Bentley’s New Styling Specification Is Made for Fans of Carbon Fiber

As we’ve noted in previous reviews, the Flying Spur is the best Bentley sedan of the modern era thanks to its sumptuous interior and effortless acceleration. Now, a carbon fiber package promises to give the sedan even more road presence. The updates are subtle, but likely won’t go unnoticed by discerning Bentley customers. The Styling Specification adds carbon fiber accents to the Flying Spur’s front splitter, side sills, rear diffuser, and rear spoiler. Bentley has performed a battery of tests to make sure the carbon fiber bits don’t disturb the sedan’s performance. The parts were also tested for durability to withstand curb strikes, wading, and poor roads. Bentley even paid close attention to the badging, giving the side sills a special three-dimensional ele...

Still Haven’t Found Your Go-To Moisturiser? Try Out These Super Affordable Ones

We’ve all had those moments when we’ve bought a new dress and unceremoniously ignored all of the other dresses in our wardrobe, upon its arrival. Well, it seems that a lot of us have been doing the same with skincare.  There’s so many juicy, exciting and hardworking products out there. From applying droppers of active packed serums to at-home peels, the options are endless. So, the moisturiser has kind of been pushed to the back of the bathroom cabinet.  With so many affordable skincare brands on the scene who’ve chucked out all of the filler and noise and focus on the ingredients that work–spending tons on a moisturiser isn’t the norm anymore.  Plus, our skin changes quite often and there’s nothing quite like the disappointment of buying ...

This Trend Is Set To Make Your Eyebrow Troubles A Thing Of The Past

Honestly, I’m over eyebrows. I’m skilled at many beauty things, but eyebrows aren’t one of them. I can’t master the perfect symmetry, I have zero energy to rectify mistakes and the products just don’t excite me.  That was until I kept stumbling on eyebrow pens that mimic the results of microblading or brow lamination treatments. I usually wear a few products, but mainly Benefit Precisely, My Brow (£21), so when they recently launched their Brow Microfilling Pen, I had to give it a go and see if it was a worthy upgrade. Seeing as they’re such a go-to brand for all things brows. Whenever I see the word pen next to eyebrows, I have awful flashbacks of when my teen self used a black liquid liner in lieu of eyebrow pencil. Luckil...

2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV—Electric SUV—Coming Soon, Gets Super Cruise

Looks like the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV, the SUV version of the bow-tie’s small electric car, is still on track for sale next summer. The EUV is the second vehicle in the Bolt electric car family. It is slightly larger, hardier, and designed to look a little more like an SUV than a car and offer more interior room to play with. Importantly, the Bolt EUV will be the first vehicle outside the Cadillac brand to offer Super Cruise, the driver-assistance technology that allows for hands-free highway driving on mapped roads. Sleeker Profile Sets Bolt EUV Apart As you can see from the teaser released by General Motors, the EUV has a much sleeker silhouette than the frumpy Bolt hatchback, with a roofline that ends in a rear spoiler. The beltline angles up gently as it proceeds from the A-pill...

If You Hate Fluoro, You’ll Love These Minimalist Sports Brands

I’m a strong believer in finding workout gear you genuinely love and feel good in. Otherwise, how are you going to get the motivation to do the exercise? It’s a rule I stick to. Now, over the past few years, there’s been a real influx of bold, brightly coloured workout gear, and you know what? Not everyone’s on board. If you’re all about the pared-back, minimalist aesthetic out of the gym, you’re probably all about that vibe when you’re on the treadmill too. So if you’re not a fan of fluoro and leopard print, which brands can you turn to for a simple workout look?  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

My Saved Tab on Instagram Is Full of Perfect September Outfits

I’ll be the first to admit that I spend a lot of time on Instagram, especially during the pandemic. While I might have lost the plot to films and TV shows I’m “watching” thanks to endless scrolling, I have something to show for it: great outfit ideas. And in my line of work, that matters. As you might imagine, I see an endless array of outfit combinations, and while there are plenty that aren’t quite right, there are many that stop me in my tracks. Case in point: I’ve followed Amy Julliette Lefévre (who goes by the IG handle @lefevrediary) for a while, and a few weeks ago, I came across the perfect outfit—an oversize blazer, a white T-shirt, jeans and slouchy socks with classic white trainers. The look was pure 2020: modern but ...

2021 Mazda CX-5 Given Huge New Screen, Only Costs a Tiny Bit More

The 2021 Mazda CX-5 is the same nimble, fun-to-drive crossover SUV as before, but now, Mazda is sweetening the pot with a few additional features, which won’t cost you much extra. Arriving in dealerships this September, the 2021 CX-5 starts at $26,370—a modest $80 increase from last year. The CX-5 is still priced competitively with key rivals like the 2020 Honda CR-V ($26,270) and 2020 Toyota RAV4 ($27,125). That $80 difference nets customers a newly standard 10.3-inch infotainment screen, which replaces the previously standard 7.0-inch unit, as well as the optional 8.0-inch display, of 2020 models. See all 25 photos The next step up from the base Sport model is the Touring, which brings along heated front seats, leatherette upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control, and two US...

2008 Dodge Dakota Crew Cab TRX4 Retro Review: The OG TRX

What: Dodge’s midsize pickup with all the off-road bells and whistles How Much: Base price, $29,745; As tested, $34,350 What’s Hot: Cool 4×4 options, 302-horse V-8 (only V-8 in class), best-in-class towing What’s Not: Over-creased exterior, rough ride, pricey On the Road:The Dodge Dakota didn’t qualify for the 2008 Truck of the Year event (its engine, styling, and suspension tweaks were too minor), so we opted to try the midsize model at the office. Even a quick glance reveals changes to the pickup. The front end now resembles that of the Nitro, and new, angular creases dominate the fender flares and tailgate. People notice the Detonator Yellow 4×4 on the road and, it turns out, so do bugs. This truck’s bright paintwork attracted dozens of gnats each...

These Autumn Knits Are So Good That I Want to Start Wearing Them Now

As we’re spending more time indoors and at home this year, many of us are prioritising comfort and ease when getting dressed, and this will have a significant impact on the trends for autumn and winter 2020. Loungewear will continue to be a growing category this year. However, fashion buyers I have spoken to expect that instead of joggers, hoodies and sweatshirts, there will be a demand for more elevated options, with knitted co-ords and layered separates being key sellers. “Leisurewear will continue to grow but in a modern way from brands such as Les Tien,” says Liane Wiggins, head of womenswear buying at MatchesFashion. The knitted dress is set to be a hero buy for autumn, as designers such as Jil Sander and Jacquemus have created beautiful form...
