December 06, 2021 at 11:28AM Niche though it may sound, but Monki’s ‘squiggle’ print (technical term there) has been a real success story for the brand over the last 12 months. Firstly there was the squiggle print trousers, which both myself and Editor in Chief Hannah snapped-up—they promptly sold out and continued to do so through multiple restocks. Thus followed everything from squiggle print dresses to bikinis and, like the original style, none of them remained on shelves for long. Well, we are happy to announce that Monki has just dropped what we consider to be the best iteration of the squiggle print to date and, of course, it comes in coat form.With a very AW21 fuzzy texture, loose, long-line fit and dramatic monochrome colourway, this may just win the prize for this year's coolest statement-making high-street coat. We’ve already spotted the style on the likes of Lindsey Isla…

December 06, 2021 at 08:00AM When it comes to this time of the year, it’s totally normal for skin to seem seriously dull. In fact, beyond looking a little lacklustre, it could possibly be feeling tight, dry and sore. If there’s one thing that the beauty world is certain of, it’s that cold weather is rarely good news for your complexion. And don’t I know it. Despite the fact the summer months had my skin radiating an out-of-this-world glow, the start of winter had me sporting a drab, lacklustre and seriously distressed face.At the start of the season, as I emptied out the contents of my makeup bag in the search for any kind of illuminating product to pour over my face/bathe in, I couldn’t help but wonder if my skin would ever get its glow back. Sure, I could slather my cheekbones…

December 06, 2021 at 08:00AM There’s an undeniable allure about the beauty and style choices of French women, from their chic trademark fringes to their classic wardrobe basics. For me, though, there’s one specific area that I feel they’ve consistently excelled in more than most: skincare. Yes, French girls have seriously amazing skin, and it's down to the array of hard-working skincare brands that they have access to.Over the years, I’ve lost count of the number of industry-approved makeup removers and celebrity-beloved face oils that have been exported from France. Trust me—if it’s cult skincare products that you’re looking for, then French pharmacy brands are the best place to start. Luckily, many of these historic brands are now available on British soil, which means that French-girl glow has never been more achievable.Ahead, keep scrolling for the 10 skincare brands that French girls genuinely swear by for amazing skin (and to shop the best sellers from…

December 06, 2021 at 08:00AM As soon as the winter weather begins to set in, I immediately find myself questioning how to make each of my outfits as cosy as possible. Of course, the addition of a puffer jacket or a beanie hat can be helpful, and a cashmere scarf doesn’t go unappreciated, but on the footwear front, there always seems to be a lack of shoes that provide that warm, fuzzy feeling.However, in recent months, just about every major It girl has managed to find a solution to fill the cosy-shaped hole in my footwear rotation. Enter Ugg boots.Yes, the divisive shoes of the early aughts are back. And while there has been much debate about whether Ugg boots are in fact shoes—much like the debate that questions whether leggings can justifiably be worn as trousers—it is evident that in 2021, anything goes.Although some might think Uggs are…

December 06, 2021 at 08:00AM Out of all the fashion staples in our wardrobe, the coat is probably the item that worked the hardest last year, and something tells us the same will be said for winter 2021. As we enter November, while we are no longer in lockdown, the humble coat will inevitably remain an essential part of our style arsenal, whether we're jumping at the opportunity to go “out out,” chilling at home or trekking into the office for the first time. Luckily, the new season is set to usher in a host of outwear trends that combine both form and function.The elevated puffer is, of course, sticking around and is surely one of the warmest things you can throw on for a chilly November morning, but this year, it comes with more streamlined quilting, which is perfect for layering. There’s also plenty of colour via the saturated shades that hit the runways at Prada and Bottega Veneta. From…
