These 8 Basics Are the Secret to Kendall Jenner’s Autumn Wardrobe
I’ll go ahead and say it: Kendall Jenner’s wardrobe is nothing if not versatile. One day the model might be at fashion week in the last It dress, and the next she’s dashing around the streets of New York in Gazelles, wide-leg jeans and a knit vest. Since she’s a fashion chameleon who clearly loves to experiment, it’s often just as fun for us to wait with bated breath for her next new look as it is for her to wear them. And as last week, Jenner was having a low-key week in Los Angeles with her very famous family, what better time to look back through some of her best recent outfits in anticipation of what she might wear next? Unexpectedly, the majority of Jenner’s most covetable looks are her ...

5 Winter Dress Trends Every Fashion Person Will Wear This Season
As the daily decision of going bare-legged and coat-free versus dusting off our trusty opaques and grabbing a cosy cover-up becomes ever more apparent (along with the contents of our handbag expanding to fit an umbrella, sunglasses and an extra emergency layer), it’s no surprise that we all feel slightly confused during the autumn/winter season. This seems to be the case with dresses, too. Can we still wear them? How do we wear them? And most importantly, which ones actually look good with tights? Now that our summer dresses are firmly in their vacuum bags, it’s time to think about the ones that will tick all the boxes. With my help, you can find a frock that’ll keep you feeling both chic and cosy during the chilly British wint...

Of course, upon returning home, I immediately began looking for these to add to my very own wardrobe.

So Many Influencers Say This Is Their Most-Worn Pair of Trousers
Agolde’s Leather-Blend Straight-Leg Pants are what we (and so many influencers) would call the perfect leather trousers— and we don’t use that word lightly. Firstly, they’re real leather so you get the durability and long-lasting quality, but they’re actually made from a recycled leather-blend which has a much lower carbon footprint than standard leathers— so much so that they’re included in Net-A-Porter’s sustainable and responsible ‘Net Sustain’ category. The shape itself is inspired by vintage jeans, and they sit at just the right point on the waist and ankle (with a nice crop which makes them work with so many different types of shoes). It’s not just Who What Wear editors that are obsessed— we’ve heard so many influencers raving about these trousers, and most importantly wearing ...
I’m Constantly Getting Compliments on My Hair Thanks to This Lazy-Girl Product
But actually, I sort of have it easy in comparison to others. You see, my hair is straight. My friends that have curls and coils are always reminding me that wash day could be a whole lot worse. Because really, straight hair is a whole lot quicker to wash and style that curly hair is. But I think there’s a product that helps us all out. It helps replenish curly styles with moisture for easier styling while also helping to reduce wash time for all—and it’s been staring us in the face for some time. Yep, I’m talking about leave-in conditioners. While my curly-haired friends have used leave-in conditioners for almost their whole lives to help nourish and hydrate their curls, it has never really occurred to me that replacing my usual ...
18 Affordable Anti-Ageing Skincare Products That Truly Work
If you ask me, great skincare shouldn’t have to come with an eye-watering price tag. Unfortunately, when it comes to anti-ageing products, more affordable brands often get written off as ineffective because of their overuse of the phrase “anti-ageing” in their ads. And sure, while so many affordable products that claim to rewind the clock do little more than give your skin a hefty hit of moisture, there are many that do actually contain the rare ingredients older skin might genuinely benefit from. So to save you from having to try out every single budget anti-ageing product out there, keep scrolling for the affordable options that contain powerhouse ingredients. Oh, and they’re all under £35. You’re welcome. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimag...

I’m a Child of The ’90s, and These 25 Dresses Make Me So Nostalgic
Raise your hand if you wanted to be just like Rachel Greene when you grew up. I still do, if I’m honest, and I’m exactly the age she was in the pilot episode of Friends. Besides her quick wit and signature hairdo, Rachel’s outfits alone deemed her worthy of icon status. Her dress sense captured exactly what was great about 1990s fashion. Think simple, flattering silhouettes and a moody palette of chocolate brown and black, punctuated with brighter neutrals. If you hadn’t heard, ’90s minimalism has been solidified as one of autumn/winter’s trend biggest trends by designer labels like Bottega Veneta and Etro, so now is the perfect time to look to our fashion-savvy friend for style guidance. And dresses feel like an obviou...
Zara Just Released Its Most French-Girl Collection Yet
If you’re not fully familiar with Emmanuelle Alt, her name probably at least rings a bell. Alt served as the editor in chief of Vogue Paris for 10 years, departing last spring. Alt, who now focuses on styling, has a pared-down aesthetic when it comes to her own personal style, and is known for her impeccable wardrobe of neutral basics. When she wears trends, they’re subtle and timeless, like an oversize leather jacket or navy blazer. My point in telling you all of this is that Alt and Zara just released their second collection together (the first came in July), with Alt serving as a creative consultant. The name of the new collection is called Into the Classics, and it contains a plethora of timeless pieces with Alt’s signature French twist. It...
