July 09, 2021 at 06:00AM Georgia May Jagger is into beauty in a big way. “My parents were a little bit strict with me not being allowed to wear mascara or anything until I turned maybe 13, so as soon as I was allowed to wear makeup then I was

July 09, 2021 at 06:00AM We fashion journalists like to talk a lot about “forever items” and “staples,” and in all honesty, I do think that both the industry and the general public are slowly becoming better at having a more measured approach to deciding what we actually need in our wardrobes.
July 09, 2021 at 06:00AM In the style inspiration stakes, the French girl look will forever be at the top of our list—we never get bored of the plethora of cool-girl outfits that come from this part of the world. Of course, the notion of what constitutes ‘French style’ has changed over
July 09, 2021 at 05:20AM Can you wear black to a wedding? In my opinion, it’s a yes, but with a few rules, regs and caveats. I’ve personally worn black to three weddings over the past few years, and it hasn’t caused trouble yet. In fact, the formulas I’ve come
July 08, 2021 at 11:49AM I didn’t realise quite how much I had missed the high-octane glamour of the red carpet until last night’s Cannes Film Festival arrivals. Bella Hadid wowed the masked crowd in her Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture look: a stunning monochrome gown that was absolute perfection from its
July 08, 2021 at 08:00AM After nearly a year of social distancing that’s lead to some unexpectedly long and scraggly lengths, the urge to chop all your hair off might be stronger than ever. While this sentiment might normally be met with blank stares and reminders to exercise caution, it just so
July 08, 2021 at 08:00AM From bakuchiol to CBD, 2021 has already seen it’s fair share of trending skincare ingredients, and I’ve tried them all. From overcoming my resistance to retinol to embracing a more pared-back approach to my skincare routine, I love experimenting to work out which ingredients are truly worth putting on my skin. There’s
July 08, 2021 at 08:00AM The skin around your eyes is very delicate and thin, so you want to be gentle with it. That means using the right products and avoiding rubbing, scratching, or pulling at the area. Because that area is so sensitive, you might also find yourself dealing
July 08, 2021 at 08:00AM The Duchess of Cambridge stepped out in rainy Wolverhampton today for a series of engagements and proved, yet again, that denim is not the only way to pull together an easy, chic outfit. Wearing a look that was very reminiscent of a navy ensemble she chose
July 08, 2021 at 08:00AM Up until about six years ago, aside from holiday sandals, I never used to wear flat shoes. Instead, I’d teeter around in heels, whatever the occasion—be it a night out or a trip to the supermarket. I guess I had subscribed to the idea that
July 08, 2021 at 06:24AM Whenever I’m in Mango, Zara, or H&M, I just feel like I am home (both in the store and online). Each one is relatively similar, and I know my favourite sections—where I’ll find more going-out pieces, where they place their newest items, where the more discounted
July 08, 2021 at 06:10AM Some of my fondest memories involve pitching a tent and lying under the stars. From summer holidays with my family to my first trip away with my now-husband, camping has always been my staycation of choice. Now, with little option but to explore home soil,
July 08, 2021 at 06:00AM Between the excitement of nail salons reopening and the promise of summer to come (hopefully), there has been a noticeable shift in the types of manicures that I’ve spotted on Instagram lately. Gone are the neutral colours and basic shades that all the chicest women were stepping out in earlier
July 08, 2021 at 06:00AM It’s hard to put my finger on exactly what it is about French girls that we Brits find so damn alluring. Perhaps it’s their ability to build a timeless capsule wardrobe that always looks stylish or their penchant for a basic makeup product that will
July 08, 2021 at 06:00AM There’s a good reason that anti-ageing is one of the most hotly contested terms in the beauty industry: While there are some potent antioxidants and scientifically-proven ingredients that can slow down things like fine lines and loss of elasticity, nothing that you apply to your face can totally stop ageing in its
July 08, 2021 at 06:00AM While the weather might be less than satisfactory here in the UK, it’s all about the sunshine when it comes to one of the key colour trends of the season. Both designer and high-street brands alike are drawing inspiration from the warming hues of the setting sun, starting
July 08, 2021 at 06:00AM Okay COS, you really need to stop delivering such enviable looks this summer, because it is really testing my shopping willpower. I’ve already caved when it comes to the brand’s versatile T-shirt dress which I bought in black (it’s a 10 of out 10 from me), but every week
July 08, 2021 at 05:05AM You know this already—we have a thing for French style. This probably doesn’t come as a big surprise, as we’ve investigated everything from the pieces they fill their homes with to what Parisians wear to weddings. In other words, we’ve done our research narrowing in on how

July 07, 2021 at 09:00AM I’ve written mainly about how to replicate Parisian style for Who What Wear over the past couple of years, but interiors and sourcing unique finds for my home also form a large part of my work and interests. I’m an avid interior design geek and

July 07, 2021 at 08:29AM Zara is known for having two major sales—summer and Boxing Day. The latter is always pretty clear when it starts, but the former can be a little trickier. I’ve got good news, then: The Zara summer sale has officially started. We always advise caution when
July 07, 2021 at 08:04AM Hold up—there are actually items Who What Wear UK editors won’t buy from Zara? I know—we can barely believe it ourselves, but it’s true, and today we’re here to share exactly what we prefer not to buy from the fast-fashion retailer. While the “don’t-buy” lists
July 07, 2021 at 08:00AM With nail salons back open for business, my Saved folder on Instagram is rapidly filling up with manicure inspiration for the season ahead, and I’ve noticed one unexpected look that’s trending right now: glitter nails. Yes, while pastel hues and cute nail art still look set to be classic summer staples, the coolest
July 07, 2021 at 08:00AM With the temperature gauge almost reaching 30°, we have finally found an excuse to unleash our summer dress collection. Whether you’re a clean-lined minimalist, a floral fanatic, a lover of boho ruffles or someone who craves a simple T-shirt dress, it’s fair to say that there’s plenty to choose from this
July 07, 2021 at 08:00AM If you had asked any beauty insider back in January what the big hair trends for the year ahead would be, it’s unlikely anyone would have said grown-out roots, wonky fringes, and patchy box dye jobs. Yet here we are. The year is finally drawing to a close, and
July 07, 2021 at 08:00AM I love a good bit of minimalism in the summer. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not averse to bright colours, but there’s something so chic about wearing muted tones in the heat. This year, as I won’t be heading overseas or to anywhere that actually has
July 07, 2021 at 08:00AM For those of you who live in jeans and trousers, curating a strong top selection is key, particularly in summer. In lieu of a coat, jacket or knitwear, your top will need to work even harder to ensure your overall outfit hits the sartorial sweet spot.
July 07, 2021 at 07:00AM Zara’s new shoe drop is simply spectacular right now, and I need to share all of the footwear goodness that’s happening there. After a year of living in house slippers and my standby sneakers—which I still love and wear on repeat, by the way)—I’m feeling ready
July 07, 2021 at 06:10AM If there’s one thing we can’t get enough of (and you’ve probably noticed) it’s dresses. Be it for day or night, they serve as the ultimate no-hassle outfit solution that always looks like you put in way more styling effort than was actually required. Choose
