July 10, 2021 at 06:00AM 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

July 10, 2021 at 06:00AM What do Meghan Markle and Sienna Miller have in common? Well, apart from lucrative acting careers, that is. We’re specifically thinking of a sartorial symmetry between the two celebs: a love for blue-and-white striped shirts. Only this week, Miller was spotted in head-to-toe pinstripes at Wimbledon, while it was back in
July 10, 2021 at 05:08AM Does such a thing as the best strapless bra exist? I can’t count the number of times I’ve sworn them off after spending an embarrassing evening hoisting them up. But when you want to wear your favourite off-the-shoulder dress, what are the options? Now, you
July 09, 2021 at 10:07AM Big celebrity events have been few and far between thanks to Covid. And I, for one, have missed the glamour. But thanks to Wimbledon, we’ve had a few sightings to placate those of us who are hungry for some A-list action. First, we had Kate
July 09, 2021 at 08:00AM “Benjamin Buttoning.” Ageing backwards. Stopping time. If there’s one effect or buzzword that elicits the same visceral reaction from beauty editors, skincare experts, and customers alike, it’s anything with the term anti-ageing in it. The truth of the matter is this: There’s no miracle cream, gel, serum
July 09, 2021 at 08:00AM If there’s one thing we know, it’s that Who What Wear readers are obsessed with two things: dresses and shoes. These two subjects always dominate our So Should I Buy This? Facebook group, and now that we find ourselves on the cusp of bare-leg season,
July 09, 2021 at 08:00AM When it comes to our body, time takes its toll on just about all of it. And although we know all too well what ageing does to our skin, when it comes to other areas of our beauty regimens, age is rarely factored in. From
July 09, 2021 at 08:00AM Skincare can be really expensive. In fact, I’m kind of fed up of tip-toeing around the fact that in so many cases, we’re all being painfully overcharged for certain skincare products. Brands know all too well the price that we’re willing to pay for great
July 09, 2021 at 08:00AM I really love jeans. While I’m not about to change my name to Levi Strauss, I do own around 20 pairs, which is probably quite a lot. But in my defence, they make up the majority of my wardrobe, and half of the pairs have been in there for
July 09, 2021 at 06:09AM I don’t know if it’s a ripple effect from the last year and a half or a byproduct of being in my 30s, but now more than ever, I find myself gravitating towards simple outfits. While statement-making looks—particularly those found on the red carpet—are always
July 09, 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 (which will probably be here before we know it) and right into the time when it turns really cold.
July 09, 2021 at 06:00AM If you’re not overly familiar with Dyson haircare, let me offer you a brief overview. Back in 2016, the brand, previously known for crafting high-end vacuum cleaners, hand driers, and fans, launched into beauty with the Supersonic Hair Dryer (£300). It promised intense power with minimal
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
