I tend to gravitate towards tailored, polished pieces so you might be surprised to hear about one of my recent fashion obsessions: ripped jeans. I tie it to both the more casual, comfortable wardrobe I’ve been adopting this year, the grunge-inspired fashion unfolding on TikTok, and my general love of all things ‘90s, but there’s […]
Skincare has got seriously complicated. There are too many steps and too many unpronounceable ingredients, and do we really need a 12-step routine? Trust me. I’ve tried it all, and I test a lot of products, but I always go back to a low-maintenance skincare routine, the essential products that I need to keep my […]
When you’re a kid, your stocking is one of the best things about Christmas, but over time, they somewhat lose their appeal. Often stuffed with novelty gifts that will be stuffed to the back of a drawer come December 26th, we by no means want to sound ungrateful. Still, if someone is going to go […]
This year slippers have had something of a rebrand. As we are spending more time indoors, many of us are upgrading our slippers, swapping our tired fluffy chuck-ons for something that is both comfortable, but also helps to feel like we’ve got dressed each morning. To me, my upgrade was a pair of faux fur […]
When it comes to our wardrobes, one of the things we’ve discovered this year is that everything is better in cashmere. Yes, that is the bougiest sentence I’ve ever written. Okay, in reality, most of us can’t afford to cocoon our lives in this luxurious fabric, but boy, are we going to daydream about it on cold dark winter […]
I don’t know about you, but interiors are all I can think about right now. It’s unsurprising, really, considering we’re all spending a lot more time at home so we’re all keen to improve our surroundings. Sales of candles, furniture and DIY goods have gone up in the past year, especially since the beginning of lockdown in […]
Once a multicoloured tableaux of beach-bound bloggers, peacocking street stylers and café-dwelling 20-somethings, since the start of lockdown, Instagram has become an altogether more stripped-back place. Logos have been swapped out for bed linens, extroverted accessories packed away and replaced with shearling slippers, and knitted jogging bottoms favoured over look-at-me gowns. What a difference 6 months makes. Who could’ve predicted […]
Rule number one of dressing for the English winter? Never underestimate the outfit-transforming powers of a statement knit. It’s a tenet that is sure to become increasingly relevant as we enter our first winter with the backdrop of social distancing and as jumpers start to become a key source of creativity (especially if Zoom has anything to do with it). While in […]
I’m going to let you in on a little secret: Every beauty editor feels like a bit of a phony sometimes. You see, the truth is beauty is just far too broad of a subject for any one editor to know every detail of every facet. Take, for example, the subject of skin. We know that we […]
There’s no doubt that 2020 has been the year of the streaming service, with Netflix, Amazon and iPlayer saving us in the evenings and weekends. But if you’re finding that you’ve finished Tiger King, Normal People, Selling Sunset and Emily in Paris, then we have good news: The Crown is returning and this time it’s […]
