street coats will look as good IRL, but I’m happy to report that this jacket passed the test with flying colours. The fit is quite boxy, so I decided to cinch with a black belt. However, thanks to its light fabric, I think it would also look fab worn loose and layered under a roomier coat. For this reason, I would also…
