Mark My Words: These Cult-Favourite Coats Will Sell Out by Tomorrow Night
If you’re fast enough off the mark, tomorrow sees the latest drop of Charlotte Simone’s Insta-famous coats, which are arriving just in time for winter. You know the ones: retro in feel, recognisable in their fuzzy collars and cuffs, neat in fit (usually belted) and swishy in their skirts. The British designer’s vibrant and joyful outerwear has become the ultimate fashion pick-me-up during dark winter months—or any month in the UK, for that matter—for minimalists and maximalists alike.

I’m a Shopping Expert, and I’d Never Buy These Items in Sales
Love it or hate it, Black Friday week is here, and with it comes a slew of fashion brands trying to outbid each other in offering consumers the best discounts and deals. I understand if you’re someone who usually avoids these sales at all costs (maybe you’ve seen those apocalyptic scenes that grace the headlines every November), but with this year’s sales being predominantly digital, the landscape looks a little different. We might not have the heaving crowds that we used to, but we do have endless scrolling through pages upon pages of discounted products and the issues that come with online shopping, such as sizing and delivery. As someone who has spent many hours scouring the internet to find the crème de la crème of the online shopping market, I’ve picked up a fe...

Then, of course, our Brit style darlings were also out in force—bravo Alexa Chung and Laura Bailey. Scroll down to see what everyone from wore to the 2021 Fashion Awards.

Dua Lipa, Rochelle Humes, and More of the Best Dressed at the 2021 British Fashion Awards
Pop star Dua Lipa, presenter Maya Jama, and actor Gabrielle Union were some of the stars that walked the 2021 Fashion Awards red carpet. Hosted at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Monday, 29 Nov., this year’s event celebrates fashion at the intersection of entertainment and culture. Fashion designers, models, and industry insiders kicked off the festive season in slinky, cut-out dresses, luxe silk-satin gowns with corset bodices, strapless dresses with opera gloves, jacquard and jewel-covered suits. We’re especially loving the mermaid-hem gowns worn by Addison Rae, Munroe Bergdorf, and emerging models Deba Hekmat and Mona Tougaard. As the occasion is hosted by Billy Porter, we expect to see some truly dramatic outfits — and we weren’t disappointed by Porter’s cus...
Fleeces Are Having A Moment—and I’ve Found So Many Good Ones
I’m just going to go ahead and say it – I’ve bought a fleece. There I said it, and I can guarantee I’m not the only one who wants one right now. In fact, I’ve already seen so many fashion people wearing them. And I blame them entirely for making me see how much of a winter staple they are. Even though, they are undoubtably the Marmite of the winter jacket world. The fleece I’ve bought is from H&M, and this particular cream and navy iteration sold out three times before I managed to finally add it to my basket. I wanted it so much, I took my boyfriend to look for it in different H&M stores (to no avail), but he ended up buying one. So here we are, the couple with matching fleeces. And you know what? I’m not remotely mad about it be...
The Decision is Final–French Girls Have the Best Party Outfits
Sure, we all like to go to Paris for the candid standing in front of the Eiffel Tower snaps, and of course the pastries. But when we visit, we’re all about people watching to see what the ever-stylish French women are wearing. Luckily, we don’t always require a plane ticket to be able to do this, as Instagram brings us all the inspo we need. Although we always look to these women for their basics–we’re talking anything from flared jeans to fail-safe top and jeans outfits, it’s French girls’ party outfits we’re most interested in right now. And rightly so, considering brunches, dinner gatherings and after-dark soirées are filling up our diaries this year. So whether you look to Camille Charriere for the cool-girl way to wear vel...
I Swear by This One Product to Really Lift My Mood on Dark Winter Days
Since learning of SAD and the apparent role that light plays in its onset, I decided to invest in an SAD light. Before I get into my experiences with SAD lights, I would like to caveat that if you are struggling to cope with SAD, it is really important to book in with your GP. My own experience with SAD is mild and manageable, so I felt as though helping boost my daily exposure to light was worth a shot. The theory goes that investing in a lamp that simulates the sort of bright sunshine you might expect on a summer’s day can help trick your brain into reducing its melatonin production and boosting production of serotonin. Plus, there are also alarm clocks which mimic a natural sunrise (and sunset) to help get that circadian rhythm back on track. For the past two years, I have had an SAD la...
Logo Belts are Back–and These are the Designer Styles Everyone Is Wearing
It’s not an exaggeration to say that, thanks to the Gucci GG Belt, the logo belt has become one of the most ubiquitous accessories on social media. Unsurprisingly, over the last few years, more and more brands have been bringing out their own logoed iterations, and we’re pretty sure you’ll love them just as much as the iconic double Gs.

Trust Me—These Are the Cyber Monday Deals That Are Worth Knowing About
When it comes to shopping for clothes, shoes and accessories during Black Friday, you want to find classic pieces that have been slightly out of reach previously, or hard-working basics that are missing from your wardrobe (such as a new winter coat or ankle boots). I’d advise you only buy something that was already on your shopping list before it was on sale, check sizes carefully and don’t be tempted to buy something just because it’s in the sale. It’s all about considered, through-through purchases that won’t give you a pang of guilt when you see your bank statement in December. From high street staples to designer steals, keep scrolling to see what we’re loving in the Black Friday sales this year. You Deserve to Make Money Ev...

R.I.P. Virgil Abloh, Fashion Designer and Kanye West Collaborator Dead at 41
Fashion designer Virgil Abloh has died following a private two-year battle with cancer. He was 41. According to a statement released by Abloh’s family, he “valiantly battled a rare, aggressive form of cancer, cardiac angiosarcoma. He chose to endure his battle privately since his diagnosis in 2019, undergoing numerous challenging treatments, all while helming several significant institutions that span fashion, art, and culture.” Born in Rockford, Illinois, to Ghanaian immigrant parents, Abloh graduated from the University of Wisconsin–Madison with a Bachelor of Science degree in civil engineering, and later received his Master of Architecture at the Illinois Institute of Technology. While working at a Chicago print shop, Abloh met rapper Kanye West, which marked the beginning of a close fr...
