Who What Wear

February 18, 2022 at 08:00AM When it comes to outfit styling, few events provide as much inspiration as fashion week. Bringing together the fashion world’s most stylish individuals, these events act as a one-stop shop for outfit ideas and styling inspo.With autumn on the horizon, I’ve been thinking about the season’s staples and pondering the best trouser-and-shoe pairings. Wide-leg trousers have always illuded me as they seem to be a particularly difficult item to pair with footwear. (Evidently, I’m not alone. We’ve recently seen an increase in searches of the phrase, “shoes to wear with wide-leg trousers.”)Luckily, the street style at Copenhagen Fashion Week offered up plenty of inspiration on this exact topic and was a veritable masterclass in how to style wide-leg trousers. Whether you’re looking to style flared jeans, wide-leg leather pants or traditional suit trousers, CPHFW had a footwear option for every…

February 18, 2022 at 08:00AM Despite its relative newness on the high street, & Other Stories has quickly established itself as a go-to for enviable denim silhouettes. From its Favourite Cut to fashion editors’ highly treasured Keeper Cut, the brand has a pair of jeans for every occasion. For many of us, jeans are one of the most used items of clothing in our wardrobes, so it’s important to keep finding new ways to wear our old faithfuls. Luckily, & Other Stories has plenty of inspo to offer in this department, too.I’ve done a bit of digging to find five classic denim styles that I’d love to live in this spring and beyond. I’ve also styled them with some of & Other Stories’s new-in separates to give you some ideas of how to make them feel fresh for the new season—you’re very welcome.…

February 18, 2022 at 08:00AM If you have fine hair, you’ve probably gone through your fair share of dry shampoo, fringes sticking to your face, and curls that fall out within minutes. Styling fine hair and experimenting with cuts in the search for volume can often be tricky to master. Going for the crop or styling your already-short hair might be all you need to do to work with the texture that you’ve got. Short hair means volume, and that’s always what we’re going for, right? Thanks to some expert advice from Michael Lendon, creative director of Aveda, and Christel Lundqvist, founder of Stil Salon, we’ve got some pro tips for you to implement. Combine that with the best product picks for adding volume and texture, and you’ll be well on your way to finding the best hairstyle to make your routine easier. Ready for some style inspiration?

February 18, 2022 at 08:00AM Pre-Instagram, we might’ve had to rely on fashion week for our street style round-ups, but when it comes to experiencing global style in 2022, we’re spoilt for choice. Not only does social media allow us to see the outfits of people on every continent at a click of a button, but it also gives us a chance to reassess the sartorial tropes that have developed around certain countries.One of the most well-worn fashion stereotypes has to be that of the French girl. This classic French fashion type is characterised by expensive basics, Breton tops, silk shirts and tasteful yet subdued occasionwear—all of which is embodied by the likes of Carine Roitfeld and Emmanuelle Alt.While there are many who still love the traditional, pared-back aesthetic, Instagram proves that it is no longer representative of the average fashion-loving Parisienne, with influencers…

February 18, 2022 at 08:00AM How does Jennifer Lopez dress for a date night in Los Angeles? Well, for dinner with Ben Affleck at celebrity-favourite restaurant Craig’s, she kept it sleek and simple in a slim-fit tank top, high-waisted, wide-leg trousers, and some designer jewellery. (Oh, and don’t forget her best accessory of all: her ripped arms.)Wide-leg trousers are a fun trend to experiment with if you’ve been wearing your go-to skinny jeans to shreds lately. The pants are super comfortable and easy to wear yet look a lot more polished than denim, making them perfect for date night. Scroll down to see Jennifer Lopez’s new outfit, and shop similar pieces for yourself.  On Jennifer Lopez: Foundrae necklace; Loro Piana Sesia Bag (£2885)This price tag is incredibly tempting. This tank from Kim Kardashian’s brand, Skims, has rave reviews. Another well-priced basic that you’ll get a ton of use out of. These…

February 18, 2022 at 08:00AM Whatever your thoughts on anti-ageing as a term, there’s no denying that moisturisers, which are created to specifically tackle things like fine lines, pigmentation and dryness, can be incredibly expensive due to their potent ingredients and advanced formulations. And while I truly believe that ageing is a privilege we should fully embrace—wrinkles and all—it doesn’t mean that taking good care of our skin as we grow older should cost a small fortune. This is why I’ve made it my mission to seek out anti-ageing products that genuinely work without breaking the bank. I’ve already discovered some brilliant serums and eye creams that rival counterparts with three-figure price tags, but today we’re here to talk about anti-ageing moisturisers—and cheap ones at that.Ahead, keep scrolling to shop seven of the best affordable anti-ageing moisturisers that genuinely hold their own against some of my luxurious favourites.It’s all about ingredients when choosing an efficacious anti-ageing moisturiser,…

February 18, 2022 at 07:00AM You might have sensed that we like fashion. Scrap that—we LOVE fashion. Fashion is our everything!  Getting dressed should be a joy, and one of the things that’s makes us happiest is finding a (somewhat rare) sustainable, affordable fashion gem. We’re big fans here of shopping vintage, hiring fancy outfits for big events and rewearing the heck out of everything we buy (so much so that we have an entire franchise dedicated to finding out how our favourite influencers and experts get the most of our their clothes) but, in general, there’s a lot more that the sustainable affordable fashion market could offer, and that’s where we’re deciding to step in.That’s right, folks—we’re designing our own affordable and sustainable fashion brand that doesn’t scrimp on a single bit of fabulousness while still remaining true to our ethos of filling our…

February 18, 2022 at 06:30AM When it comes to Gen Z’s penchant for beauty, one thing that certainly can’t be disputed is how beneficial it has been for the industry. Gen Z champion a sort of carefree revolt against the beauty ideals that have held every generation before them to impossible standards. They celebrate natural skin and hair textures, welcome what were once considered ‘daring’ trends with open arms and, let’s face it, elevated Y2K beauty looks way beyond what we millennials did first time around.One area that I feel as though Gen Z don’t get enough credit for within beauty, however, is their trend-setting hair colours. Over the past few years, we have seen a huge uplift in variety of choice when it comes to our hair colour, and this is in large part thanks to Gen Z. Forget balayaged blonde, block-dyed brunette and…

February 18, 2022 at 06:30AM Very few brands have a cult following of beauty editors quite like French skincare brand La Roche-Posay. Besides the fact that the products are affordable and readily available, the reason that La Roche-Posay is such a hit amongst us beauty eds is actually down to what I like to call its antidote status. Let me explain. Right now, it seems like every time I click onto Instagram there is a new product that skinfluencers can’t get enough of. From glow-boosting serums to spot-blitzing masks, the power of a skincare product that goes viral knows no bounds. While trying to keep up with the ever-changing world of skincare can be totally exhausting for the average shopper, for us beauty editors, it can wreak havoc on our skin.You don’t need me to tell you that chopping and changing your skincare line-up every time a new It…
