Enter: barrel-leg trousers. With their striking shape and sculptural silhouette, these trousers have burst onto the scene this season, quickly earning a place in the wardrobes of fashion’s most discerning dressers.

Unlike traditional straight-leg or wide-leg styles, barrel-leg trousers feature a distinctive bowed design—flaring out towards the knees before tapering in at the ankles—creating a voluminous yet structured look that feels undeniably modern.

Building on the momentum of the horseshoe jeans trend, barrel-leg trousers offer a more refined, polished alternative that slots into both workwear and off-duty wardrobes. And the best part? They’re already widely available across both designer and high-street brands. While classic black and charcoal grey styles seem to dominate new-in sections, I’ve also spotted bolder takes, like an electric blue pair from high-street favourite COS.

While most styles hit above the ankle—and pair perfectly with low-cut trainers or ballet flats, some styles extend well beyond, styling beautifully with tall heels or sleek boots. A welcome alternative to the simple straight-leg cuts we've all been wearing for decades, read on to discover and shop the barrel leg trouser trend below.

We consistently turn to Parisians and New Yorkers for style inspiration with their cool and elevated looks (like those featured above). And while Nordstrom doesn't technically exist in France yet, we bet that if a Parisian and New Yorker shopped the sale together, they'd gravitate toward similar chic pieces that fit within their covetable city-life aesthetics.

Keep scrolling to shop forward basics, modern shoe styles, next-level tailoring, and more from the Nordstrom Winter Sale.

It was polished dressing and sophisticated style at its height, which is perhaps why it's so surprising to see it adopted by the downtown fashion set. Maybe that is what makes it feel so right. It is a 180-degree turn away from the edgier fashion we've come to associate with anyone living in lower Manhattan, which makes it unexpected yet exciting and fresh. Ahead, see more on the nostalgic style that is defining how the fashion set is dressing.

Pillbox Hats

Pillbox hats are practically an essential for the fashion set at this point, whether in white sculptural felt or leopard print. The accessory was a staple of Audrey Hepburn in the 1963 film Charade but is equally likely to pop up on the 2025 street style set.

Car Coats

The classic trench is getting an elegant and sophisticated twist with the car coats popping up everywhere. Style insiders are pairing the knee-length, single-breasted outerwear with slip skirts and sleek pumps.

Leather Gloves

A key outfit finisher for the final month of winter? Leather gloves. They are often styled with a tailored skirt suit or car coat, as frequently seen on Grace Kelly in the 1950s and 1960s.

A-Line Silhouettes

Flared A-line silhouettes have been gaining popularity in recent seasons and are going full steam ahead for this coming year. Whether in coat, skirt, or dress form, the fluted shape feels like a throwback to the style of previous decades.

Top-Handle Bags

Pocketbooks, doctor bags, carryalls, and more finished with top handles are the bags of choice at the moment. Many of the polished bags have a vintage-meets-modern feel.

While doing my annual new-year closet clean-out, I was thinking about how I wanted to show up in 2025, and the word I kept returning to was "sophisticated." Maybe it's the air of elegance infused into the fashion world lately or just part of getting older, but I've been feeling drawn to polished pieces. Not only do sophisticated items skew more timeless (and, therefore, make for wiser investments), but wearing something refined also changes the way I carry myself throughout the day.

In order to show up as my best self this year, I'm leaning into sophisticated fashion. Since I've recently made some room in my closet, I scoured the internet for elevated pieces to consider adding to my wardrobe. With satin fabrics, hourglass shapes, and structured silhouettes in mind, I saved 34 utterly chic items that are the definition of sophistication. Below are the standout pieces, from elevated suiting to classic watches.

We're officially at that point in winter where we're no longer shopping for the current season (or weather) but instead have our eyes—and wallets—set on all things spring. With new designer collections dropping and the next wave of trends solidifying, I may be dressing for temperatures in the thirties, but if I’m buying anything new, you can bet it’s for the months ahead.

As I do at the start of every fashion season, I recently did a deep dive into what I predict will be the luxury It items of S/S 25. Spoiler alert: There are many. But today, we're highlighting 30 pieces I know are headed for sellout status—fast. From bags and shoes to jackets and skirts, the new-collection pieces you'll want to know about first are all below. To see every item and brand that made the cut, just keep scrolling.

If you look at the runways, this trend has been brewing quietly for a minute now. Proenza Schouler showed a pair of glove-like mesh leather flats on its S/S 24 runway paired with airy layered organza dresses and sleek leather separates. Then it was Carven that included satin glove boots in the F/W 24 collection, which were styled with corporate-esque tailored skirt suits for an intriguing contrast. More recently, Chanel launched its patent moccasins that immediately became some of the most in-demand designer shoes upon their talked-about launch. Ahead, we're charting the glove shoe trend, from its runway debuts over the past several seasons to how fashion people are wearing them in the wild and, of course, the pairs you can shop now (if you're so inclined).

On the runway

We first noticed the rise of this glove-like style in Proenza Schouler's spring 2024 collection in the form of satin and mesh leather flats with a more foot-hugging silhouette than your average flats.

Carven was the next collection to clue us in to the trend. Designer Louise Trotter included satin glove boots in the F/W 24 collection, which were styled with corporate-esque tailored skirt suits for an intriguing contrast.

At Chanel, the flats featured a calfskin-leather exterior, a rounded toe, and a tuxedo-friendly aesthetic that, all together, made for flats that were definitively glove-like in our minds.

Susie Wright, the mastermind behind So Susie, worked as a Nordstrom buyer for years. So, yes, it's safe to say that she's a Nordstrom shopping expert. On that note, the Nordstrom Winter Sale is officially here, and it's epic. We already shared a list of standout items but thought we'd dive further into the sale offering with must-have picks from Wright.

Below, you'll uncover the key categories Wright thinks you won't regret shopping, complete with her intel. Go on to shop on-sale knits, outerwear, denim, shoes, beauty picks, and so much more from Nordstrom.

Coats

"If you’re looking for one of the best investments for your closet, hands down it’s a coat. And finding one on sale is even better! I recommend classic colors like camel, gray, or black—you’ll have these for years. Depending on your climate, a wool or cashmere coat is always a good idea. Consider brands like Fleurette, Reiss, or Sam Edelman." — Wright

Shoes (Sneakers, Sandals, Boots)

"We all love shoes! Whether you’re looking for sandals, cool sneakers, or even boots, this is a key category that always sells out. Nordstrom has the best shoe sales, so this category is definitely one you want to stock up on." — Wright

Beauty Staples

"Everyone loves a good beauty find, and I noticed many sale picks that are worth a try. One of my favorite things to stock up on is beauty sets—they’re a great value, and you always get an extra item or two!"— Wright

Denim

"This might be the first category to check since there is lots of denim on sale. I believe every stylish outfit begins with a great pair of jeans! Be sure to scroll through this section. You’ll find all the styles that are trending in 2025—everything from wide-leg to flares to classic washes like gray, black, and faded denim." — Wright

Handbags

"There are many beautiful handbags on sale this season. Several of them are ones you can wear all year long, like a few by Tory Burch. Also, this is the time to grab a designer handbag on sale! Wear it mostly every day, and you'll get your value out of it."— Wright

My daily outfits are generally made up of a mix of elevated basics that I mix and match together, and often style with one very of-the-moment seasonal piece. When it comes to what I'll be shopping for this year, I've looked at the spring/summer 2025 runways and made a list of some of the more wearable styles that I can incorporate into my everyday outfits and very clearly feel on-trend.

Below, I'm sharing some of the specific pieces I'm planning on buying right now to make my basic outfits look very 2025. From sporty jackets to romantic sheer skirts and cool retro sneakers, take a look below at the pieces worth investing in for the year ahead.

Sporty Jackets

Windbreakers, anoraks, soft shells, and zip-ups are set to dominate in 2025, thanks to a whole host of designers from Miu Miu to Gucci showcasing jackets with a sporty sensibility on the runways. Opt for luxe fits and fabrics and style with everything from feminine dresses to chic tailoring for a cool, contrasting look.

Shop:

Sheer Fabrics

Romantic, soft, sheer, and flowing chiffon and tulle fabrics dominated the runways via skirts, blouses, dresses, and pants in ethereal shades. I'll be giving my outfits a soft filter in 2025 by pairing a sheer skirt with an oversize sweater, or an ethereal blouse with relaxed tailored trousers. These are looks that feel equally sensual and sophisticated.

Shop:

Slim-Fitting Trousers

Skinny pants are stealing the spotlight in 2025. Designers brought forth some chic iterations on narrow tailoring—from slouchy straight-leg silhouettes to cigarette styles as spotted at Miu Miu, Loewe, Sportmax, and Tod's. Expect to see fashion-forward slim-fitting silhouettes on a feed near you.

Shop:

Retro Sneakers

From the runways to the streets, retro-cool silhouettes are everywhere right now and will continue their dominance as we move further into 2025. In the spring 2025 collections, designers such as Miu Miu, Loewe, and Proenza Schouler were all about soft and sophisticated sporty, styles, and on the streets, we've been seeing the fashion set embrace '70s-inspired retro throwback styles like the Adidas Tokyos and Taekwondos, classic Reeboks, and Puma Speedcats.

Shop:

Powder Pink

This year, I'll be embracing soft, feminine, and muted shades of pink which dominated on the runways in pretty fabrications such as satin and organza. Backed by major designers from Alaïa to Khaite, Chanel to Victoria Beckham, expect to see the fashion set add a romantic hue to their outfits come spring.

Shop:

For the seasoned shopper Dutch brand Róhe is nothing new, but for the newly intitated allow me to introduce you to every fashion editor's worst kept secret. In true Scandi form Róhe focuses on considered craftsmanship, quality fabrics, and a season-less palette that can be worn all year round, in short—garments that will work exceptionally hard in your wardrobe. Fans of Khaite, Toteme, House of Dagmar, By Malene Birger and Filippa K will love the brand (and it's slightly better price point), and I highly recommend scrolling through their new-in section for investment pieces that will look as good in a decade as they do now.

So, if you're just aiming to refresh your look for the year ahead and don't know where to start, keep scrolling to see the best pieces from Róhe for channelling that "rich and unbothered" vibe that comes so easily to Scandi women. It's about time someone stepped up to challenge The Row's crown.

Influencers Wearing Róhe:

Style Notes: Brittany's Róhe cape coat and long skirt combo are a masterclass in playing with proportions.

Style Notes: Just when you thought you'd seen every way to wear a blazer, Róhe have managed to switch it up again.

Style Notes: Sylvie proves that you can't go wrong with a monochrome colour palette, and a black blazer is one of the most versatile pieces in any wardrobe.

Style Notes: I'm officially convinced—it's time to add head-to-toe cream and white to my spring outfit moodboard.

Thankfully there's no need to get FROW tickets to find out which trends will surface in 2025, as stylish Europeans are filling our feeds with plenty of outfit inspiration from their home countries that I've been busily taking notes on. After hours of thorough research, I've rounded up the seven shoe styles that cropped up time again on the international style set, and I have no doubt these will be everywhere over the next year or so. So, for a mix of current trends, classics and those yet to be adopted by the mainstream, keep scrolling for the European shoe trends that are worth saving for later. There's a lot to look forward to in 2025.

The Shoe Trends Everyone from London to Copenhagen is Wearing in 2025

1. The Trend: Boat Shoes

The Location: Belgium

Style Notes: Love them or hate them, this throwback take on the loafer has been quietly bubbling up as the "ugly" shoe of 2025, and as anyone who wears Crocs, dad sneakers or rubber shoes will know, it's often the ugly shoes that get the most attention (but feel the most comfortable). It makes sense that the boat shoe would be so popular, we're always on the look out for a new flat shoe trend that feels dressier than trainers, and this sturdy-soled wonder may just be the next best thing.

Shop Boat Shoes:

2. The Trend: The Contemporary Court Shoe

The Location: Copenhagen

Style Notes: You can always expect to get tons of style inspiration from Scandi women, but the one thing I didn't see coming was a heel. Given just how reliant cities like Copenhagen are on cycling for transport, flat shoes tend to reign supreme, but these season has introduced the court shoe 2.0, a sculptural spin on the classic with a softer silhouette and often a statement heel that doesn't need to be sky high to get the attention that it deserves. Good news for demi-heel devotees.

Shop New Court Shoes:

3. The Trend: Mules

The Location: Paris

Style Notes: The French have a penchant for reworking classics to make them feel new again, and mules are back on the agenda for a chilly spring with some sunshine promise. There's no need for bells and whistles when a pared-back and minimalist mule is all an outfit needs to look polished, and according to Parisians, a pointy toe is best worn with midi skirts or slip dresses and a longline coat for an easy outfit with a little je ne sais quoi.

Shop Mules:

4. The Trend: Patent Slingbacks

The Location: Spain

Style Notes: Who could have predicted that the return of the slingback would cause such a stir that near on three years later we would still be discussing them at length? Well, we could actually. Not only does this eternally chic shoe look great with just about anything, but the popular kitten heel height is easy enough for all-day wear too. Spanish dressers have picked up on the power of a patent slingback in particular given just how great they look with tights during the cooler months, and there's something in this classy, "office siren" pairing that we expect to see much more of in A/W '25.

Shop Slingbacks:

5. The Trend: Embellished Ballerina Pumps

The Location: Amsterdam

Style Notes: Mesh flats may have been the look du jour in 2024, but for 2025, I've noticed a uptake in the amount of embellished ballet pumps making their way onto the market. Dressy by day, and perfect for comfortably chic evenings, keep an eye out for studs, sparkle, and chunky adornments over the coming months, this elevated shoe is sticking around for another season and I couldn't be happier.

Shop Embellished Flats:

6. The Trend: Barely-There Sandals

The Location: Helsinki

Style Notes: A genius styling trick straight from Finland, take your summer sandal and make them winter-appropriate by adding a statement pair of tights. Chic, no? Anything that get more longevity out of the barely-there sandal has to be a good thing, not only do these heels never date, but their minimalist nature means you can wear them with just about anything (Milla's look being a case in point). Is anyone else immediately heading to their wardrobe to try and recreate the same outfit?

Shop Sandals:

7. The Trend: Suede Trainers

The Location: London

Style Notes: Londoners know their way around a good trainer trend, and the genius of this style in particular is that is combines cool-girl kicks with undoubtedly the biggest trend to come out of winter 2024: luxe suede. I challenge you to find a trainer that looks more expensive than these, particularly in chocolate brown, and when your favourite pair of white leather sneakers just isn't cutting it, this is the alternative style that women in the capital are wearing in droves right now, particularly with a matching tote.

In fact, it turns out this newly coined “soft blur” term is pretty much the approach that French women have always taken with their makeup. So, what actually is the soft blur makeup look? To find out all the details, I spoke to makeup artist and founder of BAER, Scarlett Burton, and she gave me the low down on everything you should know…

What Is Soft Blur Makeup?

“Soft blur makeup is a flawlessly blended, soft-focus matte look,” Burton told me. “It enhances your skin, eyes and lips by making them appear smoother and more defined in colour—without any harsh lines or edge.”

What Products Are Required for Soft Blur Makeup?

"The key to this look is to use cream products that have matte finishes rather than dewy,” said Scarlett, “My favourite product for the soft blur trend is Danessa Myricks Blurring Balm, it's a matte cream which turns to a powder finish on the skin and really blurs pores, imperfections and gives an airbrushed finish to complexion.”

How To Achieve the Soft Blur Makeup Look

“For the skin, I would use matte cream foundations and really buff these into the skin with a larger fluffy complexion brush,” said Burton. “Then, I’d shape with a cream bronzer or contour product, applied with the same fluffy brush, rather than from the applicator." I'm also a big fan of a cream blusher to help achieve the soft blur look.

"For the eyes, I would lean to matte cream or liquid eyeshadows or even blushers if you fancy that pinky/bronze tone, and really buff these out with a small fluffy brush. Lastly, for the lips, I would use a matte lip tint or lipstick and use a very small fluffy brush to apply this. That way you will achieve a diffused colour immediately without having to blend.”

So, now you’re armed with the expert advice, you’re probably wondering how you can recreate the soft blur makeup trend yourself. To help, I’ve pulled together my favourite influencer looks to serve as inspiration, as well as my favourite products for creating the look. Think of this as your new soft blur beauty routine…

For anyone like me who struggles with winter blues, take reading this as a sign. I've found my cure and it doesn't require a SAD lamp or a countdown to spring. It's simply a trip to the mountains, where winter weather isn't hated, but rather relished and embraced. Sounds cheesy, doesn't it? But trust me, nothing makes you more glad to welcome January than the promise of a ski trip.

Picture this: you wake up (if you’re a really passionate skier, then to the sound of your alarm for the first lift), get yourself a hot breakfast, maybe a couple of coffees and a croissant or two. You then hit the slopes, where you spend a few hours improving your snow plough or parallel turns. Maybe you’ll stop for a spot of lunch. Hot chocolate? Oh go on! Maybe a beer? How about two. Then you do an extra couple of runs for good measure, there’s nothing like a bit of Dutch courage to get you down Le Face. After skiing down the mountain, or some cases, sliding down the mountain, you hit the spa—you have a swim, then make your way for the steam room, sauna and cold plunge pool, maybe you get a massage. You meander back to your room before heading our for a bit of fondue and après ski, and end it with a fantastic night’s sleep in your gigantic bed. Tell me—can life get any better than this?

If you're wondering where the hottest spots of The Alps are, trust me when I say Val d'Isère (or 'Val' as its affectionately known), is up there. And if you're wondering where to stay (spoiler: it's at the Experimental Chalet), where to eat and of course, what to wear on and off the slopes, you've come to the right place.

To enjoy a ski holiday, is to enjoy a stay at one of Experimental group's chalets. Its original chalet outpost is in Verbier, Switzerland, but its latest venture is where I stayed, in Val d'Isère. With interiors by the group's lead interior designer Dorothée Meilichzon, it's an eclectic mix of mid-century-style furniture, fabrics and a colour palette that echo the seventies (and reminded me so much of London's The Standard) and finishes that allude to its alpine location—think branch-like door handles, side tables made from logs and the pièce de résistance, the rounded stonework fireplace in the lobby. There are two restaurants, a bar and a large spa (all of which I get to below), and the rooms are beautifully-designed with Savoyard touches, well-equipped and have picturesque views from every side.

For me, the best thing about Experimental Chalet Val d'Isère, is that whilst it has just over 100 rooms, and has all the offerings of a larger hotel, it possesses the feel of a boutique lodge or chalet. There's so much attention to detail and service that it feels luxury yet unpretentious, and it's clear they've thought about the few hardships and grievances that can come with a ski trip. Take their basement boot and ski room, for example, where not only do you store your equipment, but you can hire it from here too—everything from skis, snowboards, boots, poles, helmets and the like, and you can purchase all the necessary accessories, which saves you a trip to the local ski shop.

Whilst you’d be forgiven for thinking fondue had its moment back home decades ago, going to the Alps without having raclette is said to be a sin. Experimental Val d'Isère's restaurant L'Aiglon is dedicated to fondue, tartiflette and raclette, which is a must. Its other restaurant, L'Aiglon D'or, is a stylish brasserie option that offers both French classics and international favourites, so whether you’re in need of carb-loading after a day of skiing with a burger and fries, or you’re celebrating with champagne and oysters, this menu will match your vibe. But it was perhaps the hotel’s bar, the Experimental Cocktail Club which is the one I have fondest memories of. With its swanky seventies-inspired interiors, top notch playlist (with live DJs playing on the weekends) and a bar full of annoyingly good-looking, charismatic and well-dressed staff, the vibe is ideal for pre-dinner drinks or post-dinner parties, depending on how dedicated you are to the first lift the next morning.

Other options in Val d'Isere include:

L'Apin Val d'Isère:
Sensational, rustic restaurant offering signature French dishes with a modern twist.

Atelier d’Edmond:
If you're splurging, then a reservation at this two MICHELIN star French restaurant is worth trying.

La Folie Douce:
Perhaps the most famous mountain-side club group in the Alps, and the one you've likely seen on TikTok, La Folie Douce is host to many DJs and performers.

Arctic Juice & Cafe:
Cute cafe that offers probably the best barista coffee in town, as well as pastries, and as the name suggests, juices.

Naturally, we can't talk about a vacation to the mountains in winter without talking about skiing (or snowboarding). What makes Val d'Isère so popular is the range of slopes and the conditions. A fellow journalist and expert skier said to me, "If there's snow in France, there's snow in Val." On this trip I was lucky enough to have perfect conditions: ample snow with blue skies and sun every day. If you're a beginner, Les Trois Vallées is a perfect region, with plenty nursery slopes as well as blue and green runs for once you've perfected your snow plough. And if you're advanced like me (read: not at all like me), then you can conquer La Face de Bellevarde, the infamous black that hosted the World Cup and Winter Olympics.

For those hitting Les Alps less interested in winter sports and really looking for R&R, then Spa by Experimental is definitely going to be your main hang out spot. With an indoor pool, sauna, steam room and a Nordic ice bath, you'll hardly get bored. What's more is its menu of Dr. Barbara Sturm facials and massages, some of which have been created specially for those who have exhausted themselves on the slopes.

Because ski gear is designed to protect you from the elements, it’s always been notoriously expensive. Nowadays however, there are brilliant rental platforms and affordable brands offering options that make dressing for the slopes much more accessible. If you want to go designer, my suggestion is to rent. There are a few places to do this, but IMHO, Blanqo is the best because they specialise in ski wear, and have the best selection of brands. Not only can you get chic winter staple brands such as Goldbergh, Perfect Moment and Poivre Blanc it also stocks a range of cool-girl favourites such as Shoreditch Ski Club and Snowroller.

When it comes to being off the slopes, personally, I like to stay on theme. If you’re more of a classic dresser, seek inspiration from pre-millennium Sloane Ranger style, where yuppie types in the '80s and '90s would adopt accessories like sleek tortoiseshell sunglasses and headbands that should be worn with cashmere après jumpers and neat puffer jackets that cinch in the waist. If like me you lean towards a more streetwear vibe, go for loose-fitted silhouettes like cargo trousers and oversized pull-over jackets, that are most commonly adopted by snowboarders, and style them with sportier sunglasses and chunky, rounded snow boots.

What Is a '60s Bob?

"The '60s bob is a short, jaw-length bob that is chunky through the outline giving plenty of movement and bounce through the ends," says Cos Sakkas, three-times British Hairdresser of the Year and Toni & Guy global creative director.

Former first lady Jackie Kennedy with a '60s bob haircut.

'60s bobs have plenty of volume at the roots and a luxurious swing or bounce through the lengths. "It’s all in the detail—the '60s bob has that little bit of extra polish and sophistication," says Sakkas, who says this is a versatile hairstyle you can wear in various partings. "The '60s bob is effortless and cool. It’s a nod to the past but totally modern and it looks great if left to dry naturally or softer when blowdried," he says.

Who Suits a '60s Bob?

"The great thing about the bob is there is a shape to suit every face shape," says Sakkas. "The oval face shape is the luckiest as all bobs suit this face shape, especially the '60s bob," he says.

How To Style a '60s Bob

"As with any styling, try to keep touching it to a minimum to avoid it frizzing," says Sakkas. "Apply Label.M Anti-Frizz Smoothing Balm (£26) through the mid-lengths and ends and leave to dry naturally, or blow-dry with a big round brush (or a hot brush) for a more polished finish," he says.

"Alternatively, set it in hot rollers for that ultimate '60s bouncy finish," says Sakkas. "Once it’s set, keep your fingers away; if you must touch it, use the end of a comb to prevent it frizzing and flopping out of shape."

I love this blunt bob hairstyle with flicked ends on Anok yai.

Hailey Bieber's bob is a hybrid between a layered '90s bob and a rounded '60s bob, which makes it feel so modern.

I WON’T SHUT UP ABOUT: Realm Boots

Style Notes: With expensive taste in footwear but also impossibly flat, wide feet, I’m always searching for elegant, comfortable heels that won’t break the bank. So, I’ll admit, I was targeted on Instagram for Realm Shoes and dubious about ordering—boy, am I glad I took the plunge. “I couldn’t find a footwear brand with slow fashion values that truly resonated with me, so I decided to create my own,” founder Leah Gibson tells me. “Working as a buyer at a fast fashion retailer, I loved the industry but felt disconnected from the constant cycle of trend-chasing.” Classic silhouettes and small-scale manufacturing mean Realm’s shoes are made to last, adhering to Gibson’s principle that “quality and longevity are non-negotiable”. I invested in the Knee Boots (£220)—the kind of style that I’d been searching for over a decade. My fellow thick-calf girls will be pleased that these can fit thanks to a mini elasticated side panel. “My customers are at the centre of everything I do,” says Gibson. “I love connecting with them directly in DMs.” So here’s my official request for these boots to come in brown suede, grey, red…

2. UNDER THE RADAR

Style Notes: I’ve watched the Italian luxury brand Tod’s go from being known for their instantly recognisable Gommino loafers to becoming one of Milan’s chicest names for, well, everything. Under the relatively new creative directorship of former Bottega Veneta head designer of ready-to-wear, Matteo Tamburini I’ve witnessed first-hand from the runways of MFW a niche developing for smart, hard-working, sophisticated clothes and accessories that aren’t quiet luxury but aren’t loud either—just right for a grown-up wardrobe. While perusing Net-a-Porter’s vast handbag offering I came across the T Timeless bag. How did I not know about this perfect style already? Well, it’s very easy to get distracted by the big fashion houses’ seasonal It bag launches. This alt stood out to me as a solid purchase that lives up to its name—I can’t imagine this understated tote ever being out of fashion. While it is still an investment at just over £1.5k for a medium silhouette, I think it’s worth acknowledging that many luxury brands now demand £4k upwards as standard… and I’m yet to be convinced those would be better quality.

3. ASK HANNAH ANYTHING (about style)

“3-piece suit for women… in or not?”

Style Notes: A great question from one of our Instagram followers and it is very well-timed. The 3-piece suit has been a strong fixture over the past year and spring/summer 2025’s runways show no sign of tailoring slowing down. There is a strong shift towards traditional workwear attire being reconfigured for the modern day. Although last year’s trending waistcoat is still a piece that stands up, Saint Laurent leads the charge for a new take on suiting, combining oversized tailoring with mix-and-match shirts, ties, overcoats and more. So it’s really about finding a formula that you like!

Don't get me wrong, I am all for using my manicure as a form of self expression. I love scrolling through nail art ideas and dabbling in playful nail polish shades come spring. It should go without saying that my ultimate piece of advice is to go for whatever makes you happy—there is no wrong move that you can make. But when it comes to down to the nitty gritty (i.e. the trends I'm actually willing to recommend), I'm keen to make sure they're not fleeting. I can't be the only one who can't keep up with what's hot and what's not on the nail front, after all.

And because 2025 is the year of timelessness and classics when it comes to our manicures, I'm approaching spring with a different outlook this year—minimal manis that spark joy. And when I spoke with two of my favourite manicurists around, they confirmed that it's not just me feeling this way—everyone wants to ditch dated nail colours and busy designs for Spring 2025. So, without further ado, these are the 9 spring nail trends everyone can get on board with this year.

1. Satin Nails

This is, hands down, my favourite nail trend for spring—and I can't wait for my next manicure so that I can give it a go. "This spring, it's all about super-chic, glossy nails with a hint of sparkle," says celebrity manicurist, Iram Shelton. "The fresh, clean look of short nails combined with a shimmery finish is not only trendy but also practical and elegant. It's a nail moment everyone can achieve both at a salon and home," she adds.

And the thing that I love most about this look is the way it can be adapted. For classicists like me, the satin finish can be achieved with a very slightly iridescent polish. However, if you want your manicure to pack more of a punch, you can go for something notably shimmering.

2. 3D Nails

There's no doubt that 3D nail art is gearing up for total domination in Spring 2025. If we're looking at a microtrend level, this year is going to see a big moment for 3D jelly nails. "It leans heavily into K-beauty nail trends that all have this juicy, glossy finish. You can take it up a notch by adding a French tip or futuristic 3D elements like bubbles, droplets or a sculpted design using a clear 3D gel. A generous layer or two of topcoat is essential for that glass-like effect," says manicurist, Lois Samantha.

But, if like me you're planning to steer clear of microtrends for the upcoming season, that's not to say you can't get in on the 3D nail art action. Pairing a simple, minimalist polish with a statement 3-dimensional element, like the above pearls, is unbelievably chic. My top piece of advice? Keep any 3D designs firmly in the hands of professionals—I can't tell you how many times I've tried to make these looks work for myself at home and failed miserably.

3. Coffee Tones

For those who prefer dark nail colours, you'll be thrilled to hear that this year's Pantone Colour of the Year (Mocha Mousse for those who aren't acquainted) isn't going anywhere for spring—yes, brown nails are here to stay. "Brown will be the colour of choice this spring," says Lois Samantha. "Mocha Mousse plays a part in this, but we're also seeing a resurgence of boho fashion, led by the likes of Isabel Marant and Chloé. We'll be seeing various iterations of brown, from light latte and golden caramel to deep mahogany and everything in between."

And Shelton agrees, as she also dubs brown to be the season's biggest nail shade. "Choose a light, cashmere-soft brown for a subtle look or a deeper espresso shade for a more dramatic effect. Apply a single coat for a chic, polished finish and apply a topcoat to seal it in," says Shelton.

4. Crème Fraîche

Backstage at Chanel's Spring/Summer 2025 show, minimalist manicures took centre stage with Chanel Le Vernis Ballerina. And this is truly all the proof I needed that milky, creamy hues would continue to be a favourite for spring. However, while pink, strawberry milk nails have been having their moment in recent months, going into spring we're set to see a slight shift in tone. Think white- and yellow-toned nudes that ooze spring-time cool.

5. Minimalist French

Obviously the French manicure isn't going anywhere for spring—it's a hit season after season. While summer calls out for a colourful French manicure, this spring we're set to see more transitional shades used on skinny tips. This look lends itself to the overarching 2025 spring nail trend for 'less is more'.

6. Micro Art

Micro nail art has been bubbling away as a somewhat dominant trend over the past couple of years but has often been overshadowed by louder microtrends. Now, spring 2025 is micro art's time to shine.

"[Expect] anything you could possibly imagine, from food to animals, in teeny-tiny nail art form. It's a great way of adding interest without committing to a huge design," says Lois Samantha. If you're keen to get creative yourself, make sure you are equipped with the right tools. "A super-fine brush will be your best friend for this. If you struggle using your non-dominant hand, try painting your art onto a silicone surface. Once dry you can peel it off to create a sticker," she adds. My preference as a non-artist? Pre-packaged nail stickers.

7. Mirror Nails

I'll be honest, often when I see that metallic nails are trending I don't get that excited. Something about traditional nail polishes in silver and gold tends to just fall a bit flat. But this spring it's not about just any old metallic polish—it's about high-shine, mirror-like finishes. This look is best executed with professional products at a salon, but if you want to get in on the action at home, opt for a super-shine polish and finish up with a glossy gel-like top coat.

8. Garden Mani

Okay, I know that this one is somewhat similar to the micro nail art trend mentioned earlier, but it's just too good not to mention. Yes, florals for spring can be groundbreaking—and this dainty design proves it. Flowery nail art comes around every year, but for 2025 it's about making those flowers less cutesy and more classical botanical. Pair your design with a sheer, neutral base for a truly timeless look.

9. Short Shapes

We have been talking about almond shapes a lot in recent seasons, but for spring this year we're set to take a softer, more natural-looking approach to our manicures. In recent months, everyone I have been speaking to about nails has expressed a desire for shorter, oval-shaped manicures. "We're seeing a move to more practical and natural nail shapes," says Lois Samantha. "Unlike almond or coffin shaped nails, oval can be achieved on short nails yet still creates that elongating look. Position your nail file at a 45-degree angle, and file in a gentle sweeping motion. You can then focus on the sides, but remember not to narrow them too much as this can cause stress cracks."

"Perfect" is a pretty hard level to achieve in any category, but if you're searching for a pair of shoes that are comfortable, versatile, and even kind of cute, then allow me to recommend the humble clog.

Originating in 13th century Norway, this simple footwear was worn by fisherman, farmers, and tradespeople of all types. Today, the design is still renown for its comfort and universal appeal, with styles ranging from the most basic to inexplicably avant garde.

Recently model Iris Law was spotted leaving a fitting in Paris wearing a pair of block heel clogs that toe the line between utilitarian and stylish. Styled with a low-rise midi skirt and collared top, and styled with a matching brown leather jacket and bag, the outfit evoked '90s It-girl vibes, while simultaneously feeling fresh for 2025.

Keep scrolling to get a peek at Law's full look, then continue on to shop the wear-everywhere clogs we're ready to step into ASAP. Whether you go for a more traditional workwear style or prefer something with more pizzaz, one thing is for certain: this centuries-old shoe design will never truly go out of style.

Leighton Meester stood out to me in an ethereal Dior dress complete with glistening gold flecks. She walked the red carpet with her husband Adam Brody, who's nominated for his work on the hit Netflix series Nobody Wants This. Brody looked dapper, of course, but let's get back to Meester. Her red hair and baby bangs reminded me of Helly from Severance. (Don't get me started on this week's wild new episode.) Scroll down to see all the new photos.

Taking place in L.A. and hosted for the third time by award-winning comedian Chelsea Handler, the 2025 Critics Choice Awards ceremony is one you won't want to miss.

Oh, a new Vans collection just dropped, you say? No need to twist my arm. I'll be adding the sneakers to my cart faster than you can say "Visa or Mastercard?" As a San Diego native, I've been wearing the SoCal-based brand since elementary school, and I don't plan on becoming disloyal anytime soon. My latest obsession is the just-released Vans Premium Old Skool Music Collection. The iconic Old Skool silhouette has been given a makeover for 2025, and the results are too good to ignore.

To get the scoop on the new launch, I interviewed Diandre Fuentes, the head of design for Vans Lifestyle Footwear. Fuentes started working at Vans 11 years ago as a footwear design intern. "Now, I lead a team of amazing designers that create new color, material, graphic, and trend collections for our classic Vans icons (think Old Skool, Authentic, Classic Slip-On). We also create our new, up-and-coming models," Fuentes told me. "It's very rigorous work, and I have an extremely talented team that creates hundreds of new designs for a wide array of consumers every season." Continue reading our chat and shop the shoes below.

How did the idea for the Premium Old Skool Music Collection come about?

When we were brainstorming, the team and I were exploring ways we could celebrate the legacy and cultural significance of the Old Skool in a way that celebrates heritage but would feel fresh and intriguing to new consumers. In recent years, there has been a boom of fascinating shifts in fashion, particularly street style, in which rules are being rewritten, and young people are creating their own style playbooks. This sentiment feels very related to the spirit of skateboarding, which embodies a sense of rawness, experimentation, expression, and subversion. While we don't all skateboard, we can all relate to music and tap into that same spirit through different genres of music and the style subcultures they create.

There is a beautiful authenticity and organic quality to the way musical iconoclasts were adopting Vans into their style expressions, from the '80s to the 2000s to now. When we dug into the archives, we saw Vans on the feet of Henry Rollins, countless fans and artists at Warped Tour, and members of Odd Future. We wanted to celebrate the way these artists, their fans, and these musical movements helped solidify Vans and the Old Skool as the icon we know today.

How are these new versions different from the original Old Skool?

We wanted to remain true to the iconic look of the Old Skool, [but] as a brand, we know how important it is to modernize the shoe to address the comfort and fit needs of our consumers. That's why this collection was designed using our Premium build, which includes a new insole technology called Sola Foam ADC, which amplifies underfoot comfort. The overall fit and construction of the shoe were improved for a more seamless and comfortable wear. Additionally, the Sola Foam insoles are bio-based, and our iconic vulcanized-rubber outsoles are made of regenerative rubber for a more sustainable take on our classic build. The naked eye won't be able to catch all the tech we packed into the Premium Old Skool, but your feet will instantly feel the difference.

In your expert opinion, what sneaker trends will be popular in 2025, and why?

Simplification: Slimmer, simpler, adaptable silhouettes. We have been coming off the chunky-shoe trend for a few years now, and I think consumers will continue to feel the ambient financial anxiety imposed by our current cultural climate. So they may be turning to sleeker, perhaps more elegant, more versatile footwear that they can get more style mileage from.

Greige: Austere times call for austere and versatile colors. Stone colors like gray, taupe, and beige can be beautiful and not boring. Think rich suedes and buttery leathers in the greige range.

Hybrids: I think we are going to see more interesting hybrids of silhouettes paired together in unexpected, weird, and cool ways—but with some technology and performance elements built in. I think comfort and utility are going to become even more nonnegotiable.

Trinkets: I'm throwing this fun one in because everything above feels so serious. I want more customization. More "shoelry." More gems. More charms. More plushies. More, more, more!

Beauty is one of my favorite categories to gift on Valentine's Day because beauty products feel like little luxuries people don't often treat themselves to. There are only so many lip oils I can justify purchasing for myself, but receiving them as a gift is no problem in my book. Credo Beauty is always my first stop in this category because it carries brands I trust like Westman Atelier, RMS Beauty, and Nécessaire. Not to mention, I admire its commitment to lifting up brands that promote sustainable and humane practices.

I know I'm not alone when I say there are about 20 people in my life who would melt over this daschund T-shirt—but that's just the beginning. Tory Burch is a brand on every fashion person's radar, and it's time I get a few of these new arrivals into the hands of my loved ones. You can't go wrong with any of these pieces, from the wishbone pendant to the trending snake print east-west shoulder bag.

Jewelry is historically a classic Valentine's Day gift, but I like the twist John Hardy is putting on it. If you want a unique piece that will impress someone who has seen it all, go for the Love Knot Ring or Icon Bracelet. If you're loved one prefers more subdued styles, the Surf Ring and Pave Hoop Earrings are a smart investment. Classic doesn't mean boring, and the following six pieces are proof.

Kids and adults alike are fawning over Jellycat, and I understand why. These sweet characters spark so much joy and make perfect Valentine's Day gifts. The bag charms make adorable accessories for my girlfriends, and the caterpillar will surely become my 1-year-old goddaughter's new best friend. The one thing I have learned with Jellycat is to act fast—these covetable items don't stay in stock for long.

Last but not least, we have the luxury brand that's always on my radar, but lately, its new arrivals are capturing my attention like never before. Help your loved one prepare for spring with these pretty pastels from Jimmy Choo. Or give them their new everyday essential: a neutral-colored tote. I'd like to gift myself the Freja kitten heels for obvious reasons, but you choose whatever suits your loved ones.

Motherhood is an epic mix of highs and lows, which is only exacerbated by the fact that caring for a child leaves little to no time for self-care, much less self-thought. Sofia Richie Grainge knows this to be true. She welcomed her first child, Eloise, last year.

Richie Grainge is open and honest about her experience with motherhood, including one of the biggest beauty concerns that pregnant and postpartum women face—hair thinning. Caused by natural hormone fluctuations, hair thinning most commonly occurs around three months postpartum. Although, it can happen earlier or later. For Richie Grainge, it was the former.

I caught up with Richie Grainge to talk about her experience with motherhood, how she sneaks in small moments of "me" time on busy days, and why she chose to "be proactive" about hair shedding. Keep scrolling to learn all of this and more.

Can you tell me how you were introduced to Nutrafol and why you started taking it?

When I found out I was pregnant, I actually experienced a bit of hair shedding. It stopped pretty immediately, actually, and I didn't experience it the rest of my pregnancy, so I assumed and heard from other friends who have experienced postpartum shedding that it was a possibility for me. As a precaution and to be proactive, I ordered the Nutrafol postpartum supplements just to get ahead.

Have you seen a difference from taking it? Would you say it’s part of your daily wellness routine now?

I was lucky enough that I didn't actually experience postpartum hair shedding, so what I have noticed with taking the supplements is an overall shine with my hair. I realized my hair was much thicker than it was before, and it's overall health I noticed improved greatly.

I was kind of waiting for the moment that I was going to [experience postpartum hair shedding] because everyone’s always like, “It’s going to happen to you. Wait until six months postpartum.” I’m eight months postpartum, and honestly, my hair has never been healthier. I take my supplements in the morning with breakfast, and it's just kind of become a part of my morning routine.

Do you use any other wellness-related or self-care-related hair and scalp techniques? Anything you've been doing to enhance the results you're seeing from Nutrafol?

I always love doing natural masks like coconut oil masks. I found that they've been extremely helpful with my hair. Even as a kid I used to make "hair potions" with my friends. I feel like it's something I've always done and have gotten great results from.

I would love to know about other products you’ve been loving lately. Are you a person who has a go-to shampoo and conditioner, or are you testing new formulas all the time?

It's more about a feel for me. My hairdressers recommend tons of different products to me, and I try so many, so I kind of have a rotating door of products constantly happening, but I would say I stick to clean and healthy hair products. I try to keep it clean and not too heavy with ingredients, for my hair type at least.

You've made the slicked-back bun your signature. Is that still your go-to style?

Now that I'm a mom and my mornings are not so easy breezy, I don't have that 30 minutes or 25 minutes to perfect my hair. Even if I did, my hair would be messed up within 10 minutes. I'm into loose ponytails now.

If I'm going out and I need to throw myself together really quickly, I'll do a center part, low bun. I use the same routine—that slick look with an oil or cream, but I find it's a lot quicker than the high one that I usually do.

How have you been incorporating wellness and self-care into your routine since becoming a mom? I know time must be limited.

I got to a point where I was like, Oh, I have not thought about myself in a really long time, and I'm putting all of my energy and thoughts into taking care of my child. When are you ever going to turn around and take care of yourself? I had that moment probably three months postpartum. My immune system was really low, and I just wasn't really taking care of myself properly. I found little ways during Eloise's naps to check in with myself mentally. I started meditating. For me, it really wasn't product-driven.

It was just finding moments for myself, meditating, eating healthy. In the beginning, I was breastfeeding, so I was finding foods that were helping me produce milk, but yeah, just finding little moments to feel like I was taking care of myself was extremely important.

Absolutely. When you have a baby, you're sneaking away for showers. It's not so much in-depth self-care.

100%.

Do you have any tips or tricks for either new or expectant moms? What are some things you've learned?

I learned that reaching out to other mothers is going to make you feel so much more comfortable because 99% of the issues or the things that I thought were just happening to me happen to every other mom. At the beginning of my postpartum journey, I was cocooned and didn't really talk about it with anyone. It wasn't until I really reached out to girlfriends who were moms or made mom friends that I got that comfort and was like, Okay, this is normal. This happens to everyone. I think just being open and communicating with your community.

From the newborn to the toddler stage, everything changes so fast. They hit milestones so quickly. What would you say is your favorite part about motherhood right now?

Eloise is 8 months old, so she's just starting to crawl. That's the really exciting thing that's happening over here. She's crawling, she's eating, but like you said, every month brings something new, and they develop so quickly at these beginning stages, so I'm just holding on to every moment as much as I can. I look back on photos of her three months ago and she looks like a completely different baby. As much as I love it, I just want to curl up and cry because I know I'll never get those moments back, but she's amazing. I have the easiest baby on the face of the planet. She's the greatest little gal, so I'm very lucky.

Designers have been hinting at the bubble hem’s comeback for seasons, subtly incorporating rounded hemlines into their collections. But now it’s official: The trend has fully infiltrated both the runways and the street style scene. Brands like Khaite and Simone Rocha have reimagined the silhouette with modern, structured takes, proving that the bubble hem can be sleek, sculptural, and effortlessly cool. Meanwhile, contemporary labels like Miaou and Stone Cold Fox are making it wearable for the everyday fashion crowd with fresh interpretations that feel very polished.

The key to styling bubble hems in 2025? Balance. The exaggerated volume speaks for itself, so keep the rest of your look streamlined. Think a dramatic bubble mini with knee-high boots or a midi version paired with sleek pointed-toe heels and minimal accessories. And if the idea of full-volume drama feels like too much, dip a toe into the trend with a subtler ballooned effect—designers are offering everything from soft bubble hems to structured, cocoon-like shapes.

Whether you love it or loathe it, there’s no denying that the bubble-hem renaissance is in full swing. And if history has taught us anything, it’s that when a nostalgic trend returns, it sticks around for a while. So if you haven’t already embraced the trend, it might be time.
