This Under-£400 Tote Is the Best Designer Bag I’ve Ever Bought
As a shopping editor, one question I’m asked more than any other is which designer bags are actually worth the investment? Of course, it is a question with many avenues, and the answer will vary massively according to your budget, wardrobe requirements and taste. However, if you’re a natural bargain hunter as I am, you’ll appreciate pieces that offer the most bang for your buck, which is why this season, JW Anderson’s felt tote has shot straight to the top of my lust list.

7 Outfits That Prove XXL Blazers Are the Coolest Thing You Can Own
There never seems to be a great deal of logic when it comes to the shape-shifting nature of fashion silhouettes, yet one thing is clear: These changes always arrive as a point of rebellion from what has come before. Case in point: The oversized silhouette has had a long-standing reign over the runway over the last five years or so, manifesting in everything from smock dresses to wide-leg trousers. The oversized blazer has remained a particular favourite, embraced by minimalists and maximalists alike and translated in a plethora of ways by both high-street and high-end brands. Yes, we are starting to see the body-con fits of the noughties start to creep in, but I believe the XXL blazer has well and truly secured its place in the f...
Spotting Microtrends Is My Speciality—These 8 Feel So Current
You might be curious as to what a microtrend actually is. To be honest, it’s hard to pinpoint, as so many aesthetics are having a moment right now. But generally speaking, microtrends are an offshoot of the overarching trends showcased in the designer collections. The beauty of microtrends is that they don’t require heavy investment on your part and are significantly easier to weave into our daily looks. Often, a single buy can sum up a larger trend very succinctly, allowing you to tap into the mood without compromising your carefully honed personal style or overhauling your existing wardrobe. Sometimes it’s something as simple as a fresh colour combination or a new way to wear your basics. Regardless, a microtrend will encourage you to switch up the way you get dressed, which is...
Kendall Jenner Wore Every Fashion Girl’s Favourite Knitwear-and-Jeans Combo
There’s always a clear difference in trends between London and Los Angeles, which is never more noticeable than during the winter months when L.A. street style regulars are spotted in clothing that could only ever be worn in a place that rarely drops below 15°C. This was proven true this week when Kendall Jenner was spotted leaving a meeting in Beverly Hills wearing a combo that bundled-up Brits could only dream of re-creating in the middle of January: jeans and a knitted vest. For the occasion, Jenner layered a striped vest from ERL, which is quickly selling out at Ssense, on top of a white, short-sleeved tee—something that is quickly becoming her favourite layering piece. She paired the duo with mid-wash blue jeans&nb...
The Only 7 Makeup Trends We Plan on Wearing This Spring/Summer
The idea of fresh skin for spring certainly isn’t groundbreaking, but you’ll be pleased to know it’s not going anywhere for spring/summer 2022. “I love the no-makeup makeup vibe, and I am so excited that natural skin is here to stay,” says Rachel Hardie, Nars senior artist. “Now is the time to use products that are good for the skin with ample skincare benefits,” she adds. Swapping full-coverage foundations for lighter tints has long been the main makeup swap for spring/summer. However, this year, it’s worth looking for formulas that enhance your skin’s natural appearance too. “After the past couple of years of lockdowns, people have fallen back in love with their natural looks,” says Jamie Coombes, international pro artist at Dior Makeup. Look for foundations that contain glow-boost...
Megan Fox Just Got Engaged to Machine Gun Kelly With This Unexpected Ring Trend
Congratulations are in order: Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly are officially engaged. Luckily for us, they recorded the whole thing on video, and it’s just too cute for words. During the proposal under a tree that holds a special meaning in their relationship, Fox was wearing a cutout bra top and black maxi skirt. You didn’t expect her to be in sweats, did you? Now for the best part: The huge engagement ring was custom-designed by Machine Gun Kelly with sweet symbolism. “I know tradition is one ring, but I designed it with Stephen Webster to be two: the emerald (her birthstone) and the diamond (my birthstone) set on two magnetic bands of thorns that draw together as two halves of the same soul forming the obscure heart that is our love,”...
M&S Lingerie Basics Are Still the Best Around—Who’s With Me?
After all these years, it remains the first brand that comes to mind for most of us when we need to update our comfortable everyday bras or find the best no-VPL pants for an upcoming wedding outfit. But it’s not just basic knickers and bras the store excels at. I’ve been known to slip everything from lacy Rosie Huntington-Whiteley sets to shapewear and, more recently, sports bras into my trolley. Having worked as a stylist for almost a decade, I also still go there to top up my kit with solutions like strapless bras or tights for taking with me on photo shoots and fittings with clients. So whether you’re a long-time fan looking for updates or an M&S-lingerie virgin, keep scrolling to find the five things I always stock up on from there. You Deser...
I Just Found the Dream Foundation for People Who Don’t Usually Love Foundation
Foundation is the base of your makeup look, which is quite literally why it’s referred to as a base product. It holds a lot of power, including the power to make or break your finished look. The industry has mastered the full coverage foundations and the super lightweight barely-there foundations, but it’s the somewhere in the middle, medium coverage yet real skin-like finish foundation that is not quite there yet. That was until the queen of makeup Charlotte Tilbury announced the launch of her new foundation, very aptly named Beautiful Skin foundation. This is basically a foundation for people who don’t like foundation, instead of the traditional, heavy finish you might expect from Charlotte Tilbury. This is the perfect product if you want a lighter and more natural fini...
Low-Key Luxury Is Set to Be 2022’s Key Aesthetic
From the fine fabrics of The Row and Totême’s elevated basics to Raey’s oversized silhouettes and Jil Sander’s muted colour-blocking, it takes a mere glance over the industry’s most popular brands to see that wardrobe basics with a twist are a hot commodity. While the low-key luxury look definitely feels of the moment, it has been around in some form for decades, but the last few years have seen it really gain momentum. Yes, the rise of minimalism has certainly fuelled the demand for a more stripped-back aesthetic, yet this sartorial shift is so much more and reflects a wider change of consumer mindset.

Everyone in Hollywood Owns This Wardrobe Basic, and You Should, Too
“As someone who wears a lot of high-waisted and fitted trousers and skirts and is also short at 5’1”, I was repeatedly finding that longer tops and jumpers were ruining the silhouette of my outfits. I have a few cropped options, but even then, you don’t get the smooth line that a bodysuit offers. I wanted one that felt luxe and grown-up and flattering, which is precisely what the Wolford bodysuit provides—it’s because it’s made out of a thick, stretchy, and hosiery-like material, and with their expertise in undergarments and controlwear, it’s no great wonder that its comfortable and form hugging without being clingy.” Convinced? Me too. Scroll below to shop my edit of the Wolford bodysuit collection. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you ar...
