Who What Wear

November 04, 2021 at 06:00AM Known for its achingly cool and contemporary spin on minimalism, Arket has been a fashion-editor go-to ever since it arrived at our shores in 2017. It came as a surprise to no one, then, when it announced it was launching its first jewellery capsule last year, and naturally, the pieces sold out within a matter of weeks. Well, we’re happy to report that the highly anticipated second drop arrived this week, and obviously, it’s looking better than ever.Comprised of a concise 13-piece edit, the jewellery collection stays within the same vein of Arket’s main-line fashion collections: classic, versatile and polished in an understated way. We’re talking about chunky chain necklaces, hoop earrings and elegant armlets in both gold and silver finishes. Oh, and a cheeky pop of blue. With Christmas around the corner, we have a feeling that these would be the ideal gifts…

November 03, 2021 at 05:15AM Celebrities rewearing their outfits? We love to see it. But what we appreciate even more is when a celeb pays homage to an outfit they originally wore decades earlier. Granted, this doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it’s the stuff of fashion gold. And today, we have one such nugget to share with you. Gwyneth Paltrow wears a red velvet suit designed by Alessandro Michele for Gucci to the brand’s 2021 Love Parade fashion show. Gwyneth Paltrow’s style influence has spanned over 30 years—which undoubtedly means she has one of the best wardrobes in the business. It’s so good that even she can’t help but be inspired by it from time to time. Just last night, Gwynnie stepped out in a chic ruby-red velvet suit that we were into from the get-go. Then it dawned on us—we’d seen her in something very similar before… a cool…

November 03, 2021 at 08:29AM Leave it to Katie Holmes—the actress that singlehandedly blew up the internet when she wore a cashmere-cardigan–and-bralette duo from Khaite with vintage denim back in 2019—to debut the finest knit-and-jeans combo of the year thus far. On Monday, Holmes was spotted in New York City wearing what can only be described as my ideal fall look: a white T-shirt, Western boots, a cashmere cardigan, and a pair of high-rise jeans that fit just right. Like so many of the Dawson’s Creek alum’s outfits, the look was casual and elevated at the same time, which, I can tell you from experience, is easier said than done. The real winners from Holmes’s outfit are her jeans (which are mid-wash and straight-legged) and her cardigan (a pink-and-gray knit by Kate Spade New York that is somehow still in stock). Called the Colorblock Cashmere Gallery Cardigan, the two-tone sweater costs $328 and comes in a…

November 03, 2021 at 08:00AM Personal style can be mastered at any age—there is no magic number or milestone birthday that can claim to be the pivotal point. Some lucky fashion lovers manage to find their signature look early on and hold onto it throughout their lives, adjusting and updating it ever so slightly to suit the changing times and trends. For others, understanding the outfits and clothes you feel most comfortable in can be a more arduous and experimental process.Whichever camp you reside in, there’s no denying that as you get older, your tastes and wardrobe needs change. For example, aged 33, I now realise that all of the cheaper, trend-ticking items I bought on the high street in my 20s haven’t stood up, so I’m endeavouring to buy less and buy better. My mum, who is in her 70s, is still…

November 03, 2021 at 08:00AM Angelina Jolie doesn’t need to tell us that she doesn’t care about fashion trends for us to know that she probably doesn’t care about them. The writing is on the wall. Every time she steps out of the house, she wears some combination of classic pieces, many of which she’s worn before. Although much of what Jolie wears is designer, the pieces are so simple and classic that it’s fairly easy to copy her outfits.As far as Jolie’s aesthetic goes, you’ve probably noticed that she wears a lot of neutrals, loose yet tailored silhouettes, and timeless accessories. If you looked at her outfits 30 years from now, you probably wouldn’t even be able to name the decade in which she wore them. They’re that timeless. Even if your aesthetic isn’t quite as classic as Jolie’s, we’re firm believers that anyone can greatly…

November 03, 2021 at 08:00AM While social media can be a hub for all things fashion and beauty, skincare is a topic that can get a little tricky, especially when certain products start to trend. I’d be lying if I said I haven’t been guilty of succumbing to a viral product only to be disappointed when it didn’t exactly work for my skin. While following trends for clothes and makeup can be an easier feat, with skincare, it’s crucial to be cautious because what works for others may not work for you, and some products may seem like they’re working but can actually cause damage and irritation later on. It’s important to pay close attention to the ingredients before purchasing a product and to consult an expert if possible, especially if you’re facing specific skin concerns. Since I’ve been seeing quite a few products circulate around social media that have…

November 03, 2021 at 08:00AM Kate Middleton is no stranger to skinny jeans outfits. In fact, they seem to be her casual attire of choice—likely because they look polished and classic, which describes her aesthetic in a nutshell. She’s particularly fond of black skinny jeans, and those are what she wore today in Scotland during the United Nations Climate Change Conference.In addition to her black skinny jeans, Middleton wore a black turtleneck, combat boots, and one of 2021’s most casual winter trends: a quilted vest. Hers is an oversized green vest from Ganni, a brand that has excelled at making quilted nylon outerwear cool. Quilted nylon vests may be trendy this season, but they’re also quite functional. They’re perfect for the “cold but not too cold” days we’re currently getting, and they’ll serve as a great layering piece on colder days when you also need a coat. If…

November 03, 2021 at 08:00AM It’s safe to say that this year, we’ve fallen back in love with getting our nails done. Having been denied the salon experience for so long, I—and, judging by the difficulty I had getting an appointment with my manicurist, so many of you—have been working hard to make up for lost time. When I did finally get my turn in the salon chair last week, I was curious to find out which colours were proving popular right now, to which my manicurist responded, “Everything autumnal—in here, summer’s over.”That’s right—while our wardrobes may still be clinging to the last few weeks of warm(ish) weather, as far as our nails go, our approach and preferences are absolutely geared towards autumn. I’m no exception, either, for the colour I chose was a rich, deep shade of burgundy, which I thought would help bridge…
