Mark My Words, These Cult Coats Will Sell Out by Tomorrow Night
If you’re fast enough off the mark, tomorrow sees the latest drop of Charlotte Simone’s Insta-famous coats arriving just in time for winter. You’ll know the ones: Retro in feel, recognisable in their fuzzy collars and cuffs, neat in fit (usually belted) and swishy of skirt, the British designer’s vibrant and joyful pieces of outerwear have become the ultimate fashion pick-me-up during dark winter months—or any month in the UK for that matter—for minimalists and maximalists alike.

From Rosie HW’s to Zoë Kravitz’s, 11 Celebrity Knitwear Trends We Love
We can’t get enough of knitwear at the moment. Through these dark early days of the year, wrapping yourself in wool really is the only answer. If, like us, you’re feeling a little uninspired with your current sweater collection (or worse—you’ve realised you have moths), there’s no need to panic. Why? Because winter 2021 is the season for knitwear trends, with yarns of all types taking on various forms from co-ords to jumper dresses and everything in between. If there were ever a time to get playful and expand your collection, it’s now. We turned to our favourite celebrities for some inspiration on the most exciting and wearable styles for the new season, and they’ve certainly delivered. As soon as we saw Alexa Chung’s patchwork number, we knew...
Expensive-Looking Loungewear Sets All Have This One Thing In Common
I need not tell you that loungewear is big news, especially as we head into winter. For some, before 2020, loungewear was an after-thought or, at the very least, not something you got excited about shopping for. That, however, has all changed. Gone are the days when flannel PJs and grey joggers were your only loungewear points of contact—now, chic loungewear (the type you wouldn’t mind answering the door or even heading to the shops in) is all the rage. Now, dominating the retail space, there are more loungewear sets out there to buy than ever. Herein lies the problem. Which loungewear sets look most premium (even when they’re not)? I believe the answer is ribbed loungewear sets. Hear me out. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what ...
If You Missed Out on a Beauty Advent Calendar, These Gift Sets Are Even Better
And I want to be clear that I am not knocking beauty advent calendars here. I totally get their appeal and I can see how the good points outweigh the bad. But personally, for the first time this year, I haven’t got one. It wasn’t an intentional thing, mind you. I just didn’t sign up for waitlists, and by the time I went to purchase (Space NK’s was a total feat), my first choice was sold out. I am now a beauty advent calendar-less beauty editor. But the truth is, I’m kind of OK with it. Not because I think they’re a waste of money, but because there are some other options out there that I, personally, would prefer. This year, beauty brands have seriously upped the ante when it comes to luxury gift sets. They costs about the same as an advent calendar and, granted contain fewer product...
Winter’s 8 Biggest Makeup Trends, According to Celebrity Makeup Artists
As someone who possesses very little skill when it comes to makeup application, I must admit that I have a somewhat unhealthy obsession with the art. I could watch people applying their makeup for hours on end and frantically save every beautiful makeup look that comes my way on Instagram. And this is never truer than when it comes to winter. Winter makeup trends make me go weak at the knees. Despite the fact that my makeup skills are basic at best and that my day-to-day look involves bare skin and maybe a lashing of mascara if I’m feeling someway special, I couldn’t be more in awe of the super-pretty makeup looks that flood social media over winter. With parties in abundance and our social lives fluttering, winter is when makeup trends really get the chance to come into the...
Is Tom Daley Diving Into His Own Knitwear Line?
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, this can only mean handmade Tom Daley knits for everyone, but we can’t help but wonder if the diver will instead be launching his own ‘how-to’ kits instead. Either way, we’ll soon find out. In September this year, Daley shared a vide...
The Underwear Brand We Always Rave About Has Unreal Cyber Week Deals
It’s a universally known fact amongst women that finding the perfect tights is darn near impossible. All those ladders and saggy crotches of our youth have left us scarred, tarnishing all future winter outfit choices and party seasons to come. Let alone shapewear— have you ever tried squeezing on a pair of too-small ‘shorts’ before an event and felt good about yourself? No, us neither. That was, until Heist came along. Seriously, we’re not even being dramatic— all the editors in our office agree that this one brand has saved the whole idea of hosiery and so-called shapewear for us. In fact, if you’re a regular WWWUK reader you’ll probably already be familiar with the brand, mainly because we don’t stop banging on about them. It started with the perfect pair of tights (The Thirty...
PSA: Zara Has Just Created the Perfect Party Top
When I went back to snap up the top for myself, I was sad to find it had already sold out. Then, today, when more stock appeared, I knew I had to share it with you before it inevitably sold out again. Although it has since sold out again, more stock is on the way—I recommend signing up for the email notification to ensure you’re one of the first to know when it does. Of course, I’ll also keep tabs for you and sound the alarm when it reappears. If you love Zara’s sparkly top as much as I do, click through to add your name to the wait list. Then continue on to shop my favourite sparkly buys from Zara, and on the rest of the high-street. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

I’ve Done the Research, and These Liquid Lipsticks Actually Last All Night
A lip stain or liquid lipstick are my absolute go-tos, and as I have lips that are sensitive to anything too drying, I’ve tentatively tested a lot of them to find the ones that are worthy of a place in my makeup draw. My quest is to find lip products that don’t make your lips feel too tight and dry while lasting all night. A stain is always the best option for undisputed lasting power so you aren’t left with the ring around your mouth when the middle of your shade has worn away with all the canapés and fizz. A good lip stain will need touching up infrequently, shouldn’t feather or bleed out of the lip line and can be applied precisely without the need for a lip liner. Here are the 10 lip stains that I’ll have on rotation this party season. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are lookin...
20 Shapewear Staples That Come With 5-Star Reviews as Standard
There are areas of our bodies that we would all like a bit of extra control on, whether it’s a bit of lift in the bust or butt or a little added support in our hips and thigh area. There’s certainly nothing wrong, either, with turning to a pair of Spanx or shaping shorts when you’re in need of a little oomph—celebs do it all the time, especially when it comes to walking the red carpet. Luckily, the market is chock-full of great shapewear that promises to smooth out any lumps or bumps where you want to. Today, we’re honing in on all the best tummy-control shapewear that we think is 100% worth the investment. These are pieces you can wear whenever you feel the need to trim your tummy, shape your waistline and support your back. Ready to s...
I Tried 4 TikTok Clothes Hacks—Here’s What Actually Worked
There’s a lot to be learned on TikTok. From innovative recipes to dance routines and homeware hacks, the app is essentially a one-stop shop for tutorials and how-tos, no matter the subject. In fact, learning is such a large part of the platform’s ethos the hashtag #LearnOnTikTok currently has over 200 billion views. As the social media editor that I am, this week, I decided to delve into the world of TikTok tutorials and see what I could learn about clothes. As luck would have it, clothing hacks are quite the trending topic on the app, and it seems like every influencer (and their dog) has an idea to share. There are those who have found umpteen ways to wear a silk scarf as a shirt and others who are using kirby grips to alter the waist size of skirts. Shoelaces, I’ve discovered, have...
This One Product Is Ideal for Those Who Want an Easy 5-Minute Face
However, over the years, I have watched virtually every contouring video and tutorial around, and I have learned that the premise can be easily adapted to fit in with my low-maintenance makeup routine. It turns out following the contouring rule of “3” is quick and easy and can be executed with just one or two products. To nail your contour every time, just create a 3 shape on both sides of your face with your dark contour product—starting from the centre of the forehead, running along and down the hairline, following under the cheekbone and drawing back out and under the jawline. Then simply swipe the highlighting shade over the top of the cheekbone, and you’ve got a low-key contoured base. Yes, it is that easy. And the best bit is I have found a whole bunch of product...
