Sorry, Skinny Jeans—This Denim Trend Is Going to Be Huge

November 03, 2021 at 08:00AM Before we dive in, let’s just remember that in reality, skinny jeans could basically be considered a classic at this point. Sure, people may have varying views on the cut, but they’re more or less timeless. That said, a style on the other end of the denim spectrum continues to increase in popularity—and definitely will thrive come spring. Yep, we’re talking about those loose, straight-leg jeans. More specifically, the silhouettes that are especially relaxed.In fact, since making an appearance again last year, loose-fitting jeans are still very much a present part of the autumn/winter 2021 line-up. Well today, we thought we’d dive in a bit deeper with some visual inspiration on how fashion people are wearing loose-fitting jeans because it’s continuing well into 2022, we think. With that in mind, keep scrolling for a range of outfit ideas featuring…

The Over-50 Fashion Icons With the Freshest Style

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…

Angelina Jolie Constantly Rotates These 7 Classic Items

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…

Here’s What a Dermatologist Really Thinks About These 6 Viral Skincare Products

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…

Without a Doubt, These 13 Autumn Nail Colours Always Look Classy

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…

Kate Middleton Wore One of Winter’s Most Casual Trends With Skinny Jeans

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…

The Coat Trends We Predict Everyone Will Be Wearing This Winter

November 03, 2021 at 07:00AM Out of all the fashion staples in our wardrobe, the coat is probably the item that worked the hardest last year, and something tells us the same will be said for winter 2021. As we enter November, while we are no longer in lockdown, the humble coat will inevitably remain an essential part of our style arsenal, whether we're jumping at the opportunity to go “out out,” chilling at home or trekking into the office for the first time. Luckily, the new season is set to usher in a host of outwear trends that combine both form and function.The elevated puffer is, of course, sticking around and is surely one of the warmest things you can throw on for a chilly November morning, but this year, it comes with more streamlined quilting, which is perfect for layering. There’s also plenty of colour via the saturated shades that hit the runways at Prada and Bottega Veneta. From…

Of All the Beauty Products That Come My Way, These Are Always the Most Special

November 03, 2021 at 06:30AM As a beauty editor, I sometimes have a difficult time deciding which products to try out and keep for myself. While the fact that all the latest beauty launches land on my desk every day is a total dream, sadly, one face can only try so many products. Personally, I find these decisions particularly hard when it comes to makeup. With skincare, ingredient lists tend to tell me whether or not my skin will like a product. But with makeup, the products I keep tend to be ones that appeal to my inner magpie.I like my makeup products to look just as beautiful on my dressing table as they do on my face. I also want them to feel luxurious and, most importantly, possess a certain je ne sais quois that makes applying them feel like a special…
