Who What Wear

November 14, 2021 at 06:30AM If having a glowing, youthful complexion with improved fine lines, reduced discolouration, and a smoother texture is way up there on your priority list, you’ve come to the right place. In case you didn’t know already, there’s a magical skincare ingredient out there that can do all that and then some. Seem too good to be true? According to dermatologists, it’s not. This otherworldly ingredient, otherwise known as glycolic acid, is a chemical exfoliant AHA (alpha-hydroxy acid) that works almost as well as getting a professional facial. “It’s a substance derived from sugar cane and is known for its exfoliating benefits,” explains Marisa Garshick, a board-certified dermatologist. “It helps to get rid of dead skin cells and therefore brightens the skin."  It also works even better when paired with certain other ingredients. "It can work well with niacinamide, which is soothing on the skin and…

November 14, 2021 at 06:06AM To create cute winter outfits; that’s the goal, isn’t it? We all want to navigate the season stylishly, but we think we’re also in agreement when we say that we don’t want to risk getting a cold in the process.

November 14, 2021 at 06:04AM My love of fashion will forever be strong, but after moving home and spending lots of time in my living room, I’ve come to hold interiors in equally high esteem. I’ve become so obsessed with homeware, my Christmas shopping reflects this shift. After becoming more comfortable in my new flat, and getting the more essential purchases out of the way, my mind keeps drifting to how I can make my space feel special and elevated, and my Christmas wish list this year is filled with items that will make me love my home even more in 2022.Just like clothes, homeware can be difficult to buy for someone else, as it is so personal—especially when it comes to bigger and more expensive items. So for this gift guide, I’ve split it into three categories, with gift ideas for maximalists who love colour and…

November 14, 2021 at 06:00AM H&M is often a go-to shop for many due to its wide arrange of items, including basics and trend-driven pieces. In fact, one of my good friends considers the retailer to be one of her staples when she’s looking to add a few fresh items into her wardrobe. On that note, she recently asked me for my thoughts on some of the new H&M items I’m personally loving that she might be into as well.I ended up texting her six key pieces that I think could work well given their versatile and forward nature. Essentially, I think the edit could pair quite nicely with other basics in her closet. Intrigued? Keep scrolling to check out the six items in question. I pulled out a range of other items that could pique your interest as well.A beautiful coat £50.Fantastic everyday boots.Pretty knitted-vest.Tailored waistcoats are very…

November 14, 2021 at 06:00AM As a beauty editor and a person whose love language is gifts (don’t judge), I am so excited each time I get to unbox the latest launches to test and report back on for work. A dream, right? However, this does also means that when Christmas rolls around every year and I see my favourite brands launching limited-edition drops, my heart is constantly leaping out of my chest.Adorned with intricate decorations or cute travel-sized bundles, Christmas gift sets are often the perfect way to replenish a loved one’s beauty stash—or your own. And despite my job, or perhaps because of it, I have a long list of beauty gifts that I’m lusting after this year. From hair to skin and wellness, these are the presents that any beauty lover will want under their tree. A trio that’ll save you from bad brows, whichever way you…

November 14, 2021 at 06:00AM As Chanel’s glossy-haired models hit the S/S 22 runway, the soaring melody of George Michael’s “Freedom! ‘90” blasted out of the speakers, and the densely packed photographers that lined the runway snapped away. With big shoulder pads, glittering tweed and jewellery dripping in the brand’s interlocking-C insignia, it felt as though we had been transported back to one of Chanel’s iconic 1980s runway shows. “I used to love the sound of flashbulbs going off at the shows in the eighties, when the models were on a raised runway,” mused Chanel’s creative director, Virginie Viard, in the show notes. “I wanted to recapture that emotion.” The headline was clear: Nostalgia is big news. Yves Saint Laurent Haute Couture S/S 02The world of luxury fashion is no stranger to vintage style. Historic fashion houses, such as Chanel, YSL and Dior, regularly dive into their own archives,…

November 14, 2021 at 06:00AM Once the role of a fashion editor was all about writing about new trends and what is coming next, however we think that just as much (if not more) focus should be given to classic items. So how do we decide what makes it into our everlasting line up list? These could be from the high street or the most exclusive luxury fashion houses, but all have to fit with some criteria. One, they are exceptional quality. Two, they are timeless and will be a worthwhile addition to any wardrobe. Three, all of our editors agree they are the best of the best.We have written about some truly special investment pieces, such as Chanel pumps, Max Mara coats and Cartier watches worn by royalty, diving into the history of the items, the icons that have worn them and how…

November 14, 2021 at 06:00AM Loafers might not sound like the most exciting footwear choice, however over the past week I have noticed that they are not only the most popular shoe this winter, but they’re becoming a solid red carpet choice. Maybe it’s all that time out of heels, but the likes of Little Simz and Dakota Johnson are swapping stilettos for loafers. When it comes to the style, there are two camps here. Either celebrities are opting for a really chunky track sole, which helps to toughen up dainty or overly pretty looks. I’m also spotting lots of patent pairs with chain detailing across the foot. Of course you can’t talk about loafers without mentioning Gucci, and the likes of Dakota Johnson have been wearing the horsebit loafers in brown leather.Keep scrolling for the celebrity outfits we love below, and shop our…

November 13, 2021 at 08:41AM I don’t know about you, but I spent last night watching the first episode of the new Gossip Girl reboot. Now, we have yet another revival to look forward to because the new Sex and the City show officially began filming in New York City. That’s right: Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte are back in action and wearing some very on-brand outfits for each of their characters. (Sadly, Samantha will not be part of the new spin-off, and her sassy ensembles and witty one-liners will be sorely missed.) Big has just made his first appearance, and it’s intriguing to see what Carrie wears alongside him, a feathered headpiece reminiscent of her wedding day? Hmm.Thanks to paparazzi images, we have the very first look at what the ladies are wearing in the show, which will be called And Just Like That…. Naturally, shoe-obsessed…

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM Thin hair can be difficult to style. Trust me—I know. I’ve tried to make my naturally thin hair look thicker and fuller ever since I was in middle school and my mum let me get my hands on a hot tool. Since then, I’ve cycled through plenty of hairstyles, volumising products, and thickening techniques. Some have worked, but most haven’t. That’s okay. Somewhere along the way, I’ve learned to live and work with my naturally thin hair (sigh), and the style I choose to wear it in has a lot to do with that. For example, I’ve learned a slick-straight style doesn’t do my thin hair any favours, which is why I tend to go with tousled, textured waves instead. So yeah, I had my opinions on what hairstyles work best for my thin, medium-length hair, but I was wondering what experts…
