For many, the New Year is about making Resolutions with a capital R (no pressure from us if you’re approaching 2022 with a more free-wheeling attitude, though!). There are countless fashion goals you could set yourself, from creating mindful spending habits to getting round to that long-overdue wardrobe clearout. Our suggestion is geared towards self-discovery: finding your personal style. Accelerated trend cycles have made it all too easy for us to overconsume, buying into every revival only for it to pass within 3–5 working days. Pinpointing your personal style is a crucial first step in becoming a more sustainable shopper, encouraging you to invest in quality items you’ll love for years to come instead of impulse purchasing from every New...
Ah the humble bucket hat. It's been one of those pieces that has gone in and out of fashion for almost 60 years, and has become a far cry from it's original use, which was to protect farmers and fisherman from the elements. It may conjur up images of Kevin & Perry for some, or old Florida-based men playing shuffleboard in the sun for others, but one thing's for sure - it's back, and it doesn't look like it's going anywhere any time soon.

Layering can take on many forms and can be as basic or as complicated as you want it to be. Whether you’re a straight forwards jumper over a shirt kinda person, or you’re itching to...
If there's one item that's both universally flattering and completely timeless, it's a bias cut satin skirt. Offering endless styling options, and an easy to wear silhouette, the satin bias has been a firm favourite with designers, stylists and fashion bloggers for years. So, naturally, we had to make one (or five) for ourselves. So, What is a Bias Skirt? For the uninitiated, a satin bias skirt is a skirt created by cutting the pattern diagonally across the fabric, rather than straight along the weave of it.

It's a Sin is the latest TV hit to have us clamouring for a vintage inspired wardrobe, and luckily for us (and you) vintage fashion is what we do best. Channel 4's latest big hit gives a heartbreakingly accurate look at what life in 1980's London during the AIDS/HIV crisis was really like.
