Study: EDM is the Most Popular Genre to Listen to Before Bed—But Also the Worst
A new study has found that if you go to bed with music playing, you get a sound sleep. Despite that awful pun, the study offers some eye-opening data on music-related dreams. The Sleep Judge surveyed 1,063 people about their experiences with music-related dreams. 55% of respondents were men and 45% were women, and they ranged in age from 22 to 61 with an average of 36. The analysis found that EDM is the most popular genre of music to listen to late at night before bed among 14% of people. However, it was also delineated as the worst genre to listen to in bed, with 54% of people unable to sleep well and 57% dissatisfied with their sleep. Let’s chalk it up to it being the catchiest and most likely to get stuck in your head. Pop music was the most popular genre for the st...

24 Products That Actually Make Your Hair Thicker
Generally speaking, when it comes to hair there seems to be one main thing that people want from their strands: thickness. In fact, when friends and family reach out to me with hair-related queries it’s most frequently to ask what the best products for thin hair are. I’ll be honest though, although I adore a good volumising product, hair thickness has never really concerned me. While my individual strands are quite fine, they’re coarse in texture and there’s a lot of them: I’m more likely to be testing products that promise hair hydration or strand-sleeking results than anything that makes hair look thicker. Until last year, that is. After having my first child I experienced the much-talked about postpartum hair los...
2022 Toyota GR 86 First Look: New Name, Same Sports Car Formula
New name aside, the GR 86 copies the recipe for Toyota’s former 86, a rear-wheel-drive 2+2 coupe—meaning it is once again mechanically identical to the Subaru BRZ. That both affordable sports cars lived to see a second-generation and keep doing battle with the likes of Mazda’s MX-5 Miata and, somewhat tangentially, the soon-to-be-replaced Nissan 370Z marks a pleasant surprise. It shows the value in two automakers (in this case, Toyota and Subaru) collaborating on low-volume but incredibly fun cars, sharing the development costs and making the project pencil financially. It’s the reason the GR Supra exists, having been co-developed with BMW (the project also birthed the latest Z4 roadster). See all 14 photos Enough Collaborator Talk—Will the GR 86 Be More Powerful?

If You’ve Missed Proper Trousers, These 9 Trends Are for You
Numerous designers have played with this trouser shape. However, that isn’t the only alternative to jogging bottoms, jeans and leggings being presented to us for spring and summer. We also love the elevated knitted trousers (preferably in cream or lighter hues), the return of khaki trousers (very Rachel Green) and the black trousers that are dominating new-in sections right now. We are all about having the classic building blocks in your wardrobe here at Who What Wear, such as a great pair of black trousers or suit bottoms, so it’s worth paying attention to the gaps in your wardrobe when it comes to staple pieces. This spring, brands are also offering a more joyful approach to getting dressed, playing with bright colours and joyful prints, which is not only reflected...
This High-Street Brand Has Created the Perfect Pair of Straight-Leg Jeans
No, finding the perfect pair of straight-leg jeans is not exactly breaking news, but the fact that I have discovered that & Other Stories‘ Keeper Jeans tick all my boxes feels like a small win, and honestly, I’ll take all the wins I can get right now. As I have discovered, purchasing straight-leg denim seems to be that little bit harder than shopping for, say, skinny jeans or “mom” jeans. Why? Well, the definition of “straight” seems to be loosely interpreted across the market, with some inching towards a wide leg and others being more akin to a slim fit. Maybe it’s just my fanaticism when it comes to fashion, but there really is a fine balance to be found when it comes to de...
And Just Like That, These 6 Pretty Nail Colours Are Suddenly Trending
Along with gingham checks and basket bags, pastel nails are synonymous with springtime style. And now that we’ve turned a corner and officially entered the season, we’re keen to embrace the pretty manicure once more. Although pastels sound saccharine (we can almost taste the sugared almonds), that needn’t be the case. Of course, there are the petal-inspired shades of rose and lilac, but then there are the slightly punchier tones of mint and peach, which are arguably more in keeping with pared-back aesthetics. You might not think it, but pastel nail colours are also quite versatile. Although colourful, their powdery undertones loan themselves well to a multitude of other hues, meaning they’re less likely to clash with whatever you’re wearing than, say...
Celebrities Did Not Come to Play With These SAG Awards Looks
If you thought the Grammys red carpet was something worth buzzing about, get ready because I have a feeling our favorite celebrities are about to outdo themselves yet again for tonight’s Screen Actor’s Guild Awards (AKA the SAGs). Much like the rest of this award season, the SAGs were delayed but the show must (literally) go on, so this year will feature a pre-taped special. If you’re anything like us, your first thought it how this will affect the celebrity looks. While there won’t be a traditional red carpet before tonight’s show, expect the leading (and supporting) stars of this year’s binge-worthy series and critically acclaimed movies to turn up virtually and bring their A-game à la the Golden Globes and Critics’ Choice...
The 5 Colour Trends Everyone Will Wear This Summer
Have you forgotten how to get dressed? I don’t mean chucking on the same knit and trackies you’ve been wearing for the past year. I mean like actually get dressed with purpose and consideration—a frock for drinks with mates at the pub, a cool pair of tailored trousers for a picnic in the park, a blazer for doing some Saturday shopping… There’s no doubt that while our love for fashion hasn’t waned, it’s been very centered on what we do inside our houses, so that means there’s been more of a focus on loose, comfortable and functional items. It’s not really been about getting dressed. Well, with spring coinciding with the easing of lockdown restrictions, it’s time to inject some fun into our outfits. Thankfully, there are plenty of joyful ...
Steve Aoki Releases Second Naruto Merch Collaboration
Back in September 2020, Steve Aoki combined his love for the Naruto franchise with his flagship record label Dim Mak for a collaborative merch drop. Unsurprisingly, the gear was a hit with both fans of his work and the anime and manga series. Aoki has now revealed that additional items have been created for a second capsule of the collection. On Twitter, he shared images of the 24 pieces of clothing fans can take home. As you can see in the embedded tweet, the collection features a number of t-shirts, hoodies, and long-sleeve shirts with both his label’s branding and images from the legendary Japanese series. Most of the items are a solid color, but for those looking for something a bit more flashy, several tie-dye threads are included in the collection. Aoki’s second Dim ...
I Re-Created 5 Photogenic Outfit Trends I Keep Seeing on Instagram
The other day I told my husband that I might’ve forgotten how to put outfits together, which I probably shouldn’t admit, given my profession. While it’s an overstatement, the truth is that I probably am a little rusty after a year spent in sweats and slippers, but things are starting to look up for 2021, and I’m starting to think about what I’m going to wear now that the weather is getting nicer. Instagram is pretty much my #1 source for outfit trend spotting, and so to get myself out of this year-of-lockdown style rut, I chose 5 looks that chic women recently posted to their feeds, and re-created them with pieces I already own. I can’t say that I looked quite as cool as they did, but some of the outfits got me out...
5 New Swimsuit Trends That Work For Every Body Type
If you love your shoulders/arms: If accentuating your arms and shoulders is your goal, opt for either strapless, off-the-shoulder, one-shoulder, or halter styles.
