The 2020 Ram Heavy Duty Limited Black Edition Hates Chrome, Color

What’s the cure for too much chrome? Why, a monochromatic exterior—which is exactly what you’ll find on Ram‘s latest blacked-out special edition for its HD trucks, which won our 2020 Truck of the Year award. Taking cues from the 2020 Ram 1500 Limited Black Edition, the 2020 Ram Heavy Duty Limited Black Edition is a 3/4- or 1-ton truck absolutely peppered with black exterior accents. The idea of a black-on-black truck isn’t a revolutionary trend—after all, other factory and aftermarket customizers have adopted the theme for years—but instead of dying out, it seems to be here to stay for a while. Even if it is a bit tiresome, we’ll admit the all-black look is a mysterious, somewhat sophisticated, menacing, and—importa...

Atari CEO and “Beat Legend: Avicii” Developer Discuss New Rhythm Game, Share Unearthed Photos of EDM Legend [EXCLUSIVE]

Earlier in the month, we went hands-on with Hello There Games‘ upcoming rhythm game Avicii Invector Encore Edition for Nintendo Switch.

Thousands and Thousands of People Search for These Chanel Shoes Every Month

When you ruminate on Chanel’s most iconic pieces, of course, handbags jump straight into view. Who can deny the decades-long tenure of a quilted 2.55? But if you put down the arm candy and step away from the tweed, there’s another Chanel icon that always rises in popularity in the summer months. One that encapsulates French Riviera dressing better than any other piece on the rail. Welcome to the reign of the Chanel espadrilles: an item that is searched for between 10,000 and 100,000 times a month, according to Google Analytics.  Now, while there’s plenty of love for the Chanel chunky Velcro sandals (just open Instagram and you’ll see dozens), it’s worth noting that these flats are chic yet comfortable and inimitably elegant. Really, there&#...

I’ve Used This Cult Cleanser for Over a Year and My Skin Has Never Been Better

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...

Pretty Face Masks Exist—I’ve Found 32 of Them

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 ...

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...

2020 Volvo V60 Polestar Engineered First Drive Review: Boxy and Good

As the gray metallic 2020 Volvo V60 Polestar Engineered ticked, cooling in the SoCal air behind me, I couldn’t help but wonder, “What is a Polestar, anyway?” You have a right to be confused. Volvo, and its parent company Geely, have spent just enough money to make the general public reasonably aware that Polestar is the name of its new electric vehicle brand. But Polestar also has a two-decade history of developing stonking-fast variants of existing Volvo internal combustion cars in racetrack and street-legal forms. Volvo bought the Polestar racing division in 2016, then quickly made it the symbol for EV development and sales with the Polestar 1 and upcoming Polestar 2. What’s a Polestar? See all 31 photos And yet, Volvo still builds Polestar variants of its interna...

Sustainable Jewellery Brands Emma Watson and Meghan Markle Love

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 ...

The Vintage Revolution Is Coming: Here’s What You Need to Know

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...

These 4 Low-Maintenance Hairstyles Look Particularly Chic With Thick Hair

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...
