Along with the numerous other challenges presented by lockdown, it seems that everyone I know is in a serious cooking slump of late. It could be due to the monotony of cooking yet another meal (remember restaurants?), the ongoing clean-up of pots and pans, or the realisation your cooking *actually* just isn’t that good. But

On March 16, a series of shootings within a single hour at three massage parlours in Atlanta, Georgia left eight people dead, including six Asian women. At the time this was published, only the names of those killed in the first attack have been released. They include Xiaojie Tan, 49; Daoyou Feng, 44; Delaina Ashley

Trends come and go, but bare, glossy nails will always look neat, squeaky clean, and beautiful. For SS21 we’ve seen lilac, chartreuse and leather-look nails all take off, but they’re not for everyone. Minimalists know there’s one sure-fire way to guarantee their nails look chic with everything, and that’s sticking to nudes and neutrals. In

Whether it’s dictating our life choices, spending habits, hairstyle or even our skincare regime, our star sign can be super influential in how we live our life. And GLAMOUR’s resident astrologist, Emma Howarth, says that you can use your star sign to influence your sartorial choices, too. Obviously it’s all just a bit of a

Friends has been ingrained in our culture – and conversations – ever since it first aired over 25 years ago in 1994 (yep, we feel old too). But one debate about the long-revered TV show still remains: who is the best character? Whether you see yourself as more of a Type-A, mother of the group

Apparently it’s Spring, who knew? After what felt like the longest winter of all time (seriously, January and February felt like an entire year), the promise of warmer weather is very welcome news. But looking out my window as I write this, it’s chucking it down with rain, I’m wearing two jumpers, and I have

Women are tired. We are angry and afraid and just so damn tired. Since Sarah Everard‘s murder, male violence against women has dominated our collective discourse. We’re talking about it on the news, on social media, in our WhatsApp groups, and in our homes. For women, this conversation is nothing new; this fear and outrage

When Sarah Harding revealed last August that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 38 it sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry and with Girls Aloud fans. Having delayed getting a lump checked out because of being scared to visit hospital in lockdown, Sarah eventually received the diagnosis early last summer

When it comes to ads, there’s nothing better when a brand releases a campaign that truly celebrates womanhood in all its glory. Nike just released a maternity advert featuring a host of pregnant and breastfeeding athletes and it’s so damn empowering we can’t get enough. The video, titled “Toughest Athletes” released on Nike’s social media

Taylor Swift and Harry Styles may not have had the best break up back in 2013 but it seems there’s no love lost between the exes, who both attended this year’s Grammy Awards. The two pop stars became the talk of Twitter after Taylor was spotted on her feet, clapping for Harry as he accepted

Femtech has (rightly) seen an almighty rise over the past decade, as new technology such as period trackers, fertility solutions and things that generally make a woman’s life better are finally starting to be prioritised. Tania Boler, winner of the GLAMOUR Women of the Year 2021 Technology Gamechanger Award, has been a pioneer in the

For any fitness fanatic, foam rolling is an integral part of your everyday routine. One of the most popular forms of self-manual therapy, foam rolling can help to increase flexibility. Improve recovery and reduce muscle soreness following a workout. While foam rollers are targeted at people who regularly exercise, Betsan de Renesse, personal trainer and

I don’t know about you, but my experience of being educated on my monthly cycle at school consisted of my PE teacher telling us that when we started our periods it wasn’t an excuse to get out of doing cross country running. I remember being excited and nervous about when my first bleed would be,

TikTok has become quite the source of education – if it’s not offering viral beauty hacks we’d actually never heard of before (like covering our entire faces with lipstick to create a dewy glow), it’s suddenly having us raiding the fridge and kitchen cupboards to whip up baked oats or multicoloured rainbow pancakes. And guess

It seems we’ve never been quite so spoilt when it comes to TV shows. Whether it’s Netflix, Amazon Prime, BBC or Apple TV, there have been plenty of brilliant, binge-worthy dramas to tune into when we’ve needed it most, particularly as we’ve all been lying fairly low over the past year thanks to the pandemic.

This morning it fell to the high street to provide fashion fans all over the world with the kind of shopping thrill that’s been unsurprisingly lacking during lockdown. Partly due to the pandemic-induced closure of stores but also a result of the total absence of events, there’s been little call for a mega new dress,

Just like many millions of people around the world, I tuned in to watch the Meghan and Harry interview unfold on Monday evening – my eyes wide and, for much of it, my mouth hanging open in disbelief. I wasn’t surprised by the claims being made, but by the fact that they were courageous enough

Sarah Everard, 33, was last seen a week ago in Clapham. Now, a serving Met police officer in his 40s has been arrested on suspicion of murder. The man is an officer with the Parliamentary and Diplomatic Protection Command. Sarah’s case has shaken women everywhere. It’s left us afraid, bereft and overwhelmed. Why? Because it

The Bafta Film Awards have released a diverse nominations list for 2021. Four women are up for best director, and 16 out of 24 acting nominees are from ethnic minority groups. According to The Hollywood Reporter, this year’s nominations are “the most diverse nominations list ever seen in the British Academy’s history.” It comes after
