I’m one of those summer people who prefer winter clothes. Let me explain: While I love the feeling of the sun on my skin, barbecues and longer days that the warmer months bring, I get the most joy from autumn/winter outfits. Playing around with layers, embracing cosy knits and picking The One when it comes to a winter coat are all part of the fun. But I sometimes (read: always) choose to take the easy option when it comes to getting dressed for cold-weather days, and this begins with affordable wardrobe basics. While I still look to my classic capsule wardrobe pieces—the white shirt, oversized blazer and good-quality T-shirt, to name a few—my winter basics are all about being comfy and cosy, but this doesn’t mean boring. There’s no rule that basics have to be neutral or that th...

My closet is lined with everything from investment buys to everyday staples, but trendy fashion basics are what really fuel my everyday outfits.

That’s why I’m eyeing all of the cool pieces on the fashion set at the moment. Their picks range from wide-leg ivory jeans to logo socks to cropped sweater sets—all cool takes on the pieces you might already own, but with fashion-forward twists that make them feel very of the moment.

When it comes to British fashion institutions, you don’t get much more iconic than good ol’ Marks and Spencer. It’s been there for us at every stage of life—from school shoes and first bras to grown-up winter coats and fail-safe accessories. Not content to be known just for its underwear offering, however, this high-street giant has spent the last decade or so upping its style game, creating trend-led lines such as Autograph to please the fashion crowd. As a team, we’re not embarrassed to admit that we are M&S superfans, and we’re always the first to spot and snap up a trend from the site. Each of us has a specific product that we always return to season after season, be it winter coats, cosy loungewear or chunky boots—it’s the ultimate proof of...

While we will always make time for extroverted outerwear and statement-making accessories, when it comes to basics, less is often more. Just think of base layers like leggings, underwear and hoodies: More often than not, you just want these items to do their jobs with minimal fuss. Of course, we still want a nod to good design, but it has to be paired with functionality. Gilly Hicks is totally on-point in this regard, delivering hard-working staples season after season in versatile silhouettes and appealing colourways.

The world of fashion basics hasn’t always been a particularly exciting one. Historically speaking, a sensible sweater and layering vest weren’t exactly considered the height of sophistication. But over the last decade or so, the fashion industry has clearly started to tune in to the value of this wardrobe category and is now delivering brands that not only make buying basics an appealing prospect but also elevate them to cult-favourite must-haves. While it only launched in 2018, Pangaia is one brand that has stormed the basics landscape with its rainbow of staples. I’m talking hoodies, tracksuits, sweaters, T-shirts, and everything in between—and the industry is certainly paying attention. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

I need not tell you that loungewear is big news, especially as we head into winter. For some, before 2020, loungewear was an after-thought or, at the very least, not something you got excited about shopping for. That, however, has all changed. Gone are the days when flannel PJs and grey joggers were your only loungewear points of contact—now, chic loungewear (the type you wouldn’t mind answering the door or even heading to the shops in) is all the rage. Now, dominating the retail space, there are more loungewear sets out there to buy than ever. Herein lies the problem. Which loungewear sets look most premium (even when they’re not)? I believe the answer is ribbed loungewear sets. Hear me out.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what ...

There are areas of our bodies that we would all like a bit of extra control on, whether it’s a bit of lift in the bust or butt or a little added support in our hips and thigh area. There’s certainly nothing wrong, either, with turning to a pair of Spanx or shaping shorts when you’re in need of a little oomph—celebs do it all the time, especially when it comes to walking the red carpet. Luckily, the market is chock-full of great shapewear that promises to smooth out any lumps or bumps where you want to. Today, we’re honing in on all the best tummy-control shapewear that we think is 100% worth the investment. These are pieces you can wear whenever you feel the need to trim your tummy, shape your waistline and support your back. Ready to s...

If there’s anyone who has mastered the art of wardrobe basics, it’s Zoë Kravitz. The actress has been on my Pinterest boards and Tumblr mood boards for as long as I’ve been interested in celebrity style, and I’ve yet to tire of her simple yet effortlessly cool outfits. If you’ve been keeping up with all things Kravitz, you’d know that she’s been stepping out in New York (with boyfriend Channing Tatum, no less) in outfits that have been making the internet lose its mind—this editor included. While 2021 Zoë Kravitz is a total vibe, taking a look at her recent street style has inspired me to do a deep dive into the archives of some of her all-time best ensembles. After spending the morning going through tonnes of str...
