These 68 Spring Outfits Make for Easy Scrolling
For the last year, it’s safe to say my style has been built solely on comfort. Like so many, working from home meant I barely left the house, save from walking the dogs. Living in Scotland and being the sort of person who feels the chill in even the slightest of summer breezes, meant that, when I did so, I had to wrap up. Aside from the odd dress or skirt-and-jumper combination, I spent inordinate amounts of my time in joggers—and not fancy ones at that. Comfortable they may be, but wearing them day in and day out made me feel as if I’d lost my sense of style. While they’re still likely going to remain an integral part of my wardrobe this year, I’ve decided that I’ll also be experimental with my outfits. To equip me with...
Watch Performances by Alesso, R3HAB, and Lost Frequencies at PUBG Mobile Anniversary Stream
A few years ago, during the days of the battle royale wars, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) and Fortnite competed for the attention of gamers around the world. While the latter of the duo is more known for their dance music crossovers, on Sunday, developers of the mobile version of PUBG brought out a medley of EDM artists for their 3rd-anniversary livestream celebration. Joining professional gamers and streamers for the broadcast were Alesso, R3HAB, and Lost Frequencies. Each artist laid down a set and then competed with prominent figures in the game’s community. As a special treat to viewers, each artist also premiered a new song during their performance. While they didn’t perform at the event, K-pop fans were excited to see that BLACKPINK recorded a speci...
6 EDM Songs That Are Also Badass “Breaking Bad” Quotes
It’s been nearly eight years since the shocking end of Breaking Bad. The show gripped us for five heart-pounding seasons as we followed Walter White on his journey from timid high school chemistry teacher to globally feared crystal meth kingpin. Fans can attest that the amount of quotable moments from the legendary show is impossible to count. However, you’d be surprised to find that some of the most memorable lines from Breaking Bad just happen to be identical to some big-time electronic music songs. A Breaking Bad and EDM crossover probably wasn’t on your 2021 bingo card, but here goes. “Say My Name” – ODESZA feat. Zyra Who could forget when Walter White uttered this iconic quote and forced Declan to acknowledge him as Heisenberg? It was one ...
I Feel Like the Past Year Has Aged Me—These 3 Products Are Reversing It
Inspired by Kate’s in-clinic Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers, which are used to plump and lift skin, blur fine lines, and reduce the look of wrinkles, the KateCeuticals™ Firming Serum works to boost collagen production and oxygenate the skin for a smoother more luminous complexion. I’ve been busy testing out the KateCeuticals range, and I have to say that I’m incredibly impressed so far. First up, while appearances aren’t everything, this trio of products look so chic. The sleek grey packaging is a stylish addition to my bathroom, and the bottles and tub are just weighty enough to feel luxurious. As for the formulas themselves, the textures are beautiful—lightweight, non-greasy, and not at all cloying on the skin, like some anti-ageing products can be. I ...
I’m Nosy, so I Asked 4 Cool Scandis to Show Me Inside Their Homes
From fashion editors’ new-found obsession with checkerboard to the proliferation of pastels, Scandi girls sure know how to set a homeware trend. While the traditional conception of Scandinavian design centres around simplicity, white-washed walls and plenty of natural wood tones, a new guard of design-savvy fashion lovers are championing a new—but no less chic—Scandi aesthetic that is taking social media by storm. This fresh approach certainly doesn’t shy away from colour, but it still retains a certain cool elegance that has historically defined Scandi style. After moving house late last year, I threw myself into the world of interiors, and it was the Trine Kjærs and Nnenna Echems of the world who instantly drew ...
Kaskade is Getting His Own Fortnite “Party Royale” Concert
Even before concerts were forced online due to the ongoing pandemic, Epic Games‘ flagship title, Fortnite, was hosting full-scale events. After a groundbreaking performance from Marshmello in 2019, they would go on to invite Travis Scott, J Balvin, BTS, deadmau5, and more to the virtual stage. Now, celebrating his recent crossover with Epic Games’ recently-acquired title, Rocket League, Kaskade is primed for an in-game performance. Seemingly due to the nature of the games themselves, the event will not actually take place in the Rocket League application, but rather in the world of Fortnite and the Houseparty app. However, this does not mean there won’t be tons of rocket-powered car soccer elements included. Organizers promise a show that wil...
9 Springtime Style Basics No Woman Should Be Without
Spring is all about new beginnings. Flowers start to flourish, lambs are born, and the latest fashion collections are debuted. Speaking of the latter, if you’ve already consulted our bumper spring/summer 2021 trend report, then you’ll know that looks such as bubblegum pink, ’90s-style separates, second-skin tops, and beautiful dresses were all prevalent on the runways, making for one of the most sartorially exciting seasons we’ve had in a long while. And after the year we’ve had, boy do we need it. Now, don’t get us wrong—we live for unearthing new trends, but we’re of the opinion that your wardrobe also has to have the right balance of basics to counteract them. Which is why we’ve decided to strip things back and talk about t...
TV Shows Set the Fashion Trends These Days—Here’s All the Proof
To say that TV shows have dominated our pandemic lives would be an understatement. Each show, when you really think about it, has pinpointed a particular time in the past year. First came Tiger King right at the beginning of lockdown during the end of March 2020, and along with it an ignited interest in animal prints and Carol Baskin costumes prepped for Halloween. There was Normal People, I May Destroy You, Selling Sunset, Unorthodox, The Queen’s Gambit, and new seasons of The Crown and Schitt’s Creek. And that was just 2020. This year already has seen the popularity of the BBC’s The Serpent and Channel 4’s It’s a Sin. And the TV hits will keep on coming, no doubt. What I’m saying is that with nowhere to go and with a need for escapism, the lu...
Kendall Jenner Is Making Us Want This £30 Mango Vest
It’s not often that you see a Kardashian-Jenner wearing high street, but this weekend Kendall was photographed in New York wearing a £30 top from Mango. Her outfit was a departure from her usual styling, as she opted for a 70s ‘grandad’ look wearing loafers with ribbed socks, green khaki trousers and a vest top layered over a white Oxford shirt. Her knitted vest has 70s earthy tones with a horizonatal stripe using terrocota, lime and dark grey colours, and is surprisingly still available in all sizes. We love how she layered it over a smart white shirt, which was left untucked and visible underneath the vest for a more relaxed feel. This vest also comes with matching knitted shorts, for those who are looking for summer loungewear options. As for the rest of the look...
This French Brand Creates the Most Beautiful Knitwear
Often slightly oversized and always made from the highest-quality fabrics, Sézane’s knitwear is a beautiful sight to behold. A rainbow of powdery, expensive-looking hues decorates jumpers and cardigans alike, while pretty details such as pearl buttons and aged-brass hardware ensure the pieces look considerably more polished than their price-tags suggest. They might be slightly more expensive than your typical high-street offering but, with never-date silhouettes that you’ll love and wear for seasons to come, we can confirm they’re worth spending a little extra on. Clearly we’re not the only ones who think so, as countless influencers have recently been sporting Sézane knitwear. Scroll below to see the specific pieces that have caught their eye, shopping our edit of the best Sézan...
London’s Coolest Dress Collector On the 5 Beautiful Styles She’ll Always Cherish
Having delved into some of the UK’s most impressive closets thanks to our Best Wardrobes in Britain franchise, I think I can confidently say that Pippa Vosper has one of the best dress collections in the country. I haven’t had the pleasure of exploring her wardrobe (yet!) but it’s plain to see from her Instagram feed: 75.4k followers (of which I am one) are treated to whimsical, dreamy, dress-centric imagery on a very regular basis, and we can’t get enough of it. So alluring are her choices—white scalloped clouds of Cecilie Bahnsen, swathes of vintage cerise silk-satin—that I’m certain she could make the most hardened tracksuit wearer feel like slipping into something fancy for a low-key coffee run. “I can fee...
Seoul Community Radio Debuts Online Game “onit.life” in Support of City’s Nightlife
Seoul Community Radio has just released a new online game in support of their city’s nightlife. Titled onit.life, they’ve delivered on their plans to “fuse electronic music culture with the limitlessness of online gaming” with the new experience. The platform will be used to host curated in-game events, the first of which has been dubbed “A Decade of Seoul Parties 2010-2020” and explores the nightlife from the last decade in the capital city. On the game’s YouTube channel, they shared a very short look at the online experience. In the video, you can see the player move through an indoor exhibit featuring artwork and videos from past shows. It then concludes with the player stepping outside into a psychedelic, otherworldly realm with giant...
