The Complete Capsule: Our List of the Best Basics Money Can Buy
Behind every immaculate outfit or fabulous wardrobe, is an arsenal of reliable basics. It’s all well and good having the latest It bag or trend piece, but getting dressed will always be difficult if you don’t have the foundations right too. Once you find the perfect black blazer, pair of jeans or pair of ankle boots, you never need to find another one again. So it’s worth putting in the time to find the best versions of these staples—when you own the perfect jumper or white shirt, there’s no need for mediocre duplicates that won’t ever make you feel as good. This only-go-for-the-very-best approach to shopping not only leads to a tighter wardrobe that is made to last, but also a more polished look overall. Together, our Who What Wear editors have ove...
I’m Seriously Fussy, But These Are the 15 Best Festive Candles This Year
I’m putting it out there: I’m a candle hoarder. I have drawers full of them. From fresh, airy scents to woody, spicy aromas, I’ve got a plethora of options in my collection—one for every mood. And as a candle obsessive, we’re finally entering my favourite time of the year. With Christmas approaching, I’m gearing up to unwrap all of the most festive scents in my collection and turn my home into a Christmassy grotto. The only problem is that when it comes to Christmas scents, I’m seriously fussy. The idea of filling my room with the sorts of traditional heady, sickly scents associated with Christmas makes me want to run for the hills. I like my festive candles to smell fresh and crisp but with a warming (but not headache-inducing) base that makes me want to snuggle up under a blanket. A...
23 of the Best Candles to Make Your Home Smell Incredible
As the days become shorter and the temperatures drop, we find ourselves looking for new ways to cosify our homes, and nothing can bestow your rooms with a hygge appeal quite like scented candles. Let’s be honest: If there was ever a time for bringing a little extra zen into our households, it’s probably now as we prepare to hunker down in more ways than one. Needless to say, it’s challenging to separate your work and home spaces or switch off your mind when you need to, something that is made all the more difficult with the dark nights. But something simple like lighting your favourite candle can be an easy way to change the vibe of a room and get you to that happy place. We all have our little routines, whether it’s having a daily bubble bath or doing an at-home y...
Katie Holmes Wore the Season’s Trendiest Skinny Jeans
Katie Holmes loves jeans. We know this. She’s photographed almost every day and is almost always wearing jeans, and those jeans are almost always of the classic straight-leg variety. But not this time. Holmes wore a pair of light-wash skinny jeans that were anything but basic, thanks to the somewhat dramatic slit at the hem. Given the popularity of the slit-hem leggings trend this year, we’re not all that surprised that skinny jeans are the next iteration of the trend. It’s been on our radar as we’ve seen more and more slit-him jeans on our shopping travels lately, and Katie Holmes’s endorsement basically solidifies the trend. The true New Yorker that she is, she paired the jeans with a black wool coat and black heeled ankle boots (sorry, you’r...
The Duchess of Cambridge Wore the Most Festive Tartan Face Mask From Designer Emilia Wickstead
The Duchess of Cambridge has certainly pulled out all of her most festive outfits for her and Prince William’s three-day Royal Train tour of the UK, and that includes festive face masks. The tour is set to cover 1,250 miles over three days to thank individuals and communities for their work during the coronavirus pandemic. Whilst the focus is, of course, on the work the couple is doing, we can’t help but obsess over the duchess’s festive outfits. From her favourite winter coats, red-and-green tartan scarves, and one very cosy fair isle jumper, Catherine’s certainly making us feel joyful and ready for the festive season. But it’s not just the duchess’s coats and scarves making us feel merry and bright — her face masks are also giving off Christmas-y vibes...
34 H&M Finds You Would Only Know About If You Scrolled Through Every Page
H&M is a gold mine of affordable and trendy finds, but at what cost? Some of the best items on the site require time and energy filled with too much scrolling and way too many open tabs on your computer. Is it worth it? Most definitely. However, it is my job (literally) to make sure your shopping experiences are as effortless as possible which is why I did all the heavy lifting for you in this particular roundup. I went through almost every page on H&M to identify the best fashion-editor-approved finds on the site. I located 43 of them so you know there will be at least a handful of items you’ll feel compelled enough to add to your shopping carts. Including current outerwear trends, essential winter basics, and much more, it is my hope that you can sit back and rel...
I Just Looked Through Thousands of Dresses, and These 26 Wowed Me
If there’s one thing I know about Who What Wear readers, it’s that you all love dresses. While we might not have as many opportunities to wear frocks to parties, dinners, pubs, and clubs, especially with the festive season coming up, don’t let that put you off wearing something that you love. In a nutshell, wear that dress that you’ve had your eye on because it’ll make you feel great. To help, I decided to look through literally thousands of dresses online and find the best party dresses I could for Christmas 2020. There are a few rules I often stick to for dressing during the festive period. Firstly, I like to pick something I’ll wear over and over so it doesn’t go to the big festive wardrobe in the sky. Sequins are fine so long as you rememb...
Kate Middleton Loves Her Blue Catherine Walker Coat So Much, She Re-Wore It Two Years Later
Much like her late mother-in-law Princess Diana, the Duchess of Cambridge loves a smart, tailored coat by Catherine Walker. Kate Middleton has worn the designer for countless public engagements, ever since her very first royal tour with Prince William in 2011. But of all the gorgeous outerwear she has worn by the designer, there is one piece that Kate seems to love the most — the cerulean blue Catherine Walker coat. For Kate’s latest outing with the blue coat, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge arrived in Scotland for the first day of their Royal Train Tour. The Duchess paired her sleek coat with black leather gloves, a black Strathberry Multrees Chain Wallet clutch, and black suede Ralph Lauren Collection boots. The first time we’ve seen Kate in the Catherine Walker coat was in...
The Duchess of Cambridge Brought Out Her Most Festive Outfits For the Royal Train Tour
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s three day tour aboard the Royal Train takes the couple through England, Scotland, and Wales and is a way to “pay tribute to the incredible work of individuals and organisations that have gone above and beyond in response to the coronavirus pandemic,”according to Kensington Palace. And whilst the focus of the tour is on the amazing work of the charities and frontline and essential workers, we couldn’t help but notice Catherine’s many festive outfits on the trip. From cosy fair isle jumpers and red and green tartan scarves to the array of statement-making coats she’s pulled from her wardrobe, the Duchess’s ensembles for this minitour are definitely making us feel merry and bright. From the very start of the tour — ...

If There’s One Accessory Trend You Try This Winter, Make It This One
To steal the popular adage from Miranda Priestly, chain detailing doesn’t seem like the most groundbreaking concept when it comes to accessory trends. After all, chains have been used as functional straps on handbags for several decades. But when it comes to the chain embellishments of 2020, we have to say, they are definitely something to write home about. This season, the humble chain detail has been given an upgrade, and yes we mean that quite literally. Supersized and placed on shoes, jewellery and clothing, chains have gone from simply being a practical addition on an accessory to becoming a statement-making detail in and of themselves. From JW Anderson to Bottega Veneta, oversize chains appeared across the runway for A/W 2020—placed atop loafers, ...
