Who What Wear

October 05, 2021 at 06:08AM Party dresses. Remember those? We’re not talking about those with oversize silhouettes or cosy, woollen textures. Instead, we’re reminiscing of a time when we had a reason to party in our fanciest frock. But with any luck, we won’t need to reminisce this year. Now that we’re in October, we think talking about party season is fair game, and boy, are we excited at the prospect of wearing something glam. We’ve been anticipating it so much that we already know what we’ll wear to such an occasion—an update on a bonafide wardrobe staple.Black dresses are classic—this we know—and it seems our favourite designers have been inspired by its timelessness, for the most noteworthy collections all feature a unique take on the black dress. Boasting design details like asymmetric hems, thread-like straps, alluring necklines, and figure-hugging cuts, these are no everyday black…

October 05, 2021 at 06:04AM Autumn outfits can require quite a bit of planning. Coat or no coat? How many layers are too many layers? The below outfit ideas will see you through cooler days and right into the time when it turns really cold. Thankfully, online retailers are preempting our shopping whims and already starting to slowly fill their new-in sections with knitwear and trench coats. So although it might seem slightly early (we’re still pretending we’re having an extended summer), this is actually the perfect moment to take a pause and really think about what is missing from your autumn wardrobe before you start adding to it.The below outfits include several classics that you’d typically expect from an autumn capsule, including trench coats, leather jackets and jeans, alongside some new additions that feel really relevant for the upcoming season. Think chunky track-sole boots worn with puff-sleeve dresses or ‘70s-style fringed…

October 05, 2021 at 06:00AM Despite being a beauty editor with an extensive stash of products at my disposal, when it comes to my daily beauty routine, I’m decidedly low-maintenance. In fact, my usual morning ritual before a work-from-home day consists of a lightning-fast shower, a quick blast of dry shampoo, and then some concealer, brow gel, lip balm and liquid highlighter. Yes, you read that right—liquid highlighter. I will admit that highlighter doesn’t sound like the most obvious of makeup choices when going for a pared-back look, but trust me when I say that a good liquid highlighter can make all the difference in transforming tired-looking skin into a complexion that rivals J.Lo’s level of glow.So, because it's one of the few makeup products that I wear on my face every single day, I always make it my mission to try every single liquid highlighter that lands on…

October 05, 2021 at 06:00AM After the shortest summer of all time, autumn has officially arrived. And, if I’m being totally honest, I’m here for it—along with the rest of the beauty industry it turns out. We’ve already predicted what our wardrobes are going to look like for autumn and winter, so I thought there was no better time to tap my beauty contacts for what our beauty habits will be looking like as we move through the final months of 2021. And trust me when I say that things are looking up. While there will be experimental colour switch-ups in our makeup bags and at our hair appointments, there’s also a welcome return to self-care and nourishment as we seek out comfort in our skincare and bodycare routines. Plus, nail art’s popularity looks set to grow.Ahead, I’ve spoken to experts in all things hair, nails, makeup…

October 05, 2021 at 06:14AM Here in Britain, we’re fortunate to have one of the most eclectic fashion scenes out there. From punk to polish, Dr. Martens to twinsets, so broad is the term “British style” it’s difficult for even us to pinpoint. But that’s what we love about it. After all, fashion is one of the most readily available forms of self-expression, and we don’t think anyone should be limited to one aesthetic.Still, some pieces feel undeniably British—aka staples that can be found in just about every Brit wardrobe, whatever the other items hanging alongside them may look like. Assemble them, and what do you get? Twelve absolutely British fashion essentials, all of which can be worn in a multitude of ways.Scroll below to see how some of our favourite UK-based influencers style them and shop the pieces you need to complete…

October 04, 2021 at 08:00AM Getting to grips with exactly what sort of beauty practices are right and what are wrong can feel quite overwhelming. One minute, double cleansing is all the rage, and the next, everyone’s preaching that it’s wasteful and unnecessary. It makes total sense, therefore, that when it comes to your beauty routine, you should just do whatever feels best for you.However, with that being said, according to experts, there are a handful of beauty habits and tendencies that could be adding years onto your appearance—no ifs, ands or buts. So if you’re fed up of spending a fortune of anti-ageing lotions and potions to no avail, it could be worth taking a long, hard look at your routine as a whole. To help you establish exactly what parts of your regimen could be working against you, we’ve enlisted the…
