Not All Shoes and Skirts Work Together, But These 4 Combinations Are Perfect
It’s entirely appropriate to wear heels with short hemlines; I just personally feel it’s much cooler during the daytime to stick to flats or low heels. Whether ballet pumps (yes, they’re back) or simple flat sandals, you’ll always feel a bit more laid-back. Other Options: Loafers, slippers, brogues, trainers, ankle boots, ballet pumps, low-heel courts, party heels You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

This Might Just Be the Chicest Thing to Wear This Summer
“Linen might look nice,” she says, “but it’s more hassle than it’s worth.” Again, she’s not entirely wrong. Linen does have something of a bad rep; there’s a lot of ironing involved and, if it isn’t washed with care, it can lose some of its colour. But I think these inconveniences are a small price to pay as, ultimately, I believe linen can look so incredibly chic. Right now, linen seems to be the industry’s favourite fabric. Most commonly found in shirt form, linen is also dominating the dress, top, short, and trouser categories of our favourite fashion websites this season. And there’s one way those in the know prefer to wear their linen: by way of a skirt. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for...
6 Summer Dress Trends I’m Beyond Excited to Wear This Year
If there’s one thing we Who What Wear editors know about, it’s where to find good dresses. It’s not your typical mastermind subject, but nevertheless, it is something that we seem to be asked about endlessly, and our readers are always requesting more and more stories about dresses. In the summer, a dress is arguably the easiest thing to wear, as it can be light and comfortable yet requires little thought when it comes to styling. This means that there are certain dress trends that peak in popularity every single summer, such as white linen or beach-style dresses and black midis. This year, there are six dress trends, in particular, that are proving popular, and with question marks around international travel, we have stuck to styles that don’t require a far-fl...
I’ve Assembled 4 Perfect Summer Outfits—All From & Other Stories
Well, it’s official: Summer has finally arrived, and it’s about time. After what felt like the longest winter on record, there’s nothing better than the feeling of the sun on your face, an iced coffee in hand and relishing the balmy bliss of a floaty summer dress—especially after a year of tracksuits and slippers. The rise in mercury also means we can finally wheel out all the warm-weather outfits we’ve been mentally concocting over the last few months, whether it’s a printed midi, a throw-on shorts set or a retro swimsuit. If you’re in need of a little more summer inspo, let us point you in the direction of & Other Stories, which we can confirm is full of sun-ready staples. You Deserve to Make Money Even When...
All My Friends Keep Asking My Advice for Summer Wedding Guest Dresses
As an editor at Who What Wear, I spend a considerable amount of my week looking for new dresses, so this time of year, I also have an accidental side hustle as a “dress hunter” for my friends. My WhatsApp conversations have been dominated by talk of wedding-guest dresses. The most common question I receive is “What do I wear when the ceremony is going to be at a hot destination?” In this case, I’d recommend you avoid polyester and anything that will exacerbate the stickiness. In fact, I’ve been asked this question five times this month already. As I said, the first thing I’d look out for is the material. Avoid anything too synthetic; instead, opt for cotton, linens and silks. It can be tempting to think you have to wear as little fabric as possible...
These Cheap Serums Are Just as Good as Their Expensive Counterparts
Working out what your skin really needs to look and feel its best can be tricky, but there are a few steps that skin experts unanimously agree should be part of a good skincare routine. First, a good cleanser; think of this step as the foundation on which the rest of your routine is built. Second, an SPF; wearing sun protection is the one piece of skincare advice that I hear most from dermatologists for preventing everything from signs of ageing to pigmentation. Third, moisturiser is vital for every skin type, from oily to dry, for repairing the skin’s barrier and maintaining hydration levels. Finally, a serum, which is possibly one of my favourite steps in my skincare routine and one that Kate Moss’s facialist&nb...
The 5 Items Our Editors Have on Their Warm Weather Wish Lists
When you’re blessed with having a job that means you spend at least part of your time shopping for a living, you see a lot of stuff. However, our jobs as editors working for a fashion website mean that we often spend time working out what is and what isn’t worth your cash. Right now, that feels more important to get right, what with budgets being tighter and customers wanting pieces that work harder for them. It’s no wonder consumers want longer-lasting items that still nod to trends but aren’t defined by them. There’s no denying that it can be a tricky couple of criteria to fill. But as I already mentioned, as fashion insiders this is what we do. For this month, I asked several of our editors what’s on their shopping lists for summer. As...
11 Nail Trends That’ll Be Everywhere This Summer
In terms of beauty, nothing has the power to transition your look through different seasons quite like a manicure or nail art.

You need only scroll on Instagram to see that colourful manicures are currently trending, as are fresh shades of white. And now that salons have reopened, nail art is once again proving seriously popular, with everything from daisies to summer’s new It check making an appearance on our feeds.

I’ve Been Fighting for Inclusivity in Fashion for Years—Here’s Who Supported Me
Chloé Pierre is the London-based entrepreneur, digital marketing expert, author and influencer who founded wellness platform Thy.self with the aim to diversify a space that hadn’t previously resonated with her. Pierre’s debut book, Take Care: The Black Women’s Guide to Wellness, is now available for preorder ahead of its launch next year, and she’s also well respected within the fashion and beauty industries for not only her spot-on looks and content but also her willingness to be outspoken on topics such as self-love and size inclusivity.

The Summer Sales Are Starting to Drop—Here’s What I’m Bookmarking
Unlike the January sales (which all start within a week of each other), the summer sales can be harder to keep track of. Their start dates will be staggered across the months, meaning you have to be more strategic. Well, we can officially report that some key brands are starting to release their discounts, most notably Matchesfashion.com. Prepare to get clicking. Of course, we’re heading toward those cult buys we’ve spotted all over our Insta feeds so far this year, but we’re also picking the pieces you’ll still want to for many years to come. We’re talking crossbody bags, versatile tailoring, throw-on dresses and everything in-between. To help you navigate the often-confusing summer sale season, we’re alerting you when the big events sta...
10 Bodysuits That’ll Make Your Summer Outfits 100% Cooler
As we begin to migrate into summer, it’s always worth doing a bit of a wardrobe rejig to refresh your outfit repertoire. All being well, we’ll don dresses sans the need for tights, and knitwear will take a backseat to thinner, more summery tops. And though it may well be a year-round staple, there’s one top trend we’re planning on carrying with us into the new season: bodysuits. Considered a must-have by fashion types, the bodysuit is, potentially, the most versatile item in your closet. With the ability to be worn just as seamlessly with slouchy jeans as it is paired with a leather pencil skirt, in the right hands, bodysuits are incredibly chic and will take you from morning right through to evening.

Trust Me, I’m An Editor—10 Summer Buys That I Really Love This Week
As several warehouses and stores shuttered over the past 12 months, the fashion industry faces huge challenges and strains that pose an inevitable threat to businesses. Many of us won’t be shopping in the same way right now, but even a like on Instagram or a message of support can provide a boost for these brands. I certainly don’t want anyone to feel like they have to buy more right now, but at the same time, after working in the fashion industry for nine years, I want to support the brands and pieces that I love and treasure. As an editor at Who What Wear, I typically spend a lot of time looking at new-in products and so every week, I update this story with the pieces that have caught my eye and that really stand out. I usually have quite a classic style and tend to lean towa...
