Everyone I Follow Has This Trending Candle—And It’s Only £15
After spending an inordinate amount of time at home this year, there’s absolutely no denying that we’ve all become a little more conscious of our spaces. I for one will be the first to admit I’ve become thoroughly obsessed with homeware, and as with most things, I have found myself turning to Instagram for inspiration. From chic sofas to quirky table lamps and coffee table books I’d love to thumb through, there is no shortage of Insta-worthy decor on the aesthetically-pleasing app, though recently the one item I’ve found myself drawn to has been candles. Historically, when talking about candle ‘trends’ we’ve often analysed the key scents for the season or chronicled up-and-coming brands which have gained our attenti...
Fashion Girls Can’t Stop Wearing These Pretty Winter Makeup Trends
As we make our way through the last days of crisp autumn into the depths winter, it’s become more and more clear that we’re traversing unprecedented times. IRL interactions are still limited, and even when they do occur, masks and face coverings keep us from taking in each other’s mugs the way we once could. Despite all of this, there are still some makeup trends that have taken hold that speak to the times and prove that fashion girls will continue to serve face, even if only over Zoom and Instagram. No surprises there—am I right? While the vampy wintery vibes of yesteryear aren’t quite as strong, the looks are still perfect for channeling the seasonal shift in style. From bold lip moments to chic eye shadow and even an unexpected remi...
6 Women Over 40 Reveal the Foundations They Swear by for Flawless Skin
Finding a great foundation that tackles every single one of your skin’s needs is no mean feat. In fact, many spend years on the hunt for the perfect formula. And the worst part is that sometimes, even when you have spent many moons testing and trialling different products, you might finally find the one, only for your skin to change its mind on it after a few months. Sadly, such makeup dramas are never more prominent than when we are dealing with skin ageing. As we get older, the stuff that our skin naturally produces to keep it looking plump, hydrated and radiant starts to diminish – and these signs commonly start to show once we hit our 40s. With decreased collagen and hyaluronic acid production, even those that spent the first few decades of their life with a flawless, d...
Why the Micro Manicure Is Set to Be the Next Big Thing
And the best bit is, the style is totally universal. “It’s become such a popular choice because it’s the most flattering style of manicure, no matter what shape or size your nail bed. When it’s done correctly, it elongates and compliments all nails,” Westmoreland says. And while it is best executed by a professional in a salon, with a bit of patience and practise, you can do it yourself at home, too. “Make sure you set enough time aside because it can be a bit fiddly. Be prepared to practice and spend time prepping the nail. If the prep isn’t right, your polish won’t be either,” she adds. Keen to give the micro mani a go for yourself?

15 Throw-On Outfits That Are Anything But Boring
If there was one word that dominated the fashion landscape in 2020 it would have to be loungewear. The numbers don’t lie: According to Lyst’s ‘Year in Fashion’ report, searches for sweatpants went up 104% month-on-month throughout April, and cosy buys such as Nike joggers (a 213% spike year-on-year), Ugg slippers (201,000 average monthly searches) and Frankie Shop’s tank top dominated the ‘World’s Most Wanted’ top 10. Meanwhile, searches for co-ords increased 120% year-on-year. Phew, that’s a whole lotta loungewear. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

We’ve Discussed It and These Other 6 Brands Are Just As Good As Zara
Zara needs absolutely no introduction that’s for sure. From Instagram accounts honoring a trending Zara coat or spotty dress to being the Duchess of Cambridge‘s go-to for classic staples, Zara can do no wrong. But did you know that the high-street mega brand also owns a load of other different, but just as great, high-street labels? It might have passed you by as each of the sister brands has its own identity—distinctly different from the original, so you might not even realise they’re part of the same group. There’s Massimo Dutti, which is a more grown-up sort of label, offering chic separates such as cashmere cardigans and leather shirts. Uterqüe is the fashion-forward brand, which is the place to find brightly-coloured shirts and bol...

This Basic £25 H&M Knit Makes Any Winter Outfit Look Luxe
As we settle into winter, knitwear tends to ascend the ranks of our priority list. The cosy cold-weather staple becomes a daily must-have and a key part of every outfit, regardless of the occasion. Of course, this means we’re constantly on the lookout for new styles and quality investment pieces that we know will see us through winters to come. Enter H&M. The high-street retailer has become a go-to for many stylish insiders and this year in particular their knitwear offering has been exceptionally strong. From trend-led styles, like statement collar jumpers to traditional classics, such as chunky cable knits, H&M’s knitwear selection has been championed by influencers and editors alike. Stylist Hannah Lewis has been spotted in one of the retailer’s...
I’m Too Lazy to Dress Up This Christmas, But I Just Might Wear These 6 Outfits
It’s the fashion update that I never would’ve predicted a month ago, but according to Lyst searches for sequin pieces have risen significantly over the last two weeks, with page views currently up 165%, alongside an 88% rise in searches for glitter and crystal-embellished shoes. Apparently, despite a global pandemic, lots of the British public are still up for getting on their glad rags for the festive season—even if that’s from the comfort of their sofa. In some ways, it’s not that surprising if you consider the fact that most of us have been living in loungewear for the last seven months and celebrations have been put on pause. I don’t know about you, but I’m certainly taking advantage of...
Trust Me, I’m An Editor—20 Buys That I’m Loving This December
As an editor at Who What Wear, I typically spend a lot of time looking at new-in products. So every month, I update this story with the pieces that have caught my eye or that I have saved to my wish list. For winter, more than ever, I’m leaning towards classic, quality pieces that feel really elevated and special, but that I can wear for my more low-key 2020 plans. As several warehouses and stores shuttered this year, the fashion industry faces huge challenges and strains that pose an inevitable threat to businesses. Many of us won’t be shopping in the same way this year, but even a like on Instagram or a message of support can provide a boost for these brands. I certainly don’t want anyone to feel like they have to buy more right now in a time of such hei...
This £20 Cream Is the Low-Maintenance Product I Need Right Now
Apparently, Egyptian Magic Cream is “based on a formula that was created thousands of years ago in the land of the Pharaohs.” It certainly feels classic and reminds me of the home-spun products my mum and grandparents swear by—passed-down potions made from natural ingredients which exist solely to heal and soothe. It’s made with all natural ingredients including olive oil, beeswax, bee pollen and royal jelly, and it works. My skin (normal/combination) drinks this thick balm up. After three months of using it, my skin texture is visibly smoother, brighter and makeup applies like a dream. Please be wary that this is a heavy duty cream and a little goes a hell of a long way. For this reason I use it at night as the last step in my winter skincare routine. I would be a little more tentative if...
