9 Easy Bun Looks That Prove It Is the Ultimate Low-Key Hairstyle
Scrolling through Instagram the other night (as one does for 10 hours when they should really be sleeping), I spotted a scarily relatable beauty meme on Lunya’s Instagram account: “78% of women reading this are wearing their hair in a weird bun right now.” Um, yep! I thought as I immediately commented with a raised-hand emoji. Even though I feel extremely lucky to be able to WFH and carry on my beauty-editor duties from the comfort of my couch or bed (don’t judge me), it’s put an indisputable cramp in my hairstyling routine. When it comes to my strands, I’m pretty low-maintenance to begin with, so you can imagine the effect little to no human contact has had on my day-to-day hair MO. Most days, I want a hairstyle that’s easy and...
The Autumn It Jacket That Will Look Good All-Year Round
Fashion lovers can be divided into two camps: summer-philes who will always be the first to go tights-free at the first sign of spring (and cling to their broderie anglaise frocks until plummeting temperates threaten pneumonia) and the cold-weather crew who plod through the balmy months in black dresses until they can dive head first into a pile of chunky knitwear come September.

The 6 Winter Boots Our Editors Swear By
Like all cold-weather staples, the trusty winter boot is something we all come to rely on heavily from November onwards, but shopping-wise, it comes with a slight surfeit of options: high-street or high-end, coloured or neutral, leather or suede. Finding a style that matches your needs can be an overwhelming task. That’s where we come in. You can consider us your shopping road testers, so if you’re short on time, we’ll try to offer up a more concise, editor-approved line-up. In the winter-boot category, we all have our personal faves that we’ve worn to death, and so with winter almost in full swing, we thought we’d share these wardrobe winners with you.

So Many It Girls Agree on This Affordable Winter Footwear Choice
As soon as the winter weather begins to set in, I immediately find myself questioning how to make each of my outfits as cosy as possible. Of course, the addition of a puffer jacket or a beanie hat can be helpful, and a cashmere scarf doesn’t go unappreciated, but on the footwear front, there always seems to be a lack of shoes that provide that warm, fuzzy feeling. However, in recent months, just about every major It girl has managed to find a solution to fill the cosy-shaped hole in my footwear rotation. Enter Ugg boots. Yes, the divisive shoes of the early aughts are back. And while there has been much debate about whether Ugg boots are in fact shoes—much like the debate that questions whether leggings can justifiably be worn as trousers—it is evident that i...
Winter Basics Don’t Get Better Than This (Did I Mention They’re All Under £100?)
One of the questions I’m most frequently asked is, “Do I need to spend more money on my basics?” The answer, in my opinion, is no. While the saying “you get what you pay for” absolutely applies in some instances, this isn’t the rule of thumb for every single possible item. I love the high street—many of my most-worn finds hail from it. So I firmly believe that, yes, you can find excellent winter basics under £100. You just need to know where to look for the best ones. Not only do I believe it, but I also have proof! Scroll on to see 27 winter basics under £100 I really rate. They’re not all pared back and minimal—there is a dash of colour and print in my edit—but they’re pieces I know you’ll love and wear year in, year out.

20 Pairs of Shoes You’ll Want to Wear to Every Type of Wedding
When it comes to wedding guest dressing, there’s little room for throwing an opportunistic look together. As soon as that invite drops on the doormat/in your inbox, you’ll spend more time questioning what to wear, how you’ll stay dry and what bag will be most useful than how you’ll travel there or what to gift the happy couple with. But the biggest conundrum is definitely choosing a pair of shoes. If you’ve got a slew of weddings stretching throughout the year, you’ll happily recoup lots of cost per wear out of a sensible but not-too-safe style in nude or metallic, preferably with a heel height that’ll leave your sense of humour intact after 12 hours on your feet. If you want to ensure that nothing will hinder you being first on...
I’ve Tried Every Virtually Candle Out There and These 9 Are Amazing
Nothing gets me excited for winter quite like a really great candle. Whether I’m throwing open the curtains first thing or snuggling down on a cold, dark evening, you better believe I’ve got a candle burning. The thing I love the most about candles is, unlike perfumes, you can chop and change them depending on your mood. While I might like to burn a fresh, up-and-at-em sort of candle to get me ready for the day, come evening I want to be enveloped by warm, cosy scents. It is because I use candles in such a way that I am always on the hunt for the best ones around and burn through them at an alarming rate. Rather embarrassingly, I have been known to get through more than more than five candles in one month. As a result, you’d be hard-pressed to find a candle I haven’t tried. You Deserve to ...
French Girls Swear By These 10 Brands for Amazing Skin
There’s an undeniable allure about the beauty and style choices of French women, from their chic trademark fringes to their classic wardrobe basics. For me, though, there’s one specific area that I feel they’ve consistently excelled in more than most: skincare. Yes, French girls have seriously amazing skin, and it’s down to the array of hard-working skincare brands that they have access to. Over the years, I’ve lost count of the number of industry-approved makeup removers and celebrity-beloved face oils that have been exported from France. Trust me—if it’s cult skincare products that you’re looking for, then French pharmacy brands are the best place to start. Luckily, many of these historic bra...
I’m a Vintage Fanatic—Here Are My Top 9 Finds
It’s no secret that I’m a self-confessed vintage-fashion fiend. Give me a sunny Saturday afternoon, a takeaway coffee and a high street dotted with charity shops, and I’ll happily wile away the hours rummaging through densely packed rails. It’s all about the thrill of the chase and the unique buzz that comes from spotting something special that has its own unique history. If I’m honest, when I first started out second-hand hunting as a teenager, my main motivations were budget, and it’s only been in the last decade that I’ve also come to appreciate the creative and environmental benefits. From dusty charity shops in remote Welsh villages and city-centre kilo stores to online treasure troves, I’ve been everywhere in search of my next second-ha...

I Went Street Style–Spotting in London and Loved These 13 Autumn Outfits
In the UK, there is no shortage of cooler weather. Believe me—I’ve definitely come to understand that since moving from Australia a few years ago. From late October onwards, it officially becomes coat season, and that cycle of outerwear as a necessity rather than an option doesn’t end until at least March. Though, what I love about the UK is that in this country, cold weather does not equate to boring outfits, and this month’s street style proved just that. Over the course of an afternoon, photographer Michaela Efford, video content creator Remi Afolabi and I set out to document the most inspiring autumn outfits we could find along East London’s fashionable hot spot Broadway Market. From patterned tights to check jackets, designer accessories and standout sha...
