Who What Wear

October 12, 2021 at 07:00AM Oh, hello, coat weather. I’ve missed you. I have no doubt that in approximately three weeks, I’ll be complaining about your biting winds and dark mornings, but for now, I’ll enjoy the moderate climes that October brings and relish the outerwear pieces that didn’t get any airtime last year. Luckily, this year is set to be a particularly joyful one for coats thanks to the influx of statement styles that designers have sent down the runway. Outerwear lovers, this one’s for you.Of course, I will always have space in my wardrobe for those classic camel coats and practical puffers, but there’s something about Prada’s use of cobalt blue and the artisanal charm of Sea NY’s patchwork that feels fresh, exciting and representative of my renewed enthusiasm for getting dressed up. That’s not to say that these statement coats…

October 12, 2021 at 07:00AM If I know anything about fashion, it’s that jeans will always be the ultimate staple pair of trousers. They’re what you reach for when you think you’ve got nothing else to wear, when you’re going on a night out and when you’re just meeting friends in the park. They are also the one type of trousers I see French women wear on repeat. The thing is les françaisesseem to know exactly how to make jeans look chic. I’ve spent plenty of time looking at how French women do it, and I’ve managed to narrow it down to six key jeans outfit formulas that they always return to. Of course, there’s the classic blazer-and-smart-shoes combo, the oversized white shirt and then the cropped-blouse look inspired by Jane Birkin. But there are a few others that I think you’re missing out on—ones you’ll definitely want to…

October 12, 2021 at 06:30AM I have never been particularly artistic. Creative? Sure. But artistic? Most certainly not. And when I was fobbing off my art homework from school onto anyone in my life who knew how to hold a pencil, I was very much of the mindset that not being artistic wouldn’t really hinder my prospects too much. But fast-forward 25 years, I’m now a beauty editor who is wildly clumsy and messy when it comes to her makeup application.It’s no secret amongst my beauty peers that I typically find makeup uninspiring. Give me a cream cleanser, glow-boosting moisturiser, autumn perfume or nourishing body lotion, and I will chew your ear off for hours, but when it comes to the intricacies of makeup techniques, I have little to give.Shannon wears Byredo Colour Stick in Ancient.You see, it’s not that I am intentionally lazy with my makeup application.

October 12, 2021 at 06:07AM So you’ve received a wedding invitation, and you know this is your chance to dress up—or at the very least, wear something other than your leggings or joggers. The big question is what? With the types of weddings you can attend becoming increasingly diverse, so is the scope of your outfit. Many couples are now opting for smaller, more intimate celebrations, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t give your wedding guest outfit any less consideration than you would if the guest list were in the triple figures. On the flip side, with restrictions hopefully remaining lifted, others see it as an opportunity to plan full-blown black-tie events oozing glamour and to wear something exceptional. Whatever the aesthetic, venue or location of the soirée, we’ve found seven types of wedding guest outfits that cover all bases. Scroll on to see them, and you’ll have the dress code…

October 12, 2021 at 06:00AM With the power of social media, it is very rare in the world of beauty that any brand can be regarded as “under the radar.” You see, every time a person of note likes something and posts about it on their Instagram, they set the whole beauty world on fire. While this is most certainly the case for the majority of brands and products, even in 2021, not everything great breaks the internet.I know we’ve discussed this before, but the reality is even when a product is really, really great, if it doesn’t look the part, the chances of it making it onto the Discover page are low. How do I know this, you ask? Well, because I’m very much in the midst of it. When you spend a lot of time around friends and colleagues who are also…

October 12, 2021 at 06:00AM What’s better than one well-dressed celebrity? How about an impeccably stylish power couple? Every time we post on our Instagram about a Hollywood pair —Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, for example—our likes and comments go through the roof. So I decided to give our readers more of what they want and break down some of the best celeb couples outfits that I’ve seen lately. If you’re curious about what Jennifer Lopez wears for a dinner date or what outfit Beyoncé chooses for a basketball date, you’ve come to the right place. Below, I’ve rounded up some date-outfit ideas inspired by a range of celebrity couples. On Megan Fox: Danielle Guizio top; The Mannei pants. Naturally, I had to include one of the most talked-about celebrity couples of the moment: Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly. Here, Fox wore a sexy cutout top with…

October 12, 2021 at 06:00AM JW Anderson has become a bit of a magician in the world of designer handbags. Season after season, the designer offers up lust-worthy styles that are quickly catapulted to cult status within a matter of weeks, including the Disc Satchel and the iconic Pierce Bag. It might not be a brand with a history as long as Chanel, but it has certainly garnered the respect of influencers and industry insiders alike. Well, this season, the brand has dropped another gem, and of course, it’s on track to become autumn’s first It bag.Coming in a slouchy, soft leather with a chunky-chain handle, the new style is a perfect combination of practical yet luxurious, polished yet versatile. The bag also comes in a wide range of size options—from the Small with a height of 23cm to the Large, which measures at 54cm—and a selection of colourways.…

October 11, 2021 at 12:15PM If there’s one thing that we could all be getting more of right now, it’s sleep. Sure, we all know the importance of clocking in those precious eight hours of rest each night for our overall health and wellbeing, but in practice, arriving at the land of nod isn’t always so easy. Between busy work schedules, the resurgence of socialising and balancing temporary home offices with partners, kids and needy pets, many of us are feeling too frazzled to wind down at the end of the day. And failure to switch off and rest means that our skin can be left paying the price. In fact, when talking to skin experts this year, one of the most recurring themes we’ve heard has been the increase in adults seeking help for skin sensitivity, acne and inflammation, all as a…
