6 Trending H&M Items The Style Set Is Loving This Summer

There’s no denying that this summer H&M has created some real winners in the fashion department. From the puff sleeve pink dress, that’s been worn by Zeena, Karoline Dall and more, to the sheer wrap top that garnered the attention of Claire Wakeman and Katherine Omerod, the brand can certainly be credited for some of the most buzz-worthy products of the summer thus far. Though, those aren’t the only piece that the fashion set is loving. In fact, several stylish influencers have been seen wearing other lust-worthy, expensive-looking items from the high-street retailer this summer.  Ellie from Slip Into Style sported a ruched dress last week that looks far more expensive than its £35 price tag, while Eni Illori has worn the brand’s lilac m...

This Midsize Truck Camper Is Surprisingly Spacious

Sure, there are plenty of relatively affordable camper vans out there. But if you’re looking to take your midsize pickup truck on an extended adventure, Scout is offering a cool solution that sleeps up to four people. Not bad for something that weighs under 1,000 pounds. The new Scout Yoho is a lightweight camper with a reconfigurable interior. The floor is just under 70 inches long, providing just enough room for the essentials. In the day, it’s a seating and dining area, and at night, you can convert the space into two separate beds. Since midsize trucks don’t always have the best payload capacities, it’s important that the camper is light. The Yoho comes in with a dry weight of 913 pounds, making it considerably lighter than the company’s bigger Olympic cam...

These Eagle GT Jaguar E-Type Restomods Take 8,000 Hours to Build

The 8,000-hour process to build an Eagle Lightweight GT starts with stripping down an original Series 1 Jaguar E-type and replacing its original steel bodywork with aluminum in a more durable grade than the original Lightweight E-types. This alone takes nearly 2,500 hours, Eagle says. Other changes are made for improved drivability, including deeper side sills which increase torsional rigidity, larger wheel wells to house wider 16-inch wheels, and a 4.7-liter straight-six engine that Eagle touts is an “evolution” of the original “XK” mill and produces 380 horsepower and 375 lb-ft of torque. A new alloy block, big valves, and special crankshaft, pistons, and connecting rods make the power gain possible. See all 11 photos Other details include making various castings ...

I Am a Dress Obsessive, and These Are My Favourites for Summer

My wardrobe is approximately 50% colourful printed dresses, and as an editor at Who What Wear, I’m lucky enough to spend a lot of my time indulging this obsession. Out of work, I help my friends to find wedding guest dresses and little-known dress brands and am regularly sending links on WhatsApp as an unofficial personal shopper. As I sit writing this story, I am in a pair of jogging bottoms I have worn for three days and so am well aware of how few of us will be wearing dresses right now. But that doesn’t mean we aren’t looking at them. Within my role as editor, I look at the stories people are reading every day, and the topic that is still the most popular right now is summer dresses. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagine...

I Try Tonnes of Skincare Every Year, But This Is My Desert-Island Product

Its secret ingredient is Estée Lauder’s ChronoluxCB Technology, which promotes the skin’s natural nightly repair process for healthier, more youthful-looking skin come morning. The foundation of this serum, however, is beauty’s super ingredient, hyaluronic acid. In fact, it’s full of the stuff. So while the ChronoluxCB Technology works on renewal and helps to counteract the signs of ageing, the HA helps to restore moisture and plump, resulting in a smoother, more hydrated and radiant complexion. The proof, as they say, is very much in the pudding when it comes to this stuff. As someone who has very sensitive skin (I just have to look at a bottle of glycolic acid for my face to start burning up), Advanced Night Repair has been my saviour. It doesn’t smell fancy, it doesn’t feel l...

The Unlikely Bikini Trend You Need To Try if You Have Small Boobs

It was only earlier this year that I stumbled across what I now call the ‘holy grail’ of swimwear for small boobs, and that’s the underwired, unpadded bikini. Of course, it all started when I spotted Lucy Williams in a tangerine-coloured two piece from Peony. Considering that underwiring had long been mentally filed away under ‘do not touch with a barge pole’, I couldn’t get over how flattering it looked—it felt like an altogether more chic, natural-shape enhancing and functional option within the bikini world. Yep, I was well and truly influenced. I nabbed the same style in the Net-a-Porter sale and haven’t looked back since. Also, it’s worth noting that many of this summer’s underwired bikini tops come wi...

This Summer I’m Most Excited About Wearing This ’70s-Style Print

Rarely a season goes by without the ’70s influencing our wardrobes. Last season we saw the reintroduction of platform shoes. Denim has also felt the impact of the decade’s style with flared jeans making a surprising comeback for the foreseeable future. The other trend that’s returned thanks to the ’70s? Vintage floral prints. To get better acquainted with what this means, all you need to know is that this pattern often falls under the following category: gaudy.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

New Land Rover Defender Too Soft? Meet the Twisted NA-V8

A quarter of a million bucks is a bunch of Benjamins for what looks like an old Land Rover Defender that’s been to the custom shop. But the Twisted NA-V8 is a bit more than that. Under its familiar shape is a 6.2-liter Chevy V-8, a strengthened driveline, a fully revised suspension, and upgraded brakes. Inside is a completely refurbished interior that includes heated and cooled Recaro seats, a touchscreen infotainment and nav system, and a bespoke eight-channel audio setup. Texas-based Twisted North America is a subsidiary of the British company that’s been selling highly specified high-performance Defenders under the Twisted brand for more than 20 years. It plans to sell just 200 hand-built, individually numbered Twisted NA-V8s in the U.S over the next five years. See all 15 p...

Makeup Artists Say These 6 Moisturisers Will Age You in Reverse

“Benjamin Buttoning.” Ageing backwards. Stopping time. If there’s one effect or buzzword that elicits the same visceral reaction from beauty editors, skincare experts and customers alike, it’s anything with the term anti-ageing in it. The truth of the matter is this: There’s no miracle cream, gel, serum or treatment that has the power to actually reverse or halt the signs of ageing on the skin. (Sorry, it just doesn’t exist.) That said, there are a small number of products that come pretty close, and we’re about to share an edit of them below. Per a roster of celebrity makeup artists—Emily Cheng, Naoko Scintu and Emma White Turle—we’re uncovering a curated selection of the best anti-ageing moisturisers. The keyword he...

4 Things Everyone Is Currently Ditching Their Jeans For

Between a pandemic that has kept us at home and the sweltering heat that always accompanies this time of year, there are fewer and fewer reasons to put on a pair of jeans anymore. If you are looking to keep your denim in rotation right now, though, be my guest (and get your download on a few new denim trends while you’re at it). But something tells me that you’re also itching to discover some summer jean alternatives like I am, so if that’s the case, then this one’s for you. Fashion girls are on the same page here, and I’ve spotted them swapping looser and more forgiving bottoms into their summer outfits, and some rather chic ones at that. Taking the lead are billowy, wide-leg trousers and a...

9 Autumn-Ready Outfits That You Can Wear Now

We might only be in the first few weeks of summer, however the weather this week is making me think forward to autumn.
