8 Influencers Share Their Chic Spring Wish Lists
As an editor, it’s my job to be impartial about the fashion I showcase to you. Not everything is necessarily something I would personally wear—I’ve been trained to look beyond that; to instead seek out impressive finds that’ll work for different people and styles. This is perhaps the biggest difference between editors and influencers—a question I’m commonly asked—in that influencers present pieces that are a true representation of themselves. In turn, this makes them so fascinating to follow; find an influencer whose style you love and speaks to your own, and you’ve struck sartorial gold. They become something of your own personal shopper and make it incredibly easy to build upon your existing wardrobe by spotlighting options you’re probably going to lik...
Victoria Beckham Basically Wore a Wedding Dress to Her Friend’s Wedding
This week, Victoria Beckham attended what is undoubtedly one of the weddings of the year—the nuptials of Vogue Editor-in-Chief, Edward Enninful and his partner, Alec Maxwell. Naturally, we were excited to see what VB chose to wear for the occasion and, thanks to the Instagram feed of her friend and plus one to the celebration, fashion critic Anders Christian Madsen, we were able to see her look in all it’s glory. Opting for a white floor length satin gown, complete with string-like straps and ornate lace detailing, Victoria Beckham was striking. But white? For a wedding? Had Beckham finally missed a style beat? Of course not! This is VB we’re talking about. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be.

18 Beauty Products That Models and MUAs Swear by Backstage at Fashion Week
London Fashion Week is officially over, and this season served a whole load of stunning beauty looks. From the bejewelled, studded eye looks at Simone Rocha to Molly Goddard’s sky-high ponytails, the London looks for A/W22 were truly exceptional. But while I was tiptoeing my way through the backstage crowds last week at Emilia Wickstead to see if I could grab a few seconds with the lead makeup artist Naoko Scintu (she was creating the beauty look with By Terry), I realised something quite important: fashion week beauty has barely changed. No, I’m not talking about the looks that make it onto the catwalk, but rather the backstage heroes that makeup artists and models swear by to see them through fashion month. As I scanned the tables, analysed the contents of spilled kit bags and ...
Not All Street Style Is ‘Out There’—These 7 Chic Looks Are So Easy to Copy
We admit, street style during fashion month can get a little wild. There are some people who go all out for shows in fabulous tulle dresses and heels higher than you could ever imagine walking in (let alone looking effortlessly fabulous in)—and we have the utmost respect for them. But it’s not all feathers and tutus. Most of us attending are running around from show to show, jumping on the Tube and dealing with gale force winds (thanks, Eunice) as we try to scoff a Pret sandwich before the next event begins. Which also means our outfits actually need to be easy, comfortable and mostly practical, as well as chic. That’s not to say these looks are any less inspiring. On the contrary, it’s often the more understated, wearable outfits that get us the most excited when we spot t...
Trust Me, These 22 & Other Stories Buys Look So Premium
Let’s cut to the chase here: & Other Stories’s spring collection is here and, I have to say, it’s looking pretty damn premium. And this is coming from someone who spends their life scrolling through the new-in sections of online stores. Let me tell you why: Firstly, the tailoring. I am, admittedly, a bit of a tailoring fiend, and you will always find me lurking around the blazers at any given store, however & Other Stories’s spring offerings are looking particularly noteworthy. This brown iteration is a highlight, with its cinching belt and slightly oversized fit; just add the matching waistcoat and trousers for a serious power suit ensemble. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined...
I’m a Big COS Fan, But It’s Really Outdone Itself With This Spring Drop
I never thought I’d see the day that would COS include neon in its new season collection, yet the brand’s spring drop arrived last week, and alongside its classic offering of neutrals, there was a generous dose of highlighter hues. And you know what? It looked pretty damn cool. It’s yet another example of how the brand has been adapting to the modern fashion market in recent years, cleverly harnessing its minimalist credentials to deliver collections that feel fresh yet not at all faddy.

This Cult Coat Elevates Every Outfit, and It’s Just Come Back Into Stock
Since it’s clear you all love The Frankie Shop’s elevated basics as much as we do, we thought you might like to know that after selling out on the brand’s website earlier this year, their latest hero item— the oversized, masculine cut, utterly desirable John coat has just been restocked at Net-A-Porter for the season ahead. We’re talking about a beautifully tailored wool coat that looks like it came straight out of the late ‘80s, early ’90s (no bad thing) and comes in an array of timeless colours. Turns out it’s not just every editor on the Who What Wear team that’s fallen hard for it, either. We haven’t been able to scroll on Instagram lately without seeing the chicest women on our feeds styling it up as part of their transitional wardrobes and we kept spotting it repe...
The V-Waist Jean Is the Genius Spring Denim Trend For an Hourglass Figure
As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you’ll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work. Y2K fashion has officially made a comeback, with some essential pieces getting a much-needed redesign for 2022. If you love early 2000s style but don’t fancy squeezing into a pair of low-rise jeans, then V-waist jeans are your new wardrobe companion. Also called V-front jeans, the spring/summer 2022 denim trend combines the comfort of a sculpting, high-waist jean, with the edge of a low-rise. The high-waist, V-front jean notably appeared as an avant-garde design on Y/Project’s autumn 2020 catwalk. Afterwards, Google searches for wearable V-waist jeans hit a peak...
Trust Me, Beauty Editors Don’t Want You to Know About These 24 Perfumes
Beauty editors love to talk about beauty. Obviously. But I’m not sure people fully understand the extent of our love for products. If you were to get a group of us together in a room, we could talk about beauty products for hours without coming up for breath. That’s why, whenever you drop us an email, DM or comment asking for some beauty advice, we’re typically all too pleased to dish the dirt. There does, however, appear to be one caveat to this statement. Over my many years of partaking in and observing conversations amongst beauty editors, I have come to realise that we tend to get a little flustered when it comes to talking perfume and fragrance. Not because it is a notoriously difficult topic to write about or because we don’t know our stuff, but because we get defensively s...
Weddings Will Triumph This Year—These Are the 6 Makeup “Rules” to Know
After two very trying years for the wedding industry, it looks as though (all fingers crossed) things are looking up this wedding season. In fact, our wedding schedules are looking busier than ever with invites flooding in thick and fast. You see, not only are we busy planning for the year’s normal number of weddings, but we’re also dealing with rescheduled dates from cancelled arrangements off the back of lockdowns and restrictions. And although full of love and joy, weddings can be stressful—especially when you’ve got one to attend every other weekend. To help take the stress out of at least one situation, we thought we’d help you get ahead on your beauty plans. After all, weddings are the one opportunity to look your glowiest self. However, we also appreciate t...
I Spent Hours Trying On H&M’s Spring Collection—These Are the Pieces I Loved
Ah, H&M—where to begin? Prior to working in fashion, H&M wasn’t a brand I regularly shopped. However, in the 11 years since I started analysing its wares more closely, I’ve become more and more impressed by the pieces H&M creates. Sure, sometimes it’s a little young for me—I steer clear from much of the Divided section for this exact reason—but the rest of H&M remains the affordable high-street hotspot I find some of my favourite pieces in. From premium-looking knitwear to elevated midi dresses, it’s the place I go when I need an easy fashion fix on a budget. This is why I like to particularly pay close attention to H&M when each new season rolls around. Although temperatures still may be on the chilly side, it certainly looks&nbs...
Kate Middleton Wore a Zara Blazer With 2022’s “It” Trouser Trend
Who doesn’t love a good royal tour? Kate Middleton travelled to Denmark solo but then joined forces with Crown Princess Mary of Denmark in Copenhagen, offering double the royal fashion. The Duchess of Cambridge attended a variety of events, including a meeting at Amalienborg Palace. However, during her visit, there were two particular looks that stood out to us. First up was the look she wore to the Copenhagen Infant Mental Health Project at the University of Copenhagen. For the outing, Middleton looked sharp in a red tweed blazer and on-trend black wide-leg trousers, whilst carrying a cute patent top-handle bag. Alarm bells began going off in our heads—had we seen this blazer before? Yes, we had! And not just on Middleton, either. The Duchess had indee...
