This New (Flashy) Underwear Trend Is Becoming Popular
Michelle here again to report the latest underwear trend to catch my eye. As I jokingly pointed out last month, hunting down the newest and (sometimes confusing) styles in the lingerie world has recently become my not-so-hidden talent. Some of my favourite undergarment updates include the return of string underwear, a little trend Victoria’s Secret coined “keyhole” underwear, and this complicated yet intriguing style you can spot in every top lingerie line’s collection. Today I’m adding to the list and sharing another common trend I’ve seen among brands like Fleur du Mal and Agent Provocateur. I’m referring to all the “flashy” details on thongs, briefs, and bikini styles. Waistbands with sparkly rhinestones? Victoria’s Secret has you covered. Flashy metallic appliqués? Coco de Mer is your ...
The Most Incredible Red Carpet Looks From the 2022 Venice Film Festival
No offence to the Oscars and the Met Gala, but there’s something about a European film festival that just oozes high-octane glamour we don’t see elsewhere. I revelled in all the red carpet looks from Cannes back in May, and now the Venice Film Festival has officially arrived. Cartier is the festival’s main sponsor, so naturally the brand’s ambassador Emma Chamberlain was in full regalia for her Venetian debut. Jodie Turner-Smith, Julianne Moore, and Tessa Thompson were among the other standouts on day one of La Biennale di Venezia. Scroll down to see the best red carpet looks.

Sorry Leopard, Zebra Is The Only Animal Print We’re Buying Now
It’s fair to say that leopard print has long been a staple in many an It girls’ wardrobe (and if you’ve seen any of Kate Moss’ recent appearances, it’s almost always been in the print), but lately an entire safari of animal prints have been explored, with only one rising to prominence this autumn. The striking zebra print. Okay, zebra print in fashion is not necessarily new, but in the last year we’ve had a number of strong stripe references that make us think that this season might actually be the first that the leopard has been relegated to second place. Before you’re quick to defend the big cat and rule out the zebra entirely, let’s discuss the A/W 2022 runway. Not only did Dries Van Noten feat...
From Skinny to Puddle: How Jennifer Lopez Styles 5 “Risky” Jeans Trends
Jennifer Lopez has had so many statement fashion moments over the years. Think the Versace dress, the Met Gala headpiece and, most recently, the custom Ralph Lauren wedding gown. But despite all the sparkle and glamour, it’s clear that when J.Lo dresses down, she always turns to denim; specifically jeans. In the early days of her career she relied on daring, low-rise styles but now, in her 50s, she’s branching out—and perhaps revisiting some old favourites along the way. Whether it’s baggy or pleated, skinnies or a bootcut, whatever the jean style, J.Lo has probably tried it. She’s never one to shy away from experimenting with different looks and knows exactly how to wear each style to maximum effect. On her honeymoon alone she was spotted in an assortment of deni...
7 Easy Staples Every Brit-Girl Capsule Wardrobe Should Include
The UK is a wonderfully eclectic place, boasting a wide spectrum of personalities and tastes—sartorial and otherwise. It’s one of my favourite things about living here: there’s outfit inspiration to be found wherever I go. Even a quick bus journey can leave me frantically searching online for the vintage bag I spotted on a stranger, or wondering if I could pull off a pair of printed flairs. That being said, there are certain markers of British fashion that feel unique. And I’m not just talking about the impressive dossier of talented designers. The culmination of weather, history and the ever-changing zeitgeist has filtered out the items that just don’t feel quite right in a British wardrobe, and a select f...
Kate Middleton and Mary-Kate Olsen Agree: This Boot Trend Is Made for Skinnies
Skinny jeans will never go “out,” and that’s a fact. Just take a look at any one of the handful of celebrities who seem to cling to the perennial denim staple. Season after season, we turn to these style stars to inform us of the freshest ways to style our skinnies, and according to them, all signs point to one boot trend in particular—riding boots—that just so happen to pair flawlessly with classic skinny jeans. Kate Middleton has long been a fan of these flat, knee-high boots, and there are plenty of her outfits to get inspired by. They also happen to be approved by Mary-Kate Olsen. (When MK and Ashley wear something cool, you know we’re quick to follow suit.) We spotted riding boots all over the AW22 runways from a who...
We’ll All Be Dyeing Our Hair These 9 Colours For Autumn, Say Hair Colourists
Celebrity hair colourist Justin Anderson (who tends to the hair colour of Jennifer Anniston and Margot Robbie) summed it up best when I asked him about his hair colour predictions for this autumn. “I think that hair colour should always suit you; it should suit your lifestyle and it should suit your skin tone,” he said. “Think: when you see someone walk out of a workout and their hair is just a beautiful, natural colour that suits them, even if they’re not wearing any makeup—that’s good hair colour. It just works with every part of your lifestyle.” And other hair colourists feel the same way. “Recently, I’ve noticed hair trends have shifted to more subtle seasonal themes, and now more than ever, clients are looking to make ...

Honestly, These Boot Trends Feel a Little Dated—4 That Feel So Much Fresher
Is there anything as gratifying as treating yourself to a new pair of boots come autumn? Opening up the box, pulling out the stuffing, and getting a whiff of that fresh-boot smell. Just me? Moving swiftly on… Still, there’s no denying that boots form a pretty integral part of our aesthetics in the colder months. Over the past few years, I’ve made a point of making sound boot investments, choosing styles that prioritise timelessness over anything too trendy. However, that doesn’t mean that some boots don’t start to feel dated after a time—even pairs I know are pretty classic can lose their appeal after a couple of years in the midst of a flurry of fresh new styles to choose from. This got me thinking—I know which boot trends I think are a little dated, but...
The £35 M&S Bag All of Our Editors Want for Autumn
Ah, the Great British high street—we’ve got a lot to thank it for. Between its affordability and sheer convenience, it’s become our primary way to shop, and when it comes to trends, we can always rely on it to deliver accessible takes on runway pieces. More often than not, scouring the stores can uncover hidden gems and turn unexpected pieces into overnight successes, and with a new season of clothes and accessories making their way into stores, there is plenty to be excited about for the season ahead. Marks and Spencer has had a particularly good run of transitional pieces and standout accessories in the last few months (who could forget those luxe-looking sandals), and we’ve found the latest piece in demand on the site, and it lo...
