May 30, 2020 at 06:00PM It might be the early stages of spring, but it seems as though summer has taken the liberty of jumping the gun and blasting the UK with a mini Costa del Sol–esque heat wave. With the mercury skyrocketing from 8 to 23 degrees in the space of a week, we’re having to dramatically change tack clothing-wise, and swap our cosy fleeces and cashmere socks for floaty midi dresses and chunky sandals. Add to this the fact that many of us are confined to our homes, meaning we have to add “must be comfortable enough to wear when lying horizontally on the sofa” to our wardrobe criteria. Luckily, thanks to last year’s penchant for the smock dress, many of us will already have a few comfy dress options in our wardrobes—think throw-on-and-go numbers that you would usually wear on holiday. However, if you’ve found yourself with a spring dress-shaped hole in your wardrobe, we would recommend heading over to & Other Stories, Who What Wear’s high street go-to for directional yet versatile styles. From easy breezy minis to polished prints, we’ve done the hard work for you and found the best spring dresses at Stories right now. Scroll down to see what we found.  Style Notes: A checked smock dress is just what we want to wear when the temperature rises and all we want to do is laze around on our sofa.  Style Notes: For a bit of whimsical styling, make like Rachael Clifton and try a puff-sleeved minidress.  Style Notes: Sometimes less is more, and thankfully, the ’90s strappy dress

May 30, 2020 at 01:30PM Ask any makeup artist, and they’ll tell you prepping your complexion with high-quality, strategic skincare products before going in with foundation, concealer and powder is just as (and perhaps more) important than the makeup application itself. In order for your makeup to look amazing, the goal is to get your skin looking and feeling its absolute best. We’re not talking perfection; we’re just talking coaxing your skin into living its best and glowiest life courtesy of A+ products. Think about it this way: You wouldn’t show up for a marathon without putting in ample work and training beforehand. And in a way less dramatic sense, the same goes for your skin. Celebrity makeup artist Pati Dubroff (who works with Margot Robbie, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Kate Bosworth and more) once said she nurtures and prepares the skin for at least 40 minutes before starting the makeup process pre–red carpet. Of course, we don’t expect you to go to those kinds of lengths (for the record, we’re not attending red carpets and hardly have that kind of time or patience), but something can be learned from that type of expert-level stratagem.  Even though we know most celebrities have an army of experts, products, and in-office treatments to help keep them looking right and tight, we asked three of the most sought-after makeup artists in the industry (from Paris, London, and New York, no less!) to share the absolute best skin-tightening face creams they swear by for their lifting perks. Then, we took it even further

May 30, 2020 at 11:45AM It is a sign of the times that even the most formal dressers among us are living in tracksuits, sweats and gym gear. While I’m sure this was always the case in the confines of people’s homes, now seems to be the first time we are actually seeing images of what everyone wears when off-duty. Rosie-Huntington-Whiteley, who previously only shared campaign imagery or red carpet–worthy looks, has taken to sharing images of herself in her joggers (or “sweats” as they are referred to in the U.S.). Unsurprisingly, when it comes to casualwear, Whiteley’s at-home outfits are just as noteworthy as you’d expect. The model recently posted a photo of herself in Les Tien tracksuit bottoms. Made in the U.S., Les Tien creates simple basics and unisex loungewear, including hoodies, sweatshirts and joggers, with a focus on comfort and quality fabrics.  Just over a year old, the brand launched in December of 2018, though now that it has Rosie HW’s seal of approval, we can imagine it will only be a matter of time before Les Tiens is on everyone’s radar.

May 30, 2020 at 05:00AM Weekends are going to look a little different this summer. There are no two ways about it.While once we may have met friends at pubs or cafés en masse, now we’re having to socially distance in parks alongside one other individual. Group brunches have been replaced with quiz-filled Zoom calls, and trips home to visit family or loved ones are now relegated to digital FaceTime experiences.  And while summer 2020, will certainly not have the same feels as years passed, there’s no reason your wardrobe has to reflect this readjusted state of being. In fact, here at Who What Wear, we are advocates for continuing to dress for your own happiness no matter what the circumstances may be. With that said, I’m here to bring you weekend outfit ideas that will feel fresh this season, regardless of the plans you have in store.  From tailored, suit-inspired shorts and a knitted tank to bright patterned trousers and a vibrant cardigan, there are no rules when it comes to summer dressing. Make it as minimalist or maximalist as you like.

May 30, 2020 at 06:30AM There’s no doubt that the current situation has affected our daily beauty routines in different ways. While some of us are thriving as we take a more laissez-faire approach to our appearance, others are itching to get back to the salon. One thing that unites us all in our recent beauty experiences, however, is having to deal with lockdown hair. From grown-out roots to breakage, it seems we’re all at a loss about what to do with our lengths. Whether you’re indulging in more hair masks than ever or have even turned to an at-home cut, believe us when we say we really feel your pain. Constantly seeking new ways to deal with our misbehaving strands, we reached out to some of the chicest people we know to see what at-home routines they have adopted in a bid to get their hair to play ball. “My natural hair is pretty wild! As it is really thick, there’s a whole lot of frizz and volume (not in a good way) if I don’t use any products in it. It can also get quite dry so I always apply serums or oil to the ends after washing. Usually, I would blow-dry it straight and then run my GHDs over any parts that are a bit frizzy still.  “Since I’ve been at home more, I’ve noticed my hair seems drier than usual. Breakages are another pain point for me because, as my hair gets longer, it gets weaker. I can see it
