Although the big-name high-street brands (H&M, Mango, etc.) will always have a special place in my heart, there’s something exciting about coming across a lesser-known label. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with buying into the latest trending item. However, as all true fashion lovers will know, it can be easy to become disillusioned by the identikit ensembles that can come from sticking to the well-trodden path. My solution? Take some time every few months to dig around online and discover some new brands. This will ensure that your wardrobe is kept fresh, diverse and individual and help avoid the awkward outfit-clash moment. To save you time, I’ve scoured the internet and interrogated the Who What Wear team to find our top lesser-known affordable brands a...
To compile our autumn winter 2020 trend report I looked back at hundreds of catwalk images, and it quickly became clear that there is one coat trend that featured in almost every major collection and so is destined to dominate new-in sections this autumn. The likes of Bottega Veneta and Stella McCartney created beautiful trenches and tailored coats in buttery leathers—some real, and some vegan—in caramel, chocolate brown, teal and terracotta shades, as well as a more classic black leather. Leather coats have moved away from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer comparisons, as thanks to beautiful tailoring and rich colour palettes, these are some of the most elegant coats I’ve ever seen.

Take a quick glance at London-based digital marketing consultant Chloé Pierre’s Instagram feed and it’s pretty obvious that she has an undeniably cool style. From her proclivity towards the latest trends to the way she infuses classic basics into her of-the-moment looks, a lot can be learned from following her fashionable pursuits. This skillset of hers is precisely why I wanted to tap her for a story and was beyond thrilled when she agreed to indulge us. Fast-forward to today. Below you’ll find not just the seven summer trends Chloé is backing this time around, but also her take on each one and, of course, a glimpse at how she’s wearing them during her everyday life in London. For her on-the-mark commentary on tennis style (which...
The Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray is great as-is, capable of hanging with the best sports cars in the segment. But the “base” mid-engine ‘Vette is only the beginning. To really shake up the supercar establishment, Chevy needs to bring out the big guns. We’re of course talking about the C8 Corvette Z06. We’ve reported plenty on the upcoming Z06 variant and the possibly related C8.R race car, breaking the news of the C8.R’s dual-overhead-cam, flat-plane-crank V-8 more than a month before its reveal. Now, a recent video captures the C8 Corvette Z06’s engine note—and it sounds absolutely insane. In the video, a camouflaged C8 can be seen making a left turn onto a street near GM’s Milford Proving Ground in Michigan. Seeing a Corvette C8 in full c...

I have long associated quilted vests with the posh boys at university, who wore them over their rugby shirts with red trousers and boat shoes (if this image resonates with you, then it’s because you know it to be highly accurate). While I mean no disrespect to this way of dressing, it was and is perhaps completely different in every way to my own personal style. And, if I’m being honest, I’ve always found it lacking in terms of being, well, cool. But, as with literally everything in fashion, it’s eventually become a sought-after piece (even Crocs have had their moment in the fashion spotlight). You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be. It begins with giving you back power. Get to meet Beautiful people, ...

While there are, of course, plenty of jumper options from both high street and designer brands, I’ve recently been drawn to the entourage of up-and-comers staking their claim for the knitwear crown. With the homespun appeal of crafting reaching its peak during lockdown, it is the perfect time for smaller knitwear brands to gain traction. Some, such as The Knitter and Hope Macauley, have gone all-out with the chunky, handmade look, while labels such as Mad Brown Knitwear have cleverly harnessed the beauty of pre-loved cable knits to create their colourful designs. We do acknowledge that many of these labels come in at a higher price point but, in most cases, this is due to the time and effort that is put into every garment. ...
In fashion terms, Victoria Beckham is on the least shocking end of the spectrum. Her collections are reliably chic, pared-back and she often sticks to more modest silhouettes—if you’re not familiar with her runway looks, think midi-dresses, long skirts, oversized shirts and great tailoring. So then, it was surprising to find the former pop star wearing what can only be described as hot pants. The designer shared a photo of herself and husband David this week, and while she wore a signature oversized button-down shirt with the sleeves rolled up, she completed the outfit with the tiniest of white shorts. But this isn’t the first time she’s worn this look this summer. Way back during lockdown, VB wore a pair of denim short shorts along with a bl...
Nobody is perfect, especially me. An odd way to begin a car review, sure, but hear me out: A couple of months ago I wrote up a list of The Best 991-Gen Porsche 911s I’ve ever driven. Sitting in fifth place on that list is the Porsche 911 Speedster. Fifth out of 12 is fine, but I want to state right here, right now, that I made a mistake. See, back in December I got to drive this very same Guards Red Speedster up in Sonoma County. Thing is, I drove it the same day that I drove the 1953 Porsche America Roadster, and that little white bathtub of a sports car shattered my brain. I couldn’t even process the new Speedster. I knew the final iteration of Porsche’s 991 platform was good, superlative even, but any impression I had of it was cudgeled away by the America Roadster. Ye...
Ever wonder if you could turn your car’s interior into a full-on light show? Well, that’s now possible because many modern vehicles offer cool ambient lighting, even on non-luxury cars. Keep reading to find out what ambient lighting is, as well as what cars have the best ambient lighting systems. What Is Ambient Lighting? The feature utilizes interior lights mounted around the cabin to enhance the design and maybe even soothing driver and passenger. In addition to the foot wells, some ambient lighting systems often illuminate the door and dash trim, cupholders, climate control vents, and speaker surrounds. Some cars provide the option to tailor the color of the ambient lighting and a few even allow the lighting to pulsate in time with the audio system for added customizab...
We are well aware that there is a small degree of irony about the fact that we are waxing lyrical about knitwear, knee-high boots and coats, while sitting in front of a fan in 30 degree heat. But, in typical over-eager fashion editor style, we’ve relished keeping an eagle eye on the ‘new-in‘ sections of our favourite brands to get a glimpse of what we’ll be wearing in 3 months’ time. Well, it is our job after all. As always, & Other Stories is ahead of the game, dropping tantalising hints of what’s to come. All your favourite cold-weather heroes are in attendance: Think boots, suits and thick jackets, but we’ve also spotted subtle, but no less impactful, details that feel fresh for 2020. & Other Stories makes a good...
