Not All Dresses and Jackets Go Together, But These 8 Timeless Combinations Work
Summer might be close to becoming a distant memory, but we’re not forgoing dresses just yet (if at all). With temperatures swiftly plummeting, however, we recommend wearing yours with one item in particular: a jacket. You might not think it, but dresses and jackets are notoriously difficult to style together. With varying lengths, it doesn’t take much (perhaps an inch in either direction) to throw off your look. Fret not, though, for we’ve found eight foolproof jackets to go with dresses. Whether your style errs on the casual side or you prefer a more polished way of dressing, our fashion friends have your next dress-and-jacket outfit sorted. So what are you waiting for? Give your jeans and jumpers a break, and keep scrolling to see and shop our favourite jackets to ...
The Autumn Microtrends Putting Smiles on Our Faces This September
Microtrend is a somewhat slippery fashion term that can be translated in myriad ways. My issue with it is that, historically, it has been just another way of describing those flash-in-the-pan trends that are here today and gone tomorrow. Not exactly the most sustainable attitude towards dressing. However, I’ve been thinking about it, and I’ve come up with a new definition for the microtrend for the season ahead: Essentially, they’re the sort of items that catch your eye on Instagram, such as a chic silhouette, unusual print or eye-catching colour. They don’t typically fit within the broad categorisation of seasonal trends. Rather, they speak to you personally and, more often than not, put a smile on yo...
The 11 Pieces From & Other Stories That Are Trending This Month
& Other Stories has been an influencer favourite for quite some time. These days, it’s never a surprise when I scroll through Instagram and tap a photo only to learn the brand has been tagged, yet again, by a woman whose style I admire. From their classic tailored pieces to casual everyday wear and timeless midi dresses, the beloved brand is responsible for creating elevated pieces you know will stand the test of time. Not only staying in your wardrobe to seasons to come but also remaining high on your weekly rotation. This month in particular, we’ve seen quite a few trending & Other Stories pieces on the feeds of some incredibly chic individuals, proving once again that Insta-worthy style can be completely attainable. From Amy Julli...
Alexa Chung Just Wore the Perfect Autumn Outfit Formula
It is often said that there is style in simplicity. And nothing epitomises that more than when someone puts together an outfit consisting solely of timeless wardrobe staples yet somehow manages to make it look modern and contemporary. Alexa Chung did just that recently, proving there’s no reason your favourite autumn outfits have to be overly complicated. Chung uploaded an image of herself to Instagram wearing a camel cardigan and straight-leg blue jeans paired with black ballet flats, all of which are items that likely already live in the closets of women everywhere, meaning this look could very easily be emulated. While each component of her outfit is a wardrobe staple in its own right, here, the look maintains its ...
I’m Convinced This Is Going to Be Autumn’s Biggest Beauty Trend
Lately, all of my favourite influencers seem to have collectively decided that blue eye makeup is very much a thing again. So much so I spy several shots of blue eyes every scrolling session, and this week, it appears to be gaining even more traction. Much to my surprise, I absolutely love it. Blue eye makeup, particularly when we’re talking about the eyeliner and mascara varieties, serves as a refreshing alternative to black and brown. Regardless of the colour of your irises, blue shades somehow work to make the whites of your eyes look even brighter and will enhance any colourful flexes in your iris to make them look more vibrant, too. What I love most about blue is the multitude of shades and tones it can come in. From classic navy to striking cobalt, th...
12 Autumn-Appropriate Outfits You Can Wear This Weekend
While it might technically still be summer, the weather this week is making me think forward to autumn. I am by no means ready to say goodbye to bare legs or weekend picnics in the park, but as a fashion editor, I’m always looking forward, and I am ready to say hello to some of these new collections. 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 over the next few months, and serve you in September and October also. We find that this time of year is when stock is switching over from linen dresses and sandals to knitwear and trench coats is the perfect moment to take a pause and really think about what is missing from your autumn wardrobe be...
10 Items I Never Regretted Buying for My Maternity Wardrobe
When people say that hindsight is a wonderful thing, I think they’re referring to maternity wardrobes. While I have a 2-year-old, so some time has passed since I was pregnant, I still remember agonising over what to wear and buying pieces that I couldn’t get much wear out of as my waistline expanded. (Sequin trousers, I’m looking at you.) I can tell you now with confidence that there are a few things you will probably regret buying when pregnant, and then there are pieces you’ll wear way beyond pregnancy. But my one rule is pretty simple when it comes to a maternity wardrobe: Try to find pieces you’ll be able to wear now and in the future sans bump. Also, it’s worth bearing in mind that while a knitted dress (or three) are very useful when...
The 25 Camel Coats All Your Friends Will Compliment You On
And we’re not alone in championing the iconic coat. Year in and year out, the savviest street style stars continue to choose the classic coat in favour of other standout options, confirming that this universally adored item remains the ultimate investment piece. There are many brands that specialise in this particular breed of expensive-looking outerwear—Max Mara, for example, are known for their many iterations on the camel coat. Meanwhile, on the high street, we’ve noticed some labels are especially good at creating them on a smaller budget: & Other Stories has become a secret little go-to for us every time we’re looking to replenish our outerwear selection.

The Vintage Pieces Set to Increase in Demand for Autumn/Winter 2020
As a second-hand shopper, I spend a disproportionate amount of time thinking about one question: When does something actually become vintage? I don’t think there’s an exact equation to it, but it has been fascinating watching the trends I grew up with in the ‘90s start to be repurposed and embraced by Gen Z. (Welcome back, chokers, chain belts and tank tops.) Perhaps there is a cyclical waiting period that sees fashion trends loop back around and finally become cool again after 15 or 20 years. It’s a mystery. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be. It begins with giving you back power.

I Tried Every Product From The Ordinary—These Are the Ones I’d Recommend
It was when I was singing the praises of a certain £6 product that had converted me to eye creams that I took the time to actually take a proper look at my bathroom beauty stash. Upon which I realised just how many other products from the same brand had a permanent home in my skincare rotation. As I’ve mentioned previously, The Ordinary is an affordable beauty brand offering up high-performance formulations with ingredients at their core. Ask any beauty junkie or skincare fanatic about them and chances are they’ll have a couple of products in their bathroom cabinets. Admittedly, if you aren’t already clued about the ingredients you should be putting on your face, The Ordinary can feel a little overwhelming at first. But with a little research into your skin conc...
7 Ways Celebrities Are Styling 2020’s Most Important Accessory
While no one could have ever predicted it, one of the most important accessories of 2020 has undoubtedly become the face mask. Now mandatory in stores and on public transport, “wallet, keys, phone, facemask” is the new mantra we say to ourselves each day before leaving the house. The item has become ubiquitous and is set to remain an important addition to our outfits for the foreseeable future. From Tracee Ellis Ross to Emily Ratajkowski, celebrities are, of course, also adding face masks to their daily routines and outfits when running errands or leaving the house. When it comes to styling the item, some celebs are choosing to match their looks to their masks—see Zoë Kravitz’s tonal, all-black ensemble—while others are using masks as an excuse to experiment wi...
