45 Under-£100 Christmas Gifts That Look Really Thoughtful
The word “affordable” means different things to different people. This is something we’re acutely aware of right now, especially when, on the run-up to Christmas, shopping is not only unavoidable but is also actively encouraged. Of course, advising you on what to buy is what we do best, and while we’re certain you want to mark the occasion by treating your nearest and dearest to something special, the last thing we want you to do is to blow your budget in the process. As such, we’ve rounded up an edit of affordable Christmas gifts that start at a frugal £11, peaking at the £100 mark. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be. It begins with giving you back power. Get to meet B...
Margot Robbie Wore a Hair Bow on the Red Carpet So I Found an £9 Amazon Dupe
Even though it pains me to say it, Margot Robbie‘s Chanel-filled wardrobe is not available for Prime shipping on Amazon. I hate to burst your bubble. However, one very pretty accessory that she just wore on the red carpet is absolutely accessible to the masses: Her black hair bow. For a BAFTA event in London last week, Robbie’s hairstylist Bryce Scarlett gave her a half-up, half-down look and secured the back with an adorable bow. I immediately went to Amazon to find an affordable dupe and ended up buying one straight away. The perfect festive accessory, a black hair bow can instantly elevate a knitwear look, be paired with mini dress and tights or can add a pretty touch to a jeans-and-blazer outfit. Pick from satin, velvet or tulle as well as betw...
If There’s a Skirt to Wear for Absolutely Any Occasion, It’s This One
If you’re one of these people who are dedicated to a seasonal wardrobe switch (or you just do it for the space), you’ll know that some items are always destined to hop in and out of vacuum bags. Cosy cashmere jumpers, for example, will be packed away as spring/summer approaches, and linen shirts will be ready to emerge. But some pieces will always stay on the rail. And the humble midi skirt is one of these few versatile love-all-year styles that can be layered or stripped back depending on the season. With Y2K trends—including bandeau tops, wide-leg jeans and double denim—making a resurgence this year, it’s no surprise mini and maxi skirts are also appearing once again. But when it comes to skirts that are universally flattering, it’s always all about the midi. Whether you o...
I Just Spent Hours Trying On Winter Shoes in M&S—Here Are the 10 I Loved Most
It is a widely discussed fact in the Who What Wear group chat that M&S shoes are some of the best on the market. Last week, when I shared that I was planning on popping in to try on a load of its latest shoes (all in the name of journalistic research), it was met with exclaims and admissions of how highly my fellow editors rate the high-street hero’s footwear. “I have such a soft spot for M&S shoes” and “the comfort insoles are the one” are just a couple of examples. But I too consider myself a loyal fan, and some of my longest-lasting, most-loved pairs have been bought there in the past. In fact, I still wear a pair of burgundy leather knee-high boots that I bought from the store roughly five years ago. “But exactly why are...
7 Easy Ways to Style a Puffer Coat This Winter
The humble puffer coat has come a long way since its original outdoor sports iterations. Designers, editors and influencers will all agree that we’re very much in the era of the fashionable puffer coat. And 2022 has seen this item of clothing gain even more popularity. But, as these jackets tend to cover us completely (especially if you have one of those head-to-toe versions), they can leave you feeling like it’s pointless to wear anything exciting underneath. I’m here to tell you that that’s actually not the case. I had a look at how some of my favourite Instagrammers have been wearing theirs and found some genuinely fun and exciting winter outfits that will make you love wearing your duvet coat on repeat. There’s the class...
14 Cult Designer Buys You’re Going to See Everywhere in 2023
A pretty important part of being a fashion editor is being able to predict what will be big before, well, it gets big. And how did we predict correctly? Well, it’s a lot more than just guesswork or relying on our personal taste. We spend a huge amount of time analysing the runways—my most-recent efforts have been chronicled into our overarching spring/summer 2023 fashion trend report, should you fancy a read—and generally soaking up everything that’s trending in the industry at that time. Often, we’ll also seek out insights from brands, buyers and analysts to reinforce our findings. Today, I’ve done all three to bring you a comprehensive list of the very best designer buys 2023 has to offer. Of course, cult buys and new brands can emer...
I Consider Myself an Airport-Outfit Expert—These 4 Looks Are Comfy and Chic
With holiday travel just around the corner, it’s a great time to take your airport outfits to the next level. I mean, what’s worse than heading home for the holidays and running into an old friend in an airport outfit that’s just so-so? Mastering the perfect travel look is easier than you think. The number one thing on my list is being comfortable, especially if I’m traveling a far distance. I used to swear by a sweatsuit and sneakers as my go-to travel look, and while I do still love a good matching set, I thought it was time to elevate my airport looks just slightly. As I said before, comfort is key, but adding a pair of jeans or cargo pants takes things up a notch. I have been eyeing four outfit formulas that are comfortable and still have a bit of style. Keep s...
Celebrities Swear By This Dress Brand—15 Styles That Stopped Me in My Tracks
Over the last few years, The Vampire’s Wife has been the fashion savvy celeb’s go-to for red carpet glamour, and we have no doubt it will remain so for many years to come. But, we are always excited to discover new names and we might’ve just discovered a new party brand to fall in love with. We’ve lost count of the number of Saloni bow and heart-embellished dresses that we’ve seen both on Instagram and in A-list parties over the last 12 months, and we’re delighted that they’re back again for winter 2022. Coming in a luxe velvet finish and with chic long sleeves, they’re a completely different look from the ‘naked dresses’ that have been reigning supreme this year.

Kate Middleton Brings Back These 5 Trends Every Winter
Every time we get a sighting of Kate Middleton we also gain plenty of outfit inspiration. With winter well and truly here, you can expect to see a lot of stellar winter outfits very soon. However, stellar doesn’t have to translate as brand new. Since the Princess of Wales tends to stick to her signature personal style and rely upon classic wardrobe staples she already owns, we have a feeling she’ll be bringing back all of her favourite trends from seasons past. In fact, today she stepped out in a checked pleated midi dress that we’ve seen before. Another good example? She already resurrected an old, reliable pair of See by Chloé lace-up boots for a function this month—further proof that decent footwear choices do last. She also brings ba...
I’m Obsessed With These 19 Wow Pieces From River Island
A question that often comes up in the Who What Wear office is, “Are you more of a shoe person or a bag person?” It’s like picking between sweet and savoury or discovering you’re left or right handed. In other words, it’s almost innate. Some rare breeds (myself included) like both shoes and bags equally. I’ve always styled my outfits around my shoes, and I can easily be persuaded into a night out not by the promise of a cocktail but by the sparkle of a new rhinestone handbag. I think this time of year is the best for shoes and handbags. There’s the back-to-school vibe of early autumn, which is a great opportunity to refresh your work wardrobe. (What boots do I have my eye on? Which bag will fit my laptop? Are loafers comfortable commuting shoes?) An...
I’ve Assembled 6 Expensive-Looking Festive Outfits Entirely From M&S
We’re nearing the end of 2022, which means our calendars are filling up with Christmas bashes, candlelit get-togethers and festive dinner parties. Pass the mulled wine, please. I don’t know about you, but I consider partywear to be one of the most exciting fashion categories. It’s always nice to depart from one’s everyday uniform (for me, that’s jeans and a jumper) to get a little more dressed up. That being said, I’m often reluctant to spend a lot of money on going-out attire; I prefer to invest in items I’ll wear regularly, and I always keep to a strict budget on the partywear front to ensure I don’t overspend. This is what led me to Marks and Spencer‘s website, where I was pleasantly surprised by the wealth of stylish pieces on offer...
