Kendall Jenner Wore Spring’s Prettiest It Bag
Early last year, Kendall Jenner did her part to make the Staud Tommy Bag an It bag, when she carried the zebra version on repeat occasions. A year later, she’s proving that the bag has staying power, as she just wore a newer colorful iteration of the bag out and about in New York. The Tommy Bag is a ’90s-style baguette shoulder bag covered in beads. This season, the offerings include animal prints, pastel gingham styles, geometrics patterns, and in Jenner’s case, a colourful psychedelic print called Millefiore. No matter which you choose, each one of the bags is beautiful in person, and the style is roomy enough to hold all of your essentials and more. It’s also a great piece to add some excitement to your ward...
Ted Baker Becomes First British Brand to Launch a Fashion Club on the Clubhouse App
Are you on Clubhouse? The invitation-only audio drop-in app that launched in April 2020 is quickly growing in popularity within the fashion and beauty industry — and Ted Baker just became the first British fashion brand to be granted club status on the platform. Ted Baker is hosting a series of six, hour-long discussions titled “Conversations in Culture” that explores the influence of British culture on fashion at large. The branded-content series will be lead by one of Clubhouse’s early adopters and most notable British content creators Abraxas Higgins. Ted Baker has already hosted a debut episode that featured Higgins in conversation with two of the brand’s spring campaign ambassadors, artists Kojey Radical and Greta Bellamacina. “We see Clubhouse as an oppo...
All the Coolest Interiors Have These 4 Trends in Common
The term rustic has always seemed like a bit of a backward compliment. It’s the sort of word you’d use to describe the birdhouse in your friend’s garden which has been lovingly, but haphazardly, cobbled together by their 3-year-old. But over the last year, a new wave of interior design trends have washed in and, in turn, well and truly reclaimed the stylistic potential of rustic—a rustic redux, if you will. This new look centres on a handful of materials that offer a certain earthy softness to any interior: bamboo, rattan, linen and jute, specifically. These four trends happily fall under the nu-rustic banner, and design-savvy individuals have embraced them in all number of iterations this year. W...
This Trend Is “Ugly,” and I’m Into It
The patchwork trend started bubbling up last year but now in 2021, I’m convinced it has completely exploded. Amid a sea of Bottega Veneta and The Row‘s clean ’90s silhouettes, patchwork is here to remind us that “ugly” trends still have their place and make an outfit feel fresh and exciting for 2021. From Stella McCartney’s patchwork denim jacket to Sea’s beautiful pastel coloured jacket as well as Prada’s mutli-print dress, there seem to be endless brands getting in on the patchwork trend this season.

These Are the Best Nike Air Max Trainers That You Can Buy Right Now
Once again, Nike Air Max Day (aka 26 March) is almost upon us and frankly, there’s only one way to celebrate it in style. Buying a new pair of Air Max is an annual tradition at this point, so why should 2021 be any different? It shouldn’t, and we’re here to help. For those who don’t know, the Nike Air Max was designed by the American designer Tinker Hatfield in 1987, after he embarked on a trip to Paris and visited the Centre Pompidou for the first time. As explained by Sneaker Freaker, “Hatfield, who was trained as an architect, was taken by the building’s inside-out approach — with its structure wrapped around the building’s exterior. From this, came the idea to expose the inner workings of the shoe, and the visible Air window was born.” In...
I Just Tried Everything From Alicia Keys’s New Beauty Brand—Here’s My Review
Ever wondered whether a new beauty launch or trending product is truly worth the hype? If so, you’re in the right place. I Just Tried… is our beauty column where we test out everything from new formulations to cult classics to find out whether they’re really worth your money. Oh, and we’ll answer the most-searched-for questions so you don’t have even have to ask. It might seem like an unusual move for a woman who previously renounced makeup to launch her own beauty line, but Alicia Keys’s new brand is unlike any other. Lauded as an emo-beauty brand—that’s emotional beauty rather than a brand created for My Chemical Romance fans—Keys Soulcare bridges the gap between well-being and traditional beauty with a collection of skincare,&...
Trust Me—This Is the One Product I Always Recommend for Textured Hair
Since I started styling my textured hair more frequently and straightening it less often last year, there was something that I noticed about the curly advice out there: Curl gels kind of get a bad rap. Whenever I’d reach out to people for styling advice, they would recommend a curl cream to coax definition into my hair rather than a gel. Yes, using curl gels in the wrong way can lead to crispy, crunchy or stringy curls, but—trust me—adding a curl gel has been the best thing for my styling routine. For me, I like to use gels when I’m doing my braid- and twist-outs for any hope of getting definition into my thick, coily hair. And if you like to wash and go, then you can actually apply most curl gels to wet hair and work them throug...
7 It Buys Fashion Girls Keep Buying From This Buzzy French Brand
With its pared-back nonchalance and minimalist silhouettes, The Frankie Shop isn’t one of those brands that fights for attention on the feeds of Instagram’s best-dressed. In typical French fashion, it’s a brand that somehow managed to garner a cult-like status without having to really try that hard, which is no mean feat in a digitalised fashion landscape that fights tooth and nail for those much-coveted clicks. Yet, once you’ve clocked the brand, you start to see it everywhere you go: An oversized blazer thrown over a pair of straight-leg jeans, a colour-pop tracksuit paired with velcro sandals or a clever cutout knit rubbing shoulders with a chunky chain necklace. Its success lies in its subtlety, but these pieces...

I’m Picky, But These High-Street Jeans Have Seriously Impressed Me
As I wait for my own pair of Favourite jeans to arrive, I have a few initial observations to talk you through. This goes out to all mainstream brands: I’d love to see more size options when it comes to denim (and everything else, of course). Jeans from & Other Stories start at 24 and end at 32. Per the size guide, the 32 should fit someone between a UK 16 or 18. However, in my experience, owing to my curvy frame, I almost always have to size up. And I know many women are the same. As for the aesthetic of & Other Stories’ jeans, honestly, I think they’re currently unrivalled. They look the authentic-vintage part, which is very difficult to achieve, and I know the cuts won’t date in a hurry (unlike those heavily frayed hems we all invested in in 2016). I...
