5 Spring-Ready Colours You Can Start Wearing Now
As someone who has limited their palette to that of neutrals for the past few years, my New Year’s style resolution is to broaden my colour horizons for 2023. I told this to my colleagues who, by now, are very familiar with my penchant for all-things beige and brown and, elated, they asked me which colours I’m keen to explore. To this, I didn’t have an answer. Of course, I know what colours are “in”—scrolling Instagram is a legitimate part of my job, so I’m always aware of what’s currently trending—but in terms of guessing the fashion colour trends that would dominate 2023, I’d be doing just that—guessing. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be. It begins with ...
Celebs, Fashion People and TikTok All Agree—This Controversial Shoe is Back
It started with a few Gen-Z-inspired celebs wandering into 2000s territory when experimenting with their style—Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid and Kaia Gerber for instance. But fast forward over a year, and the boots are near impossible to get hold of. And it’s not just the classic calf boots millennials will be familiar with from the first time around. There’s the embroidered Tasman slippers, the ultra mini boot, zip-fronts and platform iterations now, too—all with a cult following to be taken seriously. Influencers, street style stars and major a-list celebrities are now wearing theirs daily now that the cold weather has set in. Not to mention the TikTokers all over my FYP. One thing’s for sure, there’s no lack of UGG boot outfit inspiration, just in case you were still on the fence, a...
These 74 Simple Outfits Make for Satisfying Scrolling
Over the last couple of years, it’s safe to say my style has been built solely on comfort. Working from home more often has meant leaving the house less, even after the lockdowns were lifted. Living in Scotland and being the sort of person who feels the chill in even the slightest of breezes means that when I do venture out, I often have to wrap up and make practicality a priority. Aside from the odd dress or skirt-and-jumper combination, I’ve spent more time than I’d like to admit 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 I’ve grown fond of them and will probably still turn to them on particularly chilly d...
The 3-Question Method to Figure Out If Something Is Timeless or Trendy
TikTok has opened up a fresh space to discuss a range of topics in new ways—among them is fashion. Creators are touching on fashion in a range of ways, but stylist and TikTok “fashion teacher” Allison Bornstein‘s conversations about style and shopping have especially resonated. Earlier this year, we spoke with Bornstein about her “three-word method” to find your personal style (an approach that boils down to finding three words that describe your current style and the style that you aspire to have) as it went TikTok viral. Now, the stylist has a new method that’s gaining attention on TikTok that dissects pieces to figure out if they’re trendy or timeless. Her “three-question method” involves aski...
Everrati Transforms Land Rover Models Into EVs
United Kingdom-based automobile manufacturer Everrati is expanding its practice of converting classic cars into electronic vehicles by bringing Land Rover into the fold. Leading the charge is the conversation of Land Rover’s Defender Series IIA. With zero carbon emissions, the new modified EV can reach 60 mph in 13 seconds when compared to the original 23 seconds alongside 150 BHP and 300 NM of torque. Other specifications include 60kWh battery packs, 2WD and 4WD modes, a galvanized chassis and regenerative braking. What makes Everrati’s work particularly interesting is that the powertrain is completely reversible in order to uphold options and value. Although the Defender Series IIA is taking center stage, Everrati is set to convert Range Rover Classic models as well. Check ou...
A Closer Look at Porsche’s Collaborative Artworks With Rodolfo Hernandez, Travis Brothers and Isha Dipika Walia
auto upholstery Porsche is a global icon, not only in the automotive world but also in popular culture. Its cars have been featured in movies, praised in songs, utilized in fashion campaigns and used as canvases by visual artists. The car brand has always had a place in the world of creatives, and Porsche continues to be a proponent of the arts and champions the notion of giving artists platforms to express their work. The most recent example of this pursuit can be found in its Electric Art campaign. The Taycan is a hero model in Porsche’s extensive lineup—it’s the brand’s first and only all-electric car. Revolutionary in its own right, the Taycan also reflects Porsche’s vision of turning dreams into reality. As a brand that prioritizes craftsmanship and creativity, Porsche encourages crea...
It’s a Sign—Reformation’s Best Pieces Now Have 70% Off
The only thing is, I wouldn’t exactly call Ref affordable, and while it’s not in the unattainable realms of luxury brands like The Row, the prices can sometimes creep up into expensive territory. This, of course, can be a totally understandable side effect of more sustainable processes, but the Reformation sale is my hack for being able to invest in their amazing, responsible clothing with more reasonable price tags. This winter’s Reformation sale is particularly good, with some of the brand’s most popular items included, now with up to 70% off(!) I can vouch for the Cynthia jeans (the perfect straight leg style) and the Mason pants (the perfect wide-leg trousers) from experience, but there are also plent...
These 29 Brunette Bob Hairstyles Are Persuading Me to Cut My Hair
Every few months, I get this strong urge to cut my hair and get a bob. I had a 1950s-inspired bouncy bob once, and let me tell you, it changed my life. And recently, I’ve been spending much of my time in a never-ending daydream of reminiscing and searching for brunette bob hairstyles. What I adore about the brunette bob haircut is how understated it is while still looking like a simple haircut. Don’t get me wrong, it still requires plenty of skill from the hairstylist to make it look so effortless, but it’s generally a manageable style, making it a great low maintenance haircut. And there are so many variations of the bob hairstyle to try. A cropped, blunt bob looks totally stylish, as does a bob with a fringe. But equally, if you want to keep the length of your hair...
