Holly Willoughby Just Wore This Year’s Most In-Demand Party Dress
Over the last few years, The Vampire’s Wife has been the fashion savvy celeb’s go-to for red carpet glamour, and we have no doubt it will remain so for many years to come. But, we are always excited to discover new names, and this season we might’ve just discovered a new party brand to fall in love with. We’ve lost count of the number of Saloni bow and heart-embellished dresses that we’ve seen both on Instagram and in A-list parties. Coming in a luxe velvet finish and with chic long sleeves, it’s a bit of a departure from the ‘naked dresses’ that have been proliferating in recent seasons, and we’re not that sad about it.

Where a Fashion Editor Would Tell You to Get Your Winter Boots From
Whether you have a penchant for pointed knee-highs or a crush on classic Chelseas, it’s fair to say there’s more than enough to choose from when it comes to winter boots. While there will always be those time-tested designer labels that we can rely on for sturdy shoes, the last five or so years have seen the high street up its winter-boot game, with the likes of & Other Stories and M&S becoming a fashion editor’s secret weapon. Well, this season is no different, and we have the evidence to prove it. To bring you the best of the best, I asked round my fellow editors to find out which brands they always turn to for winning winter boots. The results were as eclectic as you’d expect, covering high-end offerings such as Paris Texas and Aeydē ...
12 Celebs Who Represented For the House of Vivienne Westwood on the 2021 Red Carpets
Vivienne Westwood captivated the TikTok generation after the house’s pearl bas relief choker became the most sought-after spring/summer 2021 accessory on the app. The brand’s affinity with a new, younger clientele meant that its signature designs became even more in-demand by stylists of emerging talent. Westwood’s decadent corsetry and British punk outfits are always spectacular on the red carpet, but in 2021 there were 12 celebrity fashion moments that were a cut above the rest. Dua Lipa was the one who really validated TikTok’s love for Vivienne Westwood. A few weeks after the ’90s pearl choker went viral on the app, Lipa wore head-to-toe Vivienne Westwood to collect her trophies at the 2021 BRIT Awards. Although she changed from a yellow minidress for the ...
8 Cool Ways to Wear A Dress This Winter
The appeal of dresses is how easy they are to wear and that they require little to no styling. This is certainly true in summer, however in winter it gets a little trickier as you have the cold to contend with and layers become vital. I personally find myself wearing jeans and trousers with a jumper far more appealing than my usual uniform, a dress. However there are some styling tricks that you can do to make your dresses more winter appropriate, and below I’ve listed 8 in particular that I’ve saved recently. If you opt for a simple slip dress or black dress, you can use it as a clever layering piece and wear it over rollnecks or long-sleeved tops. A dress, blazer and boots will be a trio that won’t need any introduction to you, however it’s a classic winter outfit that will always look e...
The Up-and-Coming Brand That’s Creating the Best Basics
The world of fashion basics hasn’t always been a particularly exciting one. Historically speaking, a sensible sweater and layering vest weren’t exactly considered the height of sophistication. But over the last decade or so, the fashion industry has clearly started to tune in to the value of this wardrobe category and is now delivering brands that not only make buying basics an appealing prospect but also elevate them to cult-favourite must-haves. While it only launched in 2018, Pangaia is one brand that has stormed the basics landscape with its rainbow of staples. I’m talking hoodies, tracksuits, sweaters, T-shirts, and everything in between—and the industry is certainly paying attention. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Prediction: Everyone Will Want This Designer Bag in 2022
As far as we’re concerned, no designer handbag collection is complete without the addition of a Saint Laurent bag. We believe them to be just as classic as Chanel, Hermès, Celine and Dior, and we think they deserve to be given just as much consideration if you’re fortunate enough to be contemplating a new designer handbag purchase. Founded in 1961, the French fashion house’s designs tapped into the utilitarianism which was embraced by many designers at the time by way of tailoring and heavier fabrications. Although they never served as a primary focus of the brand’s founder, Yves Saint Laurent, the bags he designed were approached with the same goal: to create items of quality, practicality and longevity.

11 of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s Best Beauty Looks and the Products She Uses
It’s no secret that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has been blessed with some pretty great genetics. Those sky-high cheekbones, doll-like skin and famous pillowy lips are famous all around the world. But what we love most about Rosie’s beauty looks is that she’s not afraid to experiment. Her everyday style consists of a model-off-duty natural vibe we all wish we were able to emulate. It’s that healthy skin, a touch of pink lip balm and neat, brushed-up brows that make the look polished yet effortless. But it’s Huntington-Whiteley’s love of all things beauty and her more playful eye looks, bold lip colours and glossy skin that have made her one of our favourite beauty muses. Keep scrolling for some of our all-time favourite Rosie Huntington-Whit...
Tessa Thompson in Black and White
The film takes an almost modern approach, causing the audience, at first glance, to question whether the characters could “pass” by any sense of the definition. “They look at Ruth and I and thought, ‘Well, those are two Black women, like passing for what?’ And I think that was really intentional for Rebecca. She wanted the audience to come in always knowing and assuming that you’re seeing two Black women, particularly for Ruth, that you’re never suspending your disbelief,” Thompson ruminates. While colourism is a familiar burden through BIPOC communities, outside of Black circles, “passing” in a new concept. Thompson even laughs while remembering that some people thought “passing” meant the actress had passed away when the posters for the film first came out. The curtain was pulled back on...
Best of 2021: The Red Carpet Fashion Trends that Defined Celebrity Style
The red carpet officially reopened for 2021, and the best-dressed stars of the year made it worth the wait. Of the most memorable moments, our favourite celebrity fashion trends were surreal gold hardware, colourful ostrich feathers, leather opera gloves, celestial caped sleeves, and extreme cut-outs — and we know the best way to style them. The appeal of surreal gold hardware started at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival with Bella Hadid’s breathtaking branched lungs gown. The black dress, designed by Daniel Roseberry for surrealist atelier Schiaparelli, featured a fitted, long-sleeve silhouette with subtle leg of mutton sleeves and a completely exposed, open-bust. Hadid’s bust was covered by a necklace with a massive pair of branched lungs for the pendant. Zendaya also wowed us at...
How to Spot a Fashion Classic, From a Net-a-Porter Buyer
If you’re an avid fashion fan, you might recognise Page from the street style roundups of London, Milan, Paris and New York—usually snapped with a fellow NET-A-PORTER buyer, phone in hand, en route to her next show. When it comes to talking about fashion classics, you won’t find a greater authority than Page, who has honed her personal style down to a well-curated edit of pieces from cult brands such as Totême, Saint Laurent and The Row. After all, when you spend your time shaping the stock of a luxury e-commerce giant, you probably get a pretty good sense of what is, and what is not, worth our time and attention. But as we all know, deciding what fashion items to inve...
Jennifer Aniston and J.Lo Both Wore the Denim Trend I’m Replacing Skinnies With
I wouldn’t say that Jennifer Aniston and Jennifer Lopez have similar personal styles. The latter’s tends to be much more bold and experimental. But here they are wearing identical outfit formulas in the same week in the same city. Who would have thought? They were both photographed in Los Angeles wearing black turtleneck sweaters, flared jeans and top-handle bags. Are you taking notes yet? Flared jeans happen to be one of my favourite denim trends right now—one that I’m willing to swap out my beloved skinny jeans for. In my opinion, they’re so much dressier than skinnies and help you look instantly polished. Scroll down to see how both well-dressed women style the same outfit combo and to shop similar pieces for yourself. You Dese...
