This Is How to Safely Whiten Your Teeth at Home, According to the Experts
You see, over the last couple of months, not only have my aforementioned dental issues worsened a little, but the appearance of my teeth as a whole has plummeted. Whether it’s because of the amount of tea I have been stress-drinking or just because it’s been a while since my last appointment, my previously pearly whites have descended into a state of yellow-tinged dismay. And I’m desperate to do something about it. Wary that my teeth probably aren’t in a particularly strong state right now, I’m cautious that I should probably speak to a professional before I engage in any sort of at-home teeth whitening. Luckily, I’ve got a few on hand to help. So in a bid to help everyone (myself) get to grips with how to brighten up your pearly whites at home without causing damage, I reached out to thos...
I Just Tried Over 35 Foundations—These Are the Ones I’d Recommend
Usually, I have to undergo several weeks of preparation before I can muster up the mental courage to embark on a foundation shopping trip. The first step is furiously scrubbing off the residual makeup that’s caked on the empty bottle of my foundation to try and decipher the shade name. It’s usually something arbitrary and food-related like cocoa or mocha, but that’s a conversation for another day. Then I make a hit list and map out the brands that I know have more than 10 shades in their range (or at least one that they deem appropriate for darker skin tones). When I finally make it into the shop, I’m already weary by the time I decide which foundations to swatch. Then I find it: a seemingly good match. Well, it’s a good match until I take ...
These £35 Influencer-Approved Shorts Are a Summer Staple
A few weeks ago, Lucy Williams posted a photo of herself to Instagram wearing Arket’s of-the-moment elastic-waist linen shorts. After seeing the image, I immediately found myself clicking over to the brand’s website, desperate to get a pair of my own, knowing full well they’d become a hero summer item I’d wear all season long. To my disappointment, the staple had already sold out in several different colours. Thankfully, Arket knows a thing or two about keeping their customers happy as the label has restocked the popular item in both the black and light beige colourways. An influencer favourite, already this season the shorts have been worn by Lucy Williams and Rachael Clifton of Bubbly Aquarius, proving they are indeed a very hot commodity. Th...
Who What Wear Spotlight: Our New Program Designed to Support Small Businesses
Who What Wear Spotlight was born when our co-founder Katherine Power had the idea to use some of our ad inventory to support small fashion and beauty businesses that have been impacted by COVID-19.

My Question to the Early 2000s – Why Did We Dress Like This?
The early 2000s was a strange time for pop culture. A time where women kissing was seen as shocking (Britney, Christina, and Links”>Madonna at the 2003 VMAs), but using people and pets as accessories wasn’t ( Links”>Gwen Stefani‘s L.A.M.B, and Links”>Paris Hilton‘s Tinkerbell). The early aughts was bizarre, for sure, especially between 2003 and 2006, which created some of the worst personal style of the past century. Yeah, it was that bad, which is why we absolutely love it. Early 2000s fashion sense might be trash, but it was totally iconic. We had a strange obsession with really long torsos. Not sure where that came from, but all signs seem to point to the debut of The Simple Life in 2003. Paris Hilton made Juicy Couture track suits, tiny dogs...

We Predict This Will Be the Trending Top of the Summer
Sometimes a trend comes along that’s so simple that anyone can get in on it without feeling like they’re being too ostentatiously “fashion.” Today, that trend is the sleeveless T-shirt. Once reserved for rock stars like Debbie Harry, thanks to brand of the moment The Frankie Shop’s versions, this top is now firmly back on the fashion industry’s radar. The defining details of the current style are that it needs to be sleeveless (of course) but with slightly oversize shoulders and a round neck. Colours are kept simple with white, cream, black and grey being the most acceptable hues. However, stripes and muted pastels are also great options. Further proof that this trend is going to be ubiquitous for the season is that you can find the top from lu...

Cate Blanchett’s Style Is Undeniably Elegant, but These 13 Looks Surpassed Our Expectations
Cate Blanchett has always been a minimal style queen. Even in the ’90s, when fellow up-and-coming actors were finding their fashion bearings, Cate had already mastered her personal style. The reason she always looks so elegant on the red carpet is because of a winning combination: her go-to colour palette that complements her skin, hair, and eyes perfectly, a careful balance of classic gowns and casual suited looks, and consistently poised poses — she definitely knows her angles. Cate is a fan of classic black-and-white looks, and we can’t blame her; it’s the most timeless colour combination to grace the red carpets. When she isn’t in a sophisticated monochromatic outfit, she isn’t afraid to experiment with frothy floral gowns and sweet pastel suits. Embellish...
