As editors we try to stay on top of these by browsing Instagram and, of course, the new-in section regularly— but the true experts in knowing the best pieces to buy from M&S are their insiders. These women live and breathe M&S, and not only have great taste— but they get the down-low straight from the brand on the next big things before anyone else. So, of course, I had to track them down to see what insider insights I could get on the brand new summer collection.  If you don’t follow M&S experts Sam Briones and Nicola Dougan on Instagram already, you’re going to want to do so now. Below, they’ve kindly revealed to me (and you) the new-in summer pieces we’re going to want to buy while we still can. From perfect, easy dresses to classic sandal...

As a fashion editor, I’m always on the look out for those special pieces that truly make your wardrobe work harder. You know, those easy to wear classics you can turn to on any given morning and feel 100% confident in. Usually the sweet spot is somewhere between making you feel polished but still comfortable, like the perfect wide-leg trouser for example, or a chic knit dress. Sometimes, these items require a bit more of an investment, especially when you want guaranteed quality that will last for many seasons to come. Brands like Frankie Shop, Totême, or even The Row are overflowing with these kinds of wardrobe heroes. But realistically, we can’t all afford to fill our entire wardrobes with investment pieces, and so a huge part of my day to day job here at Who What Wear is focused on pinp...

Like every season, as we inch closer to summer, I’m desperate to wear all the looks I’ve been planning in my head. But this summer feels different. Of course, each season, there are always underlying trends paving the way for all brands and especially the Great British high street, but there’s definitely a feeling that “anything goes” is the mantra, and if you are working an outfit, this season is all about committing and going all out no matter how understated or maximalist your style may be. This week, I headed out to scour the shop floors of our favourite affordable stores and tried on some of the best buys. From Zara’s new limited-edition pieces to Mango‘s new-season colours, there were many highligh...

I know they say it’s sensible, but I’m not normally one for buying pieces at the very beginning of the season. I usually wait a few weeks until the weather starts to change change, and I can really get a feel for what I actually want to be wearing right now. Which is why I’d been considering my basket of spring/summer Mango items for a while. This week we’re finally seeing evidence of the warmer season being here to stay, so I went to push the button on some timeless pieces to refresh my wardrobe when I discovered my favourite high street brand (and the favourite of celebs and editors everywhere) had just started an up-to-50%-off spring sale.  I’ll admit sometimes I’m put off by a sale, especially high street, as they can be full of trend-led items you’re likely to regr...

I was one of the many eagle-eyed millennials swept in by Wendy McColm’s cinematography when And Other Stories first opened its doors back in the spring of 2013. ‘Rendez-vous’, an idiosyncratic fashion film, featuring the stylish Jeanne Damas, alluded to a narrative that set the tone of what was to follow. The subtext was the age-old fashion conundrum—having too many clothes, yet nothing to wear. To which its prospective customers answered with a resounding yes! From that moment onwards, I knew And Other Stories was a brand worth staying close to. Call me a slave to good marketing if you will, but ambiguity heightened the anticipation of its launch. It was also simultaneous with my foray into attainable wardrobe investments. Including staples, like jeans and t-shirts. Since then, ...

Bold dresses, colourful sunglasses and printed bikinis—this is what I’m searching for this summer. So, naturally, I’ve turned to Monki. For summer I’m all about bold, colourful pieces to celebrate the sunshine and embrace the return of Y2K style. And Monki has everything I’ve been looking for.   We’re seeing a revival of early noughties fashion that I, for one, am so excited to style this summer. Think bold graphic prints, vivid colours, and chunky mules—these are just a handful of traits that make Y2K style still relevant today.  The best thing? I can get it all in one place. From floaty dresses to stylish shorts, colour-pop sunglasses to fun, printed bags, Monki is filled with pieces with plenty of personality. Yo...
