Marilyn Monroe has been so famous for so long it seems as if we know everything there is to know about the late star’s life, including to whom she was married and when. Beauty lovers have even identified the starlet’s signature shade of red lipstick. But glam detectives had yet to formally uncover the bombshell’s

It was starting to look like the end of the glazed donut nail craze, even from its originator, but the iridescent style might be as trendy as ever.

Misogyny in the music industry strikes again! This time it’s directed at Wet Leg, the award-winning indie band fronted by Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers. The Times published a bizarre article over the weekend featuring Teasdale’s ex-boyfriend, Doug Richards, claiming he deserved credit for several Wet Leg songs (and their famous band name), noting that

Of course, you can always count on the Princess of Wales to provide a subtle and sensitive sartorial nod to her late mother-in law, and this week’s look – with its double-breasted blazer and contrast white lapels – was unmistakably reminiscent of a black such look worn by Princess Diana at Wimbledon in 1994. Also

Another month, another full moon, except July’s version is even more special than usual. Called the Full Buck Moon in Capricorn, it’s happening soon (3 July, 2023) and is particularly important as it will also be a supermoon, which means it will appear bigger and brighter than other full moons throughout the year. The big

So how did I fare sober? Well, if I’m totally honest, it was hit and miss. What I quickly realised is that being sober heightens everything in an environment like that. The incredible moments will feel wildly emotional; think uncontrollable weeping as Elton John belted out his final UK performance of Rocket Man, or being

If Bella Hadid’s favourite exposed thong was the risqué fashion trend of summer 2022, we’re calling it: summer 2023 is all about the exposed bra. Don’t believe us? You only need to take the briefest glimpse of recent red carpets to see several of the biggest Hollywood A-listers championing it, with the latest Cannes Film

What is human connection? What is this term, so often thrown around, but seemingly intangible? It is so much easier to explain why we need it than what it is. From my conversations with digitally reared teens, I think knowing how to define human connection may be vital for Gen Z, who emerged as the

Likewise linen, our summer go-to, will look too casual for cocktails. Corduroy or canvas twill will also be too daytime for after-dark events so choose satin, silk or chiffon – or anything trimmed with sequins, beading or ruffles. Summer cocktail dress code will be lighter than the winter cocktail code where velvet should definitely be

Undone ‘French girl’ hair, with its laissez-fair approach to styling, almost made our hair dryers redundant. But now that oversight has been corrected with the XXL bombshell blowout. The volume we once tried to smooth into submission is being tousled back into existence once again and now it’s poised to be a must-do summer trend

Finding the best mascara for sensitive eyes sounds like a highly specific ask for a makeup product that notoriously leadings people on never-ending searches. Just figuring out the best mascara in general can be tough, particularly if you want one that does it all: lengthening, volumising, and holding a curl — all while being easy

Aspartame has been listed as “possibly carcinogenic”, which means the evidence isn’t yet strong enough to say that it’s definitely carcinogenic. (Tobacco smoking, alcoholic beverages, and UV radiation have all been listed by the IARC in Group 1: Carcinogenic to humans, FYI). Is aspartame in Diet Coke, Coke Zero and Pepsi Max? Aspartame is a

If there’s one hair trend that pops up time and time again, it’s the modern beehive hair do. Made famous in the ‘60s by the likes of Audrey Hepburn, Bridgit Bardot and Aretha Franklin, this iconic updo continues to be a popular look amongst the celebrity set today. While we undoubtedly have Amy Winehouse to

In aiming high and collaborating, you can achieve much more and tap into the growth element of 333. Strengths Jane explains that the number three itself is associated with “ideas, enthusiasm, creativity, lots of light and positive energy”. She adds that 333 specifically relates to the ability to “stick with things” and “learn from all

Glamorous is the new television series that has taken Netflix by storm since its release. Firstly, the Jordon Nardino ten-episode series is an LGBTQ+ centred drama that has been released during Pride month, and as its leads, stars Sex and the City icon Kim Cattrall and Miss. Benny, the latter who, recently came out as

In summer, casual curls and beach waves are usually high on our beauty agendas. Katie Holmes has also always been a big fan of messy bedhead hair, as she proved just a few months ago when she showed us her natural curls. But suddenly we’re seeing the actress with an altogether new hairstyle that is
