Love Island 2021: 5 Clothing Brands the Bombshells Wear on Repeat
Fit boys, falling in love, and a gorgeous villa in Majorca — it’s not easy being a bombshell on Love Island 2021. And while we are on the edge of our seats to know who’s coupling up at the end of each episode, we’re equally curious about where all the gorgeous girls got their great summer outfits. You might be familiar with the ladies of Love Island wearing fashions from Pretty Little Thing and Oh Polly. But for the much-awaited seventh series, we were happily surprised with some new brands gracing the sizzling small screen. Zara is becoming a staple in the bombshell wardrobe with both Millie Court and Faye Winter wearing slinky slip dresses from the affordable high-street brand. We’re also keen about under-the-radar brand Farai London worn by Rachel Finni, which se...
These Are the Best Zara Pieces for Petite Girls
I sometimes feel like Zara was put on this earth to taunt me. I hop onto its site, confident as can be, certain that I’ll come away with a bounty. I leave either empty-handed or with a lone pair of shoes. Clearly, there are worse things in life (plus, you’ll find some spectacularly expensive-looking footwear options in-store right now), but I’m always a bit disappointed that those tailored flares are so long they’d lose their silhouette if I took them up or that the standout dress I’ve been ogling online would be perfect if only the waistline sat in line with my petite proportions. I have an hourglass figure, too, and Zara’s clothes appear to be far better suited to people who are tall, straight up and down and within a rather li...
I Found 30 “Where Did You Get That?” Buys From Monki, & Other Stories and Mango
There’s something uniquely satisfying about someone asking, “Where did you get that?” about an item of clothing that did not cost an arm and a leg. But finding those standout items for less, whether it’s via the high street, a small brand or second-hand, is a skill that takes time to refine, but once you’ve got the knack, it’s integral to making wise investments with your hard-earned cash.

5 Affordable Home Décor Trends That Make You Look Rich
When you’re admiring someone’s mirror selfie online, it’s a given that most eyes will be gorging on what’s happening in the background as well as the outfit in question, right? As someone who gorges a lot, I love this incidental aspect of Instagram—it satisfies my inherent nosiness and provides endless décor inspiration. After peeking at the furniture and accessory choices in the homes of some of the world’s most stylish women, I’ve come to note certain key themes that can really elevate a space. The good news is that you don’t need an endless renovation budget to tap into the luxurious look. With a few accessories that call on opulent textures and materials, you, too, can channel that sophisticated vibe in one easy (and affordable) move. You ...
I Bleached My Afro Hair, But These 6 Products Are Keeping It Healthy
I have spent a significant amount of time over the last few weeks writing about trending hair colours and the coolest summer hairstyles, so it’s no surprise that I’ve been incredibly tempted to switch up my own hair look. And this week, that’s exactly what I did—I took the plunge, headed into salon and dyed my Afro hair. Honestly, I’d been thinking about it for a while and obsessing over the warmer blonde-brunette balayage images that I’d been pinning, but I was finally ready to have the Hot Girl Summer hair of my dreams. However, like with any chemical hair service, I knew that there was a huge risk attached to colouring my hair. “Bleached hair is more porous, so it becomes more sensitive,” warns Zoë Irwin, a Wella Professionals ...
Trust Me—This Skirt Trend Will Always Be in Style
There are also brighter iterations of animal-print skirts to choose from. From Faithfull the Brand’s now-reduced wrap style with an orange base to Aligne’s cutesy sunshine-yellow ruffle mini, you needn’t stick to beiges and browns when it comes to selecting an animal-print skirt for you. For maximum outfit mileage, first, consider what it’ll work within your wardrobe, and if you can think up a handful of pieces you already own that you can wear it with, an animal-print skirt might be the missing piece from your warm-weather fashion line-up.

The SATC Reboot Is Officially Filming, and Carrie’s Trends Are Rolling In
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 today. 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.) Thanks to paparazzi images, we have the very first look at what the ladies are wearing in the show, which will be called And Just Like That… Naturally, shoe-obsessed Carrie is wearing some statement sky-high platform heels with her flouncy skirt and T-shirt. Mea...
These Date-Night Outfits Are Perfect for Summer
We’ve touched on this subject before, but dressing for a date is deceptively complicated. The pressure of wanting to really wow with your outfit, the often unknown factor of where you’re going or what you’ll be doing, and the sheer stress of simply going on a date could all cloud your overall ability to make decisions. Throw in the additional element of sticky summer heat and you’re really in for a problem. You know you’ve been there at least once or twice. Well, before you decide to cancel last-minute, we took one for the team and put together an array of dazzling outfits that beat the heat but are next-level stylish, too. That’s right—we’re crossing two headaches off your list when it comes to summer date-night outfits. W...
4 French Women Just Showed Me Their Dream Vintage Wish Lists
From Vestiaire Collective’s Parisian roots and Imparfaite Paris’s Gallic cool, it’s fair to say that the French know a thing or two about vintage fashion. As a dedicated second-hand shopper myself, I’ve also noticed that it’s the French who have long championed a more multifaceted approach to their wardrobes: pairing high-end designers and affordable high street with their one-of-a-kind vintage finds. From fashion influencers to website founders, these preloved hunters really speak my language—well, sartorially anyway. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

The Right Way to Clean Your Makeup Brushes, According to a Pro
If you’re wearing makeup on a regular basis, more likely than not, you’re probably using brushes with a bit of buildup on them. As a result, your brushes may not be able to give you the right amount coverage you’re looking for. In this case, knowing how to clean your makeup brushes properly will make all the difference. Not only will they feel as good as new, but you can also rest assured that by cleaning them regularly, they’ll last you for years. To make sure you’re cleaning your brushes as efficiently as possible, we tapped Robin Black, a celebrity makeup artist (and founder of Beauty is Boring), for her expertise. “For your personal makeup brushes, once every three to four uses is ideal,” she says on the subject of how often you should be cleaning your brushes. She also mentions that b...
5 Products We Should All Be Using for Healthy Hair This Summer
I’m sure we can all agree on the fact that summer is excellent. At least when it arrives in the UK, that is. But do you know what’s not excellent? The havoc that warm weather can play with your hair. No matter how healthy your hair might be beforehand, the sun, heat and more time spent outdoors can put even the strongest of hair at risk of dryness and breakage. And if you have any chemical treatments or colour on your hair, then you have to be even more diligent at protecting your strands during the hotter months. “Too much exposure to the sun can wreak havoc with hair texture and without protection can lead to it feeling dried out,” says celebrity hairdresser Lorraine Dublin. “If you have bleached your hair or if y...
17 Summer Outfits We Love for All Kinds of Weather
I don’t know about you, but all I can think about is summer. If you too are dreaming of afternoons in beer gardens and summer parties with friends, then you might already be searching for the perfect summer outfits for our return to socialising with fewer restrictions. I bought a pair of sandals and a summer cotton dress within hours of the proposal for a freer summer and have been looking for outfit ideas ever since. Sometimes, summer outfits need to be straightforward and simple to assemble, with just the flourish of a key accessory or subtle injection of a new styling move, and sometimes—because the UK’s climate is so unpredictable—the layering and construction will be more demanding. We’ve supplied the more advanced levels, of course. Remember if the sandals...
