Struggling to Manage Your Roots? These Cover-Up Products Should Do the Trick
But what if I told you it didn’t have to be so hard? In fact, temporarily covering up your roots at home couldn’t be easier. Without dyes, bleach or even toner, root concealers and cover-ups provide the ultimate quick fix. By dispersing powdered pigment (either with a spray product or with a brush) through affected areas, you can minimise the appearance of bold, contrasting roots in a matter of seconds. And, while I by no means promise they will sort the problem completely, they certainly do a stand-up job at blending roots and minimising their appearance. Sound like something you could benefit from right now? Keep scrolling for the best root concealers out there… You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

17 Women Around the World Share Their Quarantine Self-Care Routines
The most helpful sentiments I’ve scrolled past all voice a similar message: As long as you’re abiding by the recommendations of the government and WHO, taking every precaution to keep yourself and others safe, there’s no “right” way to do self-care. You don’t need to write that novel, alphabetise your food cupboards, get in amazing shape or somehow spin this whole experience into a good thing (unless you want to, of course). The only thing any of us “needs” to do is protect our own health and the health of our communities. The rest is going to look very different from one person to the next. I was talking to a friend on the phone this morning for whom this quarantine has served as creative fuel. “I’m going to write a children’s book,” she told me. “I’ve been thinking about ...
Discounted Fashion Boxes From Topshop and New Look Help Garment Workers Fight COVID-19
Edinburgh-based shopping app Mallzee is tackling fast fashion’s transparency problem with the launch of Lost Stock clothing boxes. Mallzee fills the boxes with cancelled clothing orders from brands like Topshop, New Look, and Urban Outfitters, and the proceeds from sales supports garment workers fighting the coronavirus (Covid-19), while reducing new season clothing from ending up in landfill. “If coronavirus doesn’t kill my workers, then starvation will,” says a Bangladeshi factory owner in a statement from Mallzee. It’s no secret that fast fashion’s negligence of ethical and sustainable supply chains has been further exposed by the coronavirus. Major retailers like Arcadia Group, New Look, Debenhams, and Sports Direct are only a few brands that have ca...
Everyone We Know Owns a Pair of These Cult Sneakers
When Emma Watson and Meghan Markle wore a pair of trainers by the conscious French brand Veja, it quickly became one of the most talked-about sneaker brands in the UK. The classic white basket sneaks (made from recycled plastic bottles and wild rubber) feature the distinctive V logo in varying colours on each side. Emma Watson first wore the trainers back in October 2016, but it wasn’t until 18 months later that the seemingly simple lace-ups started gaining such widespread popularity. Much like other classic trainers (think Converse and Vans), these are rapidly becoming a staple for when you need a comfortable yet stylish pair of shoes. Plus, these sneakers are so minimalist in design that they work with every type of ensemble—from midi dresses to straight-leg jeans. The Ve...
5 Loungewear Outfit Ideas I’ve Fallen for This Summer
Is it just me, or does anyone else feel like they physically won’t be able to return to jeans once we come out of lockdown? Don’t get me wrong. It’s not like I’ve been schlepping around in pyjamas 24/7, but even when I put on a nice blouse, I’ve been pairing it with waist-friendly joggers or knitted trousers. When I wrestled on my favourite jeans last weekend, it felt like I was walking around in a wetsuit. Anyway, I digress. My point is that many of us are finally settling into the joys of loungewear, however that translates into your wardrobe or personal style. And now that summer’s ’round the corner, here at Who What Wear, we’ve been keeping an eye out for outfits that will make us feel comfy, cool and ju...
The Fail-Safe Dress Style Fashion Editors Turn to Every Summer
Ah, the humble midi dress. It is undeniably one of the most versatile items that anyone can have in their wardrobe. Do you need an easy throw-on option for weekday mornings? Choose a midi dress. Are you looking for a way to feel polished but still comfortable? Wear a midi dress. Do you crave the simplicity of an all-in-one outfit? May we suggest a midi dress? Transcending traditional fashion seasons, midi dresses are one of those staples that could be worn for just about any occasion. For example, a black, puff-sleeve midi could easily take you to a formal event with the addition of some heels and jewellery but could also be worn for weekend brunch when paired with sneakers and a denim jacket. As you can see below, the item looks just as good with strappy heels as it does when worn with sa...
30 Items for Those Spending More Time Dressing Tables Than Themselves
These days, many of us are spending more time thinking about how we dress our tables than how we dress ourselves. At the start of lockdown, Laura Jackson started a movement called #makeamealofit, where she encouraged us all to cherish dinner time, whether we are isolating alone, with friends or with family. It’s all about making our evening meals an event to look forward to at the end of the day—taking the time to put down our phones (after taking a tablescape picture, of course), eating something delicious and bringing out those plates or wine that you’d usually only save for fancy occasions. The pictures that she reposts every day show that people are taking as much time putting together their tablescapes as they are preparing their actual dinners. The pi...

From the OG Air Jordan 1 of the 80’s to the remixes that Travis Scott and Virgil Abloh have provided to classic silhouettes in recent years, the Air Jord...
Harry Styles’s New Music Video Is Providing So Much Summer Outfit Inspiration
Although frolicking on a beach with 20 of your nearest and dearest and a buffet of fresh fruit may not be a reality this summer, one thing you can emulate from Styles’s clip is its retro-inspired outfits. With a kaleidoscope of colour and quirky accessories—it’s got star-shaped earrings and sunglasses, to boot—the costumes in the video highlight a sort of escapism and a carefree summer attitude we could all benefit from right now. While decidedly vintage in aesthetic, many of the key pieces in the clip are iterations of what can be found online today. Rainbow-hued crochet pieces are readily available at Free People, while Saint Laurent and Christopher Kane have both dabbled in creating heart-shaped sunglasses. Tie-dye prints are everywhere across high-street and desi...

These Zara Candles Were Created by Jo Malone, and They’re Only £16
In fact, much like Jo Loves scents themselves, the Zara Emotions range delivers expensive-smelling scents that evoke a sense of nostalgia that has you going back for more. And now, there are candles for £16, which, might I add, just like the perfumes, have a lingering scent that fills a room in a way only the most expensive do. Honestly, since discovering them, not only have I ordered six of the things, but I have also stopped buying any other candles at all. Because frankly, what’s the point in spending £40 when I can get a Zara one for less than half of the price. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

I’m No Makeup Expert, But These Are the Easy-to-Use Products I Swear By
Don’t get me wrong. I do love playing with makeup, and I know a great product when I see one, but when I compare my results to those of someone with a little more artistic flair, I find myself deflated and somewhat disappointed. And this is by no means news to me. I have been aware of my shoddy makeup skills since the early stages of my career. The minute I found myself surrounded by editors whose eye shadow looks could put even the greatest YouTubers to shame, I knew my place. So in a bid to find my niche in the often-crazy world of makeup, I started focussing my attention on makeup launches that most appealed to me on a personal level. Forget bright eye shadow palettes and complex contour kits. I started educating myself in makeup that anyone can use. You know, the kind of products ...
