& Other Stories’ Sellout Cardigan is Back in a Chic New Colourway
It’s not often that a single item stops us in our tracks, let alone a cardigan from the high-street. Well, last year one brand managed it and, obviously, it was from & Other Stories. Coming in a subtle shade of grey-brown and finished with an unusual asymmetrical, button-up design, it wasn’t the most look-at-me style in the world, but therein lay its luxury appeal. Unsurprisingly, it sold out within a matter of weeks, but we’re happy to report that the cardigan is back for 2022 in a chic new oatmeal shade.

Mary-Kate Olsen Is on Her Way to Making These £52 Trainers Completely Sell Out
Not just any celebrity has the power to singlehandedly kick-start a trend, but if anyone can do it, it’s Mary-Kate (and Ashley, too) Olsen. Whether it’s because of her former acting career, her role as one-half of arguably every fashion person’s favourite luxury brand The Row, or her overall untouchable and effortless air, we’ll do anything and wear anything that she does—no questions asked. So when the designer was spotted on Monday wearing a pair of black OG slip-ons from Vans, you know damn well that we ran (not walked) to every store that carries the £52 style to snatch up a pair of our own. Olsen, who was photographed getting into a car in New York City, paired her slip-on trainers with slouchy gray trousers, an electric...
I’ve Fallen in Love With These Classic Pieces, and I Think You Will Too
As a fashion editor, I have spent a lot of my career reporting on new trends, new labels and new ways to wear things. However, in an effort to slow down the trend cycle and buy items with longevity in mind, we are also conscious here at Who What Wear to dedicate as many stories to repeated outfit ideas, classic items and second-hand items. Personally, I always gravitate to simple pieces that have a timeless appeal. Below, I’ve put together an edit of classic winter pieces that I really love, including fine knitwear to wear in place of a T-shirt, beautiful leather handbags, blazers in neutral shades and chunky ankle boots. In terms of brands, there are a number of labels I always turn to for a timeless aesthetic. At a higher price point, Nanushka and Totême are leading the w...

I Wasn’t a Skirt Person Until I Saw These 17 Styles
There’s aren’t many wardrobe categories that I haven’t plundered over the years. Jackets? The more the merrier. Trousers? I’ll have a pair in every colour, please. But skirts? For some reason they’ve never really piqued my interest. Maybe it was their fussiness that required more thought, whether it was around shoe pairings or seasonally-appropriate lengths. I also like to feel free to move, and in this context, trousers tend to best serve me best. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

34 Simple Spring Pieces Guaranteed to Freshen Up Your Wardrobe
With the change in seasons, inevitably comes a change in how we approach our wardrobes. I, for one, am a particularly seasonal dresser— in winter I’m all about those cosy layers, rich jewel tones and fancy textures. As soon as the sun starts to shine in spring, however, I feel myself getting drawn to light, bright and breezy pieces. My denim choices change from black to blue and my beige blazer is switched in for pastel jackets. Of course, not all change happens instantly, and for now whilst our heads are looking forward to spring but our bodies are still in winter, I find picking one or two fresh pieces and layering them up with a trench or bright jumper does just the trick.

10 Staples Every 20-Something Should Have in Their Wardrobe
Disclaimer: I’m 32, but I think we can all agree that the last two years don’t count, so that makes me 30. And what better age to reflect on the style lessons I learnt in my 20s? (Humour me). I loved my 20s—it was the decade during which I moved to London, carved myself a rewarding career, got married, and had some of the most fun I think I’ll ever have in my life. And my clothes? They were all an intrinsic part of that. Working in fashion, suffice to say my outfits are important to me. Am I the perfect dresser? Absolutely not, but the transportive feeling others get when listening to certain songs is what I get when I see certain garments hanging in my wardrobe. I can remember exactly what I wore for the milestone moments in my 20s, be it a day spent in the park with my family ...
19 Looks That Prove Chunky Highlights Are the Coolest Hair Trend Around
When it comes to switching up my hairstyle, I can get a little shy. In fact, I’ve had the same hairstyle (long, bleached, middle-parted) for nearly 10 years. And what’s really quite funny is that despite the fact my hair has looked the same that whole time, the techniques I find myself asking the hairstylist for have varied drastically over the years. First I was asking for ombré, then balayage and now it tends to be something a little more curated. Something along the lines of “babylights but kind of balayage and don’t forget the root stretch, please?” Yep, navigating the world of hair colour can be quite the minefield. And frankly, I’m a little fed up of the same old, same old. Luckily, there’s a new hair colour trend on the b...
5 Winter Trends That Look Perfect With Skinny Jeans
I think it’s safe to say that we no longer need to debate the relevance of skinny jeans in the fashion person’s wardrobe. While they might not be the It pair of the moment, the style has transcended trendiness and is simply a staple everyone should (and likely does already) own. That said, when styling your skinnies, at times you might feel like you’re hitting a sartorial wall as far as how forward you can make your outfit feel—and it’s only natural. You may be used to styling them with whatever was popular at the time you bought them or are simply accustomed to pairing them with your favorite basics. However, today I’m here to both tell and show you how you can make your favourite skinny jeans feel brand-new for winter by com...
Two Years Later, We’re Still Obsessed By the Chanel Logo Tights
In early March 2020, just weeks before the world went into lockdown, Chanel hosted its autumn 2020 runway show. Pairs of models stormed the runway in knee-high boots, strutting in unison while dressed in shades of tweed with bows in their hair. And while Chanel runways are always much-talked-about events, this season, in particular, one accessory seemed to steal the show. The brand debuted a range of logo-embellished CC tights, which the majority of models were wearing on the day, either in a white or black colourway. And as if by some kind of fashion editor intuition, the moment I saw them I just knew they would become a cult favourite. Unsurprisingly, almost two years, the item remains in high demand, appearing on the Instagram feeds of several high-profil...
I Tried 60 Samples of Expensive Beauty Products in 30 Days—Here’s What I’d Buy
I should probably start by clarifying: Even pre-COVID, 50% of my job entailed unboxing, testing, reviewing, and re-testing beauty products. This is not a luxury I take lightly, and while it might seem like a mundane task, my fellow beauty editors and I take a lot of pride in our ability to test and provide thoughtful feedback. (We quite literally receive hundreds of packages each month, so you can understand how this makes up a big part of our job!) Some of this feedback is just between the three of us on Slack, some of it goes to a brand’s PR team or even its CEO, and a lot of the time, it comes directly to you! With so many swipes and swatches under my belt, it takes a lot to impress me, and I’ve admitted on more than one occasion that I’ve become a ...
