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.

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...
The Amazing High-Street Pieces We Want to Buy This Month
The team at Who What Wear UK prides itself on uncovering cult items before they’ve even made it off the production line. We’re keen, to say the least, and a great portion of our time is spent documenting and analysing the Instagram posts of the thousands of cool women we follow on Instagram for high-street sightings. In fact, we have WhatsApp groups and Slack channels dedicated to these affordably priced power pieces, and we want to update you on them as soon as possible (aka after we’ve bought our faves). Our skills are so attuned that more often than not, we’ll have an inkling about a certain piece before it has hit the big time. Sometimes, you’ll find a flurry of brand-specific action due to a paid activation or natural desire to wear a parti...
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. I am by no means ready to say goodbye to bare legs, weekend picnics in the park or , but as a fashion editor I’m always looking forward, and I am ready to say hello to some of these new collections. Autumn outfits can require quite a bit of planning. Coat or no coat? How many layers are too many layers? The below outfit ideas will see you cooler days over the next few months, and serve you in September and October also. We find that this time of year is when stock is switching over from linen dresses and sandals to knitwear and trench coats is the perfect moment to take a pause and really think about what is missing from your autumn wardrobe befo...
2021 Bentley Bentayga: These Are the 8 Biggest Interior Improvements
Bentley created the ultra-luxury SUV segment when it debuted the Bentayga five years ago, paving the way for rivals like Aston Martin, Lamborghini, and Rolls-Royce. While we admire the stately SUV for its strong performance on and off the road, we’re somewhat disappointed with its lean list of standard features, especially given its six-figure price tag. Now, Bentley is updating the Bentayga with a more modern cabin. These are the eight biggest improvements Bentley has made to the interior. Larger Touchscreen One thing that revealed the Bentayga’s old age is its 8-inch touchscreen. Considering rivals like Mercedes and Cadillac are offering much larger units, it was time for Bentley to upgrade. Now, the 2021 Bentley Bentayga gets a respectably sized 10.9-inch touchscreen with ne...
Do It for Dale (Jr.) and Bid on His Old NASCAR Chevy SS Race Car
Dale Earnhardt Jr. may no longer spend his weekends competing in NASCAR, but the North Carolina native’s mark on the sport remains as deep as ever. So why not let the world know you’re a Dale Jr. fan by bidding on one of his old racing machines? This NASCAR Chevy was driven by the son of the Intimidator himself on five occasions between 2012 and 2014, according to documents provided to RM Sotheby’s. Set up specifically for road course duty, this bow-tie-badged race car took Jr. to a third-place finish at Sonoma in 2014. Its four other outings, however, were less successful, with the car reportedly placing 28th at its inaugural race at Watkins Glen in 2012, 12th at Sonoma in 2013, and 30th and 11th at Watkins Glen in 2013 and 2014, respectively.

We Try Before You Buy: All The Best Dresses From Who What Wear’s New Collection
Over the last few months, with social gathering and celebrations largely postponed, there have been very few reasons to get all dressed up. For many, our favourite dresses have remained unworn, hanging in the back of our closets just waiting for a special occasion. Though here at Who What Wear, we believe you shouldn’t have to wait to wear your favourite clothes, which is why we set out to try trial Who What Wear’s recently-released new collection during a local (socially-distanced) park visit. Featuring vivid summer colours—including pink, orange and red—and several of the season’s buzziest trends such as pleats, gingham and open-back silhouettes, Who What Wear’s latest collection ticks all the boxes for a stylish 2020.

12 Beauty Insiders Just Gave Me a Tour of Their Bathroom Cupboards
Working in the beauty industry definitely has its perks. Not only is it an industry full of amazingly creative and inspirational women and men, but it’s also incredibly fun. Although we might not get to sit and play with lipstick and serums all day, it is a big part of the job. Which brings me to perhaps one of the most obvious perks, free products. And while being sent all of the latest beauty products is without a doubt a blessing, it does come with its issues. The main one being storage. You see, the number of new beauty products that launch every single week is a bit overwhelming, and quite frankly, it’s all too easy to end up having more products than you do space (and face). It wasn’t until I started to have a spring clean of my own collection a couple of we...
19 Beauty Products That Smell So Good You Might as Well Be at a Spa
More recently, as I have found my stress levels rising and my mind and soul have demanded more “me” time than ever before, I have found myself reaching for my most-coveted smellies almost daily. I find that not only do they help bring some delight to otherwise mundane tasks (like scrubbing your entire body), but the scents themselves also help to evoke a feeling of calm and clarity. And yes, there is some science behind why great-smelling beauty products make us feel good (it’s all to do with aromatherapy and hormones), but frankly, right now, I don’t think it matters. If one divinely scented product is enough to put a smile on your face and help you get through the day, then I say go for it. Luckily, though, to save any mishaps (or irritation-induced ras...
