32 Looks That Might Tempt You Into Having a Pixie Cut
If long hair has been your thing for as long as you can remember, this just might be the year you make a change. Take me, for example. I’ve had long hair my whole life (with the exception of one not-so-chic VB-inspired bob), but something about how wonderfully undone and effortlessly stylish short hair can be means the idea of chopping it all off is really starting to appeal to me. It might have something to do with the blunt bobs I’ve been seeing around, but I’ve never been more inspired to chop all of my hair off and go for a shorter style. And while a bob might seem like the obvious choice right now, going even shorter is equally as chic—and it seems I’m not alone in thinking so. Yes, that’s right. I’m talking short, shor...
6 Flat Shoes That Are Almost as Comfortable as Slippers
This year working at home, I have been alternating between two pairs of shoes: my sparkly Ugg slippers and my Marks and Spencer ballet pumps that I’d argue are just as comfortable as the former. I’ve found myself wearing my ballet flats in working hours in an effort to “still get dressed” in the mornings without compromising on comfort. When it comes to flats, there are certain styles that are comfortable but still have the same chuck-on appeal of an old pair of slippers. Admittedly, several of the pairs on this list will require a period for breaking in, but once you have softened the leather on your loafers and your feet have adjusted, they’ll be shoes you can walk 10,000 steps in—or from your desk to the kettle and back. On th...
This Pyjama Trend Will Make You Feel Like a Rich Girl
Of course, silk pyjamas look fancy, but they come with a whole host of benefits, too. They’re great for your skin, as the fabric is less prone to friction; also, the fabric’s blend creates a breathable yet insulating barrier between yourself and the surrounding temperature, meaning it’ll help keep you cool in the summer and warm in the winter. And while they’re more expensive than cotton PJs, silk pyjamas are one of the most special things you can invest in, and it really pays to buy the real deal. Keep scrolling to see the best silk pyjamas, and soon you’ll wonder how you ever coped without them. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Every Editor in My Team Is Wearing These Spring Accessories Already
Our editorial team is fast-forwarding to spring already—we are completely and utterly done with puffer coats and chunky boots for now, thank you very much. So, it is rather fortuitous and wonderful timing that the latest Who What Wear Collection of bags and shoes has arrived at Zalando (and soon to Kurt Geiger) to help us skip straight into the new season. While we may not be able to legitimately frolic around in a floaty dress or consider wearing minis quite yet, it is possible to switch-up accessories in order to feel like our outfits have been suitably revamped with spring in mind. You may or may not know, but these drops are based on editor-driven trend picks and rather than providing every single shoe or bag style known on earth, it’s about a concise curation: You̵...
25 Celebs Who Prove This Low-Maintenance Hairstyle Suits Everyone
Finding a hairstyle that is universally flattering can be tricky. Sure, there are certain hairstyles that people always come back to. For instance, us Brits are going to be totally obsessed with shag hairstyles for spring summer 2021, but depending on your hair type and texture it’s often necessary to make adjustments so that certain trending hairstyles will work for you IRL. However, turns out there is one hairstyle that really does suit everyone, and without wanting to get too Goldilocks about it, it’s due to that winning combination of being not too long and not too short. Yes, a classic shoulder-length hairstyle works for every hair type—from tightly curled to poker straight and super-thick to very fine strands. Why? Well, there are n...
These 2021 Grammys Red Carpet Looks Are Music to My Ears

Pantone’s Post-Lockdown Colour Predictions Say It Loud and Clear: We All Need a Holiday
If there’s one thing we need in our post-lockdown wardrobes, it’s colour. After a year of swapping grey pyjamas for black ones, it’s almost time to step out and be seen by the world. The best way to do this? In a showstopping palette. If you don’t know where to start, Pantone is here to guide the way. Following Fashion Month, Pantone shares their Fashion Colour Trend Report — their expert forecast on the hottest hues to look out for. Among their top 10 picks for New York Fashion Week and London Fashion Week, three of them perfectly reflect our collective moods after our shared lockdown experience.

19 Smart But Comfy Trousers That Are Perfect for Spring and Beyond
After months of slouching, the novelty of wearing jogging bottoms has well and truly worn off. I want to feel comfortable, for sure, but now I miss feeling put-together and am slowly revisiting the smarter items in my wardrobe. Last summer, we wrote about a pair of linen jogging bottoms from H&M on Who What Wear, and it’s clear from the number of clicks it generated that I’m not the only one wanting to swap my slobbing-around clothes for something a little more polished. I’m normally a dress person in spring and summer, however, I am finding myself drawn towards relaxed trousers in either lightweight linens or with uplifting summer shades. I’ve found lots of tempting pairs from brands including Arket, COS and Faithfull the Brand. The one thing all of these ...
The Holy-Grail Product My 73-Year-Old Mum Uses to Make Her Look 20 Years Younger
I’m pretty lucky. Not only do I have a job where I get to experience, write, and learn about the newest and most exciting products, treatments, and trends hitting the beauty industry, but I also get to interview and get to know the artists and experts who execute and create them. That said, I also feel lucky to have a beauty-loving, 73-year-old makeup artist mom who I can consult about anything and everything. (My poor father never gets a word in when we have a family catch-up call. Sorry, Dad!) Being a 73-year-old product junkie and also a Tucson-based makeup expert who specialises in educating older women about makeup and skincare, my beautiful mum knows a thing or two when it comes to choosing the best products for mature skin. Oftentimes (but not always), when I t...
I Lived in Paris for 3 Months and Learned How to Dress Like the French
Right after university, I found an apartment in the Marais and spent a summer living in the city. During those three months, I really just soaked in everything about Paris and its people—and it had a huge impact on me. One of the biggest ways was the fashion. It was in Paris that I decided I was going to pursue a career in fashion. After seeing the editors and models buzzing around fashion week, I knew I wanted to be a part of it all. But beyond that, it was French street style and the fashion lessons I learned from real Parisian women that made a huge impression on me. Many of these takeaways—like buying less and smarter—are things I’ve put into practice for years since my time living there and always make me feel more stylish. Ahead, I’m breaking down how I learned to dress lik...
