Hands up if you’re a fully-fledged member of the “hot cloth cleanser fan club.” I certainly am, and I’ll tell anyone who sits next to me long enough about my love for this cult beauty product. When I say cult, I really mean it. This year Liz Earle is celebrating 25 years of their hero product which sells every 15 seconds globally and has won over 130 industry awards. Being a brand’s best-selling product for so long certainly says something to its credit, but if you need any more persuasion let me fill you in on its wonders. In the current beauty landscape where new product launches happen every day, we can all sometimes feel a little overwhelmed on which products to actually take the plunge with. As a result, tried and tested products can sometimes be overlooked...
As I’m now slowly venturing out into London again, I’m building up my collection of face masks so that I have one readily available in all of my handbags. This is an important item for practical purposes. I’m certainly not suggesting it is purely a fashion statement, but nevertheless, I’m finding myself drawn to the leopard- and floral-printed varieties that are now available. Numerous designers and high-street brands have branched out into face masks, so you can now buy a printed Rixo or O Pioneers mask to match your midi dresses. Gap and Mango have plenty of reusable face masks, in gingham, polka-dot and animal prints. While if you want to support smaller British designers or independent brands during this time, the British Fashion Council has teamed up with Bags ...
There are few people that embody the Paris-London girl chic quite like Camille Charriere. The influencer turned fashion broadcaster started out in finance before setting up her fashion blog, Camille Over the Rainbow, in 2010. Over the last decade, she has steadily risen through the style ranks to become one of the most in-demand faces in the industry (her follower count currently stands at 917k) and a regular fixture on the front row. Camille now co-hosts the popular podcast Fashion No Filter with her friend Monica Ainley, and continues to set hearts racing with her pitch-perfect, laid-back Gallic-girl approach to styling: Think Breton knits paired with statement collar blouses and straight leg jeans, classic suits styled with Velcro sandals an...

Supervising the creation of the show’s iconic red-caped dresses and white bonnet hats since its 2017 debut, she more recently took over as lead costume designer for the show’s third season. Now that Bronfman is up for her third Emmy nomination, she speaks with POPSUGAR about the rich variety of design references that inspired season three of one of television’s most visceral drama series. “It’s funny because I actually wanted to be an opera singer,” Bronfman admits, with a joyful demeanour in contrast with the dystopia she dresses, but it’...
Sometimes celebrity endorsements can be a turn-off. And I get it—just because a “famous person” likes something, doesn’t mean you should too. Usually, I’d be right there along with you, as ultimately you should like what you like, regardless of what someone in the public eye is doing. However, I will concede that when it comes to sustainable fashion, I’m all for a bit of an A-list boost. Two women who have been at the forefront of promoting ethical fashion are Meghan Markle and Emma Watson. While we know they love to wear sustainable fashion brands such as Veja, they’re both also fans of wearing sustainable jewellery, such as from Bar Jewellery and Pippa Small. I’m not surprised then that global fashion search platform Lyst revealed ...
When it comes to merging Insta-ready aesthetics with vintage kudos, Selena Williams from @selenasshop_ is well ahead of the game. She might not boast the same five-figure following as Joiner, but Selena has gathered a dedicated fan base over the last couple of years thanks to her pitch-perfect vintage ensembles, which she styles and models herself. From flowing Laura Ashley gowns to brightly coloured ’70s trousers, she’s sure to convert even the most vintage-ambivalent among us. “I started out by selling some of my old clothes for extra money, and once every item had sold, I was hooked, and everything else happened very organically,” she explains. “The past few months during lockdown have been my busiest, as I think many peop...
After being understandably denied the salon experience these last few months, it makes sense that scheduling in an appointment with our favourite hairdresser has become a priority, and will mark the first time that most of us will have had a trim since the start of the year. Much like actresses who contractually agree to keep their hair long for recurring roles – think Emma Watson, Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Lawrence, and Emilia Clarke, to name a few – it seems that, now we have the green light to switch-up our hair, we’re fully embracing the opportunity by opting for dramatically shorter styles. Spoiler alert: shorter hair doesn’t necessarily mean its easier to manage—particularly if you’re blessed with a head&nb...
Ahh, the humble white shirt. It’s been a wardrobe staple of generations. Though while some might consider the item plain or dare I say, boring, this summer influencers are proving the button-down has regained credibility as a fashion-conscious go-to. Whether paired with denim, linen or (my personal favourite) swimwear, the white shirt is a versatile, wear-anywhere staple that will seamlessly see you through summer. Given the minimalist aesthetic is currently a reigning fashion favourite, it’s little wonder the white shirt is having a moment, with many minimalist influencers finding new ways to champion the item. Sylvie Mus is pairing it alongside swimwear and statement jewellery, while Lorna of Symphony of Silk is creating tonal all-white looks featuring wh...

You all know we’re suckers for a pretty dress here at Who What Wear. If there’s any excuse to don our favourite style and flounce about, we’re very much there for it. Even for us fashion editors, it’s so easy to get stuck in a jeans-and-knit or -blazer rut, especially here in the UK where the weather can be summer one morning and rainy by the afternoon. But once you take a leap and pull out a dress from your wardrobe again, you realise just how easy they are to wear, let alone how good they make you feel. In these times when we’re all in need of a little mood booster, and a leg-up out of our tracksuits, there’s really nothing like picking an extra dress for your daily outfit. Dresses are consistently our most-clicked-on articles and products, so we know just how much ...
For full transparency, I haven’t worn an underwired bra for many years (and yes, I do concede that this is a privilege that comes with being small in the bust area), but previously my go-to has been lacy triangle styles from the likes of & Other Stories and COS. While I still love these delicate offerings, it was a 2-pack of sporty, Calvin Klein bralettes that opened up new realms of comfort. Soft, flattering, comfortable and easy to throw-on, the bralette has been a real game-changer in the lingerie department. It certainly helps that ‘90s fashion is having a renaissance this year (think of Kate Moss in those iconic Calvin Klein campaigns), particularly among Gen Z shoppers, so there’s plenty to choose from both high street and high-end designers. Good...
