6 Trending Arket Items That Come With The Influencer Tick Of Approval
As far as high-street labels go, there are few brands that have as many fashionable fans as Arket. Relied upon for classic styles and minimalist staples, the brand’s offering feels extremely elevated which is likely why so many influencers and editors turn to Arket for affordable closet essentials. Recently we’ve been keeping a running tally of all the chic Arket staples the style set has been loving and from maxi dresses to sleeveless shirts, there are more than a few pieces on the brand’s website that have been given the influencer tick-of-approval. Alexis Foreman is an advocate of the brand’s Cotton Voile Slip Dress, while Marisa Martins owns a few Arket button-down shirts, not to mention several different influencers have been seen sporting the brand...
20 Of The Best Summer Jackets for Cloudy Grey Days
Unfortunately, in the UK, summer does not necessarily equal great weather. And while we may love to sport our linen mini dresses and floral-laden midis, often we are also required to have an outfit backup plan. I know jackets may not necessarily be the item on the top of your wish-list during the summer months, but let me tell you, for practicality purposes they could be the most important items you own. From blazers to trenches and tailored denim, there are several trans-seasonal jacket options around that are optimal for the grey summer days yet will also act as ideal outerwear through most of autumn. With linen fabrics to other lightweight alternatives, seasonally-appropriate summer jackets are available in an array of different styles spanning casual and dres...
25 Epic Summer Buys That Are Still in Stock in the Net-a-Porter Sale
The Net-a-Porter summer sale is now in full swing, with many of pieces now reduced up to 70%. Trust us when we say there’s so much good stuff to sift through this year, but like any sale clicking through hundreds of pages of products can be a little overwhelming. This is where we come in. Plenty of cult buys have already been snapped up, but worry not, because there’s plenty of goodness left to unearth. The sales are always a chance to buy a little bit better than you would normally, so we recommend before you dive straight in thinking what is missing in your wardrobe, what would be really worth upgrading, and if you have any big events to forward plan for. For example, these sales are a great opportunity to buy wedding guest dresses for all the rescheduled ...
Celebs Love This Skincare Brand, and It’s My Secret to Glowing Skin Too
If there is one thing I have learned in my time as a beauty editor, it is this: A great formula does not a successful beauty product make. It’s painful to admit, but believe me when I say that the secret to a successful beauty launch is rarely down to whether or not the product actually works. Once upon a time, the success of a beauty launch was dependent on huge advertising budgets and maybe just a little bit on how good the formula was. Now, however, things are even shallower. In a world where social media runs the game, aesthetics come first, and it is with that shift that my job as a beauty editor has also changed. Whereas it was once the role of a beauty editor to spread the news and wax lyrical about new launches, now with the power of social media, the job of pr...

Fashion Girls Think These Are the Ultimate 6 Summer Staples
As we’ve been spending time cleaning out our wardrobesover the last few months, we’ve gone over a smattering of pieces—from basics to jeans—that we’re thinking of getting rid of in favour of other items. Well, today we’re going to focus on the summer items we potentially want to ditch as we head into those warmer-weather months. Below you’ll uncover a range of summer pieces our fashion editors will never remove from their wardrobes given their versatile and inherently chic nature. Alternatively, you’ll also spot a selection of items our team members aren’t as into at the moment. Of course, all of this is based on personal preference—and you should always wear whatever you love, no matter what anyone says. With all that in mind, keep scrolling to check out the item...
The Unlikely Bikini Trend to Try If You Have Small Boobs
It was only earlier this year that I stumbled across what I now call the holy grail of swimwear for small boobs, and that’s the underwired, unpadded bikini. Of course, it all started when I spotted Lucy Williams in a tangerine-coloured two-piece from Peony. Considering that underwiring had long been mentally filed away under “do not touch with a barge pole,” I couldn’t get over how flattering it looked—it felt like an altogether chicer, natural-shape enhancing and functional option within the bikini world. Yep, I was well and truly influenced. I nabbed the same style in the Net-a-Porter sale and haven’t looked back since. Also, it’s worth noting that many of this summer’s underwire bikini tops come with either ’8...
The Easiest Way To Make Your Summer Staples Look Expensive This Summer
Spotting the recurring themes in high street pieces that achieve the illusive ‘expensive-looking‘ status is a favourite pastime of mine (niche, but useful for my job). What strange alchemy has to occur to ensure that something affordable appears high-end? I wonder. What shapes, colours and fits have to combine to create an item that rivals big name designers? Well, as you can imagine, the answer isn’t straight forward. It’s almost impossible to apply a universal rule that stands forevermore, however each season there tends to be particular motifs, be it a silhouette or fabric, that particularly stand out to me. This season? It has to be pleated fabric. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagin...

I Have 8 Weddings Next Year and Found so Many Great On-Sale Dresses to Wear
Anytime I add something to my basket this month I have to remind myself that I’m spending most of my time in jeans and a T-Shirt working from home, and don’t have the need for another summer midi dress. Then the summer sales hit and I started thinking forward to the wedding invitations that are stacking up for 2021—I currently have eight pencilled in for next year and so . Due to cancelled weddings and events this year, it’s not surprising that the summer sales are filled with dresses and party accessories that would usually be low in stock at this time of year. I’ve trawled through Net-a-Porter, Harvey Nichols and more to find some of the best designer discounts if you want to be prepared for next year. I would never be able to typically afford ...
This Simple Pairing Will Spice Up Your Style by 100%
We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again—often, it’s the littlest things that can make the biggest impact, and nothing has the power to overhaul your look quite like how you choose to decorate your nails and the jewellery you pair with them. While many of us will inadvertently adopt style signatures – be it a red lip, flicked eyeliner, or a penchant for a specific colour of dress – we believe that nails and jewellery present perhaps one of the coolest opportunities to put your personality across. For example, minimalists may opt for thin, layered rings, which they partner with a sleek taupe polish, while maximalists might choose bold hues and OTT nail art, accompanied by chunky knuckledusters. And seeing as more and more of us have been trying our (shak...
Summer Is Here—These Are the Best Sun Creams for Every Occasion
The truth is making sure that you are applying the correct sun cream in the correct way is absolutely crucial in ensuring sun safety. “From March to October, UV levels are at their highest. I would recommend applying sunscreen to any exposed skin 15 minutes before you head outdoors,” advises consultant dermatologist Justine Kluk. “It is possible to burn, tan and sustain sun damage that increases your risks of skin cancer and premature ageing from just 15 minutes of casual sun exposure without the right protection.” And this is where the issue lies. In reality, very few people do apply sun cream correctly, and thus expose themselves to damage. “Many people make the mistake of thinking that their makeup contains SPF, so they don’t need to wear a separate sun protection product, but...
