How can you ever really prepare for motherhood? Sure, you’ve gone to the prenatal classes, decorated your nursery and you might have jumped on the hypnobirthing bandwagon, but what about when your baby – the entire human being that you have just birthed – arrives? No one tells you to prepare for the bleeding, the

Following French-Tunisian designer Azzedine Alaïa’s death in 2017, the Alaïa ship has sailed on as best as it could to keep the legendary name alive. Now, Pieter Mulier is signing on as captain. Announced today, February 5, Alaïa has officially named Mulier as its newest designer. Mulier cut his teeth as an intern for Raf
Up until a year ago, my exercise routine had never been consistent. As a plus-size babe, gyms terrified me (especially the cult-like London offerings) and at-home workouts were near-impossible as commuting meant leaving my flat at 7am and getting home at 6pm – at the very earliest (remember when we could socialise!). Cue, the pandemic.
We may only be a month into 2021 but we’ve already witnessed some historic moments for Black women – most prominently, Kamala Harris taking the helm as the first woman of colour to be sworn in as Vice President of the United States.

“I’m such a catfish,” says Lottie Winter, GLAMOUR Beauty Editor. “I filter and Facetune every photo I post on social media – so much so, that I worry people will be confused when they meet me (if they can even recognise me, of course). It’s a habit I slipped into it about five years ago

Hazel McQuade is an interesting set of contradictions, the rise of his new hit single – It Ain’t Me – the sprinkles on top of the amalgam sundae. The song in a nutshell espouses traditional masculine narratives, such as an appropriate rowdy and inconsequential view on otherwise emotionally and situationally complex issues and agendas. You
If binging on Netflix has achieved anything, it’s a love of true crime dramas. But what if we said you could get the same thrills (if not more) from reading about them instead? Often times, they’re so gripping to read that you can get lost in the story and for a moment forget that what

Over the last year we’ve seen more of our homes than anywhere else, so it’s not surprising that DIY projects have been all the range from the first lockdown onwards. When you’ve got that fresh lick of paint done and new shelf installed, it’ll be time to think about interior design. Personally, this is where

Whether stir-fries are your go-to and you reach for your trusty frying pan every night, or it only leaves the cupboard on the rare occasion you fancy a Sunday morning fry-up, no kitchen is complete without a good, durable non-stick frying pan. And with Pancake Day coming up on 16th February (finally – something to
Remember when Busted said they’d been to the year 3000? Well, they were lying. Because they forgot to mention the new Nike GO FlyEase trainers. The practically futuristic shoe is laceless, hands-free and features a bistable hinge that secures the shoe around your foot, without you needing to bend down and tie the laces. Because
If you want to know who’s in line to be the next fashion superstar, it helps to ask a current one. Christopher John Rogers, the CFDA’s 2020 American Emerging Designer of the Year, has his money on Edvin Thompson, whom Rogers calls “undoubtedly one of New York’s most promising stars.” Thompson landed the cover of
When it comes to giving our scalps the love they really deserve, one size doesn’t fit all. And, if we’re treating dandruff (which happens to the best of us), we need to take into consideration the condition of our scalp, as well as the texture of our hair to make sure we don’t soothe one
Coronavirus has changed life as we know it and one sector that’s been hit harder than most is the wedding industry.

Now that the longest January on record (it’s official) is finally over, many of us are looking ahead to what the rest of the year has in store. Unlike previous years – when we’d consider a family break around Easter, a big girls’ holiday in the summer, lots of dinners with the friends that we’ve

When it comes to clothes, familiarity doesn’t necessarily breed contempt. While winter has always been high season for warmth, comfort, and outfit repetition, the pandemic’s homebody mandate has rendered our attachment to our comfort clothes even fiercer. And though you couldn’t pry me out of my house shoes and softest seal-gray half-zip right now, I
The 14th of February 2020 was one of my last really great days before the first lockdown began. The details seem impossible now. Boarding a crowded train full of maskless strangers, sitting in a pub at lunchtime with my book and a beer, having my hair dyed orange on a whim, taking my time browsing
We can read the room. We know that splashing large wads of cash – or, more likely, inputting your card details into a payment box online – isn’t the number 1 hobby of lockdown 3.0. But it seems that even if we’ve calmed down on the spending front, we’re still searching for designer brands. And,
A few years ago, many of us wouldn’t have thought about recycling our empty beauty products. Our food tins and empty milk cartons? Sure. But our serums and face wipes? It probably wouldn’t have crossed our minds. Luckily, the thought of recycling our beauty empties has become second nature to many of us. Not only
If we open our diaries these days, we’re lucky if we don’t see tumbleweed blowing across the page. Cancelled catch-ups with mates, postponed vacays, and crossed-out coffees with colleagues means that we’re lacking structure. On the other hand, it frees up time to invest in the areas of our life we do still have some
