The Only Pretty Lingerie Trend I’ll Be Buying This Season
Many a fashion or beauty journalist has talked of “little luxuries” in the past but said treats have, perhaps, never been quite as vital to us as they have since we were first thrown into a lockdown. With the new perspective this experience gave us, nowadays it’s often the small things that matter, and when it comes to getting ready each morning, there are a few particular items that always lift our moods: A new perfume can be ritualistic and special, a secondhand item that hits a new trend might prove to be the exciting wardrobe trophy you’ve been looking for, and putting on underwear that fits perfectly and feels lovely can be the ultimate confidence booster. It may only be visible to you, but being considered ...
So Many Editors Own This Expensive-Looking High-Street Jacket
Coming in a handful of cool colourways—currently black, beige, red, light blue, green and lilac—this blazer has certainly earned its reputation for being a classic wardrobe staple, especially since it’s pretty darn seasonlesss and available to buy at Arket year-round. A popular versatile styling hack is to throw it over a simple jeans and T-shirt look, but I’ve also seen other fashion editors styling theirs with shorts and fisherman sandals, over midi, maxi and mini dresses, or with the matching Hopsack trousers for a polished suit finish. It truly comes into its own in autumn, though. Mine are from a few years ago now and I still wear both colours on repeat all season, usually with a thin cashmere knit either under it or tied around my shoulders, ...
Blake Lively Just Debuted Her Baby Bump in a Micro Mini and 6-Inch Platforms
Congratulations are in order for Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, who are expecting their fourth child. Lively debuted her baby bump on the red carpet in a glittering micro minidress and towering six-inch platform heels, both by Valentino. Could there be a chicer way to announce the news? I certainly think not. The Hollywood power couple already has three daughters: James, Inez, and Betty. (Yes, as in the Betty who inspired the Taylor Swift song of the same name!)

Emma Watson Just Wore a Sheer ‘Wedding Dress’ With the Most London Shoe Style
We can go months without a sighting of Emma Watson and then suddenly, she steps out in an outfit that reminds us just how brilliant her fashion choices are. While attending the Caring for Women dinner in New York on Thursday night, Watson opted for a classic black blazer and whimsical, almost bridal white lace dress with cutout back. She might be based Stateside, but Watson was sure to add a London edge to her get-up with a pair of chunky platform sandals and a studded clutch bag—the perfect balance of edgy and pretty. Though sightings of Emma may be few and far between, we have a real understanding of her personal style. More often than not, Watson sticks to monochromatic looks, mostly black and white combinations, and always with edgy accessories that ground more femi...
I Spent 3 Days in Palma—Here’s Everything I Packed and Wore
One of the most popular beach towns in Mallorca is Deia, a quaint area that’s known for the Belmond La Residencia hotel. An absolute must visit, if even just for lunch. The terrace has the most postcard-perfect views of the Tramuntana mountains. I wore a breezy, scallop detail dress from Paper London. It’s the details that make the beachy throw-on look so expensive – the contrast embroidery, the continued scallop feature on the shoulder straps and best of all, opaque cotton which really should be the standard but is remarkably difficult to find.

Quilted Jackets Are About to be Everywhere Again– These 27 Are the Absolute Best
Eclipsing them all in covetability, however, is the quilted jacket. Of course, this isn’t exactly a new trend—variations of quilted jackets have been on our radar for the past few winters. But this year is about cropped, waist-grazing jackets with a defined quilted finish in either diamond or more abstract patterns, which is not to be mistaken for the tubular lines associated with puffer coats.

10 Shoe Styles That Always Look Good With Jeans
If there’s one thing that all Who What Wear editors agree on, it’s the timeless appeal of a great pair of jeans. They’re a staple in just about everyone’s wardrobe, and they can be styled in so many ways depending on season, occasion and general mood. But their versatility can also be problematic. With an abundance of styling options comes an abundance of decisions to be made. Thankfully, the fashion set has served up myriad chic and easy-to-replicate denim looks that take the hard work out of getting dressed. And one thing that always catches my eye when sifting through this collection of inspo is the footwear. No matter what top you’ve paired with your jeans, shoes can instantly change a look, taking you from day to night in a matter of seconds. Whether you&...
8 Affordable Trends Londoners Will Live In This Autumn
Let’s debunk an outdated fashion myth that spending a lot of cash on clothes will help you to look more fashionable. If there’s one thing I’ve learned in the 12+ years I’ve worked in this crazy industry, it’s that having a healthy disposable incoming and great style aren’t mutually exclusive. You can shop on a shoestring (or perhaps not at all) and still have more style in your little finger than someone who has the bandwidth to spend four-figures a month on new pieces. This is why I always advocate for the high street, too. I’ve found some of my most-worn, -complimented, -borrowed clothes and accessories on the high street, which further proves my point—budget isn’t everything.

When it comes to fail-safe outfit formulas, you just can’t beat a blazer with jeans. It’s a simple, chic wardrobe game changer that will never let you down. You can also wear this combination on repeat, and many of the people we watch closely for their style have been relying on very little else for the early days of autumn. To ensure you’re never out of styling options, today we’re taking tips from the impeccably dressed style set and serving you 11 fresh outfit ideas. From grey blazers worn with dark-wash denim for dressier occasions to beige blazers worn with vintage-wash jeans and sneakers for the weekend (and simple styling updates in between), here are several ways to style this timeless combination. We’ll never tire of i...
The New Autumn Trend That Harry Styles, Gucci and Your Grandad Have in Common
Cycling shorts, thong sandals, cargo trousers—we’ve lost track of the number of “unexpected” fashion trends that have transcended to become the height of cool, but if you asked us a few seasons ago, even we couldn’t have predicted that this retro item would make such a strong appearance on the style agenda. Knitted vests have made a major comeback thanks to the likes of Burberry, Gucci and their muse du jour, Harry Styles, who made the preppy top a firm fixture way back in 2020. Ever since, the formerly fuddy-duddy knit has started to crop up in the outfits of our favourite influencers and back on the 2022 runways, most recently in COS’s debut NYFW show, so you know it’s sticking around for good.

COS Just Put On an Epic Show at Fashion Week—Shop the Affordable Looks Now
Don’t get me wrong. I love affordable fashion. But it’s not often that a high-street collection is so good, so elevated, so on-trend, that it can easily hold its own in a runway show during one of the most famous fashion weeks in the world. COS just pulled that off with finesse, for the second time. The brand showed its A/W 22 collection at New York Fashion Week on Tuesday (it showed in London this time last year) with the city skyline as a backdrop and A-list models such as Paloma Elsesser showcasing the clothes. We’ve known for a while that COS was special and definitely on the more expensive-looking end of the high street, but in recent seasons—I think my fellow editors would all agree—the brand has taken it to another level with beautifully functio...
Yep, We Still Rate Arket’s Puffer Coats as the Best Around
Photo: @basicstouch In recent years I went on my own hunt to find the perfect puffer coat, searching everywhere from Prada to Primark. And after months of trawling, last winter I settled on Arket‘s down coat, a style that already came with a history of being extra popular. Back in February 2020, the shopping search engine Lyst revealed that amongst the biggest-selling trophy pieces of the season (many of which were expensive and designer), Arket’s perfect puffer made it onto the top 10. With its simple cut, elegant and neutral colourways, handy hood, slits with popper fastenings on each side to adjust for more movement and roomy pockets, it ticked all of the boxes for what one needs from a practical coat—and at £229, the cost per wear over a series...
