Who What Wear

November 23, 2021 at 06:02AM There are areas of our bodies that we would all like a bit of extra control on, whether it’s a bit of lift in the bust or butt or a little added support in our hips and thigh area. There’s certainly nothing wrong, either, with turning to a pair of Spanx or shaping shorts when you’re in need of a little oomph—celebs do it all the time, especially when it comes to walking the red carpet.Luckily, the market is chock-full of great shapewear that promises to smooth out any lumps or bumps where you want to. Today, we’re honing in on all the best tummy-control shapewear that we think is 100% worth the investment. These are pieces you can wear whenever you feel the need to trim your tummy, shape your waistline and support your back. Ready to see our finds? Read on to…

November 23, 2021 at 06:00AM Founded by Elin Kling and Karl Lindman in 2014, Totême was built around the concept of a modern uniform. Over the last seven years, the brand has won over the fashion crowd with its uniquely Scandi twist on wardrobe staples, from immaculate tailoring to classic knits. Totême’s coat offering, however, has proven to be a particular success in recent years, with celebs (hello, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley), influencers and editors alike investing in its luxurious signature wrap designs.Rosie HW was particularly a fan of the brand’s quilted wrap coat back in winter 2020, and thankfully, the style has returned for another season, as have the classic camel-coloured iterations. There are also a few new outwear pieces to fall in love with, such as the leather-trim shearling jacket as seen on Lucy Williams and the toggle-fasten cashmere coat. But the beauty of the brand is that all of its designs are sure to stand the test of time and…

November 23, 2021 at 06:00AM I have a confession. I’ve written a lot of day-to-night makeup articles in my time. You’ll see them crop up around this time of year when Christmas parties and New Year’s Eve are on everybody’s mind. While I do sometimes need a soft-to-sultry eye shadow or a vibe-changing blush to liven up my face, in real life, I tend to just recommend adding a showstopping lip. It instantly brings a new dimension to your daytime look and is the easiest thing to have in your bag without the need for extra tools. Let’s be honest—as great as a blended-out smoky shadow is, fitting my palette and two to three brushes in my bag is less appealing than one simple lip product.A lip stain or liquid lipstick are my absolute go-tos, and as I have lips that are sensitive to anything too…

November 23, 2021 at 06:00AM It’s a universally known fact amongst women that finding the perfect tights is darn near impossible. All those ladders and saggy crotches of our youth have left us scarred, tarnishing all future winter outfit choices and party seasons to come. Let alone shapewear— have you ever tried squeezing on a pair of too-small ‘shorts’ before an event and felt good about yourself? No, us neither. That was, until Heist came along. Seriously, we’re not even being dramatic— all the editors in our office agree that this one brand has saved the whole idea of hosiery and so-called shapewear for us. In fact, if you’re a regular WWWUK reader you’ll probably already be familiar with the brand, mainly because we don’t stop banging on about them. It started with the perfect pair of tights (The Thirty is our ultimate go-to), then…

November 23, 2021 at 05:02AM I’m a huge fan of ‘70s fashion—the era created a host of trends that still stand up today, whether you realise they’re from that time or not. Think of our current obsession with bright over-the-knee boots, folk-inspired printed dresses, velvet and corduroy, boho blouses, midi skirts and so on. While the '70s sweep over the runways every couple of seasons, there’s always a hint of it on the streets if you look closely.Think of the iconic designer names that were indelibly marked into history during this decade, like Yves Saint Laurent, Karl Lagerfeld and Diane von Furstenberg. Also, during this period, mass-market, trend-driven fashion was more readily available. Barbara Hulanicki’s Biba kick-started the idea in London a decade earlier, alongside boutiques such as Bus Stop, and cool, connected girls were able to switch up their looks more readily, which likely led…

November 22, 2021 at 04:03PM The Who What Wear take on autumn/winter 2021’s top fashion trends has been curated just like any other season: it is, has been and always will be entirely grounded in what you’re going to want to wear. You can consider this is your ultimate edit and a checklist to keep referencing, rather than a vast, overwhelming, never-ending stream of runway pictures and examples of unrealistic looks that won’t/don’t translate into the majority of wardrobes up and down the country. It’s a gargantuan task, but someone’s got to do it, and who better than a team of editors known for their ability to not only decode trends but predict them too?Traditionally, the darker, colder months are a time for cocooning, but I think we can agree that we’ve all had our fill of that. The short days and chilly temperatures provide us with an opportunity to…

November 22, 2021 at 06:10PM Black Friday can be an assault on your email inbox, with every brand you’ve ever purchased from sending alert after alert about offers and promotions. It’s enough to make you want a full-blown digital detox. So, we’re arming you with essential tips to help you find the best clothing and fashion deals and avoid falling into any tempting clothing sale traps. When it comes to shopping for clothes, shoes and accessories during Black Friday, you want to find classic pieces that have been slightly out of reach previously, or hard-working basics that are missing from your wardrobe (such as a new winter coat or ankle boots). I’d advise you only buy something that was already on your shopping list before it was on sale, check sizes carefully and don’t be tempted to buy something just because it’s in the sale. It’s…

November 22, 2021 at 08:00AM I’m lucky enough in my job to have access to celebrity facialists, top beauty brands and the best experts in the industry, but I’ve noticed more and more that it’s A-listers themselves who are becoming all the more influential when it comes to serving up legitimately good beauty advice. Of course, celebrities like Beyoncé and Jennifer Aniston are surrounded by the beauty industry’s cream of the crop on a daily basis—from makeup artists to hairstylists—so it’s really no surprise that they’ve picked up some expert beauty tips along the way. There’s one celebrity in particular, however, whose skincare knowledge I trust more than most: Victoria Beckham.With her very own beauty line under her belt and a dedicated beauty reel of product recommendations and top tips on her Instagram, Beckham’s love of all things beauty is obvious. Her passion for products combined with how open she has…

November 22, 2021 at 08:00AM Dark mornings and colder temperatures: it’s what we all know is in store by the time November rolls around. But one thing that isn’t talked about enough is the trends that begin to land when winter kicks into gear.Just like every other season, winter sees an influx of new looks to try—and they’re not all necessarily puffer coats and woollen scarves (though such essential items shouldn’t be overlooked). Winter trends can be just as playful as that of their summer counterparts, and I have the proof.My job is to keep up-to-speed on all-things fashion, and that includes what influencers are wearing. And whilst dutifully carrying out my latest Instagram scroll, I noticed countless influencers wearing winter trends to very cool avail.It turns out this year’s colour palette isn’t so black and white—in fact, there’s a bold coat trend that’ll…
