Who What Wear

April 17, 2022 at 06:13AM Welcome to The Great Try-On. With spring officially in full swing, it’s time to ready your wardrobe, and we’re here to provide a little shopping inspiration. We got to try on some of the best spring pieces from some of your favourite brands and documented it all from our at-home dressing rooms so that you can see how they actually look IRL. We hope that our photos and candid reviews will help you shop for spring wardrobe builders that you’ll wear over and over this season and beyond.It’s my job to edit the best shopping items online, but even as someone who spends so much time studying all of the latest drops and coolest new trends that have arrived on the internet, nothing replaces trying things on in person. With so many great spring Reformation items landing on the market,…

April 17, 2022 at 06:12AM There is certainly a time and place for those more high-concept outfits featuring lots of layers and accouterments. On the flip side, pared-down ensembles featuring just a few pieces can also be appealing—especially if you’re looking to keep it easy. We’re going to focus on these outfits today. Yep, below, you’ll find a range of spring outfit ideas that require only two to three pieces (accessories and shoes aside).Remember, a simple outfit doesn’t correlate to “boring.” You can actually have quite the forward vibe even with just two to three items. And that’s what the ensembles coming your way will showcase. Keep scrolling for a range of inspiration, including outfits with jackets if it’s chillier where you live, along with other options. There are also product recommendations if you’re in the mood to do a little shopping.This is about as simple and…

April 17, 2022 at 06:00AM We Brits have long relied on Marks and Spencer. Before online shopping was even a thing, it was there for us for everything from school supplies to underwear and, of course, the all-important coats and boots. There may now be a plethora of places to turn to for your new-season wardrobe, but M&S has remained one of our favourite high-street go-tos, and for good reason. We rely on it for the essentials, but also, in recent years, the brand has stepped up its fashion game and provided us with some seriously stylish additions that boast both quality and good looks. As a team, we’re not embarrassed to say we have a passion for scrolling through the M&S website or popping into our local store on our lunch break to browse the new-in sections. So often, we’ve come away with a real gem—something like the…

April 16, 2022 at 10:35AM Monikh wears the embroidered linen Zara skirt in her shopping picks.There are hundreds of thousands of influencers in the social ether, but there is only a handful who we religiously stalk in order to virtually steal the clothes off their backs. Our primary target is Monikh—the London-based styling and shopping guru who seeks out the coolest buys from every corner of the retail world. From her inspiring tips on rewearing her well-chosen investment items to hunting down the best high-street pieces, her Instagram feed, @monikh, and website are a veritable hotbed of things you’re going to want to purchase immediately (and will never regret). Each month, Monikh will share her new picks exclusively for you.This year is flying by, and we are one step closer to those warmer, coatless days and pretty pink nights. So this month’s round up is…

April 16, 2022 at 08:00AM The skies are blue, and temperatures have even reached double figures. Spring is here, and, my, are we ready for it! As editors, it’s our job to be one step ahead of not only the trends but also the current sartorial climate. In the business of making sure you’re kept firmly in the know of all things fashion, our minds are always fixated on the future and, indeed, what we’ll be wearing, be it in one month, two months, or six months.There are, however, some exceptions to this rule. One of them was the shocking week of glorious weather we had recently, during which we just so happened to have our latest street style shoot planned. We intended to head out to the streets of central London to see what you—yes, you—were wearing now that the first signs of spring had…

April 16, 2022 at 08:00AM Jennifer Lopez is better known for wearing platforms than flats, but even she can’t resist the power of a practical shoe trend. Photographed with Ben Affleck in Los Angeles this weekend, J.Lo wore black Chanel loafers, a Wolford Colorado bodysuit layered under a Dolce & Gabbana jumpsuit, a Bottega Veneta bag and Prada sunglasses. Phew—that’s a whole lot of designer names all in one outfit. Although Lopez’s shoes are by Chanel, loafers are an extremely easy trend that you can buy at a range of price points. There’s no need to shell out tonnes of money to try the look. And yes, they’re very much on-trend right now. Below, I rounded up my favourite J.Lo-inspired loafers to fit different budgets. On Jennifer Lopez: Wolford Colorado bodysuit (£173); Dolce & Gabbana jumpsuit; Bottega Veneta bag; Chanel loafers; Prada sunglassesI like the little block heel on this…

April 16, 2022 at 08:00AM After months of dreary weather and dark mornings, it’s natural to be excited about spring’s arrival. However, as much as we look forward to the start of the new season, adjusting your wardrobe to accommodate the unpredictable forecasts in March and April can be tricky. There’s more to assembling your spring outfits than you might think. There’s a whole host of new trends to consider, and it’s important to get the balance of being warm but not swamped under thick layers just right.So I am here to help you streamline this process by presenting you with the pieces my knowledgeable colleagues and I consider to be the most versatile and classic spring fashion items you can own. Essentials, go-tos, wardrobe fail-safes—whatever you want to call them, these 12 timeless spring pieces will be the unshakable foundations of any…

April 16, 2022 at 08:00AM Six years ago, my family experienced a huge scare when my then 65-year-old mom was rushed to the ER in order to receive an emergency cardioversion—aka a medical paddle used to restart her heart. The day before the trip to the emergency room, we’d been travelling, and my mom (who has since discovered she has an extreme sensitivity to sugar) had a pumpkin spice latte and an almond-filled French pastry for breakfast and then later on after dinner a small vanilla ice cream cone. As she explains, it was enough sugar (at least for her) to send her heart into atrial fibrillation, or an uneven heart rhythm.“As scary as the experience was, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise,” she tells me. “I banished heavy sugar doses from my diet and noticed that my skin started…

April 16, 2022 at 08:00AM It’s natural, as we edge closer to the warmer months, that our minds gravitate towards dresses. Although they’re a year-round staple in the wardrobes of many, there’s nothing quite as satisfying as slipping into your favourite dress without the need for tights or a chunky jumper thrown over the top once the warm weather settles in. Having been treated to a few bright days over the last fortnight, I have found myself daydreaming about the dresses I’ll wear this year, be it for weddings or to elevate my daily wares.Whenever I fancy treating myself to something new or require a fresh dose of fashion inspiration, there is a selection of women I turn to, and the fact they’re all French or reside in France is no coincidence. If you’re familiar with my byline (for better or worse, my name is pretty…

April 16, 2022 at 08:00AM I might not have much in common with Katie Holmes, but we are the same height (5'9"), so I have a feeling she could relate to my never-ending quest to find flats that are actually cute. But tall girls are far from the only people who want the practicality of flats without sacrificing style. French girls such as Leia Sfez and Tamara Mory, for instance, love Chanel’s iconic slingback flats, but they can be considerably out of reach for the average shopper. That’s why I was excited to see Holmes wearing slingbacks that have the same vibe. Photographed in New York City, Holmes wore Kate Spade New York Veronica Slingback Flats (£190), which come in four different colours. Holmes paired her white versions with a beautiful butterfly-bedecked dress, also by Kate Spade New York. As we’ve already identified, flat slingback shoes are a footwear favourite amongst French women and…
