The Boot Trends That Are Going to Be Big in 2021 According to Zara
From royals to celebrities, influencers to editors, you’d be hard-pressed to find someone (fashion-fanatic or otherwise) who doesn’t have an item of clothing from Zara in their wardrobe. The Spanish retailer has developed a reputation for itself over the years for creating affordable trend-led pieces, as well as contemporary basics which can act as the cornerstone of any closet. Though, Zara’s mass-market appeal doesn’t just end at clothing. No, the brand’s footwear is equally as coveted and this winter, in particular, we’ve spotted quite a number of expensive-looking boots among their collection. (Many of which we predict will sell out in no time. Sadly, these styles don’t often hang around for long.) You Deserve to Mak...
I’ll Be Kicking Off 2021 With These 5 Anti-Trends
You can take your built-in G-strings (yes, that’s an unfortunate thing happening out in fashionland), glitzy Crocs and arm warmers—I’m just not interested. When it comes to trends, I love hunting them down, I love reporting on them and I love seeing them out in the wild, but introducing them to my own wardrobe? I’ve got a metaphorical Phil and Grant Mitchell standing on the door blocking everyone and everything. If your name’s not down, love, you’re not comin’ in. I’m not dead inside: Some new looks and key piece do get a chance. Right now, for example, I feel quite partial to a pair of feather-trimmed pajamas for all the parties we’re not allowed to go to… However, in general, I’ve come to learn over ...
First Drive: 2021 Land Rover Defender 90
See the Full Model Overview Less is more. Well, maybe. In the case of the 2021 Land Rover Defender 90, less is most definitely less—17.1 inches less, to be precise. Make no mistake, the short-wheelbase version of our 2021 SUV of the Year winner is still a good thing, offering, like its longer sibling, a truly unique combination of luxurious refinement on-road and Jeep-like capability off-road. But whether less of a good thing is actually … a good thing … depends on what you’re going to do with it. The Land Rover Defender 90 is built on the same high-strength, heavy-duty D7x aluminum architecture as the Defender 110. It shares the same powertrains, transmission, suspension, brakes, wheel and tire combinations, many trim items, and a number of body panels with the 110. The family resem...
Get Ready For the All-New Top Gear America!
When two of the most influential brands in automotive history—MotorTrend and Top Gear—join forces on a car show, what could go wrong? Who Is Crazy Enough to take on Top Gear America? See all 9 photos We couldn’t ask just anyone to take up the American mantle of the most iconic car show in history. There have been many copycats and tributes over the years, but they all pale in comparison to that most venerable of trios: Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond. But this ain’t that! Sure, we’re calling it Top Gear America, and it’s a trio of hosts, and it’s about cars. But what made the original show great wasn’t the formula, it was the rapport and comradery of the hosts. The three lucky enthusiasts we’ve chosen have all of that in s...
Hairstylists Predicted These Would Be the 10 Biggest Hair Trends of 2020
Last year’s top trending hairstyles were as functional as they were chic. From low ponytails to centre partings and Carrie Bradshaw hair, last year was all about understated styles with an emphasis on natural texture and hair health (which we love). As for hair colour, we saw a juxtaposition of warm and cool-toned shades. Golden honey shades were trending, as were icy platinum variations. Fiery red was seen alongside cool ash blonde. It was a year of hair colour contradiction. So, when 2020 rolled around, we couldn’t help but ask where that left us for the rest of the year? We decided to go right to the source to find out, asking top celebrity hairstylists, and we must say, we were surprised by their answers. We’re guessing you will be, too. ...

4 Classic Winter Trends French Women Are Wearing Right Now
There are few cities in the world that are as renowned for their fashionable inhabitants quite like Paris. The French capital is viewed as a place where trends emerge and are then emulated the world over thanks to stylish residents with a penchant for effortless ensembles. Here at Who What Wear UK, we often look to our neighbours over the Channel in order to see what is resonating with the fashion-conscious women in France, and this winter, our process is no different. In years passed, a weekend trip to Paris to tourist around, trend spot, and indulge in far too many croissants may have been on this agenda, but this year, however, I’m relying on Instagram for my supply of French fashion. Thanks to an abundance of incredibly cool influencers, it’s easy...
These Top-and-Jeans Outfits Are the Lazy Way To Do Party Dressing This Christmas
Ah, jeans and a nice top. Where would we be without this classic fashion combination? Usually our go-to for festive drinks and easy ‘out-out’ ensembles, it’s certainly served us well over the years, but this year it has taken on an even greater significance as we find ourselves on the lookout for low-effort, sofa-appropriate (and dare I say Zoom-ready) party looks. When heels and form-fitting frocks are the last thing we want to be wearing after months of comfy loungewear, a nice-top-and-jeans is the perfect way to dress up with minimal effort and maximum impact. Luckily, our favourite influencers have provided us with more than enough inspiration in this department, with a plethora of top options—from sequins to sheer organza—crop...
2021 Kia Sorento First Drive: Why This Is No Mini-Telluride
Kia Sorento Full Overview Don’t expect the new 2021 Kia Sorento to feel like a miniature version of its star sibling, the Telluride. Once you get to know the Sorento, you’ll understand. The three-row Sorento bursts out of the Telluride’s shadow with a more chiseled look than before, a surprising driving experience, and the ability to compete across three segments. Yes, three. Really. Segment-straddling versatility isn’t new territory for the Sorento; the 2021 model simply presents a more effective case for itself. That’s because there’s more of almost everything (except length). Kia stuffs the slightly wider Sorento with more standard safety tech, more power from the base engine, more efficiency in every configuration, more engine options, more interior ...
2021 Nissan Kicks First Look: Pumped Up Kicks
Despite occupying the bottom spot in Nissan‘s SUV hierarchy, the 2021 Kicks looks to shed its entry-level aesthetic. Going a long way in that effort is the freshly updated subcompact SUV‘s new front end, which features a larger grille, a more expressive lower fascia, and a thinner headlamp design. At the rear, the 2021 Kicks adopts a new rear bumper and a snazzier set of rear taillights with an LED light bar that spans the width of the vehicle. 2021 Nissan Kicks: A Kick to the Cabin But as transformative as the exterior changes of the 2021 Kicks are, the largest changes appear inside the cabin. Specifically, those of the higher-end SV and SR trims, both of which feature a new 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a redesigned center console with an integrated armres...
15 Lesser-Known Princess Diana Outfits I Never Cared About Till Now
Some people are absolutely obsessed with the royals, including everything they wear, where they are going, who they are dating, and so on and so forth. I, on the other hand, am not. I mean I get it, trust me. The fact that anyone who is a royal is essentially untouchable stirs up weird feelings of obsession and wonderment as we all desperately try to get an inside look at the lives of the princesses, queens, duchesses, and more. I will admit that a lot of royals do dress well, especially Princess Diana. While that certainly is not news, after searching through archive images of the People’s Princess, I found 15 outfits I personally had never seen before that really struck a chord. The looks you’re about to see here are each the perfect combination of classic and trendy. Each an...
