Everyone on our team agrees that it can look chic (we have plenty of evidence to support this). What we can’t seem to understand is its actual purpose. “For me, there should be more of a distinction between arm warmers and boleros,” says our assistant editor, Nell Block. “Arm warmers implies that it’s just on the arms whereas a bolero is akin to a little jacket, which is fine by me. If you’re going to wear arm warmers in the truest sense, wouldn’t you just wear a jumper?”  “If I’m cold, I’d grab a jumper,” says editor Emma Spedding. “This is a look that’s aesthetic over function, which is cool, but let’s not dress it up as anything else.”  Let...

It’s safe to say that I’m a bit of a collector when it comes to fashion. Although the idea of a perfect capsule wardrobe is what I long for, in reality, I’ll probably always own multiple shoes in the same style and too many pairs of jeans. Then, there are coats. Shopping for a new style is something I look forward to each year, and now I have quite the collection I can pick and choose from. With springtime on the horizon, I’m also thinking about raffia accessories and linen dresses. However, considering I live in the UK, it’s always about layering. I’ll forever pack an umbrella, sunglasses, and a light jacket into the same tote bag (who knows what else is in the depths of said bag)—no matter the season. It’s also guaranteed that if I’m in the...

When it comes to particular wardrobe classics, there is a hierarchy of importance for me which goes accordingly: blue jeans, white shirt, black roll neck jumper. I have discovered over the years that my favourite blue jeans depends on the style I love the most at the time (sometimes straight-leg, sometimes cropped flare) and my favourite black roll neck came into my life four years ago courtesy of Ganni, which I snapped up in the Net-a-Porter sale. So, that just leaves the white shirt. I have a very uncomplicated view on this item. It should be oversized, cuffs not so long they engulf your hands and material thick enough so that it doesn’t show your underwear. However, despite my clear criteria I haven’t always been successful in my shopping endeavors. There have been...

It can sometimes feel like you can really miss out when you’re on a budget, particularly when it comes to fashion. It doesn’t help that so many trending items or influencer shots feature predominantly high-end and designer pieces that are simply not viable for the average person. Winter clothes seem to be the hardest in this regard, with pieces such as the AW20 puffer jacket typically coming in over £100, even from high street brands.

I guarantee that if you asked to look in any fashion editor’s wardrobe right now (over Zoom, of course), you’d spot at least one Danish brand. Over the past few years, the country’s influence over how we get dressed cannot be understated. From older brands that have been given a makeover to newer designers that have become Instagram favourites, it’s hard to ignore the impact this part of Scandinavia has had on the fashion industry. With Copenhagen Fashion Week once again on the horizon (in a digital-only format), we’ve looked at all the brands that we honestly can’t get enough of.  We often think of Scandinavian style as being a homogenous minimalist style but that’s actually not true. While Swedish people might opt for a more minimalist,...

Tracksuits are my kryptonite. I have been known to spend hours perusing joggers just to find the right pair. Friends turn to me to help them know which ones to buy. I’ve battled against other persistent eBay bidders to get my hands on a pair of vintage Adidas Firebird trackies. I have old pairs, and I have new pairs. I’ll wear them with my Birkenstocks around the house and have no issue with wearing them outside—I just throw on a pair of sneakers and a puffer. What I’m trying to say is that I cannot resist tracksuits, and I’m always looking to add to my collection. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Our wardrobe preferences have changed dramatically over the last year; slippers have replaced high heels and, as far as our outfits go, anything other than leggings or joggers has been rendered virtually obsolete. But now, things are changing. We might only be a few weeks into 2021, but we can already feel our sartorial appetites returning, with a real need to wear something other that makes us feel empowered, and dare we say, sexy. Cue miniskirts. Over the last few seasons, midi hemlines have been the main focus, as miniskirts waited for their time in the spotlight to return. And that time is now. People often associate miniskirts with the belly-baring, low-rise ’90s staple worn by Britney Spears types. But the divisive piece has come a long way, as was easily one of the c...

If I were to describe my personal style, “maximalist” would not be one of the first words that spring to mind. However, I do seem to have a bit of a magpie eye for certain bold prints, especially when they appear on a pair of high-waisted trousers. Perhaps it’s a trend that speaks to my inner vintage nerd, but there’s something so chic about pairing brightly coloured, cropped, and flared trousers with a simple white shirt and heeled boots. Whether it’s a classic checkerboard or a cheeky leopard print, statement trousers have essentially become my go-to method for elevating spring basics—think white T-shirts, crew-neck knits, and beige trench coats.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Gold hoops are one of those items, like skinny jeans and a white T-shirt, which in theory should be very easy to find, however in practice it can be difficult to find the perfect one. Over a year ago fashion influencer Lucy Williams released her latest collection with jewellery brand Missoma, and the gold hoops quickly became a firm favourite with the fashion crowd. The likes of Alexa Chung, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Bella Hadid have all worn these hoops, along with almost every fashion influencer in London. There are six available styles, with varying sizes and finishes, from every day subtle hoops to larger styles which are more impactful.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

They say nothing haunts you like the things you didn’t buy (or something like that, right?). Regardless, it’s a feeling of regret I know all too well. Last year, I fell head over heels for a cover-up from & Other Stories. Specifically, a woollen blazer. A light beige hue with an oversized silhouette and a weighty, woven finish, the blazer would make for the perfect accompaniment to my off-duty jeans-and-jumper outfits. It would also make for a chic throw-on over printed dresses and pleated midi skirts. Maybe I was waiting for payday, or perhaps I’d recently bought something else. Whatever the reason, I decided to wait for a couple of weeks to treat myself. However, as you’ve likely already surmised, it sold out before I could get my hands on it. As such, I spent...

Anecdotally speaking, when you work in the fashion industry, you fall into one of two categories: You either love tracksuits or think by wearing one, you’ve given up on life. I am in the former category—I have always had an affinity for sportswear. It’s not that I’m especially sporty (netball in Y6 was probably my athletic peak), but I like how comfortable it is and when worn right how smart it can look. I spent months hunting down a pair of classic Adidas tracksuit trousers on eBay and wear a specific pair of Ganni trackies all the time. You could say I’m a tracksuit aficionado. Today, luxury sportswear is everywhere, thanks to the explosion of athleisure. While the aforementioned trend has moved away from yoga leggings paired with oversize hoodies à la Bella ...

A vast majority of lingerie trends come and go, but knickers are for life, which is ironic, seeing as they’re the underwear style that is constantly overlooked. Bras command most of the attention, likely because they can be styled in a way that makes them integral to your outfit—think a flash of lace underneath an unbuttoned blouse, or simply on its own as your ensemble’s main focal point. However, as knickers are, for the most part, going to be covered up (sheer and naked dresses aside), they’re all too often forgotten about. It’s a shame, seeing as there are so many beautiful briefs to be had out there. Now, though, lingerie brands are putting knickers back in the spotlight, making shopping for your smalls a more stylish endeavour than ever before. But do you know your Brazilian fr...
