Celebrity hairstylist Jenny Cho, who has created quiet-luxury hair looks for stars like Ana de Armas, Mia Goth, and Anna Sawai, has noticed a shift in red-carpet glamour. “Understated simplicity is stunning and people are quieting down where less is more,”

My potential swapsies included an Acne Jeans denim smock dress, another dress – this time fitted, dark wash denim from Isabel Marant Etoile, a satin midi skirt from Ganni, an LBD from Zara and some sky-high tan leather Pierre Hardy platforms.

We’ve seen a lot of Kim Kardashian over the years, but we’ve never seen her like this before. (Which is really saying something, because this woman has tried every trend under the sun.) On 20 July, FX dropped the first teaser trailer for American Horror Story: Delicate, the latest instalment in Ryan Murphy’s anthology series.

That said, topical products, especially medical-grade skincare, can help reduce the appearance of uneven skin tone by inhibiting melanin production, exfoliating the skin to reveal fresher, brighter skin underneath and strengthening the skin barrier. “Azelaic acid, niacinamide, vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid), liquorice extract and kojic acid have all been shown in scientific studies to target

As soon as the weather starts to get a little warmer, we want to spend our evenings down the pub, under a patio heater, savouring that sweet glass of rosè. And definitely not whiling away the evening shifting dry skin on your feet with a foot file. We won’t sugarcoat it (although, that might come

On Monday night, as hundreds of journalists, influencers and Barbie mega fans (myself included, my second viewing in a week) queued around the block in Leicester Square, festooned in fuchsia pink to watch an advanced screening of Barbie, there was a decidedly un-Ken looking man standing outside the Cineworld with a megaphone ranting: “Why do

Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes are one of the most private couples in Hollywood. Despite being together since 2011 and sharing two daughters, we weren’t even sure if they were married until November 2022! Still, the pair have kept their family together and away from the press for 11 years, which makes them one of

It looks as though Kylie Jenner and Jordyn Woods are friends once again after a four-year friendship rift. The former BFFs parted ways when Woods admitted to sharing a kiss with basketball player Tristan Thompson while he was in a relationship with Kylie’s sister Khloe Kardashian. As the pair were recently spotted happily reuniting over dinner, just

There are very few surnames – within the fashion industry or otherwise – as closely associated with one singular item as that of Jane Birkin’s. In fact, for many, the word ‘Birkin’ relates solely to the world’s bougiest handbag, and it was only after news broke this weekend of the sad passing of the ultimate

My default idea of holiday rest and relaxation is alone, with a book at the pool. And while I was intent on R&R’ing alone, I was drawn to group activities far more than expected. It was like being on holiday with a big group of mates. No forced fun in sight. However, I did make

If you’ve logged into TikTok lately and you follow relationship creators, or pretty much anyone who talks about their love life, you might have noticed a new word entering the dating lexicon: delusionship.

When styling curly hair, Larry adds: “Don’t use any rubbing motions when drying the hair; instead dab it then tip your head upside down and allow natural ringlets to form.” Massage a few dots of Larry King Nourishing Curl Enhancer into your hair, he notes, before using the the Dyson Supersonic Diffuser attachment on your

Companies are starting to prioritise sleep support to employees, including for new parents who are struggling with sleep deprivation while raising their children.

Her breakthrough role as the achingly seductive Naomi Lapaglia in The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) instantly propelled her to sex-symbol status, cemented by her role as the midriff-baring Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad (2016), and literal blonde bombshell Kayla Pospisil in Bombshell (2019).

Memory foam With its breathable open-cell structure, memory foam gives you important pressure relief, cleverly contouring to the shape of your body and distributing weight evenly across the entire mattress.
