Literally Every Editor I Know Wears This £55 Layering Top When It’s Cold Outside
As much as we hoped we could hold onto Autumn days, it’s clear that there’s no stopping the arrival of cooler weather. As someone that’s always cold, I know that as soon as we drop a degree, I’ll be layering up. So naturally, I’ve been spending the last few days working out how I can stay cosy and warm, all the while maintaining a stylish aesthetic. Impossible? I initially thought so. Then, I stumbled across a key find from Arket, which will help me achieve this. Did you know that merino wool helps keep you warm by insulating instead of trapping heat? Merino wool fibres have a natural crimp, which allows them to trap dead air and act as an insulator—and a shield against the cold. This, in turn, helps keep your body at a more even and warmer temperatu...

I’m a Beauty Editor With Expensive Taste, But I Still Buy These Cheap Products
The thing is, while I’m more than willing to invest and splash out on efficacious skincare, I’m less willing to on bath and body products. I want my skincare to do the hard graft, whereas I just want my body products to smell nice and feel luxurious to use, without the huge price tag. Because at the end of the day, our bath products mostly end up down the drain, so I like to spend less money here. My happy middle-ground is choosing something which will still look chic in my bathroom, but make far less of a dent in my bank account than some of the more premium brands. One brand has totally nailed this balance, and that is & Other Stories. If you’ve spotted the products in store, you’ll know that the products still look pretty and luxe, and while not as cheap...

London Girls All Agree: This Is the Go-To Brand for Great Winter Boots
When the temperature suddenly drops in London, there’s only one choice of footwear I’m interested in: boots. People in London will do their very best to prolong their time in ballet pumps and mules, but once winter is here, the truly sensible choice of shoe has to be the boot in all its forms. My love affair with a great pair of winter boots stems from the ability to dress them up or down for any occasion. (The only place you won’t find me wearing knee-high boots in December is the gym, and that’s only because this month is an exercise-free period.) When it comes to elevated footwear, Russell & Bromley needs no introduction. Whilst you may find its stores on many high streets throughout the UK, its offering is hardly of a high-street status but rather ...
London Has Spoken—These 8 Fashion Trends Will Be Big News in 2023
When it comes to style, London is one of the most dialled-in cities in the world. A cross between the polish of Paris, the edginess of New York, and the playfulness of Milan, London is perhaps the most eclectic of all the major fashion locales; you never quite know what outfits you’ll see or which trends you’ll spot. This is true of the runway as well as the street, the latter of which, I’d argue, is where you’ll find the most inspiration. I now work and live remotely (in the countryside, no less), so I rely on the outfits I see coming out of the capital to inform not only my own wares but also what I choose to share with you here, on Who What Wear. Still, being on the peripheral is helpful, as it allows me to take a more nuanced look at the London fashion tren...
I’m Getting Married Next Year, So I Tried On All of the Best Modern Bridal Looks
After working in fashion for the last 7 years, I’d like to think that I’m a confident dresser. By now I know my style, my shape, and the trends that are worth investing in, but even as a seasoned fashion editor, the one outfit that caused me the most deliberation was my wedding day outfit. In the year that gave us Nicola Peltz’ square necked gown and Kourtney Kardashian’s corset mini, there are more options than ever when it comes to wedding dress styles. But the pressure to find ‘the one’ is almost as overwhelming as planning the day itself. There is an unspoken rule that whatever you wear has to tick several boxes–most commonly, will it make the groom cry? Will it ‘suit’ the venue? Will it still look as good in photos in 30 years ...
