Who What Wear

April 09, 2022 at 08:00AM Although it’s completely true that there’s nothing we love more than a full-blown Jennifer Lopez look (we’re talking about her iconic Versace jungle dress and, more recently, her bridal minidress by Giambattista Valli), it would be wrong for us to discount the Hustlers star’s more laid-back outfits. After all, whether it be a sundress or joggers, J.Lo really can make anything look good. Her latest one is no exception. While out and about in L.A., Lopez was spotted wearing the easygoing denim look that French girls have been donning for decades. Specifically, she combined a basic white T-shirt with high-rise, wide-leg jeans à la Jane Birkin back in the 1970s. Keeping with the theme, she added a pair of sky-high platform heels, oversized sunglasses and large gold hoops. Apart from the absence of a woven basket bag (Lopez chose to instead accessorise with Coach’s logo-covered Beat shoulder bag), she…

April 09, 2022 at 08:00AM When Kate Middleton wears jeans, they’re usually skinny. When she wears dresses, they’re midi, and when she wears trousers, they’re usually wide-leg. Such was the case today when she and Prince William visited volunteers at the Ukrainian Cultural Centre in London. Middleton showed her support for Ukraine by wearing a blue-and-yellow pin on a blue sweater. She also wore block-heel pumps and a pair of wide-leg trousers that can best be described as puddle pants. Puddle pants (and jeans) are basically loose and so long that they pool around the ankles. So in this case, save yourself a trip to the tailor and keep the ultra-long length intact—just don’t step out on a rainy day…Middleton’s pants are by British brand Jigsaw (did you know she once worked for them?), but plenty of others are getting in on the trend, and there are options at every price point.…

April 09, 2022 at 08:00AM Looking at celebrities basking in the sunshine on their recent slew of exotic holidays has reminded me of a couple of things: 1) that I need to replenish my supply of dental floss when I’m next at Tesco, and 2) that it’s good to get out of your leggings and knitwear once in a while and embrace something… skimpy. And what could be skimpier than a barely there string bikini?That’s right; stylish stars have been casting aside their Baywatch-esque high-leg cossies in favour of teeny triangle bikinis—the sort that dominated every beach, poolside and popular music video in the ‘90s. And you know what? I might join them.A few years ago, I found my swimwear comfort zone in retro, high-waist bikinis—the sort that cover my belly button and provide me with the added support across my hips that I…

April 09, 2022 at 07:36AM It’s official: Bennifer 2.0 appears to be here to stay because https://www.whowhatwear.co.uk/jennifer-lopez-sweatpants-outfit and Ben Affleck just got engaged! In the marketing move of the century, J.Lo is making fans sign up for her website in order to see a new video of her gazing at a massive light-green ring—a shade that matches the iconic dress she wore to the 2003 Oscars while hand-in-hand with Ben (yes, I included that image below). J.Lo’s rep also confirmed the news to People. The couple was previously engaged back in 2002 before calling it off. “I have a really exciting and special story to share,” Lopez posted on Instagram before the big reveal. “So if you’re not part of my inner circle, you have to go to OnTheJLo.com to hear this one. I don’t know if you guys know what that is, but it is my inner circle where…

April 09, 2022 at 07:00AM Wedding season is almost upon us. Although, after so many years of postponements, wedding season for 2022 is basically 12 months long— right? Reportedly this year is going to play host to 25% more weddings than usual, and I for one (being in my early 30s) am starting to feel the effects with mounting invites.Of course, weddings are wonderful things and I can’t wait to attend them all and celebrate my friends and family— the one worrying thing I’m already starting to consider is what to wear to so many events. With everyone’s diaries becoming so crowded there’s not only the usual summer weddings to think about but also winter occasions too. Not to mention the hen dos, pre-wedding dinners and post-wedding day parties.Luckily rental is such an easy, sustainable option these days and I’ll definitely be turning…

April 09, 2022 at 06:40AM When I was a toddler, I screamed every time my mum would turn my pram in the direction of our local M&S. In hindsight, I now understand that this is because she spent inordinate amounts of time browsing the rails while I became increasingly restless. But my, how times have changed, and I totally get how my mum could quite happily spend what felt like an eternity in M&S, mainly because that’s something I like to do now that I’m a grown-up (gulp). Honestly, I can come up with just about any excuse to hit up Marks & Spencer: “I need new bras,” or, “I’m all out of milk,” or, “I’ve reached the end of the wick in my last Apothecary candle.” Truly, there’s no place I’d rather spend an hour or two working my way through fashion…

April 09, 2022 at 06:13AM Since moving out of London, I’ve become entirely dependent on Instagram to see what women in the world’s coolest fashion capital are wearing right now. I didn’t realise quite how important my organic street style–spotting opportunities were when our work lives were normal and I was spending a great portion of my week trekking around town for meetings, events and press appointments. Just by some sort of magical, natural osmosis, I was absorbing the style beat of the city and intuitively gaining insight into what women were wearing in real time. It has always fed into my editorial work, and since moving it has made it infinitely harder to be truly in touch with genuine trends rather than social media–led frenzies.Fortunately for me, the medium of IG and London-based women who document the outfits they actually step out of the house in are…

April 09, 2022 at 06:00AM Is anyone else finding it hard to get dressed right now? My heart wants to embrace spring in full force, but the weather has other ideas. One day it’s sunny but freezing, the next it’s grey but positively balmy— and let’s not even go there with the snow and thunderstorms this week. I’m a stylist and even I’m finding it difficult. You might think putting my outfits together would be an effortless task every morning, but there are certain times of the year when it just requires a little more time and effort, and early spring is one of them. The good thing about my line of work is that I always have a few tips and tricks up my sleeve for times like these. My personal style (and the style I usually lean towards with my clients) is very classic and…

April 09, 2022 at 06:00AM When it comes to the world of beauty, 2021 will go down as the year that nails ruled supreme. From colourful tips to cow-print, it would seem that nothing was off the table when it came to nail art and our lust for experimental manicures. And our nail obsession shows no sign of slowing down for the year ahead with top nail technicians already predicting some seriously beautiful nail trends for 2022. But if like me you’re a little more pared-back when it comes to what you put on your nails, then you might be pleased to learn that we’re also going to see a return to classic, one-colour manicures in plenty of covetable new shades. So whether you’re after something nicely natural or more adventurous, there’s a nail polish colour with your name on in 2022. Keep scrolling for all…

April 08, 2022 at 07:01AM Spring is my favourite time of year. Tulips and daffodils are popping up, everyone starts to eat al fresco and we all generally get to leave the house without extra layers. What’s not to love? I also get super excited to try out the new spring/summer 2022 trends from the runways, but I won’t be wearing them all. Instead, I like to stick to a few great staples that will serve me for seasons to come. Enter The Outnet.Iris & Ink S/S 22 suitWith some of my all-time favourite designers, including Ganni, Rejina Pyo and Vince, all under one virtual roof, it’s easy to search for the brands that I love (and actually wear) at The Outnet. And when it comes to spring, the site is a go-to for certain pieces I can integrate into my existing wardrobe. It…
