The Spring 2022 Shopping Guide: Where to Buy the 12 Biggest Trends of the Season

March 29, 2022 at 05:45AM There’s something for everyone in the spring shopping line-up this year—from elevated denim separates to gravity-defying platforms—but I have to say that after minimalism’s dominance over the last few years, it’s been refreshing to see an abundance of colour and prints take over both the designer runways and high-street rails for spring/summer 2022. Perhaps it’s the fashion world’s attempt to manifest joy after a long lockdown or simply a craving to shake up the sartorial agenda, but whatever it is, we are here for it. As always, it’s our job to compile the ultimate shopping list for the new season—handpicking the key themes from the runways and condensing them into an edit that works for our busy and multifaceted lives. And, as per usual, we’ve found a high-street, designer and vintage item for each trend, as we believe that…

There’s a New Diamond of the Season: Meet Bridgerton Actress Charithra Chandran

March 29, 2022 at 05:32AM There are spoilers ahead—you have been warned! *Imitates finest Julie Andrews as Lady Whistledown voice* Dearest readers, unless you have been excluded from the cultural conversation of the last two years, you will be aware of the Netflix blockbuster series Bridgerton and its namesake family, who set the Ton ablaze with drama and scandalous storylines ranging from the archaic (marriage-market matchmaking) to the downright alluring and meme-worthy. (The Duke of Hastings seductively licking a spoon is indelibly marked in our thirsty minds.)Now, Bridgerton is back for a second season, and in keeping with the storyline of the Julia Quinn novels the show is based on, the focus will pivot away from the initial tale of RegĂ©-Jean Page and Phoebe Dynevor’s Duke and Duchess of Hastings and towards new love matches. So that means dance cards are ready for bachelor Anthony…

So much so it’s making us excited just thinking out what she might wear next. The first stop on the Duke and Duchess and Cambridge’s Jubilee Tour is Belize, where the couple have been meeting with the local people, making chocolate, and dancing like, well, let’s face it, the world’s watching. Next on their itinerary is Jamaica, and then it’s on to the Bahamas. Scroll on to see all of Kate Middleton’s impressive outfits from the Royal Jubilee Tour as she wears them.Style Notes: Kicking off the last leg in their Royal Jubilee Tour of the…

What Sienna Miller Wears Instead of Jeans and a Nice Top

March 28, 2022 at 11:00AM She may not have walked the Oscars red carpet (instead skipping straight to the after party—atta’ girl), but Sienna Miller still managed to make her sartorial mark on the Academy Awards—and in a way we can actually re-create. Interest piqued? I thought it would be. The actress and Who What Wear fashion favourite attended the glitzy Chanel and Charles Finch Pre-Oscars dinner at the weekend—a soirĂ©e that was also attended by Academy Award Best Actress nominee Kristen Stewart and Lily James. Sienna Miller presents a chic outfit alternative to the jeans and a nice top ensemble so many of us favour. Where many might have chosen a pretty, sparkly dress, for the occasion, Miller kept things low-key and inherently cool, opting for a pair of wide-leg leather trousers and a cute bouclĂ© cropped cardigan—a very sleek alternative to the jeans-and-a-nice top outfit combination we all…

Zendaya Wore an Unexpected Crop Top on the Oscars Red Carpet

March 28, 2022 at 10:28AM Zendaya has become one of the most highly anticipated celebrities at red carpet events, and this year’s Oscars were no different. She and stylist Law Roach have become one of fashion’s favorite duos, providing us with stunning, bar-raising red carpet looks. Tonight, Zendaya decided to ditch the traditional long-gown style and wear a crop top and metallic skirt by Valentino. She can pull off virtually anything, but this look is especially gorgeous. The top is a cropped silk dress shirt with a classic collar and button-down detailing, and the hem is cut in a way that gives us a peek at Zendaya’s midsection. Paired with it were a floor-length silver skirt and a silver bracelet wrapped around her arm. The metallic skirt added the perfect touch of Hollywood glam and elevated the whole ensemble. Zendaya could write the book on how to look chic, elevated, youthful, and…

Okay, I Can’t Get Over the Thigh-High Slit in Lily James’s Oscars Dress

March 28, 2022 at 09:55AM After a few virtual award-show seasons, I couldn’t be more excited for the 2022 Academy Awards. Of all of the glamorous gowns I’ve seen so far, one look has really stolen my heart. Lily James, the star of the Hulu series Pam & Tommy, hit the carpet wearing a stunning light-pink Atelier Versace gown. The dainty dress with elegant lace detailing looks as pretty as it sounds, and James paired it with a gorgeous diamond necklace and matching pink Versace platform heels. When I first saw this look, my heart stopped. James looks like an absolute princess, but what really takes this gown to the next level is the thigh-high slit. This slit comes all the way up James’s thigh, showing her bubblegum-pink platforms and amazing legs. The slit adds a certain element of sexiness to an otherwise romantic gown, elevating the whole look. When it comes to a…

The Oscars After-Party Outfits That Rival the Red Carpet

March 28, 2022 at 08:48AM The Oscars were held in Los Angeles on Sunday, marking the 94th edition of the show. Naturally, the red carpet was jam-packed with A-list nominees and presenters, such as Nicole Kidman, ZoĂ« Kravitz, and Zendaya. But the annual Vanity Fair after-party always attracts an incredibly impressive guest list that rivals the main red carpet. At the after-party, guests typically wear more daring, risquĂ© looks than they would at the prestigious Academy Awards, which makes it particularly fun as a fashion fan. The event even gave us one of Bennifer’s most viral photos back in 2003, so we have high hopes for this year. Scroll down to see the best red carpet outfits from all of the Oscars after-parties. WHO: ZendayaWHO: Sydney Sweeney. WEAR: Miu Miu dressWHO: Dakota Johnson. WEAR: Gucci dressWHO: Anya Taylor-Joy.

These Are the 18 Affordable Anti-Ageing Skincare Products That Actually Work

March 28, 2022 at 08:00AM If I had to highlight only one term that has the power to make a beauty editor shudder unlike any other, it would have to be “anti-ageing”. Because the truth is (and brace yourselves for this one), no beauty product truly has the power to totally reverse the signs of ageing. No serum, cream, oil or mask that money can buy can actually eradicate wrinkles. With that being said, there are a very small number of ingredients that can definitely help minimise signs of ageing (and even more so when they’re used alongside youth-preserving massage techniques). But when I say very small, I mean it. In fact, there is only a handful of ingredients that have been scientifically-proven to reduce the appearance of age-related skin issues. From wrinkle-reducing retinol to skin brightening vitamin C, it’s hard to comprehend why beauty companies expect us to pay premium…

These Cheap Moisturisers Are Just as Good as Their Expensive Counterparts

March 28, 2022 at 08:00AM A good moisturiser is a skincare staple. Second only to a great cleanser, a moisturising cream is the most important step in your routine to ensure you’re flooding the skin with hydration and vital antioxidants. Plus, a good one will act as the final step in protecting your skin against environmental aggressors during the day and will help your skin cells recharge and rejuvenate overnight.The problem with many moisturisers, however, is that they can be the most expensive element of a good skincare routine. With clever active ingredients and luxe textures, when it comes to the final step of your routine, you can expect to pay a little more, but that doesn’t mean you should have to.There are now some seriously amazing dupes out there from more affordable brands—all of which offer a high-quality product without the enormous price tag.Not…
