Sienna Miller Just Wore the Ultimate ’90s Trouser-and-Shoe Pairing
At this point, whenever Sienna Miller steps out in something new, we immediately rush to take notes. Not only has she already given us a fresh, new way to wear jeans and boots and created a viral dress trend this year, but her autumn wardrobe is a masterclass in how to dress for the season with only 5 key buys, making her one of our go-tos for new style inspo. She might come a long way from her boho roots, but it’s her latest throwback trend that just got everyone in the Who What Wear office talking. Just when we thought we’d seen the back of the Y2K renaissance, Sienna stepped out in a look that wouldn’t have felt entirely out of place on a 90s runway. The controversial trouser trend we predicted would be a success just hit the A...

Switzerland Sets Record for World’s Longest Passenger Train
On October 29, it was reported that 150 people embarked on the world’s longest train, journeying through a 25 km stretch around the Swiss Alps from Preda to Alvaneu in southeast Switzerland. Celebrating the 175th anniversary of Switzerland’s first railway, the country’s railway operators came together to create the new Guinness World Record-holding train which tows 100 carriages, weighs 2,990 tons, and measures 1.91 km (1.19 miles) long. The trip runs over the UNESCO Heritage Albula Line, known for its expansive curves and steep downhills. Operated by seven drivers, the train started from 1,788 meters above sea level before descending to 999m while recording top speeds of 35 km/h (10 mph). The attempt was organized by Rhaetian Railway with support from train builder Stadl...
Petersen Automotive Museum Set to Cover All Things Tesla in Upcoming Exhibition
The Petersen Automotive Museum has just announced that it will be holding a new exhibition dedicated to the EV manufacturer Tesla. Titled “Inside Tesla: Supercharging the Electric Revolution,” the display is said to be the “most comprehensive collection of Tesla products to date.” “Tesla has revolutionized the automotive, EV, technology, and manufacturing spaces within a relatively short time span, begetting the question, ‘How did they do that?’” said Petersen Automotive Museum Executive Director Terry L.

Zara Really Wants You to Wear These 6 Trends This Winter
I’ve spent years carefully crafting my winter wardrobe. I’ve chosen classic coats, knitwear that doesn’t date, quality boots that go way beyond one season and tailoring I can dress up or down. Still, I sometimes wish my winter wares packed a bit more of a fashion hit. I’m all about timelessness, but there is something to be said for adding a bout of trend-led appeal to your wares, particularly in winter when you spend a significant amount of your time wrapped up in practical layers. So with the idea of making my winter ensembles feel more timely, I thought I’d head on over to Zara to see the timely pieces the brand is recommending for the season ahead. Zara is the first place I turn when I want something of the moment. The brand doesn’...
Angelina Jolie Just Wore Puddle Pants With ’90s Shoes and Autumn’s It Coat
If I were to see Angelina Jolie at the supermarket, I would want her to be wearing exactly what she was photographed in while leaving a grocery shop over the weekend. Her chic, minimal style can certainly be casual and comfortable, but it’s always put-together—even when she’s doing something as low-key as making a food-shop stop. Not only was Jolie’s outfit low-key, but it was also quite trendy. The trends she combined were puddle pants (baggy, wide-leg pants that are long enough to pool around the ankles), ’90s-style flatforms, and a maxi-length coat. Leave it to Jolie to make trendy pieces look oh so understated. She did so by choosing neutral colours and wearing minimal accessories, which will help you also achieve the trendy lo...
I Tried Almost Every Perfume in Liberty, But These Ones Get the Most Compliments
There are a few places in this world where I’m in complete and utter bliss, and one of those is the perfume department at Liberty. Perhaps it is because I live outside of London without regular trips to the iconic department store, but I know that fellow beauty lovers will agree with me when I say that it’s one of the best places to shop and discover beauty, particularly perfume brands. Tucked away from the bustling Oxford Circus, the Liberty store (which is a Grade II–listed Tudor building built from old ships) is a tranquil haven from the throngs of crowds outside. It’s quieter than other department stores, and it has curated a brilliant edit of fragrances in its beauty hall. From the little-known niche fragrances to the perfumes worn by celebrities, it really...
Looking For a New Winter Coat? I Need You to See H&M’s Designer-Looking Drop
Buying a winter coat is like a rite of passage—something instilled in us as children growing up in the UK (for me, it was tradition my grandparents took me to buy mine each September). And as adults it’s a process we still partake in, albeit less frequently—perhaps every few years we’ll invest in a really good one that adds to our collection. Maybe this year you’re on the look out for a practical puffer coat (probably to wear inside as well), or a smart wool style to multi-task for you. Whichever style is on your radar for 2022, let me point you in the direction of H&M. The high street favourite has just dropped its yearly outerwear collection, and it’s full of expensive-looking designs that tick every trend—as well as all the classics. Of course, if you’re looking to make a seri...

AllRightsReserved and Javier Calleja Shape Rolls-Royce’s Ghost With A Colorful Paint Job
Hong Kong-based creative brand AllRightsReserved unites Spanish artist Javier Calleja and luxury automobile maker Rolls-Royce for an exclusive collaboration. The crossover sees the brand’s Ghost model — the purest expression of Rolls-Royce — scaled down and wrapped in playful hues along with Calleja’s unique outlines calling to mind his signature doe-eyed characters. As co-founder, Sir Henry Royce once said, “Take the Best that Exists and Make it Better.” The first-ever limited edition sculpture rolls out in exemplary craftsmanship from both sides of the fence. Calleja’s choice of predominantly pink shades accented with bright complementary colors meshes together in an abstract fashion with brush stroke outlines for a whimsical childlike narrative. The Ghost silhouette is shrunk to a perfe...
