25 Elevated H&M Pieces That Make Up My Perfect Workwear Capsule
Believe me, I get it. After what felt like an uncharacteristically long Christmas and New Year break, the return to the 9 to 5 has felt particularly challenging. Summoning up the motivation to do the early starts and long commute is one thing, but choosing what to wear to work in the morning is a struggle in itself, and if you’re already lacking the enthusiasm for a day in the office, I can guarantee that pulling out the same old suit won’t give you any more joie de vivre, winter is already grey enough. That being said, I happen to like typical “workwear”. Tailored trousers, sharp blazers, crisp shirts and midi skirts make up a lot of my everyday capsule wardrobe already, but what keeps them fresh is how you choose to wear them. Small styling ch...
Rita Ora Remains Committed to Totally Sheer Dresses in her Latest See-Through Outfit
Rita Ora will not be adopting a winter wardrobe for January as the star continues to showcase her array of naked dresses. The singer stepped out at a Netflix party ahead of Tuesday’s Golden Globe Awards in LA wearing a completely sheer pink lace slip dress with just a pair or black briefs underneath and no bra. Ora attended the party with her partner, Taika Waititi, as she arrived wearing the see-through magenta dress that is the latest in her vast collection of sheer outfits. This time, she matched her black knickers with black barely-there heels and added oversized statement heart-shaped earrings, and a sparkly pewter clutch bag. Chloe Schlossmann was responsible for Ora’s tousled bun and created a fun take on a smokey eye, while Nails by Analysse chose a pearlescent glazed l...
The Boot Trends That Are Going to Be Big in 2023, According to Zara
You’d be hard-pressed to find someone (fashion fanatic or otherwise) who doesn’t have an item of clothing from Zara in their wardrobe, from royals to celebrities, influencers to editors. The Spanish retailer has developed a reputation for itself over the years for creating affordable, trend-led pieces and contemporary basics that can act as the cornerstone of any closet. Though, Zara’s mass-market appeal doesn’t end at clothing. The brand’s footwear is equally as coveted, and this winter, in particular, we’ve spotted quite a number of expensive-looking boots in its collection, many of which, we predict, will sell out in no time. (Sadly, these styles don’t often hang around for long.) You Deserve to Make Mone...
The 11 Affordable Skincare Brands That Actually Work
Up until a few years ago there was a major misconception that good quality skincare products had to be expensive. Some skincare experts say that expensive products are pricey for a reason, whereas others swear by the affordable dupes of skincare classics. The thing is, if you know a thing or two about product development, you’ll know expensive really doesn’t always equal effective. Often the factors that bump up product prices are things like marketing and distribution costs, clinical trials for new ingredients, fancy packaging, and long ingredient lists. This means that if a brand is prepared to cut down on a few of these costs – for example using minimal packaging, keeping ingredient lists small, and using ingredients that have already been tes...
11 Stylish Ways to Wear a Blazer With Jeans This Winter
When it comes to fail-safe outfit formulas, you just can’t beat a blazer with jeans.

7 Trouser Trends Celebs Are Swapping Their Skinny Jeans For
Skinny jeans are great and all, but if you find yourself feeling stuck in a skinny jean rut, this is the story for you. Come autumn and winter, it is more common than usual to repeat the standard outfit combination of a knit + jeans + boots + coat. Not that there is anything wrong with that look per se, but there is something liberating about stepping outside of your personal sartorial box and stepping into new winter trends, specifically trouser trends. To show you how cool you could look even sans your favourite pair of skinnies, we pulled the best celeb looks featuring some of winter’s hottest trouser trends. While some of the icons ahead might not have been worn in a wintry way, they’re the pant styles we want you to pay close at...
Kendall Jenner Wore the £55 Shoes That Are So Hyped Up for 2023
According to Kendall Jenner, you don’t need a fancy, feathered dress or crystal-covered heels to post an awe-worthy Instagram. In fact, slippers and sweatpants will more than cut it. The reality star-slash-model is the queen of high-low dressing; she looks just as chic in a downtime ensemble as she does in an avant-garde catwalk design. And often it’s her low-key looks that make it to the top of our style mood board. One especially covetable get-up we can’t help but come back to included a shearling, check-print vest, heather-grey sweatpants and a pair of £55 cloud shoes (that’s puffy shoes in regular speak) that are almost impossible to get your hands on. Specifically, Jenner wore The North Face’s best-sellin...
This “Boring” Coat Is the Key to Looking Low-Key Stylish Every Day
Is it just me, or is this season being dominated by grey coats? Between the sell-out COS style that every influencer managed to bag (which I, meanwhile, spent hours refreshing my browser for to no avail) to the slew of cosy, slate-shaded robe coats worn by Londoners and Parisiennes alike, there’s no doubt about it; grey coats are where it’s at this winter. My favourite trends are the ones that seem so simple, it’s surprising that they weren’t a thing all along, and the grey coat certainly falls into that category. Although all signs point to it being a classic addition to any coat collection, grey tones are often overlooked, particularly so when you compare them to the popularity of black, cream, or camel. Upon them becoming more commonplace, I actively ha...
It’s Official—Fashion People Are Obsessed With These 25 Basic Fashion Items
After all this, it’s clear to us that some basics are just better than others. Take Arket’s famous Hopsack blazer, for example—it’s a style the brand has sold for years now. I have it in multiple colours (as do many of my fellow editors and influencer pals) and people always compliment me on it, asking if it’s designer. Through Who What Wear articles alone we’ve sold almost 1,000 of them, and after trying endless styles (I’m a blazer girl, trust me), I stand by it being the best around. The same goes for Arket’s perfect white T-shirt (I buy these in bulk for fear of them discontinuing it). Other best-selling hero buys our research turned up, include H&M’s budget-friendly wide-leg trousers (we sold over 2,000 pairs of these last year alone), Totême’s iconic...

I’ve Done Makeup for Chanel for 17 Years—These Are the Products You Should Buy
Have you ever wondered what’s in a makeup artist’s makeup bag? Well, it’s safe to say that it’s probably a combination of eye shadows, eyeliners, eye brow pencils, mascaras, foundations, blushes, lipsticks, and bronzers. However, it really comes down to the brand and the quality of the makeup that’s the biggest difference in what a professional MUA has versus an everyday beauty lover. Kate Lee, a Chanel makeup artist, has been working alongside the brand for over 17 years. Over that time, she’s worked on the faces of some of the biggest names in Hollywood such as Anne Hathaway, Kaitlyn Dever, Emma Chamberlain, Charli D’Amelio, and other beloved celebrities to create jaw-dropping looks for award shows, television appearances, an...
My Totême Scarf Jacket Is the Best Thing I’ve Ever Bought—Here’s How I Wear It
As someone who thinks over every purchase she makes incredibly thoroughly—you definitely don’t want to tag along on my next Tesco shop—you can imagine the hours I spent deliberating over buying Totême’s scarf jacket. You know the one; the cover-up that’s dominated your social media for two winters now, and it’s appeal is showing no signs of waning. With its oversize silhouette, thick felted wool fabrication, contrast whip-stitched edging and chic, built-in scarf, it’s the equivalent of an Instagram-like honey trap, which is probably why so many influencers have invested in it. This, however, was something I was wary of—especially when it comes with a price tag that requires some consideration. After months—wait, make that a full year—o...
