5 Expensive-Looking Colours That’ll Make Your Home Look Designer-Curated
Choosing which colours to decorate your home with is probably the most important decision you’ll make with regards to your interiors. Like fashion, homeware aesthetics fade in and out of popularity, but, as far as colour trends go, it pays to go with your gut and invest in the hues that make you happy and feel at ease in your space. This, however, doesn’t mean you have to opt for a wholly neutral palette. Bright colours might be what makes you tick, and that’s okay, especially at the moment, when many bright hues have made an impressive and stylish comeback on the interiors scene, providing us with a much-needed refresh from the cold, grey shades that dominated for the longest time. So, if you’re looking to switch up your home with a new shade, or, if you’...
Vibrant Printed Jeans Are the Autumn Fashion Trend You’re About to See Everywhere
Patchwork, hand-painted, and printed jeans are one of the most exciting 2021 fashion trends. This fresh take on classic denim is inspired by a broader post-lockdown aesthetic of joyful outfits, and handmade or DIY-inspired clothing. While we’re still keen on traditional animal prints, polka dots, and stripes, the best printed denim of 2021 is covered in surprisingly psychedelic and futuristic prints — like marbled patterns, wavy prints, ’70s florals, and warped cyber dots inspired by Jean Paul Gautier and Marine Serre. We must admit, Dua Lipa is our muse for taking a chance with printed trousers. The Future Nostalgia singer debuted a gorgeous pair of hand-painted jeans in spring 2021 that was created by British independent designer Kat Rose. As soon as we saw Lipa’s vibra...
I Was Dubious About Natural Skincare, But These 16 Products Actually Work
However, there is a hitch. Considering how many amazing nontoxic brands each store has, sifting through all the beautifully packaged and enticing options can feel a bit overwhelming.

Since we’re all about spreading the love, we sifted through both Credo and The Detox Market to find the best-selling, highest-rated skincare picks in all our favorite categories. (Many of which we’ve tried, tested, and fallen in love with ourselves.)

I Asked 3 Hairstylists Which Cuts Make the Most of Thin Hair
Long, full hair may be the standard (thanks, old-school shampoo commercials!), but in reality, it’s far from the norm. There are a lot of reasons someone might have thinner hair, from genetics to postpartum hair loss. And while hair thinning is more common as we get older, anyone of any age can have thin hair, or fine hair (aka hair that’s physically smaller in diameter than its fuller counterparts). That’s why, as always, the right haircut can be a total game-changer. No matter your hair length or texture, your next cut is just a scroll away. We caught up with three ultra-talented hairstylists—Sanda Petrut of Maxine Salon in Chicago, celebrity stylist Joseph Maine, and Ryan Trygstad of Mark Ryan Salon in New York City—to find out their tips for cutting and sty...
Hands Down, These Are the Coolest 8 Plus-Size Swimsuit Brands
There’s a frustration here in the UK that there aren’t enough plus-size brands available, especially when it comes to more specialised categories like swimwear. Compared with the U.S. it seems that us Brits haven’t always had as good a range available but things are beginning to change, not least because you can get plus-size brands shipped over from the States but there are (finally) more cool brands available in the UK. ASOS Curve has led the charge for some time now and their bikinis and one-pieces are genuinely great. But thanks to the online retailer stocking plenty of other plus-size brands, there’s are even more options for you to consider. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating sho...
The 6 Trends That Londoners Will Be Wearing This Autumn
As banal as it sounds, people watching is one of those small things that I really missed last year. Perhaps it’s a pastime that particularly lends itself to city living, but all I know is that there is such joy to be found in walking down the street or sitting on the tube and taking-in the personalities and outfits that pass me by. Of course, in a city like London I am spoilt for choice when it comes to street style and, as bountiful Instagram can be for outfit inspiration, you really can’t beat the immediate appeal of IRL style. Autumn fashion is one thing that, I believe, Londoners do particularly well—the warm weather dressing award will always be handed to a country with balmier climes—and so, as we look ahead to the coming seas...
I’ve Assembled 5 Expensive-Looking Outfits Entirely From H&M
As a fashion editor, I always get questions about the secret to a well-assembled wardrobe, to which I have the same answer: versatility. Ideally, your wardrobe should include some premium pieces mixed among more affordable items, with a dose of vintage and second-hand for good sartorial measure. It’s this eclectic mix of brands and price points that will ensure your clothing reflects your personality. As the saying goes, variety is the spice of life—and, naturally, you want your outfits to be spicy, too. That said, I understand the appeal of snapping up an entirely new outfit from just one store. First, it’s an effective use of your time, as it doesn’t involve having to traipse around every shop or browse every new-in section. Chances are it’ll a...
Kendall Jenner Just Wore the Boot Trend That’s Going to Lead Autumn
There are some shoe trends that become very popular, peak, then go away for a decade or more. Others only fade away for a few seasons before making a comeback as big as before—if not even bigger. We’e been predicting that a cowboy boot craze was coming since the start of the year, and it could well become popular enough to eclipse its most recent popular moment, way back in 2018. For starters, the A/W 21 runways of heavy hitters like Isabel Marant were covered with them, retailers’ new arrivals include tons of them at a variety of price points, and very influential celebs like Kendall Jenner are already wearing them even though we’re amidst the dog days of summer. Jenner was recently photographed out in Malibu wearing loose cream-colored jea...
Big Is Back on the Set of SATC’s Reboot—Here’s What Carrie Wore for the Occasion
I don’t know about you, but I spent last night watching the first episode of the new Gossip Girl reboot. Now, we have yet another revival to look forward to because the new Sex and the City show officially began filming in New York City. That’s right: Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte are back in action and wearing some very on-brand outfits for each of their characters. (Sadly, Samantha will not be part of the new spin-off, and her sassy ensembles and witty one-liners will be sorely missed.) Big has just made his first appearance, and it’s intriguing to see what Carrie wears alongside him: a feathered headpiece reminiscent of her wedding day? Hmm. Thanks to paparazzi images, we have the very first look at what the ladies are wearing in the show, which will be calle...
29 ASOS Dresses That You’ll Love and Wear Year-Round
ASOS does a lot of things well—its shoes consistently surprise us with their premium designs but affordable price tags, and its coat selection is one of the strongest on the online shopping scene. However, it is perhaps most loved for its dress department, which is sure to satisfy every dress need you’ll ever have. Be it a summer smock or knitted winter number. And this season, as we look towards tend of the summer and to the transition into autumn, the brand seems to have pulled out all the frock stops. Upon browsing its new-in section this week, we couldn’t help but notice that ASOS is serving up a host of beautiful dresses—some of which are promptly selling out. With the broadest edit out there, with everything from statement checks to versatile mono...
Stylish Raincoats Exist—I Just Found 16 of Them
For some people the idea of a ‘stylish raincoat’ will sound like an oxymoron. After all, it’s an item of clothing that has been created to fulfil a functional, rather than fashionable, purpose. Yet, as I am faced with the prospect of a week’s glamping in summer 2021’s torrential downpours, I can’t help but cast my eye around for something a little more chic.

Celebrity Bikinis All Have This One Thing In Common In 2021
While a holiday for many of us still looks like a few days in Norfolk or Cornwall, several celebrities are starting to return to their yachts, heading to the likes of the Amalfi Coast and St Tropez. Envy inducing holiday pictures are back on our Instagram feeds in a big way. The locations may vary, but there is one thing these pictures all seem to have in common— loud, look-at-me bikinis. The general swimwear trend seems to be the bolder the better for 2021, with jazzy prints and vibrant colours. It’s a punchy palette you can’t help but smile at, with lime greens, oranges and bright pinks. People are certainly making up for lost time when it comes to their holiday wardrobes, and having as much fun as possible. Keep scrolling to see the bikinis Emily Ratajkowski, Cara ...
