9 Le Labo Scents That Are Low-Key Better Than Santal 33 (There, I Said It)
Look, I’ll be the first to admit that Le Labo’s iconic Santal 33 scent smells really good. In addition to owning a bottle myself, the fragrance has become so wildly popular over the years that it’s basically a calling card for in-the-know Millennials. Basically, if you know, you know. But the Brooklyn-based perfume brand has so much more to offer in the way of its oil-based unisex scents beyond just its best-seller—and I’m here to walk you through where to even begin. It’s easy to see why the brand has become so popular; each of the fragrances are layered with an intoxicating medley of notes and since they’re oil-based, one spritz can last you all day. I know they can be pricey, but in my opinion, the cost-per...

Kate Middleton, Holly Willoughby and Every Fashion Editor Love This One Dress
While there have been plenty of contenders for the top dress brand, it’s The Vampire’s Wife that remains the choice dress outfitter when it comes to celebrities. Seen everywhere from across Instagram to award-season after-parties, it continues to be incredibly popular way into 2022. The brand first began gaining momentum back in 2017 when the likes of Alexa Chung, Sienna Miller and Keira Knightley, as well as a legion of high-profile influencers, all wore the brand’s Festival dress on repeat. Owing to its universally flattering shape—a simple round neck, nipped-in waist, midi-length skirt and elbow-length sleeves adorned with frilly cuffs—it’s little wonder it became an It-girl favourite. Fast-forward to 2019 at the Royal wedding, and t...
21 Dresses We Love for the Long Easter Weekend and Beyond
After the last couple of years, family occasions have held a much greater significance in our diaries and hearts. Easter, in particular, is a time of remembrance, coming together and honouring of loved ones, bound by lots and lots of chocolate. Whether you celebrate Easter or not, it marks the change of seasons and what’s not to love about dressing up for the occasion? It’s also a four day weekend, after all. Whether you’re spending it home or away, in or out, like most things, Easter dressing can be anything you make it. Whimsical ‘cottagecore’ and agricultural merriment are two phrases that come to mind, but there’s also space for oversized, boxier fits, depending on your wants and needs. The midi and maxi dress take prevalence in my picks, as I find they can be either casual or for...

As fashion editors, it’s our job to be one step ahead at all times, whether that means discovering the latest mini trends on Instagram or planning next season’s key pieces. And while we’ve only just stepped into spring, summer is already on our minds. It’s hard not to think ahead to the season of joy when it means weddings, al fresco dining, beach trips and holidays. Events and special occasions are going to be better than ever this year, and there’s one brand, in particular, that has an outfit for every one of them: Reiss. This year, it’s all about taking the opportunity to get dressed up, and Reiss’s new Every Moment is an Occasion edit is here to help. With everything from dresses and suits to trainers and relaxed tailoring, the collection has all the pieces you’ll need for occasions bo...
The Wedding Wardrobe: A Fantasy Capsule for All Brides to be
I’m getting married this September, and it’s not the guest list or table plans that have the potential to turn me into a bridezilla. It’s the amazing outfits that target me on Instagram every single day and sometimes make me wish I could squeeze in one more outfit change into the proceedings. I thought that I’d find it impossible to find a wedding dress I love, but I’ve actually had the opposite problem. The process of finding a wedding outfit has had a complete overhaul over the past few years, as many contemporary or fashion-forward designers have now entered into the bridal space, giving more options to a less traditional bride. The likes of Rixo, Sleeper, Vampire’s Wife and Taller Marmo have offered up a more relaxed take on bridal lo...
These 6 Colours Are the Key to an Expensive-Looking Spring Wardrobe
From street style to the runway, and of course, Pantone’s predictions, when it comes to colour there are plenty of indicators to help us understand which shades will be prominent for the spring season. Very Peri was crowned Pantone’s colour of the year and is gaining popularity for spring/summer 2022. On the runway, minimalist ivory was featured heavily at luxury brands including The Row, Valentino and JW Anderson, while sunset orange was a key colourway at Prada and Jacquemus. Additionally, shades of sage green and tangerine orange are already being worn by several of our favourite influencers. Thankfully, the one thing each of these colours has in common is that they all look extremely high-end, and can be worn as a statement shade to create an expen...
There’s a Good Chance I’ll Be Wearing These 5 Simple Items With Jeans for Spring
There are a variety of fashion pieces that won’t go out of style, and jeans are one of them. Denim is a mainstay because of its ease, cool factor, and the fact that it’s universally flattering thanks to the endless number of styles available. In fact, you can wear jeans with just about anything. However, my favourite things to wear with jeans are all stylish simple items. These days, I am all for looks that take little to no effort, and as we enter into spring, I am keeping this in mind. While outfit planning for the new season, it is clear that jeans will be on heavy rotation, and I’ve begun to narrow down my top simple picks to help round out each look. The great thing is that just because a piece is simple, it doesn’t mean it’s all about basics. Trend...
Holly Willoughby Has Worn This Dress Three Times, and She’s Not the Only Celeb
Holly Willoughby is known for chronicling her outfits for This Morning on Instagram and we always keep an eye on her updates to gather any style inspiration. Recently, Holly has made a case for the black dress, not once but twice, after wearing cult brand The Vampire’s Wife. A longstanding fan of the brand, Holly also wore a red style a couple of years back that, according to liketoknow.it, caused a 2,700% increase in searches for the brand. If that’s not enough, she also ticks the eco-credentials box as the dresses were all rented. I guess it shouldn’t be that much of a shock. While there have been plenty of contenders for the top spot, it’s The Vampire’s Wife that remains the choice dress outfitter when it comes to celebs. ...
I Just Snuck Into H&M’s Showroom to Try the New Collection— Here’s What I Loved
Turns out, the collection was as good as we’d heard. Think plenty of expensive-looking relaxed tailoring to see you through this transitional time of year, as well as some gorgeous dresses and warm-weather pieces that got us seriously excited for the summer ahead. As a dress-avoiding minimalist, the floaty styles, lace and pops of colour that feature in this new drop weren’t necessarily pieces I would usually have picked out on my regular H&M trips (give me that beige blazer any day, though). But I’m so glad I had the opportunity to try them (for research purposes, of course) as I was actually really impressed. This maxi dress in particular was so good it almost made me want to fly to Bali for a wedding and ‘accidentally’ miss the plane home. Trust me, yo...
Katie Holmes’s Outfits Revolve Around These 9 Spring Basics
For most of us, spring is about sensible investments for the warmer months, such as a new pair of sandals or a throw-it-all-in tote bag. Items need to be about quality and reliability, and so this means many of us tend to lean on classics that we can wear for decades. Katie Holmes is the best example of the benefits of assembling a timeless spring capsule wardrobe. Whenever we clock her out and about in New York City, she reliably sticks to an arsenal of simple but elevated items—the very sort we’d like to populate our wardrobes with. She has quite a minimalistic aesthetic when it comes to dressing and sticks to a neutral colour palette of camel, white, cream and navy, with the odd pop of colour. All in all, her looks make for a very chic capsule, which ...
