There’s no doubt that the year 2021 has been sent to try us. And while there are absolutely bigger things to concern ourselves with, I need to alert you to the fact that there’s yet another “naked” trend on the horizon for this coming season. While usually I’d find that pretty terrifying (personally, I like my clothes to actually clothe me), this is one look I’ve found myself drawn to. The cutout trend is easily the only way you’ll find me doing any sort of “naked” trend in 2021 (or ever, in fact). The beauty about this look is that it can be as subtle or as sassy as you like; a real spectrum on how to do it.  The runway collections for spring/summer 2021 demonstrate this with delicate slashes in dresses over at Christoper Esb...

If you’ve read any of our recent reports on the growth of vintage fashion, you’ll know that old-school style has never looked cooler. Whether it’s a sign of people craving escapism and nostalgia during the lockdown, or simply a by-product of S/S 21‘s celebration of all things retro, it’s a trend that shows no sign of slowing down. Unsurprisingly, this shopping shift has inspired a slew of vintage-inspired brands to enter the market, all embracing a thoroughly retro aesthetic (there are no half-measures here). We’re talking wonderfully ruffled prairie dresses, swirling psychedelic ’70s prints and XXL collars that wouldn’t look amiss on a royal family member circa 1985.

Could it be that the days are numbered for our puffer coats? While they’ve absolutely provided us with warmth during those seemingly endless number of winter walks, the weather is set to turn as we head into spring (I think I speak for everyone when I say finally). While there might not be as much snow and the temperature might be a little warmer, that doesn’t mean it’s actually warm. So then, a spring jacket or coat is essential because you know that the British weather loves to give us a decent shower or three. Out of all the high-street shops right now, Mango has been offering us on-trend but classic items that look way more expensive than you might expect.

Over the past few years, there has been a growing appreciation for classic items that are resistant to fickle trend cycles. There are a number of factors that have contributed to this shift, including the collective drive to create a more timeless, hard-wearing wardrobe in order to slow down our consumption, combined with the pandemic which means we are all wearing more practical and simple outfits. This means that many of the cult buys for spring are actually items that have been hero purchases for decades, and so will have a permanent place in your wardrobe.  One item, in particular, that is selling out rapidly across the high street this month is monochrome striped jumpers. This is an item that will always be popular in spring, and in particular, we love knits t...

Now, you could absolutely style them over trousers or, as Reynaud suggests, “a pair of biker shorts and sneakers”, but many are favouring to wear them on their own, sans knickers; thus igniting the no-knickers fashion trend. The big question is, are you prepared to go knickerless to wear one? Personally, I’m for it.  Ingrained in my memory is the episode of Friends where Rachel takes so long to get ready, but then she emerges in an incredible sage green dress and reveals that, yes, she’s going commando. It’s confident and empowering and, thanks to the high necklines and midi hemlines on Marcia’s Tchikiboum dress, it still feels classy. Plus, after almost a year of wearing joggers and jumpers, I’m certainly in need of some e...

Shopping on ASOS can often feel like an overwhelming task. Between the thousands of products available across myriad different categories, sometimes it can be difficult to even know where to begin. Right now, ASOS’s women’s new-in section contains 2,937 items, and even for a fashion enthusiast like me, that seems daunting.  That’s why when it comes to finding ASOS hidden gems, I often rely on inspiration from Instagram. Between the brand’s own page and the influx of influencer imagery, pinpointing a worthy ASOS purchase can be as simple as a quick scroll. Recently, I’ve noticed several of the stylish women I follow have been shopping at the e-commerce site, and my wish-list is expanding by the day thanks to their chic finds.&...

Elinor Block, says: “It’s rare to find a brand that’s been going for such a short time and yet has already made quite the impact. Designer duo, Marco Capaldo and Federica Cavenati, co-founders of 16Arlington showcased their first collection at London Fashion Week in 2019 and already have A-list fans, including Lena Dunham and Alexa Chung. In a world of copycat minimalists, 16Arlington injected some much needed fun into fashion week with the brand’s take on partywear.   While there are plenty of feathered creations from the brand, there was something about this hot pink dress that caught my eye. I wouldn’t usually go for such a strappy dress but as I’m contemplating the new ’roaring ‘20s’ and what that will mean for my wardrobe, I’m definitely open to suggestions. Plus, when...

There’s no brand quite like COS when it comes to treading that fine line between timeless classics and contemporary design. I know so many fashion editors who wear old items from the brand year after year that still feel fresh for every new season. Well, for spring 2021, COS most certainly holds onto its accolade of minimalist high-street hero, with a dreamy collection of transitional gems.

H&M has proven itself to be the high street brand to beat over the last twelve months, with countless of its pieces achieving cult status. It’s actually been frustrating for us editor types, whose job is to bring you the best new buys before they sell out, as they’ve already gone before we get the chance. So, we’ve had to up our game. We find ourselves checking H&M’s new-in section almost by the hour on the off chance that we missed the next big thing on our previous scroll. In doing so, we’ve been able to ascertain a few things. 1) That shackets are still proving popular for the brand, as they seem to have five new styles every time we check. 2) That oversized dresses are going to be just as prevalent for the season ahead as last year. And 3) tha...

And we’re not alone in championing the iconic coat. Year in and year out, the savviest street style stars continue to choose the classic coat in favour of other standout options, confirming that this universally adored item remains the ultimate investment piece. There are many brands that specialise in this particular breed of expensive-looking outerwear—Max Mara, for example, are known for their many iterations on the camel coat. Meanwhile, on the high street, we’ve noticed some labels are especially good at creating them on a smaller budget: & Other Stories has become a secret little go-to for us every time we’re looking to replenish our outerwear selection.

Spring 2021’s fashion trends have been beckoning us since last September when the fashion week presentations were flooded with statement suits, dreamy dresses, and streamlined understated separates. Though it may be the early days of 2021, out sights are firmly set on the springtime horizon. We understand that there might not be much motivation to dress up since you’ll mainly be at home, but the spring looks below look just as good inside as they do outside. We’re determined to find a way to start wearing spring-ready looks now—even if that means just adding a few bright colours to our outfits here and there. This year is still all about easy-to-wear dresses, but co-ords (particularly the knitted variety) and skirts have also risen their way to the top...
