Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge arrived in the city yesterday from Anmer Hall, the Cambridge country home in Norfolk, to attend several engagements in East London. Kate and William were keen to understand how local businesses and communities have been affected by COVID-19 in the past six months, and visited the London Bridge Job Centre, the East London Mosque, and London Muslim Centre in Whitechapel, and Beigel Bake Bakery in Brick Lane to gain more insight. For the day’s engagements, Kate wore a red floral tea dress with beige pumps, a floral face mask, and Missoma earrings — more details ahead. Catherine thoughtfully rewore her Calla Dress by Beulah London (£550) for the day’s engagements, which is made of 100 percent silk in an A-line fit and has a contrasting white cotton c...
I spend a lot of my time testing makeup and the large boxes of products underneath my bed exemplify just how vast my collection is. But, when it comes to my own makeup bag, I only use a handful of staples. The core components of my look haven’t really changed from my early days of makeup experimenting. The primary difference is that I’ve had significant product upgrades since then. One of these is liquid eyeliner. I studied fashion and beauty history and exclusively wore vintage clothing for a long time, so my affection for winged eyeliner has been a mainstay. I was captivated by the doe-eyed actresses in 1950s and 60s films and their ever-so-precise feline flicks. My first foray into the world of eyeliner came courtesy of a chunky kohl eyeliner I picked up at in a local market...
More recently, however, I found that the majority of the newer mascaras are genuinely great and the amount of so-so formulas in my collection has started to dwindle. And this year, there have been more mascara launches than I can count on my hands. From seriously amped-up volume to curl-holding abilities like no other, the claims that they carry mean business. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that my top five favourite mascaras ever made all came out in 2020. It seems that suddenly, clumpy, irritating formulas just stopped existing. Instead, what we have are new-gen mascaras with almost unbelievably good results. But with so many formulas out there, how are we supposed to separate the wheat from the chaff? Well my beauty-loving friends, luckily you have me, a mascara hoarder that has tried...

This season, it comes in the form of Bottega Veneta’s thigh-high boot. High-shine, skintight and oh-so-chunky, this is not one for the fashion fainthearted.

Kate Middleton and Prince William had a busy day today, making me feel just a tad embarrassed about still being in pajamas at 3 p.m. The duo visited the London Bridge JobCentre, Brick Lane Bakery, and the East London Mosque to meet with Brits and discuss the impacts of the pandemic on their lives. Ever the good role models, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge both wore masks and socially distanced for their visits. As we’ve said before, there’s no reason not to have a little fun with face masks, and Kate Middleton is inspiring me to coordinate my mask with earrings in a similar shade. She wore the same Amaia Cotton Face Mask in Pepper Liberty ($19) that she wore last month, but this time she found the perfect pink jewelry item to...

This Morning‘s Holly Willoughby might not be considered a directional style icon. Like most mainstream television personalities, she tends to favour cheery items with mass appeal rather than trend-led fashion buys. However, ever since she wore a long-sleeved rainbow dress by London Fashion Week designer Ashish a couple of years ago, editors have been paying closer attention to what she wears in her daily outfit posts. Right now, we’re all about Holly’s new back-to-work wardrobe. After the summer off This Morning duties, she’s back on our screens and is already nailing her outfits. So what is her stylist Angie Smith’s tips for making the most out of a high-street budget? “I think that certain brands excel in specific styles. For example, if I need a...
In my mind, the autumn months have always lent themselves to the minimalist aesthetic, and while this may sound counterintuitive (after all, it’s a season defined by an abundance of layering, rather than the simplicity of a summer dress), it’s the perfect time to embrace the “less is more” mantra. Some of the most beautiful outfits I’ve ever seen have been comprised of just tailored trousers, brogues and a chunky cashmere knit. Perhaps the beauty lies in the simple textural contrasts that the season can offer. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be.

I get it—secondhand and vintage shopping isn’t for everyone but for me is a real treat. The bargains I’ve found: from a £15 Aquascutum jacket to a £110 classic Burberry trench coat, as well as an embroidered cardigan French influencer and founder of Rouje, Jeanne Damas complimented me on. Not to mention the pieces of vintage sportswear I wear religiously and a checked shirt I bought for £3 from the Salvation Army charity shop, which I still wear 11 years on. Outside of COVD times, I genuinely loved nothing more than browsing my favourite retro clothing shops. However, right now, I have to settle for the digital options available—thankfully they are plentiful. From Etsy to eBay as well as Vestiaire Collective and Oxfam’s online store, there are many way...
There is a particular thrill that comes with partaking in the digital equivalent of window shopping or simply browsing through an online array of items you adore but may not realistically be able to afford. I experience this thrill each time I log on to Net-a-Porter and peruse pages of new-in Bottega Veneta bags that retail for a small fortune or inspect in great detail the intricate construction of Gucci’s latest masterpieces. And while Net-a-Porter’s extensive collection may seem as if it’s filled solely with aspirational luxury designer items with price tags in the thousands, the e-commerce platform actually carries several contemporary brands that are far more attainable. From instantly recognizable cult labels like Ganni, Rixo and Stin...
Congrats to newlyweds Lily Allen and David Harbour who tied the knot in vintage style at a Las Vegas chapel earlier this week. And by the way, did you get a look at that beautiful wedding ring? Allen shared a closeup photo of her wedding manicure on Instagram stories this morning, but we couldn’t look away from her elegant diamond solitaire engagement ring and pavé wedding band, which complements the singer’s vintage aesthetic perfectly. Allen’s engagement ring is a classic solitaire style centering on a round-cut diamond with a four double-claw setting on a narrow diamond pavé band, accompanied by a simple diamond pavé wedding band. The timeless solitaire style continues to be the most sought-after engagement ring design since its creation by Tiffany & Co in 1886. Ex...
The year was 2000, and much like 2020, the world experienced a glitch in the matrix. Some of us welcomed the new millennium with optimism, others thought it could have been the end of the world, but we all tried calming our fears by diving deeper into technology — sound familiar? It makes a lot of sense why the Y2K fashion trend is having a renaissance, and while we won’t be styling our dresses over jeans anytime soon, we’re loving the pink, sparkly outfits all over our Instagram feeds. If you’re curious about what the Y2K aesthetic is all about and how to style it like a pro, we have all the details ahead. Y2K outfits feature heavily in some of our favourite films, television series, and music videos of the late ’90s and early ’00s. Films like Clueless and Me...
