Dior’s Autumn 2021 Collection Is Inspired by Mermaids, Debutantes, and Harlequins
Dior‘s ready-to-wear collections by Maria Grazia Chiuri are among the highlights of Fashion Month. Every season, the designer is able to tap into the dreams and desires of young women, and translate that into a decadent presentation of fashion and design. For autumn/winter 2021, Dior put a dark and romantic twist on the fairy tales of mermaids, debutantes, and harlequins. For Chiuri, the act of dressing up means we can be anyone and anywhere — including mermaids in the deep blue sea, Bridgerton-inspired characters of a royal court, or Gossip Girl debutantes ready to take on the Upper East Side. Dior’s autumn/winter 2021 collection offers a sombre take on fairy tales with a palette that centres on black, dark blues, red, white, and grey. Key fashion trends include elevated leath...
Fancy Patchwork Jeans? We Found the Best Pieces to Shop Online
The classic blue jean got a handcrafted makeover for 2021. Patchwork jeans were a standout trend at London Fashion Week spring/summer 2021, seen at Victoria Beckham, Vivienne Westwood, and Bethany Williams — and now you can shop this ’70s-inspired style at your favourite online boutiques. If you fancy investing in designer pieces, then Net-a-Porter’s in-house sustainable brand Net Sustain has a great selection. But if you prefer saving some coins on your next denim purchase, then you’re best checking high-street brands that cater to an edgier customer. We’re loving Jaded London, Bershka, The Ragged Priest, and Urban Outfitters for finding a great pair of two-tone or patchwork jeans at an accessible price point. Although this denim trend is a bit on the rebellious si...
Daisy Edgar-Jones Proves Puff Sleeves Are Here to Stay in Plunging Red Dress at Critics’ Choice Awards
Normal People‘s Daisy Edgar-Jones was nominated for best actress in a movie/miniseries at the virtual streaming of the 26th Critics’ Choice Awards. Although Anya Taylor-Joy took home the accolade for The Queen’s Gambit, Daisy’s plunging red Oscar de la Renta minidress was a trophy all on its own. Daisy’s gorgeous look was courtesy of stylist Nicky Yates. The Normal People actor wore a scarlet red dress with a plunging square neckline and billowing elbow-length puff sleeves, and paired it with shoes by Jimmy Choo. For beauty, Daisy went for a low ponytail by Danna Rutherford and simple black eyeliner applied in a thick line on her top eyelid by Gina Kane along with an otherwise neutral Chanel makeup look. “Thank you @criticschoice for this nomination!!! T...

Sorry White T-Shirts, This is the Only Top I’m Wearing This Summer
For 2021 my aim is to be as self-disciplined as possible when it comes to trends. While I think designers should keep pushing towards a more timeless approach to design that prioritises longevity, it can be too easy to demonise the concept of trends as a whole. Ultimately, re-invention is what makes fashion so exciting, the key is to just focus on styles that remain true your personal style and that don’t run the risk of being worn once then discarded. With this lens in place, I’ve been passing my eye over the trends that are coming up for spring/summer 2021 and making a shortlist of styles that I feel will slip into my pre-existing wardrobe with ease. My first point of call? The waistcoat. You Deserve to Make Money Ev...
I Love Expensive Candles, But These Under-£20 Ones Are Just As Good
I blame my job for my addiction to expensive candles. Before I worked in the beauty industry, candles were something that I was bought as a gift for birthdays or Christmas, not something that I’d purchase for myself. However, one of the perks of my job is that I’m sent luxury products to try that I would never usually dream of buying—and candles are one such product. Over the last few years I’ve had the chance to try the fanciest candles from brands like Cire Trudon, Bella Freud and Tom Dixon and I now have a taste (or should that be nose) for the good stuff. However, I am more than aware that dropping £80 on one candle is, quite frankly, ludicrous. My dad would tell me that it’s literally like burning money away and, to be totally honest, heR...
39 Celebs and Fashion Girls Who Are Making Me Want to Chop Off All My Hair
When it comes to my hair, I tend to fluctuate between two lengths: just above my shoulder or just above my boobs (both technical terms). Yet there always comes a time with both lengths when I start to feel like I want to either chop it all off and start again or indulge my inner Rapunzel and grow it out super long. Right about now, I’m at the “chopping it all off” stage, mainly down to the fact that I’m seeing cool, short hairstyles pretty much everywhere I look, and the fact that I can’t get a haircut right now. Yes, short hair is definitely trending, and I want in. However, ahead of booking in when salons reopen, I think it’s best I start to garner some expert advice on potential styles. “Short hairstyles are on-trend at the moment...
It’s 2021, and These 10 Female-Founded Beauty Brands Are Thriving
One of the best parts of my job (aside from testing out curly-hair products or getting makeup artists to share their secrets) is the opportunity to discover new beauty brands and the founders behind them. There’s something magical about unearthing what seems like a hidden gem or spotlighting a new business, and in 2021, it’s clear that championing female-founded businesses is more important than ever. COVID-19 has disproportionately impacted women, with estimates that 47 million women will be pushed into extreme poverty, causing the wage gap to increase. Basically, our strides toward gender equality within the workspace are slipping (a recent study from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce showed female-owned businesses struggling more than t...
Remember Skirts? These 6 Styles Are Going to Rule Spring
As someone who, prior to lockdown, only owned a couple of pairs of jeans and gym leggings, it’s hard to believe that the aforementioned items, along with the joggers I purchased last April, have become the most-worn items in my wardrobe. I used to live in dresses and skirts, and without meaning to sound overdramatic, I feel like I’ve lost a bit of my identity having not worn them for so long. Now, however, with temperatures slowly starting to climb and the days becoming brighter and longer with each passing week, I’m seeing this as my opportunity to break myself out of my style rut and slip into something fresh. So why not make for a spring/summer 2021 hero skirt? Frocks might have reigned supreme in recent years, but it seems as if skirts are g...
This Is My Third Mother’s Day—These Are the 32 Presents I’d Actually Like
I’ll admit that previously I’ve been a little puritanical about the kind of Mother’s Day gifts I’m open to receiving. “They must be practical!” I’d tell my husband, as if by the very fact that I’ve birthed a human, I no longer deserved “fun” or “silly” items that had no sensible purpose. In a turn that will surprise absolutely no one who has lived through the past year (so, quite literally, the whole world), I’m craving frivolousness.
