19 Outfits I Have Really Loved This Week

May 02, 2020 at 06:13AM While this certainly isn’t the way any of us expected spring 2020 to unfold, I take comfort in the fact that, together, we’re all making significant efforts to work from home where we are able to and remain indoors. But that doesn’t mean you need to succumb to wearing your pyjamas 24/7. I recommend you certainly make the most of it, but once you’re keen to start wearing proper clothes again, turn your attention back to this article.  I’ve been keeping a close eye on what some of my favourite influencers have been wearing while in their homes over the last week, and they’re dressing with the same chic aplomb I’ve come to expect—albeit sans shoes much of the time. And the best part is you likely already own the items you need to re-create every look that’s set to follow.  From chic co-ords and bright midi dresses to statement blouses and sharp tailoring, keep scrolling to see the best outfits on the ‘gram right now.  Bottega Veneta Mini Jodie Top Handle Bag in Black Intrecciato Leather Next, six flat shoes that are almost as comfortable as slippers.

I Just Found 25 Amazing Second-Hand Designer Buys, and They’re All Under £300

May 02, 2020 at 06:00AM Second-hand-clothes shopping has long been a pastime of fashion enthusiasts and budgeting students everywhere. It is one of those hobbies that have always had a certain level of mystique and exclusivity, as it requires many hours of rummaging, an eye that can spot a winner among a tightly packed rail, and of course, a mental black book of the best stores, many of which require venturing into obscure corners of London to find. This has all changed in recent years, however, and thanks to social media and the power of e-commerce, vintage has broken into the digital sphere and reached a whole new audience. From Instagram sellers and online markets to Facebook marketplace and Etsy, there are so many ways to discover pre-loved clothing. Best of all, many of these platforms offer a more edited selection, meaning they’ve done the hard work for you. One of the biggest brands in the market has to be Vestiaire Collective, the resale site that allows the public to sell their unwanted designer goods using a stringent vetting and authentication process. For fashion lovers such as myself, it is a gold mine of affordable gems and one-of-a-kind buys. Stocking everything from contemporary brands, such as Stine Goya and Ganni, to industry matriarchs, such as Chanel and Dior, there’s so much goodness to choose from. So if you fancy dipping your toe in the world of second-hand fashion but are not sure where to start, I’ve given you a helping hand and found 25 designer buys that I would

I Wear a Black Tee Every Day—Here Are My 5 Favourites

May 02, 2020 at 05:00AM There are a few wardrobe essentials I rely on more than others to create my signature looks. Yep, a black T-shirt is one of said items. I legit wear a tee every single day as the base layer to my casual and even dressed-up outfits. My standard daily vibe consists of a black tee, joggers or jeans, sneakers and a leather jacket. For those more formal silhouettes, it’s usually that same idea but with a blazer and trousers in the mix. Even though I have a few uniforms in my rotation, I’m always looking for fresh outfit inspiration. To give you a sense of the looks I’m into at the moment (for you to either test out now or note for down the road), I’m sharing my top five chic and easy ensembles that fashion people have worn recently. And in case you’re shopping at the moment, I’m also highlighting how to get each of the inspired looks. I also made sure to include my absolute favourite black tees in the mix to get a sense of a few specific silhouettes that are great for quality and comfort. Teaming a black tee with a blazer is easy and impossibly chic. Go for leggings or straight-leg jeans, elevated accessories, and you’re set. This is the ultimate outfit to wear at the moment if you’re working from home with the black tee (into a muscle silhouette) and joggers. A black button-down opened up to reveal a tee is casual but sophisticated paired with

Tiffany & Co.’s New Tiffany T1 Collection is Here

May 01, 2020 at 05:06PM When Charlize Theron attended this year’s BAFTAs, all eyes were on the delicate but arresting choker she was wearing; fashioned from 18-karat rose gold and rows of custom-cut diamonds, the high-jewellery piece is part of Tiffany & Co.’s new Tiffany T1 collection (available now), which offers bracelets, rings and necklaces boasting the iconic Tiffany T design, currently reimagined with bold beveled edges, and occasionally sprinkled with round brilliant cut diamonds. The designs reflect chief artistic officer Reed Krakoff’s philosophy about including luxurious elements in everyday styles. “It’s much more common for people to want to curate their own image,” he says. “‘This is my style; this is how I wear Tiffany.’” Imagery courtesy of Tiffany & Co. Addressing the enduring appeal of rose gold and its use throughout the collection (styles will also be available in white and yellow gold), Krakoff applauds its versatility, noting that “it can be formal or casual.” The unique qualities of the metal lend well to the “edgier” aesthetic of the T1 assemblage, which will appeal to Tiffany fans of all kinds. “When we created the collection, the idea was that whoever wanted to wear it could wear whichever piece appeals to them,” says Krakoff. The launch of the T1 collection comes on the heels of the Tiffany & Co. Foundation’s donations last month to the Solidarity Response Fund for the World Health Organization, and The New York Community Trust’s NYC COVID-19 Response & Impact Fund. The post Tiffany & Co.’s

What to Expect From Leslieville Flea’s Week-Long Instagram Takeover

May 01, 2020 at 06:23PM As many businesses have strengthened their presence online in the last several weeks, community gatherings like flea markets and multi-vendor pop-ups are devising ways to keep their fans engaged—and maybe even reach a whole new bevy of customers as well. East end Toronto favourite, Leslieville Flea, will dip into the world of e-commerce for the first time from May 3rd to the 10th to host a Mother’s Day-focused takeover, with vendors hosting informational sessions to showcase their wares; jewellery brands Black Dahlia and Caro Sanchez and footwear label Avarcas are just some of the goodies you’ll find. “I think that being isolated and forced to stay home in our communities has highlighted just how important it is to support these businesses and people who live in our community,” says Flea co-founder, Christine Roberts. Read on to find out more from Roberts about what you can expect from the Flea’s new virtual venture, and why they’ll continue with online efforts after social distancing is over. How did you come up with the idea to host the virtual Flea? When our in-person markets were cancelled, we were really disappointed. We considered going online on our website but it was really difficult to build the site and wasn’t the right platform to properly showcase our vendors. We decided that since we already have a captive audience of over 7,000 on Instagram and our followers are massively engaged and loyal, it was the perfect medium to host this market. Our

How Hollywood’s Costumers Brought the Golden Age of Cinema to Life

May 01, 2020 at 04:59PM There was no buzzier place in the late 1940s than Hollywood — it seems like everyone had dreams of being a star, lured in by the icons of the day and their captivating lives both on and off-screen. In Ryan Murphy’s new show, Hollywood, which starts streaming on Netflix tonight, a plucky cast of characters stand down adversity of all kinds to stake their claim in tinsel town, all while looking utterly fabulous doing it. That’s thanks to the work of costume designers Sarah Evelyn and Lou Eyrich, who spent weeks researching and conceiving of looks ranging from the every day to special occasions and major events. “I hadn’t done forties before,” Evelyn tells FASHION, adding that the task was not only to replicate the key styles of the time, but also “to wrap our heads around Ryan’s vision of the forties.” This undertaking involved a collaboration with fashion historian Raissa Bretaña, who assisted Evelyn and Eyrich in deciding how to approach the show’s outfits with authenticity, panache and correctness in interpreting any etiquette considerations of the time. “[She] helped comb through Women’s Wear Daily and Emily Post,” says Evelyn of the process, which was an arduous one to say the least. “A lot of this information wasn’t even in pictures, it was written at the time.” Imagery courtesy of Netflix. While it’s easy to take for granted the sartorial liberties we presently enjoy, in the forties there was much going on above and beyond simple

This Sandal Trend Is Everywhere This Year

May 01, 2020 at 04:10PM There are certain sandal trends that remain constant—among them leather slides, two-strap black leather, and sturdy Birkenstocks at the beach. However, one of 2020’s top sandal trends is a bit more left-field. This season, practically all of the key sandals feature an angular square toe. By Far and Jacquemus kick-started the look, but Bottega Veneta has officially put them on the style agenda with its sellout, angular-toe mules.  That said, you don’t necessarily need a designer budget to get in on the trend. There are plenty of pairs on the high street that also adhere to the square-toe trend, with some of our favourite pairs hailing from Topshop and Zara.  If you still need convincing, take a look at the inspiring outfits featuring square-toe sandals below. Then, proceed to see our edit of the best square-toe sandals.  Rosie keeps her look pared back to allow her square-toe mules to take centre stage.  Monikh elevates her jeans-and-jumper combination with the addition of square-toe sandals.  Vanessa’s collection is one of the most impressive we’ve seen.  Pernille gives her monochromatic ensemble a lift with some bright-red heels.  If your square-toe sandals happen to be mules, for extra style points, add a chic anklet.   The style will breathe new life into your trusty black trousers.  These thin-strap heels are minimalist perfection.  Jessie effortlessly matches the colour of her shoes to that of her strides.  Next: Five feel-good colour combinations that will lift any outfit.
