I Change Perfumes With the Seasons and I’m Relying On These 13 for Summer
While there’s something lovely about having a signature scent that you wear year-round, I prefer to think of fragrance in the same way that I would my wardrobe. Sure, I have some staple perfumes that I come back to time and time again—my fragrance basics, if you will—but I like to layer in new scents in the same way that you might try a trending style of shorts or a new dress silhouette when the seasons change. And there’s one season in particular when this concept really comes into its own: summer. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

And Now, the 7 Most Important Autumn Handbag Trends
As a habitual planner, I’m always looking ahead and thinking about what’s next. Although this has its setbacks, it does come in handy for my job as a fashion editor, where, yes, I need to live and be aware of the current goings on, but I also need to immerse myself in the future; that’s where the bulk of my trend-sourcing lies. And what’s on the horizon? Autumn/winter 2022, of course. So far, we’ve analysed the runways by way of our bumper trend report, which, if you haven’t already done so, I suggest reading to better understand the upcoming fashion mood. Today, however, I’m honing in on handbags; specifically, the autumn/winter 2022 handbag trends I think will be the season’s most noteworthy. From my research, it’s clear that th...

Maya Jama Sizzles in Red Hot Gown at GRM Gala in London
An array of showstopping gowns were spotted at Kensington Palace, London, on 1 Aug. as stars attended the GRM Gala, a yearly celebration of Black excellence in the UK entertainment industry — and there was one particular ensemble that stole the show. TV presenter Maya Jama wowed in a stunning strapless textured dress by Sophie Couture, the brand from Azerbaijan designer Gunel Babayeva. Jama’s dramatic look was emphasised by a slim-fitting strapless bustier that transitioned into a voluminous skirt complete with structured ruffles and thigh-high split. The textured fabric and sporadic feathers attached created a theatrical look that ensured she was front and centre for her style. Along with stylist Kyle De’Volle, she expertly the chose the perfect accompaniments for such a state...
Princess Charlotte and Kate Middleton Match in Monochrome at Commonwealth Games
Princess Charlotte is following in her mother’s stylish footsteps as she attended the Commonwealth Games on 2 Aug with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The 7-year-old was spotted in the crowd wearing a black-and-white-striped fit-and-flare dress complete with a white Peter Pan collar as she sat watching the swimming heats at the Sandwell Aquatics Centre in Birmingham. Wearing her Breton stripes with La Coqueta white sandals and her hair in pigtails, she looked every inch the cheeky princess. This marks the first time the princess has joined her parents without her brothers, and she certainly dressed for the occasion. Her £44 Rachel Riley frock perfectly complemented her mum’s monochrome outfit. Kate Middleton wore a chic £1,945 white Alexander McQueen suit, which she first wo...
Angelina Jolie Wore Pyjamas to the Airport, and It Was as Chic as Can Be
When we tell you that Angelina Jolie wore pyjamas to the airport, we don’t mean that she strolled up in pyjama pants and a wrinkly T-shirt. When you’re Angelia Jolie, you keep things polished—even before a long flight. This week, Jolie was photographed at Heathrow airport in London, wearing a chocolate brown silk pyjama set accessorised with Valentino slide sandals and a Saint Laurent tote. Once you see this look, you’re going to want to wear silk pyjamas for your next flight. They’re just as comfortable and easy as wearing sweats for a flight, but far chicer and more lightweight (it is late July, after all). I found a very similar pair of pyjamas to Jolie’s, along with a few other equally polished options just in case you’re inspired ...
Ever Since I Bought These £35 M&S Flats, I’ve Struggled to Wear Anything Else
Marks and Spencer is one of our favourite places to shop for long-lasting wardrobe staples and has a strong track record of every day turning basics into cult items, whether it’s a grey jumper or a beige wrap coat. I am most impressed by M&S’ footwear department, and wear a pair of ballet pumps at least nine days out of ten, as they are the comfiest shoes I own. I’ve had them for over a year now, and they just keep on going… These £35 pumps have a high cut and a gentle V towards the toe, which make them appear more elevated that the classic almond toe. There’s something a little Phoebe Philo about this silhouette, no? Although my exact pair has sold out (sorry), for summer 2022, there are different iterations with slightly ...
These Under-£40 H&M Basics Will Definitely Make You Look Rich
All hail H&M. Honestly, as a fashion editor I look at a lot of new-in products every day, across high street and luxury fashion. And after all these years the affordable hero still manages to pull it out of the bag with some of my favourite wardrobe pieces each season. The H&M design team just seem to know exactly what I want to wear— which right now is elevated capsule pieces that make me look like I have a much bigger budget than I actually do. And the latest new-in drop serves exactly that purpose. It’s full of simple, minimalist wardrobe basics with a stylish twist. Think draped jersey dresses, ribbed tops with modern sweetheart necklines and expensive-looking suits with just the right amount of slouch that could easily pass for designer. All in a...
Rochelle Humes’s £59 Dress Is the Easiest Thing to Throw On
What I love most about Rochelle’s dress is its price. The dress itself comes from Nobody’s Child, which, since launching in 2015, has focused its energy on creating responsibly-made clothes at an accessible price point, promising to use conscious fabrics, reduce waste and always be transparent with its processes. At £59, it’s a cost-per-wear no-brainer. I’ll wear it with flat slider sandals to see out the dog days of summer, then switch to knee-high boots in glossy burgundy or brown suede for autumn. If you love Rochelle Humes’ Nobody’s Child dress as much as I do, you’ll be pleased to hear it’s still in stock and that it also comes in a chic black colourway. I’ve shopped out both for you below, accompanied by an edit of other Nobody...
9 French Women Just Showed Me How to Style Shorts
French women have a knack for elevating whatever they wear with their classic style principles—even a piece as polarising as shorts. Shorts are generally considered to be one of the more divisive items in fashion—I admittedly used to avoid wearing them, telling myself they wouldn’t “flatter” my petite-and-curvy stature. Thankfully, I’ve worked through this issue, and this summer, I’ve actually really enjoyed wearing shorts. Still, though, years spent avoiding them means I’m basically starting my shorts-styling journey from scratch. I decided I’d turn to some French women whom I regularly rely on for outfit inspiration to see how they style their shorts. What I found out was that shorts, in many guises, are an integral part of the French aesthetic. This shouldn’t come as a surpris...
9 Brunch Outfits Worth Instagramming Over Your Avocado Toast
When it comes to brunch, my feelings about the occasion are simple: It should be enjoyed at any given opportunity. I would brunch every day if I could (preferably with a mimosa in hand). However, there is something quite lovely about keeping brunch as a treat, especially when it presents you with a reason to wear an outfit you love. Deciding what to wear to brunch has a lot of variables. You want to look stylish, that’s a given, but you also want to be comfortable, particularly if you’re having a brunch of the bottomless variety. That said, because you’ll spend most of your time sitting, you don’t necessarily need to think about the practicality of your look. In fact, brunch might give you the chance to wear the more fanciful clothes, shoes and accessories in your w...
