May 11, 2020 at 06:00AM We have been listening to our readers more than ever over the past few months, to ensure we are only delivering what you really want to read. There have been requests for how to cover your grown-out roots and loungewear outfit ideas of course, but I’d estimate that one in two messages we receive is asking us to keep with business as usual. We have never been asked to provide so many high street shopping edits.  It’s unlikely we’ll be heading into a changing room for quite some time, and so curated edits and first person reviews can really help you to see if the e-commerce pictures match what will arrive at your front door. If you are missing some key items from your summer wardrobe, there are three high street brands that have delivered the strongest collections so far. H&M, Mango and Arket all have lots of easy-to-style, throw-on pieces that have enough personality to feel note-worthy, but are also classic enough to stand the test of time. Keep scrolling for the 10 best pieces for summer from H&M, Mango and Arket.  For summer, H&M has lots of breezy lightweight separates, with linen and crinkled fabrics in neutral colour palettes. Our favourite throw-on items include a pair of linen joggers and a lemon-print dress that has us dreaming of Amalfi. Arket has a reputation for being one of the most reserved labels on the high street and the place to shop for elevated basics—however you would never guess this from

May 11, 2020 at 05:10AM While boring style tends to get a bad rap, when it comes to basics, I actually feel that boring is better. Not only do simple pieces tend to pair well with more things and have the ability to work harder for your wardrobe, but they’re also inherently classic and thus better long-term investments. So while you might not want to dress boring, shopping as such can actually be a good idea. Keeping this little lesson in mind, today I decided to round up the “boring” basics you’ll want to hold on to forever. In other words, if you’re cleaning out your wardrobe (as we’ve been doing a lot of recently), unless there’s irreparable damage to these items or they don’t fit, you probably don’t want to add them to your toss pile. To see, read about, and (of course) shop all eight of the categories that made the cut, just keep scrolling.  Not only is the button-down a timeless staple, but it’s also one you can use in every season. Wear one alone, layered under something, or open as a light jacket. Either way, you’ll want to use (and hold on to) them forever. As the recent resurgence of all things suiting has shown us, a good pair of trousers will always have a place in your wardrobe.  Basic leather slides are a spring and summer staple that, design-wise, don’t change often. Odds are that if you invest in a simple pair, you’ll want to wear them year

May 11, 2020 at 05:00AM We created What to Buy Now to bring you a concise edit every Monday on the items we really love—from the high street, designer labels, vintage gems you can buy online and even charity-shop treasures. We’re constantly scanning the most stylish online stores so you can feel safe in the knowledge that you won’t miss a thing. We know that your fashion requirements can vary massively from season to season, whether you’re looking for an immaculately tailored staple, an affordable sundress or the perfect pair of shoes. So not only will we cover all the bases, but as ardent believers in mindful consumption, we’ll make sure everything we include will look just as fresh in a year’s time as it does now. Of course, we’ll also bring you those pieces that simply set your heart racing in a way that only fashion can. This week’s highlights include plenty of winning wardrobe gems, including an expensive-looking top from Arket, dreamy trousers from H&M, a fabulous vintage Fendi bag and an investment blazer from Nanushka. Scroll down to shop the buys on my wish list this week. You know what to do. I’m not usually a fan of one-shoulder tops, but this is undeniably chic. A capsule collection to take note of. One of Team WWW has already added these to basket. Chunky sandals meet zebra print; shoe heaven is born. One of the best straight-leg styled I’ve seen on the high street. Yes, you can find Fendi for under £250. The pure definition of “pretty as a picture.” Wear with
