This Jacket Isn’t ‘In’ Fashion, But I Think It’s a Total Classic
Have you ever flicked through a fashion magazine only to be informed that your most treasured item of clothing is now, in fact, ‘old news’? It’s as if the mere turning of time, and creation of new trends, results in the obsolescence of everything that has come before. Nope, it doesn’t make sense to me either. I believe it takes real confidence to wear what you want to wear, regardless of its relevance (or irrelevance) to the current fashion cycle, which is why I decided to write about my love of the humble biker jacket.

From Anna Wintour to Joan Smalls: The Best Street Style at Paris Fashion Week
As the great Joni Mitchell said “don’t it always seem to go, that you don’t know what you got ’til it’s gone”. I’m sure she wasn’t talking about fashion week street style but that’s exactly how I feel about it. For some time now, and I’m sure I’m not the only one, I had reached a sort of fatigue with the incessant peacocking. Season after season, there was an imbalance with what mattered—a focus on those outside the shows and what they were wearing rather than the collections on the runway. True, it all adds to greater fashion picture but there was so much street style that I wondered if we’d forgotten what we were really doing there. Then, the pandemic hit. Immediately, fashion weeks across the globe had to stop...
2021’s Coolest High-Street Sandals Are Finally Back in Stock
When we put together a story on an item that doesn’t come with an accompanying line-up of influencer images, you know it’s pretty hot-off-the-press stuff. Sometimes, we just get a hunch about something and predict sell-out success, so really, we don’t want you to miss out. This week, said hero item has manifested in the most beautiful pair of sandals we’ve seen on the high street this year, and they come courtesy of Arket. No surprises there. Coming in spring/summer 2021’s most popular shoe silhouette, the cage (or fisherman) sandal, the style features thick straps, a buckle fastening and a chunky sole. It is available in both black and white. The black version sold out within 24 hours of going online, but hav...
The 8 Most Flattering Nail Shapes for Every Length
It’s no secret that we’re nail fanatics here at Who What Wear HQ. We’re always investigating the trending polish colors, learning how to grow healthier nails, and even identifying the coolest nail art before it takes off. Not to mention our obsession with stalking the best celebrity manicurists online. One area that always trips us up a little bit, though, is nail shape. It doesn’t sound like a confusing topic, but when it comes to selecting the perfect shape to complement any length, there seem to be some questions. So we took to Instagram, the #nailfie mecca, to find out exactly which shapes look best on which lengths. It wasn’t easy, but someone had to do it. As usual, we volunteered as tribute. Here, we’ve outlined eight of the mo...
11 Reasons Victoria Beckham Looks So Amazing at 47
I’m lucky enough in my job to have access to celebrity facialists, top beauty brands and the best experts in the industry, but I’ve noticed more and more that it’s A-listers themselves who are becoming all the more influential when it comes to serving up legitimately good beauty advice. Of course, celebrities like Beyoncé and Jennifer Aniston are surrounded by the beauty industry’s cream of the crop on a daily basis—from makeup artists to hairstylists—so it’s really no surprise that they’ve picked up some expert beauty tips along the way. There’s one celebrity in particular, however, whose skincare knowledge I trust more than most: Victoria Beckham. With her very own beauty line under her belt and a dedicated ...

Everyone Always Asks Me About My Dresses—These Are the New Ones I Love
If there’s one thing I know, it’s dresses. My wardrobe is full of them, and I wear them 99.9% of the time. I’ve always struggled with casual (long-time Who What Wear readers will have repeatedly read about my ongoing struggle with denim—sorry to be a bore!), so easy, good-looking frocks are my most trusted fashion staple. I have affordable ones that I wear each and every week. I have special, more expensive ones that come out for important occasions or big meetings. I have those in-between, mid-priced options that bridge the gap between casual days and fancy ones. I own styles that are ultra-summery and best for heatwaves and holiday packing, but I’ve also got a fair number of clever, trans-seasonal styles that can work layered up and with ...
Senator Lawan: Senate to pass electoral act amendment bill in two weeks
President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, says the National Assembly is working towards passing the Electoral Act Amendment Bill in the next two weeks. Lawan said this at the inauguration of Mr Abimbola Yusuf, as Chief Commissioner of the Public Complaints Commission (PCC) and 37 other Commissioners from the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on Monday in Abuja. He has urged Nigerians who were not comfortable with certain clauses in the ongoing amendment, to take their complaints to their representatives, for consideration before the passage of bill. “The national assembly is embarking on the amendment of the Electoral Act probably by next week or within the next two weeks. “It is very important that those who feel very strongly about any amendment that they think should be effe...
Sienna Just Arrived at Wimbledon Wearing the Most Perfect Summer Outfit
Big celebrity events have been few and far between thanks to Covid. And I, for one, have missed the glamour. But thanks to Wimbledon we’ve had a few sightings that to placate those of us hungry for a some A-list action. First, we had Kate Middleton, and now we’ve had a flurry of looks from various celebs including Sienna Miller. The star turned up for Manic Monday, AKA the finals, wearing a head-to-toe striped look from Ralph Lauren. But she wasn’t the only one to put in an appearance. Poppy Delevingne, FKA Twigs, Maya Jama and Holly Willoughby all turned up today to watch the matches taking place. Last week, we also saw Bridgerton actresses Phoebe Dynevor and Nicola Coughlan attending. To see all the above looks, keep scrolling. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you ar...
I’m a Trainer Obsessive and These Are the 4 I Always Wear in Summer
Trainers are very much the kind of shoe you can wear all year round. But with a very rainy few months, plus the very long winter we had, I’ve not had much reason to put anything on my feet other than boots. When it comes to the summer, then, I’m pretty happy to delve into my wardrobe and reach for my beloved sneaker collection. True, plenty of us love to wear sandals non-stop when the very hot weather appears. But for those in between temperatures, trainers are perfect. The question is, however, which ones are best for wearing with your summer dresses, skirts, and jeans? As someone who owns lots of different styles of trainers, I have narrowed down my favourites for the summer months. You don’t need to own them all but if you’re after a decent pair of sneakers...
And Just Like That, Halters Became Summer’s #1 Microtrend
I know it seems like all we can talk about lately is the great Y2K fashion renaissance. Trust me—I was a tween in the era, so there’s definitely a lot of styling elements that I hoped I’d never see again, but this next trend I’m about to dive into is one that’s officially become too big to brush off. Ladies and gentlemen, we present the return of halter necklines. Seeing as the aesthetic of the early aughts is reaching a fever pitch, so too are the going-out looks, and among them, halter tops and dresses are suddenly everywhere I look. I first took note of the neckline when a handful of designers presented halters in their fall/winter 2020 collections and have even shared the celebrities who are getting on board ...
From Anna Wintour to Kendall Jenner: The Best Street Style at Paris Fashion Week
