Ariana Grande Wore a Micro Minidress With the Tallest Heels We’ve Ever Seen
Ariana Grande is a woman of many talents, from hitting whistle tones to writing songs that literally anyone can bop to. *Plays “Positions” on repeat.* Another of her more underrated talents is walking—not to mention singing and dancing—in heels that any normal person would break their ankle(s) in. Her latest pair, however, is arguably the “7 Rings” singer’s most impressive yet. Last week, while filming an episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Grande wore a pair of pink-and-white sparkly platforms that had to be at least seven inches tall. The heels, which were secured with ankle straps adorned with the brand GCDS’s logo, first debuted at the brand’s S/S 22 runwa...

Taylor Swift Just Wore the Perfect Blazer-and-Leggings Combo for Winter
If I’m honest, Taylor Swift hasn’t always been one of the celebrities at the top of my seasonal outfit inspo list, however recently the singer has been pulling some seriously chic looks out of the bag. Case in point: this weekend Taylor stepped out in what is undeniably the most perfect winter blazer. From LA-based brand Anine Bing, it comes in a classic houndstooth check, double-breasted fit and, silhouette-wise, it’s just the right amount of boxy.

Cosy, Chic, and Classic—I Really Like These 22 Woollen Blazers
As someone who wears blazers almost every day (at least, the days I venture outside of the house), I’m so glad wool blazers for women exist. As we all know, wool is one of the toastiest fibres out there, and selecting a wool blazer means I can continue to wear them even on the coldest of days without feeling a chill. Don’t get me wrong; I still have a puffer coat and a camel robe coat which I can don when I need more coverage and insulation. However, more often than not, a wool blazer is the outerwear I reach for most days because it has the power to make even the most casual of outfits feel more polished. I tend to wear my wool blazer mostly with jeans and a cable knit jumper, but as Karina Marriott and Jessica Skye prove, it looks just as sleek with midi skirts. You Deserve to ...

The Newest Blonde Hair Colour Trends Will Convince You to Go Blonde
Every once in a while, I ask myself, Should I go blonde? I’m a die-hard brunette, so the answer is usually no, but sometimes the blonde hair trends are so good that they force me to reconsider. Right now is one of those times. Blonde hair has never been better, and it’s due to tons of traditional blonde rule-breaking and innovation. This year’s biggest blonde trends are all about dimension. “We have seen a lot of solid and deeper roots to emulate or reflect natural regrowth,” says Richy Kandasamy, colourist and R+Co Collective member. No one wants harsh regrowth lines anymore—everyone is keeping it soft. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be.

7 Non-Boring Ways to Wear Jeans This Winter
As cold weather sets in, it’s no surprise a lot of us will take the easy route and reach for our reliable wardrobe essentials. You know, the blazer that’ll never let you down–from work to weekend plans–and the white T-shirt that has been worn, and washed, more times than we could count. Then there’s jeans. While skinny jeans have taken a back seat this year (no one wants to feel restricted in super tight denim), other styles are leading as the starting point to every great winter outfit we’re finally ready to wear. Sure, jeans are an easy option when getting dressed but that doesn’t mean they have to be boring. And we’re going to show you a whole host of simple (but again, not boring) ways to wear some of the best pairs. From the flared jeans that&...
MTV Europe Music Awards 2021: All the Epic Celebrity Fashion of the Night
After going virtual last year, the 2021 MTV Europe Music Awards were held in-person in Budapest, Hungary, at the Papp László Budapest Sportaréna. Hosted by American rapper Saweetie, the awards saw a long list of the world’s best musicians — both nominated and in attendance — with Ed Sheeran, Maluma, Måneskin, Yungblud, Kim Petras, and Griff all performing live. And while the performances are amazing, one of the other exciting aspects of the EMAs was the celebrity fashion, and as with many music award shows, they did not disappoint. Rita Ora brought glamour to the red carpet in a black jumpsuit with a feathered bodice and feathered train. Griff went for her signature cute aesthetic, and wore a pastel two-piece set with ornate lace, pearl, and silk details. We loved that Maluma went fo...
Saweetie Wore 9 Different Outfits to the MTV EMAs, Including a Sexy Squid Game-Inspired Dress
Saweetie hosted and performed at the 2021 MTV Europe Music Awards held at the Papp László Budapest Sportaréna on Sunday, 14 Nov. in Hungary. Over-the-top outfits are Saweetie’s specialty, and for the EMAs she wore a total of nine spectacular looks — including two different dresses for the red carpet, and seven outfits for her performances and hosting duties. Saweetie represented for the house of Givenchy on the red carpet by wearing two different dresses by the brand. The first was a sparkling black-and-brown ombré halter-neck dress, and Saweetie’s second outfit was a black lace dress accessorised with a veiled hat. While her red carpet gowns were gorgeous, her performance outfits really took it to the next level. Saweetie started out by performing her songs “Best Friend&...
Every Celebrity Picture I Look At Right Now Features This One Pair of Flat Shoes
Loafers might not sound like the most exciting footwear choice, however over the past week I have noticed that they are not only the most popular shoe this winter, but they’re becoming a solid red carpet choice. Maybe it’s all that time out of heels, but the likes of Little Simz and Dakota Johnson are swapping stilettos for loafers. When it comes to the style, there are two camps here. Either celebrities are opting for a really chunky track sole, which helps to toughen up dainty or overly pretty looks. I’m also spotting lots of patent pairs with chain detailing across the foot. Of course you can’t talk about loafers without mentioning Gucci, and the likes of Dakota Johnson have been wearing the horsebit loafers in brown leather.

The Big Designer Brands Bringing New Life to Old Clothes
For Gen Z, a generation that has grown up with access to resale platforms such as Depop, preloved fashion is simply an integrated part of the way they shop, but what will be notable is how this behaviour adapts as they move into their 30s and 40s and their spending power increases. As luxury brands dip their toe into the resale sector, it foreshadows a more commercialised future for second-hand (an industry that hasn’t exactly been known for its mass appeal or polish), one that meets the market’s changing needs. You need only look at Gucci Vault to see the potential. With professionally shot imagery and an enviable product edit, the platform sells pieces from the brand’s vintage back-catalogue alongside upcycled collaborations with up-and-coming designers and packs all the g...
