As any new parent will tell you, what you gain in love, hormones and nappies, you lose in sleep. “Sleep now while you can!” is the most popular advice I’ve received since falling pregnant – and as someone who is blessed with a solid 8 hours every night, I am terrified of what lies ahead.

There’s no better time than a national lockdown to test out the coolest new skincare/makeup/hair trends and snazzy innovations in beauty tech from the comfort of your own home. That said, there’s nothing more frustrating than spending upwards of £100 on a snazzy new hair treatment or at-home facial system, only to find out it

It’s no understatement to say that the second series of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK is the TV show that has kept us going through Lockdown The Third, and for that, Mama Ru, we are eternally grateful. Tonight, we see four queens – Ellie Diamond, Lawrence Chaney, Tayce and Bimini Bon Boulash – battle it out to be

There are few bags that stand the test of time better than a Chanel. Specifically, the Chanel 11.12 comes to mind when one even thinks of an iconic style. Colloquially known as the flap bag, the design first came on the scene in the ‘80s, when Karl Lagerfeld reimagined the house’s signature 2.55 (which was

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

If the name Emerald Fennell isn’t yet familiar to you, it’s about time you took note. Earlier this week, the director of Promising Young Woman was nominated for an Academy Award – making history alongside Chloé Zhao as the first time two women have ever been up for the best director nod (Zhao separately made

You know the drill: the sun is shining, you’re meeting your mates for an al-fresco dinner/picnic in the park – and you’re dying to wear that backless dress you purchased months ago. The only problem? You don’t feel comfortable going bra-less. No way, Jose. Or how about scenario number two… You’ve purchased a linen number

Rowan Blanchard was woke before we even knew what being awake meant. By the age of 13, the bubbly actress was a keynote speaker at UN Women’s HeForShe conference. In 2014, she openly discussed her struggles with depression, creating a public discourse around destigmatizing mental illness, and in 2017, she spoke at the Women’s March

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

Happy Women’s History Month to all, although in our eyes we should be celebrating women and all the ways we made ‘his’tory every single day. Still, this month is a great opportunity to remind us all of the amazing things women bring to the table, and that’s if they’re not the ones bringing THE damn

Rihanna skipped out on the Grammys this year and hasn’t dropped an album in 5 years, but rest assured, she’s doing just fine … and the proof’s in her new pad. The singer and Fenty Beauty founder is the new owner of a Beverly Hills mansion in a celeb-centric cul-de-sac … where she’ll count her

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

Craig BarrittGetty Images Brandon Maxwell has quite the resume, from designing for Michelle Obama to Lady Gaga to his designs draping the bodies of Meghan Markle, Regina King, Anne Hathaway, and more. But before he was a purveyor of high-end fashion, he spent much of his childhood shopping for goods in Walmart. Today, Maxwell becomes

Unless you’ve been living under a rock (and we don’t really blame you as we head into day 3948759458 of lockdown), you will have noticed the world going absolutely mad for Little Moons. Whether TikTokers are posting about them online (320.8m impressions and counting), foodies are queuing around the block to get their hands on

Since launching as an accessories label back in 2015, Parisian-based fashion brand Elleme has spent the last six years enjoying the success that comes with becoming an almost-instant cult sensation. A huge hit amongst fashion editors and influencers alike, the brand’s ‘Dimple’, ‘Dumpling’ and ‘Vague’ bags, in particular, can be seen decorating the Instagram feeds

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

From its embrace of the feminine mystique to an international, all-star fanbase that includes its newest face, Jisoo of Blackpink, to supernatural growth in sales in 2020 despite a global pandemic, the fashion house knows the power of storytelling. For its fall-winter 2021

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

The 2021 Grammy Awards took place tonight (14 March) with a virtual ceremony broadcasted live from Los Angeles, with some of the most stunning red carpet looks of awards season 2021. The annual show, which celebrates the biggest hits in music over the past year, was riddled with controversy prior to the night with artists

Courtesy of Giorgio Armani Privé Despite the Grammys being presented digitally, Music’s Biggest Night stays strong on the red carpet front. Country singer Ingrid Andress is attending her first Grammys from home, garnering three nominations for Best New Artist, Best Country Song for Andress’ single “More Hearts Than Mine,” and Best Country Album for her

So far this award season, celebrities have been adapting to the absence of the traditional red carpet by showcasing their stunning couture gowns in everything from their living rooms to hotel suites. And this year’s Grammy Awards – arguably the biggest night in music – is no different. In fact, some of our favourite female icons

Our Gamechanging Author Bernardine Evaristo rightly earned her title when, in 2019, she became the first Black woman and the first Black British person to win the Booker Prize with her eighth book, Girl, Woman, Other. Counting Barack Obama among her legions of fans, she has been a force for change over the past two

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

Style Points is a weekly column about how fashion intersects with the wider world. I have long maintained that the worst thing you can do to me is send me an email. But lately, I’ve had to revise that stance to “maybe some emails are good.” Between Molly Young’s books newsletter Read Like the Wind,

The term ‘sustainability‘ is thrown around a lot these days, often by brands making empty eco claims to tick a marketing box. But while the burden is certainly on the fashion industry to be more environmentally-friendly – and of course, there are sustainable brands making very positive progress – it’s also on us as consumers. Half

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.

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

Ironically enough, in Simone Rocha’s early days showing at London Fashion Week, the most truly subversive thing you could do was go against the punk-influenced grain of the time. Back when the leather-and-chain-clad off-duty model ruled, Rocha presented a counter-narrative larded with lace, bows, pearls, and, yes, even the dreaded pink. A look from the
