I’ve Assembled the Perfect French Capsule Wardrobe in Just 9 Pieces
I’ve spent much of my career trying to pinpoint what makes French style so alluring and covetable. Of course, a lot of what we consider to be French fashion is generalised. Basket bags (not unlike Tamara’s above), Breton-stripe tops and berets are all instantly associated with that Gallic-girl charm. But I’ve come to find that the clothes and accessories many French women gravitate towards are more subtle in their connotations. While it can’t be said of all French dressers, there are many who subscribe to a classic aesthetic, wearing never-date items on rotation. I’ve been analysing these wares for some time and can now confidently proclaim that, to assemble your own stylish French capsule wardrobe, you’ll only need nine pieces. As I said, these pie...

Fashion month continues to truck on, and we’re still reveling in all the glorious newness.

All of your favourite Italian heavyweight brands truly outdid themselves this season and left us with some excellent styling ideas and cult buys to look forward to. As we sorted through all the stunning shows that took place in Milan, there was a lot to digest, but we were able to narrow down the newness to five key trends. Featuring the miniskirt you’re bound to see everywhere this spring thanks to Prada and what we’re deeming one of two new naked trends to look forward to in 2022, this list will give you the d...
From Jo Malone to Liberty, These Are the 30 Best Beauty Advent Calendars
Most beauty advent calendars tend to sell out within hours of their release, so it makes sense that brands are now providing us with information on the covetable beauty buy well in advance of the on-sale date; and that’s precisely what happened this week when our inboxes started to fill with imagery and press releases from some of our favourite brands, each pertaining to their beauty advent calendar offering. With so many to choose from, we decided to make it easier for you to find the perfect beauty advent calendar to treat yourself to by listing them all in one place.

The Top That Cool Fashion Types Always Wear With Their Jeans
There are only a handful of items that you can genuinely wear at any time of the year. Jeans are one of them, save perhaps on the few days when temperatures are at their highest (and you know how few of those there are). The other is bodysuits. Although it’s considered a summertime staple, we find the bodysuit loans itself well to the cooler months, too, when you could use a little more insulation than usual. So we thought we’d put these two pieces together to come up with a selection of bodysuit-and-jeans outfits that can take you through the morning, noon and night. The style set has already zeroed in on this formidable pairing and has been wearing their bodysuit-and-jeans outfits with zeal over the last few months. From ensembles that work for, well, work to c...
34 Paris Street Style Looks I Just Can’t Get Out of My Head
Je suis obsessed! I was originally going to create this gallery as a rundown of all of the big Paris Fashion Week street style trends, but then, there were just too many pictures and too many different outfit ideas for me to narrow down and categorise in such a specific way. I wouldn’t want to be accused of withholding such important information ahead of you jumping into your autumn wardrobe, so it’s essential that you see a wide selection of incredible IRL looks to bookmark for current and future reference. Editors would certainly argue that Paris brings out the very best street style looks. After three weeks of practice in New York, London and Milan, it really feels likes showtime in the City of Light. Some of the biggest runway shows are on the schedule—Dior! Chanel! Mi...
From J.Lo to Victoria Beckham, These Are the Best Ponytails to Copy Right Now
While I delight in taking my time with a good skincare routine at the end of a long day, I’ve made no secret of the fact that I consider dealing with my hair an altogether more boring chore. From washing it to styling it, I’ll do everything in my power to reduce the amount of time that I spend on my strands each day to the bare minimum. (Hence my intense love of dry shampoo for extending the number of days I can go between washes.) Similarly, whether it’s getting ready for work or meeting friends at the weekend, I’m only interested in the quickest and easiest hairstyles for my hair. Sure, fancy up-dos might look cool, but I just don’t have have the patience for an updo that requires a YouTube tutorial and another pair of hands to re-create it at home. Luc...
Oh, Wow—H&M’s Autumn Boots Are Looking So Good This Year
Is it just me or has H&M seriously upped its fashion game over the last year? The brand seems to have refined the art of creating a solid wardrobe staple and has also started offering pieces with a slightly elevated price point, which results in higher quality—and higher quality means greater longevity.

These 21 Jumpers Will Make You Excited for Autumn
If you’re someone who is allergic to colour, then you should look away now, because this season’s jumper trend is a no-holds-barred rainbow extravaganza. While beige has become a byword for luxury in recent years, the A/W 21 runways were awash with saturated hues, from Bottega’s Kermit green to Prada’s deep cobalt blue. Who knew paintbox brights could look so chic? Not me. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be.

Best Wardrobes in Britain: Eshita Kabra-Davies of By Rotation
What have you been investing in or buying more of personally? I have always loved Jacquemus before I founded the app—I wore it to my civil ceremony. He had such a moment after his Provence show, and I really like the designs, and they do really well on the app, so it makes me feel less guilty when buying a dress. I am now more confident buying designer investment pieces, so I bought two Jacquemus dresses recently. Are you noticing more people are starting to rent? It has been intense and insane, and we have been doing rentals three times the volumes we projected. Ever since the beginning of April and restaurants opening, people started making a lot of bookings, and women were saying, “This app has changed the way I buy things.” I am definitely encouraging people to really dress up aga...

The 13 Foundations Celebrity Makeup Artists Always Use on Women Over 40
Every makeup artist we spoke to explained that without a well-prepped base (i.e. hydrated and healthy skin) any foundation application will flounder. Prepping the skin with the right products and ample moisture is crucial for a seamless, long-lasting finish. “I am really, really big on prep—prep is EVERYTHING,” exclaims celebrity makeup artist Tamah Krinsky, whose clients include Julianna Margulies, Mary Steenburgen, Judy Greer, Idina Menzel, and Christy Turlington. “Regardless of age, how you prep your skin determines how your foundation will sit on your skin, and the more hydrated and healthy your skin is to start, the better your foundation will look. My clients would tell you skin prep is the longest part of their time in the makeup chair with me!” Kr...
