We’re Shopping Editors With Very Long NET-A-PORTER Wish Lists—Here Are Our Faves
We don’t want to alarm you, but it’s only a matter of weeks until Christmas rolls around. Of course, you’ve no doubt been preparing for this since August, right? (Well no, actually, we haven’t either.) Given the number of parties, dinners and Christmas ads on TV, it’s officially the start of the festive season, and we’re ready to welcome it with open arms. The colder days and darker nights have been the excuses we needed to slip into cosy mohair knits and knee-high boots, and thanks to the recent drop of autumn and winter collections, we’ve been treated to a particularly stylish season thus far. But when it comes to preparing for the big day, there’s more than just our current wardrobes to think about. So if you’re frantically searching...
I Can’t Stop Looking at Princess Diana’s Most Epic Party Outfits
Countless exhibitions, a plethora of books, and many, many a Who What Wear UK article all serve as proof that the world has an infatuation with Princess Diana’s style. This year, our obsession reaches yet another peak thanks to Elizabeth Debicki’s spot-on portrayal of the beloved icon in the most recent season of The Crown. It’s clear, from the moment Diana stepped into the royal spotlight that her looks would be put under the sartorial microscope, however, the fascination still remains today. Looking back, it’s fair to say that she was one of the most progressive dressers of her time (not to mention lineage). You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

29 Luxury Winter Accessories That Are Actually Worth the Money
Winter accessories are highly likely to be worn over and over, so spending a little more on them could be justified. And a Loewe scarf costs a whole lot less than a Loewe sweater but makes just as much of an impact, so here we are with a roundup of lust-worthy luxury winter accessories for your consideration. If you’re thinking that you’d like to delay planning for winter as much as possible, we completely get it. But someday soon, you’re going to wake up, and the ground will be covered with snow, and those Prada gloves you were thinking about ordering won’t arrive until approximately five business days later. So instead of letting that Prada predicament happen to you, why not think ahead? We took a long, hard look at the internet...
I Just Tried This Year’s Biggest Lip Trend—These Are My Honest Thoughts
Lip oils are designed to nourish and hydrate lips, so they’re perfect if you’re prone to dry, chapped lips. From a skincare perspective, they’re basically like a serum for your lips, but they also happen to make lips look plump and glossy in the process. Most are formulated with moisture-replenishing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and plant-based oils, which help to keep lips smooth and soft and prevent them from getting cracked or flaky. If you find that regular cream or liquid lipsticks leave your lips feeling tight and dry, then a lip oil can be a great alternative, especially as many of them are tinted. They tend to leave a much glossier, shinier finish than a lipstick, but unlike lip gloss, they don’t feel heavy or leave a sticky residue. You Deserve to Make Money Even...
Dear Santa, Here Are the 17 & Other Stories Pieces on My Dream Wish List
Between statement accessories, luxurious beauty buys, fluffy knits and unforgettable dresses, there’s a lot to love from the high-street hero right now, and this year’s holiday shop is the ideal mix of opulent and cosy pieces, perfect for generously gifting your loved ones and, of course, yourself. While I always come back to & Other Stories for its fashion-forward dresses (I still haven’t stopped thinking about that A.W.A.K.E collaboration), I also have a soft spot for a certain crystal-embellished knit, so my most difficult decision this Christmas is whether to ask for the red or black iteration, if not both. If you’re compiling a list of your own or looking for some gifting ideas, I’ve rounded up some of my favourite pieces from & Other Stories̵...

Experts Vouch For This Tool That Sculpts, Lifts, and Firms, and It’s Under £10
Chen outlined some steps to take so you can make sure you’re using your tool effectively: 1. Always start with a clean face. 2. Before doing gua sha, you want to make sure to prep your skin with something emollient like a face oil or a balm. You also want to apply an oil that’s silky and doesn’t absorb right away, like Pink Moon’s Over the Moon Gua Sha Facial Oil, or you might tug your skin. 3. Keep the stone as flat and close to the skin as possible. Keep it at a 15-degree angle so you don’t create unnecessary friction or tug your skin. 4. If you have an active acne breakout, just do gua sha on the chest and neck. This will help to increase circulation and decrease inflammation. 5. Always use slow strokes on the neck and face, and use upward and outward ...

I Started Using a Hair Serum, and My Hair Has Never Looked Better
“The chemistry behind serums means that they can be highly concentrated to deliver very specific benefits,” explains Kuldeep Knox, founder of Chāmpo haircare. “Because they are usually composed of very small molecules, they are readily absorbed by hair, which means you can use less and get more value for money. They can be easily formulated to deliver a wide range of results, such as adding volume, managing frizz, and protecting against heat or pollution damage.” With so many fantastic hair serums on the market, however, it’s easy to get overwhelmed when trying to find the perfect match. That’s why I’ve created the ultimate edit of hair serums for every hair type and concern. Happy hair incoming. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are loo...
The 7 Boot Trends Everyone Is Eyeing Up for Winter
Boot season used to be confined to the winter months, but not anymore. Fashion types have cemented boots as a year-round shoe staple, from cowboy boots to knee-highs worn with mini hemlines. Of course, this isn’t news to Brit girls—our changeable weather (even in the height of summer) means that we keep our boots within arm’s reach at all times. More brands than ever showcased boots in fresh and inspiring ways in their summer collections for 2022, and a lot of those themes have continued through to the autumn/winter collections as well. So as we start to look forward to the season ahead, we thought it would be a good idea to revisit our favourite 2022 boot trends, as witnessed on the runway.
