Month: January 2020

Truth be told, leggings in the spring and summer can be tricky. Your black and gray ones have probably been glued to your body for months now, and you’re ready for a change. And while you likely don’t want to give up leggings completely until fall, thick, dark, constricting fabric against your skin doesn’t really scream “fun in the sun.” But trendsetting celeb-favorite activewear brand Alo (i.e., the creators of those moto leggings that are always everywhere) may have just presented a solution.

Alo, loved by legging-obsessed celebs like Gigi and Bella Hadid, Selena Gomez, Lily Collins, and Kylie Jenner, released its spring collection, and one thing is clear: They’re heavily endorsing nude leggings for the season. We counted five pairs in the Gravel hue, which we first spotted on Bella Hadid last summer. The brand clearly saw a hit on their hands and created even more nude-colored leggings, tanks, and sports bras for this summer. While the look, which can almost appear as if you’re wearing nothing from far away, isn’t for the faint of heart, we’re guessing directional celebs will continue to embrace the alluring trend now that Alo is fully supporting it.

Given her career as an actress before her entry into life as a duchess, Meghan Markle has had lots of time to hone her looking-good-in-photos skills. While her days of posing on a red carpet might be over for now, she’s still photographed at length almost every time she exits the house (or palace, in her case). In fact, there are currently almost 400 pages of photos of Markle on Getty Images. So it goes without saying that she’s a good person to study if you want to pick up a few photogenic tricks. I’ve done quite a few stories on her since she became engaged to Prince Harry, and I will say that there are very few bad photos of her, which isn’t something that can be said for every celebrity. She clearly knows what she’s doing.

Markle’s savvy photogenic skills range from how she holds her head to how big she smiles to what she wears, and I did the research to pull the universal tips to keep in mind the next time you’re faced with a camera (or, more likely, an iPhone camera). Keep scrolling for the Markle-tried-and-tested tricks and to shop flattering styles she swears by.

If you’re a regular Who What Wear reader, you’re probably well aware of which jewelry trends are currently everywhere and which ones are slowly dying out. Interestingly enough, though, the rise of Instagram-induced trends has influenced which jewelry items people are buying and, consequently, which ones they’re just not shopping for as much anymore.

According to a recent Edited report, jewelry sales for bracelets and rings have gone down by 2.7% and 3.2% respectively over the last year. It seems that earrings and necklaces have quickly taken their place. If you think about the kind of jewelry you first notice on a person, necklaces and earrings are unmissable since they frame your face, so it makes sense that these two categories specifically are having a huge moment. With all the selfies on Instagram, it’s only natural that the necklaces and earrings adorning the wearer will get their fair share of screen time.

Since shoppers are paying more attention to these two items lately, keep reading to see the best jewelry ‘grams featuring necklaces and earrings and shop similar pieces.

And now, check out our report on the biggest accessory trends to know this winter.

One of the great challenges fashion girls face every fall and winter is the dilemma of choosing an outfit that’s warm and comfortable or one that makes you feel your best. When temperatures drop, it’s a constant struggle between the two, as it’s pretty hard to build an outfit that does both. To look cute or be warm—that is the question.

Fall and winter are cheekily known as “cuffing season,” but it’s my feeling that regardless of whether you’re in a relationship, you always want to feel your best. Luckily, through my extensive searching, I’ve found a few miracle pieces that actually check both boxes—sartorial unicorns, if you will. Below, I’ve highlighted the 29 fall styles that are somehow both cozy and sexy at the same time so that this year, you don’t have to choose. 

Next up: six cheap styling hacks that make any outfit feel more luxe.

What’s cozy, comfortable, and actually-chic all at the same time? A knit dress, of course. It also just happens to be the ideal style for the colder months, exceptionally versatile, and available for just under $40—thanks to our very own Who What Wear collection for Target.

And, since it’s, well, freezing, and I was in need of my own outfit inspiration to get me out of my jean-and-boot rut, I figured I’d round up the best street style looks of late featuring knit dresses and make it easy for you to shop ours when you’re done.
