We Were the First People to Try The Body Shop’s New Foundation, and It’s Good
“I’ll put it out there: I really don’t like foundation. Not because I don’t like the way it makes me look but because I hate the way it feels on my skin. I almost always wear skin tints over foundations, and because this stuff promised to be a blend of the two, I wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt. “First of all, can I just say that I really love the packaging? The fact it’s totally recyclable is brilliant because I hate having to chuck pump foundations in the general rubbish bin. The little spatula is also brilliant for scooping foundation out of the bottle. Second, I’m a huge fan of the natural, fresh scent—it really brings a sense of zen to my morning routine. “I tried shade Medium 1W, which was a little dark for me, but that’s how I like it. The formula and finish are both good...

6 Winter Outfits We Love for Everything From Country Walks to Beach Trips
There’s no denying that making plans in winter can be tricky. Leaving heated homes to venture out into the cold can make it more tempting to send those “sorry, I’ve double-booked myself” messages. But careful planning and outfit prep make it easier to attend those dates in your busy diaries. The joys of winter (including hot drinks on repeat and getting excited about a hint of sunshine) are made even better by keeping warm. As long as you’re clever when it comes to layering, attending any outdoor event (even if it’s just a weekend stroll) will be another joy to add to the list. Luckily, Nasty Gal is a go-to when it comes to outdoorsy outfits. High up on the list are super-warm puffer coats, fleece cover-ups, sweater sets and of course, chunky boots to wear with cosy...
I Think This Is Going to Be the Most Wanted Coat Trend of 2022
Since BC (before COVID), the leather coat has been an integral part of most fashion people’s uniforms. And like most trends in recent years, it all began with Bottega. Ever since that brown buttery-soft Bottega Veneta style stormed the A/W 20 runway, the love for leather outerwear (be it real, faux or vegan) has increased tenfold. With Prada putting leather coats back on the runway for S/S 22 in oversized styles, we predict they’ll only get more popular. Far removed from their previous Buffy the Vampire Slayer comparisons thanks to beautiful tailoring and rich colour palettes—think glossy caramel, chocolate brown, teal and terracotta shades—it’s time to try out the investment buy.

I Love Retro Style, and These 8 Outfits Really Do It for Me
Historically, the world of Instagram fashion has been divided into two camps: the beige-clad minimalists whose idea of a dream wardrobe is 100% The Row and the style extroverts who love a good print clash and live by the dictum “more is more.” While this division still exists, in recent years, it feels like the boundaries have blurred, and, in part thanks to the revival of retro trends, there has been an increased interest in incorporating print and dramatic silhouettes into our day-to-day basics. The result is an eclectic mix of ensembles that manage to feel nostalgic, fresh and fun all at the same time. As a self-confessed vintage-fashion obsessive, I have, of course, been very much on board with this new approach, and after a year of separation...

Is there anything more satisfying than finding your nude lipstick?

Fashion Maven André Leon Talley Dies At 73
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Cindy Ord / Getty André Leon Talley, a fashion legend who made his mark as the former creative director of Vogue, has reportedly passed away. Talley was battling a long-term illness, according to still-developing reports. TMZ was among the first to report the passing of Talley after confirming the news with a source who says that the iconic fashion maven passed away on Tuesday (Jan. 18) in White Plains, N.Y. More from TMZ: Talley was instrumental to Vogue’s vision and direction in the ’80s and ’90s, when he worked his way up the magazine ranks to eventually become the news director — which he helmed from ’83 to ’87 — and then ascended to Vogue’s creative director in ’88. He held that post for a good 7 or so years, and before long … he was heading up...
The Byredo Scents That Are Worth Your Money, Ranked by Me
At this point, I’ve smelled almost every Byredo fragrance there is. It’s easy to see why the Stockholm-based brand is so popular; in addition to the incredibly chic and minimal packaging, the unisex scents are as unique as they come yet undoubtedly wearable and intriguing as well. Trust me—everyone will ask you what scent you’re wearing when you spray on Byredo, and anything you buy from the brand is worthy of the price tag, but I’m here to help you narrow it down (there are so many good ones to choose from). For my own fragrance-buying mission and for your fragrance-buying missions (I’m here to serve), I asked Byredo to send me samples of their best-selling scents, and they kindly obliged. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been swit...
Kate Middleton Wore a £20 Zara Jumper With 2022’s “It” Trouser Trend
No one makes fast fashion look expensive quite like Kate Middleton, but after looking into the contents of the outfit she wore at her and Prince William’s first public outing of 2022, it’s clear that she’s outdone herself this time. For an official visit to the Foundling Museum in London, Middleton did what she does best—i.e., rewearing her favourite wardrobe items from affordable brands like Zara and the UK-based label Jigsaw. In addition to her sold-out blue coat from the latter brand, which she first wore in January 2020, Middleton grabbed a £20 black turtleneck jumper from Zara and a pair of matching Jigsaw trousers that just so happen to be majorly trendy right now. The high-waisted slacks are wide-leg and ...
