June 03, 2020 at 06:08AM You know the drill: You pop on to Topshop‘s site to pick up a basic tee and end up with a basket full of dresses instead. We can’t blame you right now, as the high-street store’s offering is so good. But because no one’s wardrobe is big enough for the whole lot (there are currently over 518 dresses online right now), we’ve done the hard work for you and picked the hero styles you may want to consider adding to your closet. So what are the trends that Topshop is backing this season? From floral dresses and roomy smocks to long-sleeve numbers and sassy silhouettes, there’s something for everyone. We’ve got our eyes on the dresses that are versatile enough to carry right through to autumn, so many of the below styles will look just as good with sandals as they do with knee-high boots. It’s all about that cost per wear. Thankfully, there have been plenty of fashionable individuals who have been spotted in these winning frocks, and so we have more than enough inspiration to keep our wardrobes feeling fresh. Keep scrolling to see our favourite spring-ready Topshop dresses. Next up, the biggest S/S 20 fashion trends you need to know.

I Just Managed to Create 5 Summer Outfits All for Under £170 Each
June 03, 2020 at 06:00AM This week, it was reported that the UK has experienced the sunniest spring since records began. And, of course, in typical Brit style, we have managed to simultaneously celebrate by basking in any patch of sun we can find while still complaining about being hot and bothered. For those unfamiliar with the UK’s social behaviours, moaning about the weather is essentially our main way of bonding with each other. Anyway, I digress. As temperatures start to push the mid-twenties, it’s probably time to do a bit of a wardrobe switch-up and pack away our knitwear and boots and bring out the warm weather faves. For many of us, the budget may be an issue right now, so I wanted to put together a visual guide to creating an expensive-looking summer outfit without spending too much. I would also recommend using the below to spark inspiration for styling items of clothing that already sit in your wardrobe. For example, dig out those unworn shorts and style them with a colour-matching top and chunky chain, or why not pair a classic Breton top with white linen trousers? All set? Scroll down to see, shop and get inspired by the affordable outfits that I’ve put together for you. Next up, the biggest spring/summer 2020 fashion trends you need to know.

5 of the Easiest Ways to Clean Out Your Wardrobe
June 02, 2020 at 06:10PM My mum, Nancy, recently messaged me that it was time for her to clean out her wardrobe. While she has a range of timeless pieces that will remain staples, she knew there were a few—as she said—”meh items” that needed to go. While she has a strong sartorial eye, she wanted a check on whether or not the items she wasn’t wearing as much should be donated (when she’s able to do that) or saved. Given that we’re not near each other right now, I had her text me the pieces she wasn’t feeling for her own personal style. I then responded with either “purge” or “put back.” While she didn’t necessarily need to replace the “no” items with another forward item, she was interested in hearing my thoughts on trends to consider down the road. So I rounded up a few of the items my mom is getting rid of, along with some visual inspo from cool fashion girls highlighting the trend counterparts that could be worth adding to her wardrobe when she’s ready. I also included her feedback on each trend as well. As she noted, she’s into the pieces in question because they could work for anyone at any age (including herself at 60 years old). Keep scrolling for a bit of wardrobe-cleanout inspiration. “I used to live in lightweight cardigans with coordinating or matching scarves. I think the look is okay, but I’m into the suggestion of trying the cardigan and vest sets. I used
How Canadian Brands are Supporting the Black Lives Matter Movement
June 02, 2020 at 06:08PM As social media feeds across the world black out today in support of #BlackOutTuesday, we’re taking a look at the Canadian brands that are supporting the Black Lives Matter movement in the fight against police brutality and systemic racism. We recognize that a monetary donation and social media support does not fix the problem, however we hope that it is the start of a greater push to amplify Black voices and to promote diversity and equal rights both on social media and, most importantly, in real life.

But action inspires actions inspires change. And we are in this together,” wrote Aritzia at the start of a post announcing that it has donated $100,000 to Black Lives Matter and the NAACP in honour of George Floyd.
