We Asked the Experts—These Are the Defining Interior Trends of 2023
I’ve sought insight from a handful of experts to find out the interior trends for 2023 that really matter. Although each hails from different remits of the world of interiors, they share an overall outlook and consensus. “I think that much of the design trends for 2023 will be based on longevity and function, focussed less on ‘what’s in’ and more on ‘what’s right for my family and my home, with lots of people looking to nature, the environmental impact of design, and the mood and atmosphere their decisions create,” says interior designer and expert Toby Perryman-Payne. The trends highlighted undoubtedly have staying power; our desire to host with pride after being denied the opportunity to do so over the past few years co...
Margot Robbie and Her 65-Year-Old Mum Look Like Twins on the Red Carpet
Margot Robbie just turned the red carpet into the sweetest mother-daughter date night. While promoting her new movie, Babylon, in Los Angeles, Robbie posed with her mom, Sarie Kessler, and the resemblance between the two is certainly striking. Not only do they look like twins, but they were also on the same style page in coordinating black dresses. Specifically, Robbie wore an Alaïa dress with Calzedonia 20 Denier Ultra Comfort Sheer Tights, which you can get your hands on for £7. In other Robbie news, the very first trailer for her movie Barbie, directed by Greta Gerwig, just dropped today, and we can’t stop thinking about it. These new photos will have to tide us over until the July 2023, release date. In the meantime, scroll down ...

You Can Now Buy Zara Clothes at Cheaper Prices Thanks to Its New Pre-Owned Platform
For stylish, trend-led clothes at won’t-break-the-bank prices, few brands come close to Zara. Scrolling on the website has become one of our favourite hobbies, especially when looking for an affordable party dress or new winter coat, but the impact fashion brands have on the planet has weighed heavily, which is why the new pre-owned initiative by the retailer is a step in the right direction for making clothes last longer. With over 1.2 million tonnes of clothing ending up in landfill each year and clothes being worn on average just seven times before being discarded, it’s clear fashion is having a devastating effect on our planet. To help reduce the amount of textile waste and contribute to the circular economy, Zara’s pre-owned platform, found on the app and the website...

5 Pieces Worth Owning If You’re Going to Wear Leggings in 2023
Chic leggings. Yes, those two words that can go together. Leggings previously fell into the loungewear or gym kit categories exclusively, worn only for errand running in or for weekends hibernating at home, but I’m here to tell you that these hardworking heroes deserve a new lease of life this season. I’ll admit, they’re pretty much my favourite wardrobe staple right now, thanks to the myriad ways to dress them up or down. Plus, we all know how comfy they are! Wear them everywhere from a night out (see Camille and Marilyn for inspo) with heels or knee high boots and a sensational jacket. Or, use them as the base for the perfect weekend look, with cosy layers, chunky footwear and a coat. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Date...
32 Cosy Winter Buys From H&M, & Other Stories and Arket
Fresh new season drops are arriving from both the high street and designers, which means a whole host of new inspo and ideas for how we want to dress for this time of the year. There are three high-street brands, in particular, though, that we on the Who What Wear UK team always turn to first when it comes to cosy winter buys: Arket, & Other Stories and H&M. And needless to say, they have seriously impressed us this December. Key buys inevitably sell out further into the season, so now is the best time to snap them up, and there’s plenty here for you to choose from. We’re turning to the classics that can be easily layered up, such as blazers, knit dresses and jeans, as well as bookmarking the hero coats of the ...
25 Marks and Spencer Basics That Will Carry You Through Winter and Beyond
It’s been a tough few years for the Great British high street, with every month seeing different challenges. Yet behind the media coverage, Marks and Spencer (surely one of the longest-standing members of the affordable-fashion community) is continuing to do what it does best: deliver timeless, well-executed staples for the shopping public. When it comes to fashion, winter is always a tricky time of year as temperatures drop and warmth becomes a priority over style. Fill your wardrobe full of these good-quality, layerable basics, though, and you should be able to succeed at both throughout the entire season—and into the next as well. M&S, of course, has some of the best basics around and its online store is packed full of timeless ...
This “Dated” Product Actually Works Wonders on Thin Hair
“The best way to use a hair mousse is to really pump out a golf ball–size amount into the palm of your hands and then use your fingers to take small amounts and slowly rake it through the hair, starting at the ends and using the remaining amount of mousse to be scrunched into the roots,” says King. “If you have curly hair, I would do the same thing, but always scrunch into the hair. Do not rake through the hair because this can create frizz. So always scrunch into the hair, starting at the mid-lengths to ends and then ending the last amount scrunching at the roots.” The great thing about mousse is that it can work for all hair types and textures. “Mousse is really good because it encourages really defined curls or coils in type 3 and type 4 hair,” h...
People Can’t Believe My Gran is 83—Here’s What She Uses to Look 10 Years Younger
If there is one thing I’m hoping for, it’s that I’ve inherited some good skin genetics from my gran, Audrey. At 83, my family refer to her as glam-ma as opposed to grandma, as she always looks put together. Plus, people often say she looks far younger than her age would suggest, and I have to agree, I hope I look this lovely at her age. When I recently visited her for a cup of tea, we got talking about her beauty routine, and naturally, I wanted to know what skincare secrets she might that she could pass on. Going into beauty editor mode, I quizzed her on all things beauty and investigated her dressing table for the best products for mature skin, as well as her all-time favourites that she swears by.
