I’ve Been a Wardrobe Stylist for 10 Years—This Is My 6-Piece French Capsule
The French-girl wardrobe is fascinating for a number of reasons: it’s simple, timeless, and effortless. And the quest for the right pieces to achieve it can easily become a lifelong endeavor. We could spend all day figuring out how to emulate the key elements that make French style so good, and if you’re a consistent Who What Wear reader, you know that we do spend a considerable amount of time on the topic. We’re hardly the only sartorial Francophiles, either. We chatted with an NYC-based wardrobe stylist who is also enamored with the simplicity of French style. Meet Bryn Taylor, a stylist of 10 years who recently launched her own brand, Ouisa, which she hopes will help others to hone their c...
Black Friday Is Always So Good for Homeware—and I’ve Found the Best Pieces
Black Friday can be a real assault on your email inbox. Every brand you’ve ever bought anything from will be sending you constant updates about offers, and it’s easy to fall into the trap of buying something simply because it is a little bit cheaper. As with all sale shopping, it’s best to use it as an opportunity to buy classic or investment pieces you already need or have been considering purchasing for months, rather than being tempted by throwaway pieces just because of the slashed price tag. Many people use Black Friday as a time to give their home some TLC. We’ve all seen the videos of people fighting over a half-price TV; however, Black Friday is now a huge digital event, with many homeware offers spread out over the full month. Black Frid...
Zara’s Sale Is Coming—Here’s Our Edit of What’s Worth Buying
Zara is known for having two major sales: one in the summer months and that starts on Boxing Day. Naturally, we’re here to talk about the latter. Regardless of the brand or discounts, we always advise caution when it comes to shopping during markdowns, so you’ll find a few tips and tricks for shopping the Zara sale below. Firstly, have a look through your wardrobe and have a think about what you need and what works with your current pieces. Then, when browsing on the site, add pieces you love. But before you check out, it’s worth thinking about how much wear you’ll get out of them. A good rule is to know if you’ll wear it 30 times or more, which is a great way to ensure you’re shopping as mindfully and sustainably as you can. You Deserve ...
& Other Stories, Mango and H&M Have the Most Expensive-Looking Black Friday Buys
As more brands have sales throughout the entire month, Black Friday now seems like Black November. But today is the official date everyone waits in anticipation for. While some of the best clothing deals have already kicked off, & Other Stories, H&M and Mango are just starting. Fear not, though, as we’re only here to talk about the crème de la crème. You know, those premium-looking pieces that have an air of high end, but still keep the high street price tag. And seeing as these three brands have added discounts, you can get these gems for even less. With H&M’s wool coats, Mango’s luxe leather boots and & Other Stories sequin dress that you won’t actually believe is from the high street, consider this your guide to sho...
I’ve Tried Hundreds of Beauty Products—This Brand Gives the Best Value for Money
To access the products, the idea is that members pay a small monthly fee of £15, that allows them to shop at heavily discounted prices. If you don’t want to commit to a membership? You can still buy the products, just at a higher price. And I must admit, when it first launched, my thoughts were that it provided an interesting and niche business model but would likely only appeal to serious beauty buffs and have a relatively short lifespan. But boy was I wrong. Many years later, Beauty Pie is going stronger than ever. With each new product launch, my love for the brand grows a little more. Take, for example, the best-selling Triple Hyaluronic Acid Peptide Serum, which even my non-industry friends swear by; the Detox Shampoo, which uses activated charcoal and amino acids to de...

I’m Buying My Christmas Gifts from the Black Friday Sales—Here’s What I Like
I don’t know about you, but I get a bit overwhelmed by the Black Friday madness. Usually, the first hint of an IRL sale and I run in the opposite direction to avoid the flurry of shoppers. When it comes to online sales, though, it’s a different experience. I’m not one of these people who impulse buys just because one of my favourite sites has a sale on – I think before I shop. So instead, I’ve been adding items to my online wish lists this month with Christmas presents in mind. And I believe this is the smart way to tackle the Black Friday sales and get ahead of gifting. But if I happen to see something that I need (read: want) along the way, who am I to argue with fate? You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online....
I’ve Been Recommending This Viral TikTok Product To Everyone I Know
BYO blush is actually the first of its kind as it is the world’s first colour changing blush oil. I was instantly pulled in by the oil-based formula as it sits perfectly on top of skincare products for the perfect no-makeup makeup look. As someone who is all about the glow I really enjoy layering this blush oil over the top of a powder based one for an added pop of colour. It isn’t just the glow that I love about it, but the rosy effect it leaves behind too. I like to apply it one of two ways, either by applying a stroke on each side of my cheeks and dabbing it in with my fingers or by bending it in with a big fluffy blush brush. I think this blush would work great for all skin types and skin tones. It’s super hydrating and really easy to build up without the worry of it dr...
29 Epic Party Hairstyles That Are Actually Easy to Achieve
It’s that time. After months of gradual invitations creeping back in, party season has hit like a whirlwind of glitter—Christmas parties with colleagues you’ve only really seen on Zoom for the past 18 months, pub meet-ups with friends and, of course, New Year’s Eve. The month of tinsel and Mariah Carey is back, and that means it’s time to team your outfits with the best party hairstyles to match. “Whatever type, texture or length of your hair, the party season is the perfect opportunity to try something different,” says Martin Crean owner of Mode Hair.

Do Your Clothes Bring You Positive Vibes? These Ones Do
I’ll be the first to admit, I’m a bit of a novice when it comes to astrology and spirituality. I don’t know the character traits of an earth sign or the significance of a full moon, and don’t even try to ask me what happens when mercury is in retrograde. Yet, in our ever-changing, dynamic society, it appears that non-religious spirituality is as prevalent as ever, with people incorporating mindful, conscious practices into their everyday lives. From crystal-infused water bottles to healing crystal gift sets, more and more touchpoints are being created daily in order to connect people to their spiritual side. And, of course, fashion is no exception. According to fashion search engine, Lyst, Fashion Karma is a trend of the rise, with people now wanting their clothes to give them “p...
4 French Women on the Only Anti-Ageing Products They Trust
I’m going to save you the preamble of why we love French women and just cut to the chase: they do everything so effortlessly. And, as if their flair for style wasn’t enough, they also know how to look after their skin well. Mais bien sûr. I’ve read plenty of pieces over the years about how French women do everything they can to ensure their skin is as glowing as possible. They don’t wear too much makeup and they invest in anti-ageing skincare much earlier than us across the channel. But is that true? I decided to get in touch with four French women who I admire and ask them what’s really behind great skin. Keep scrolling for everything you need to know. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be. It beg...
Is Tom Daley Diving Into His Own Knitwear Line? No, But It’s Pretty Damn Close
Tom Daley has become somewhat of a knitwear maven this year, and the internet has been truly here for it. It all started back in lockdown, when the diver said that he’d taken to knitting to help with mindfulness — and during the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, Daley’s knitting went viral. Now? It appears that the athlete is set to start his own line of knitwear products. Daley shared a teaser image on his adorable knitting account, @madewithlovebytomdaley, with the words “launching soon” plastered across it. For many of us, our first thoughts were a collection of handmade Tom Daley knits for everyone, but it turns out that it’s not quite the case. Tom Daley is instead launching 15 knit kits for beginners all the way to intermediate knitters, with prices ranging from £50 ...
