This “Boring” Dress Is Set to Be Summer’s #1 Buy
Fashion decrees that everyone should own at least one little black dress, but there’s an equally viable case to be made for the little white dress. Not that it has to be little (especially if you’re wearing your LWD in the city rather than at the beach), but as long as it’s crisp and bright white, then you’re good to go. There’s just something unapologetically spring-like and optimistic about this shade, be it lacy and whimsical or linen and minimalist. What’s more, the basic warm-weather staple was a pretty big deal on the spring/summer 2020 runways. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

2022 Volkswagen Small SUV: What We Know—Including Its Name
Crossovers and SUVs are the bread and butter of Volkswagen’s product line. In fact, more than half of all VWs sold in the United States in 2019 were such models. Predictably, the German automaker wants more of this sales action, and it’s leaning into it by adding a new, smaller model to its lineup. Earmarked for production at the company’s Puebla, Mexico plant, the latest Volkswagen crossover aims to take on the Jeep Compass, Kia Seltos, and Nissan Rogue Sport. As we previously reported, VW is not simply building a variant of its European-market T-Roc subcompact crossover for North American consumption. Instead, we expect the brand to build an iteration of the Tharu crossover it sells in China, albeit sold on our shores under a different name. Recent filings by...
2021 Bentley Bentayga First Look: Modern Luxury
Bentley’s Bentayga has long polarized opinion. The EXP 9F concept that teased Bentley’s first-ever SUV, unveiled at the 2012 Geneva Auto Show, was panned for its ostentatious detailing and oversized design cues shoehorned onto a platform that didn’t allow the graceful proportions expected from the iconic British luxury brand. The ostentation was toned down by the time the production Bentayga hit the streets in 2016, but the decision to build the car on VW Group’s MLB architecture meant it remained proportionally challenged. The facelifted 2021 Bentley Bentayga is still no shrinking violet. The proportions haven’t changed, but a host of styling tweaks are designed to make the 2021 Bentayga look lower and wider and more confidently planted on the road. And Bentl...
My Favourite Influencers Showed Me What’s in Their Summer Shopping Baskets
There’s no escaping the fact that this summer is a bit of a weird one. But with lockdown easing slightly, there are plenty of reasons to be joyful. We can now spend time in parks (socially-distanced, of course) and even with loved ones in gardens. Soon, pubs might actually be a possibility. Still, at Who What Wear, we want to offer a bit of escapism, and while we’re all scaling back how much we’re shopping, whether for environmental, ethical or economic reasons, there are some items of clothing that are simply happy. I asked some of my favourite fashion people what they love for summer right now, and they all chose fun, pretty and colourful pieces. It’s not going to transport you to a BBQ with all your nearest and dearest, but it might put a smile on your ...
This Sell-Out H&M Midi is 2020’s Answer To That Zara Polka Dot Dress
Gwyneth in Ralph Lauren at the Oscars, Rihanna in Giambattista Valli at the Grammys and Villanelle in Molly Goddard. What do these three women—real and fictional—have in common? Iconic pink dresses. While colors like black or red are usually associated with more standout looks, the pastel or vibrant shades of pink are still a knock-out. My theory is that it’s a more joyful, fun hue. If, like me, you’re prone to loving a pink dress, then have I got great news for you: H&M has just dropped what might be the ultimate pink frock for the summer. This might be a little hyperbolic, but trust me when I say this dress is incredibly good. It’s oversize. Tick. Has puffed sleeves. Tick. And has a neckline that is ideal for layering necklaces. Tick, ...
This Under-£15 Skincare Brand Will Change the Way You See Your Skin
It often takes a minute for beauty to catch up with conversations that have been circling in social media communities. Skin-acceptance and skin-positivity movements have been making their way around for a while, but no brand has really been able to capture that in an authentic way. Yes, unretouched photographs of models are a huge deal, but this authenticity needs to follow through in all areas of the brand. I’m talking everything from prices to how they’re engaging with their audience. Enter Skin Proud with its call to have us all embracing our skin. Not just one type of skin, either, as the brand has made it a priority to make the products and language it uses as inclusive as possible. Not a single person or skin type will be left behind, and in an in...
If Your Hair Is Snapping, These Are the Habits You Need to Change ASAP
Over the past few weeks, it’s safe to say that we have all experienced a beauty mishap or two. From patchy, half-fallen-out lash extensions to grown-out manicures and toes that need some serious tending to, there’s no doubt that our beauty routines have recently been flipped on their heads. The biggest issues that it seems almost everyone is facing, though, are those to do with our hair. Being unable to get out to salons means that many of us are currently facing unsightly roots and split ends and even risking at-home haircuts in a bid to better the situation. One of the most common complaints that I have come across, however, is that of hair breakage. In fact, almost everyone I have spoken to agrees that their hair seems to be snapping much more th...

Small But Mighty: 51 Summer Buys From the Coolest Independent Brands
Sadly, some of these labels are being hit by the current crisis, and as a publication, we’re doing our very best to support the talent we love in any way possible. That’s why we’ve dedicated our end-of-month shopping gallery to these independent brands. Honestly, we were spoilt for choice, and we wish we could include every brand we came across online (although that would turn into a long article), but we managed to whittle it down to 51 summer-ready pieces. Of course, we understand that many of you are tightening the purse strings right now, but we would love for you to show your support by giving your favourite independent brand some airtime on social media, posting a nice comment on its feed, or even just...
The One Place I Turn to For Luxe Summer Outfit Ideas
Working as an editor on a fashion publication, I am always on the lookout for new sources of inspiration, particularity when it comes to putting together a winning outfit. In the saturated world of social media, it’s all too easy to get lost in a hole of cookie-cutter ensembles and variations-on-a-theme influencer feeds. The trick is to look to places that might not seem obvious, and for me that’s Net-a-Porter. It’s simple: if I’m struggling to think of new ways to style something I’ll simply search for similar pieces on the site and it’ll come up with countless examples professionally styled outfits. Or, if I just need some general ideas for new pairings, I’ll look in the new-in section and see what takes my fancy. Plus, ...
28 Outfits That Make Basics Look Interesting
Minimalism is really having its moment this season. Thanks to The Row and Bottega Veneta, the pared-back approach to dressing has really taken hold in 2020. However, and perhaps this is more of a personal problem, is that I always struggle to keep this aesthetic looking interesting. Sure, I can dabble with a white-shirt–and–black-trousers combo, but I can end up looking a bit like a waitress. The thing is, I’m not a die-hard minimalist, so I haven’t honed the skills needed to really understand what it takes to make basics look super cool. And right now, with plenty of us working from home, basics are a must. So how do those who favour the above style keep it looking interesting when working from home? I spoke to four of my favourite minimalist Instagrammers and they all told me t...
2021 Ford F-150: It’s Got Screen Presence
The 2021 Ford F-150 promises to outperform its competition when it comes to max towing, payload, and horsepower. But nowadays, people expect their trucks to be not only capable but also comfortable and technologically advanced. Fortunately, the Blue Oval also improved these areas of its truck, giving its best-selling model a more inviting interior with company’s latest Sync 4 infotainment system. It’s standard across the board, however, the way you interact with it differs between trims and option packages. Bigger Screens Even base F-150s have a reasonably sized screen now. The 2021 Ford F-150 comes standard with an 8.0-inch touchscreen, which was previously optional. Buyers can upgrade to a Ram-rivaling 12.0-inch screen, too. Unlike the big screen on the Ram 1500, which has a ...
