Designer Phoebe English and Personal Stylists at Stitch Fix Predict the Future of Workwear
British designer Phoebe English and personal styling service Stitch Fix are collaborating on a capsule collection that visualises what we will be wearing to work after the pandemic. Taking cues from a more flexible WFH lifestyle, the future of workwear will prioritise comfort above all else, and our “new normal” wardrobes will include loungewear staples with a smart, office-appropriate redesign. “There has been much conversation about a longing for occasions to dress up and enjoy fashion again,” Phoebe English told POPSUGAR. “But, when it comes to workwear, I knew that the shift to working from home would mean comfort would remain a priority even when we return to some level of normality, and that our designs would ultimately need to reflect this.” ̶...
5 Summer-Ready Outfits That I Would Love to Wear Starting April 12
PSA: I’ve just spent the last hour scrolling my way through NET-A-PORTER’s new S/S 21 shop (which is, fittingly, named Ready-to-Wear), and I have to say, if you’re having a dull week, this might just perk you up. Filled with so many fantasy summer buys, this new-in treasure trove is sure to set any fashion lover’s heart racing, and I speak from experience. The colours! The dramatic silhouettes! The versatile accessories! As someone who can’t wait to get back into the swing of dressing for more than just my sofa, this edit has seriously sparked joy. Yep, we are 100% invested in endorphin dressing this summer because, honestly, we all deserve it after the year we’ve had. After my cheeky browsing session, I decided to put together five dream outfits that pe...
PSA: There’s a New Cult Bag Brand You Need to Know About
As the bags touched down on Net-a-Porter last week, senior market editor Libby Page has this to say about the shopping behemoth’s latest recruit: “New York brand Savette debuted their luxury handbag collection this season, and we envisage they will be a highlight for us this spring. All Savette pieces are produced in Italy, bringing together the traditional artisanal leathercraft and modernist sculptural forms. A year in the making, the first collection has an overall refined aesthetic. Our favourite is the multifunctional box bag in tan—she has modernised this classic handbag shape and made it suitable for any occasion.” Page’s last words (“for any occasion”) resonate with us. If the last year has taught us anything, it’s to not save our...
This Is the One Pair of Jeans French Women Always Wear
What is it about French women and jeans? They always get it right. I have my own theory about why they manage to nail it constantly when it comes to denim: They don’t invest in fads or passing trends and only pick the styles that will have longevity in their wardrobes. And if it ticks a current trend off too? C’est fantastique. While I’ve lived in the country, I, sadly, don’t possess the style know-how of the French woman. To understand just how they get it right when choosing jeans, I turned to Morgane Sézalory, founder of label Sézane, on which style Parisians are after right now.

These Classic French Shoes Are Back in Fashion, and I’m Thrilled
I have this recurring dream where I’m twirling around the streets of Paris at twilight, wearing a tulle Dior dress and sporting a beret in the deepest shade of noir, all the while carrying a baguette in the crook of my arm. Of course, you can’t twirl effectively in spindly stilettos, so my footwear of choice is another French-girl staple: ballet flats. Naturally, I wake to discover I’m not in Paris, that the Dior dress was merely on subconscious loan and, to my dismay, there’s not a baguette ready to be devoured. However, much like Cinderella, I do have a pair of ballet flats that help me live out my Parisian fantasy in real life. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Celebs Are Suddenly Backing These Controversial Jeans Trends
Life is boring and tedious if we know what’s coming around the corner. It’s good to be surprised once in a while. (For the record, I would not like to be surprised by any future pandemics.) Ultimately, not having the answers to everything keeps stuff interesting. That’s especially true of the fashion world. Last month, we published our denim report, telling you about the biggest trends, what the cult brands are and how denim is the trend of 2021. While our denim insiders told us that barrel legs and patchwork are arguably two of the bigger trends to watch out for, there are a few other surprising ones we’ve recently discovered. First, there are the tied-ankle jeans which we’ve spotted on Rochelle Humes. Then, slightly scarier are...
I Think These 3 Gucci Bags Will Always Be the Height of Chic
It bags may come and go, but when buying a designer handbag and parting with such a significant amount of money, you want to be certain that it’s something that is truly deserving of the title of “investment piece.” This is an item that you want to have by your side for years, if not decades. Yes, love is a big part of it, but this is also a purchase that requires a certain amount of research and consideration. There are certain heritage houses that are known to hold their value but that also create timeless, beautiful designs that ensure their key styles are continued for decades. Gucci is one of these very labels. Looking through a Gucci collection is like diving into an eclectic dressing-up box—you’re met with more crystals, bold colours...
Experts Agree—These 3 Nail Colours Will Be Everywhere This Spring
When it comes to decorating the nails of the stars, Mazz Hanna knows her way around a famous finger, having polished the talons of Julia Roberts, Emma Roberts, and Nicole Richie. Which nail colour does she think will be a hit this year? “It’s been a while since mint has been on-trend for nails, but prepare to see it everywhere in 2021,” she says. “It’s timeless, seasonless, and looks great on every skin tone. I also think the bare-nail trend will continue into next year, so I wouldn’t be surprised if we continue to see more natural buff and shine and sheer nudes.” Follow Mazz Hanna at @callmemazz.

This Is the One Dress Brand Every Editor Wants to Own
Every now and then, a brand comes along and captures the hearts of the global fashion set. It’s not always in the flashy, “must buy every piece and wear it immediately” sense when the hype around a new creative director at a big fashion house reaches its zenith. Sometimes, it happens with a softly-softly approach, where an unyielding urge to just own something—anything—grows over time. Stylists, editors and influencers have plenty of beautiful clothes to enjoy, but there’s always room for a new, special addition, and one such example in recent times is most definitely Aje, specifically Aje’s dresses. Almost everyone on our team agrees that to lay claim to an Aje midi would be a truly wonderful thing. It’s an invest...
