No One Will Guess These Summer Dresses Cost Less Than £100
From polka dots and smocks to back-baring midis and pops of print, the results of 2021’s affordable dress deep dive are in, and I can confirm that we’re in for a stellar year. While spring might’ve only made a tentative debut so far this year, the odd 23° day last week has completely thrown us off course and has had us scrambling to dig out our summer dresses. Honestly, the British weather can be so hard to keep up with sometimes. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be.

I’ve Tried Basically Every MAC Product—Here’s What I’d Recommend
When it comes to beauty brands that hold a special place in my heart, few come close to rivalling MAC. And while, for many of us, the brand might hold nostalgic memories as the place that we bought our first fancy foundation or experimented with red lipstick MAC are undoubtedly a brand that has continued to move with the times—innovating new formulations, inclusive shade ranges and classic product pairings. At this point, I’d hazard a guess that I have around 15 years of MAC loyalty under my belt and during that time I think I’ve tried a decent amount of the brand’s beauty offering. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that I’ve pretty much tried every single product. But with such an array of products on offer—foundati...
Honestly, These 12 Affordable Handbag Brands Look Like Luxury
Be it Bottega Veneta, Chloé, Hermès, The Row or Chanel, we spend a good amount of our time swooning over designer handbags. While our arm-candy allowance isn’t quite what we’d like it to be, we never feel that we’re missing out, mainly because there are so many affordable handbag brands that are creating bags just as covetable as those with four-figure price tags. Still, the word “affordable” is hard to pinpoint. For one person, it might be £30 spent on the high-street. For another, it could be an excellent charity shop find that rings in at £5. And, for some, it could be something as high as £300. We think, however, for something such as a bag to be deemed affordable, it all comes down to how much you’ll actually use it. You Deserv...
I’m an Editor, and This Is Where I Secretly Shop Online
Put your hands up if you love the thrill of finding something truly unique and special to wear. Me too. One of my all-time greatest fashion pleasures is to go thrifting and uncover a rare gem for a fraction of the price it should be. I miss my weekends spent on Cheshire Street in East London trying to hunt down a slinky vintage pussy-bow blouse, retro tailoring or gaudy ’80s earrings. Because of this desire for clothes and accessories that tell stories, I’m also very inclined to support up-and-coming talent, indie brands and smaller e-commerce platforms, who all offer pieces that aren’t run-of-the-mill. I’m still keen to learn about super-popular new-season items from designers, and I’m not immune to the charms of certain high-street b...
Trust Me—This Is the One Jacket Trend Worth Buying From Zara
Whoever has been doing the PR for the shacket recently really deserves a well-earned rest. This piece of outerwear truly came into its own over the past year, and it hasn’t waned in popularity whatsoever. Type “shacket” into Google Trends and you’ll see that it suddenly started to gain traction in August last year. The amalgamation of “shirt” and “jacket,” it has been a great option for working from home and then nipping out to the shops. It’s an in-between item that is great for layering and also just as good when you wear it on its own. It’s perfect with a pair of jeans or leather trousers but also works with dresses. Best of all, of course, is that it’s been made popular by the fashion crowd thanks to pretty muc...
Maya Jama Reveals the Cool Fashion Instagram Account That Is Inspiring Her 2021 Style
Image Source: Adidas There are two things you can always count on from Maya Jama: a great time and a banging outfit. In recent appearances, the Glow Up presenter has been spotted wearing some of the coolest British brands of the moment, like online store Auné, which is a favourite of Beyoncé. Maya has also been snapping very stylish Instagrams in outfits designed by Roberta Einer, Marques’Almeida, and popular London boutique House of Sunny. For her latest fashion venture, Maya teamed up with Adidas for its new Tennis Luxe collection and spoke to POPSUGAR about her favourite pieces, the fashion trends she’s adding to her 2021 wardrobe, and her love for Hailey Bieber’s stylist. “I’m not a regular tenniser, I’ll be honest, but I just love the outfits,”...
Kendall Jenner Just Wore the Coolest Olsen-Inspired Summer Outfit
Re-entry dressing can be difficult to get right after months of living in jogging bottoms and hoodies. You want to be a little more put-together and start having fun getting dressed properly again, however, with restrictions still in place, we also need our outfits to still be practical and comfortable. We’re not quite at the “roaring 20s head-to-toe sequins” stage just yet. Kendall Jenner has been out and about in New York over the past week and wore three outfits that ticked all of these boxes. Each time, she wore a pair of trousers and a T-shirt, but she styled them in slightly different, interesting ways. The standout outfit by far is her oversized white shirt paired with relaxed beige trousers cinched with a classic black leather belt. The reason why itR...

12 Items Monikh Will Always Have in Her Wardrobe
Monikh will likely need no introduction to loyal Who What Wear readers, as she has been a shopping columnist for us for several years and every month shares her must-have buys via her column, Trust Monikh. The London-based styling and shopping guru has impressive fashion knowledge, however, her philosophy (much like ours here at Who What Wear) is all about making smart investments that sit within your own personal style. She will reference trends, but never follows them, and instead is all about curating a wardrobe that will last beyond a season or two. When it comes to her own wardrobe, you only need a quick scroll of her Instagram feed to realise that she has nailed her capsule wardrobe and relies on a roster of hardworking staples. “Firstly figure out what your sty...
7 Bargain Brands That Are Just as Strong as Zara
“Mango used to be one of those stores I always looked at but never really bought anything from, but over the past year or so, that has completely changed.

These Products Are So Good They’ve Earned a Place In This Beauty Hall of Fame
There’s no denying that beauty is an incredible fast-moving industry and with a buzzy new launch or celebrity-approved product seemingly going viral every day even I struggle to keep up with what’s trending right now. However, I make sure to regularly test and trial the newest cult beauty products because I always want to know if they’re genuinely worth they hype. The result? I have an overflowing makeup bag and struggle to close the doors of my bathroom cupboard on a regular basis. Yes, at this point, I’d hazard a guess that I’ve tested hundreds of apparent cult beauty products with mixed results: some are total flops which make a quick exit from my beauty stash while others take up permanent residence in my regular rotation. However, when I’m shopping for cult beauty produ...
The 5 Items Our Editors Have on Their Summer 2021 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—essentially 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. While it’s still pretty brisk ...
