Who What Wear

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM Marks and Spencer is a British institution that is loved up and down the country for delivering quality staples, particularly underwear, pyjamas and cashmere jumpers. It creates classic pieces that appeal to all ages, and although the design has universal appeal, it is never particularly out-there or following street style trends. That’s why our editors were all surprised when we found a pair of boots that look straight from Copenhagen Fashion Week. Chunky, rubber-sole boots have been trending thanks to designers like Ganni and Bottega Veneta, and M&S has done its own iteration of the chunky knee-highs for £50.So I had to try a pair to see if they live up to the product image on the website. When I put them on, my partner said, “Why are you wearing wellies inside?” This is certainly a reaction you will get to these boots, as…

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM While trending haircuts come and go and certain hair colours feel more seasonal than others, there’s a certain hairstyle that people search for all year round: the best one for thin hair.

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM Is there anything more classic than a humble pair of jeans? Personally, I’d say no. The timeless item finds a home in just about everyone’s wardrobe, in every corner of the globe, regardless of age or gender.Of course, when an item is as versatile as a pair of jeans, there are about a thousand different ways you can style them, dressing them up or down depending on the event or occasion. Today, however, I’m here to talk about the way you style jeans with shoes.I don’t know about you, but when it comes to styling inspiration, I always like to look to street style imagery, and luckily, in recent times, showgoers have offered up a plethora of outfit ideas. Each season, the fashion set takes to the streets in jeans of every shade and silhouette—be it indigo straight-leg pairs…

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM Here at Who What Wear, we always like to keep a keen eye on what celebrities are wearing. And while it can be all fun and games to cover red carpet appearances complete with couture ball gowns and six-figure jewels, it’s even more of a thrill to discover celebrities wearing items you can actually attain. Enter Gin From the Pampa, the affordable on-the-rise jewellery brand that has garnered quite the It-girl endorsement of late. Since its launch in January 2020, the label has been spotted on the likes of Kendall Jenner, Elsa Hosk, Ashley Graham and Gabrielle Union. These incredibly chic individuals are regularly seen in elaborate bespoke wares, but you’ll be pleased to know the designs at Gin From the Pampa often come in at under £100.Expertly capturing the essence of summer, Gin From the Pampa is known for its…

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM There’s no doubt that my boots are getting plenty of action these days now that the cooler weather is upon us.

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM The Duchess of Cambridge stepped out in rainy Wolverhampton today for a series of engagements and proved, yet again, that denim is not the only way to pull together an easy, chic outfit. Wearing a look that was very reminiscent of a navy ensemble she chose on a royal tour last year (more on those looks below) she assembled a fitted coat over a polka-dot, contrast-collar blouse and with a trouser style that is fast becoming her signature: tailored flares.On Kate Middleton: Tory Burch Silk Satin Polka Dot Blouse; Jigsaw trousers. In a couple of styling moves that are now recognisably very HRH, Kate chose to go tonal (a move that makes any outfit simpler), to add in some classic pearl earrings and to ensure that her wide-leg trousers were (probably) tailored just so, in order to sit neatly above her…

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM I have to admit I don’t look to celebrities all that often for style guidance. Despite the fact that I love poring over red carpet pictures and I’ll be endlessly enthralled and delighted by what avant-garde A-listers choose to wear for a casual date night (Rihanna, I'm talking about you), in general, I just don't connect with the über-luxury and perfectly styled finish you’ll get from most famous people in the spotlight. However, one actress who always piques my interest is Dakota Johnson. She has a very laid-back approach to dressing for her public appearances, and while she can dial up the va-va-voom for events such as the Venice Film Festival, she’s equally adept at flinging on a cool jacket, a pair of jeans and flat boots—the kind of outfit one could actually re-create quite easily. In the same vein as, say, Kate Moss…

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM Whatever your thoughts on anti-ageing as a term, there’s no denying that moisturisers, which are created to specifically tackle things like fine lines, pigmentation and dryness, can be incredibly expensive due to their potent ingredients and advanced formulations. And while I truly believe that ageing is a privilege we should fully embrace—wrinkles and all—it doesn’t mean that taking good care of our skin as we grow older should cost a small fortune. This is why I’ve made it my mission to seek out anti-ageing products that genuinely work without breaking the bank. I’ve already discovered some brilliant serums and eye creams that rival counterparts with three-figure price tags, but today we’re here to talk about anti-ageing moisturisers—and cheap ones at that.Ahead, keep scrolling to shop seven of the best affordable anti-ageing moisturisers that genuinely hold their own against some of my luxurious favourites.It’s all about ingredients when choosing an efficacious anti-ageing moisturiser,…

November 13, 2021 at 08:00AM Leggings seem to yo-yo in and out of favour within fashion circles, but in 2021, the chicest of dressers are revisiting black leggings. Tight-fitting trousers are rapidly regaining popularity, as many influencers and buyers are wearing skinny jeans and slim-fitting leggings—and not just with slippers for waist-up outfits for Zoom calls. The key to making them feel fresh is to play with proportions and contrast the tightness of the legs with oversized knitwear, huge boots and smart pieces you wouldn’t typically expect to pair well with leggings. Think of black leggings as your base layer. Then, add on either a pair of chunky tread-sole or hiking boots or elegant knee-high leather boots and pile on the expensive-looking knitwear, from zip-front jumpers to camel crew-necks. The key to making leggings look put-together in 2021 is to pay attention to the details. Finish off…
