There are a few fail-safe summer identifiers: muggy weather, the smell of freshly cut grass. But nothing beats the vibes you get from Wimbledon, the super-casj tennis event to which the globe’s biggest stars (sporting or otherwise) flock, that’s so deeply rooted in British heritage it literally stops us in our fast-lane tracks. We prioritise tennis matches over working late which, for us Brits, is basically sacrilege, turning us into Pimm’s-chugging revellers. And, of course, it’s the perfect excuse to invest in centre court-worthy wares (p20). Meanwhile, sale season is upon us – although my issues with the calamity induced by '10 per cent off ’ posters runs deep. As a child, I’d accompany my mum to the Next sale and spend hours trying on clothes four sizes too big…

“Meghan doesn’t want to be a royal puppet and Harry is totally on board” The good news is that we’re told another royal wedding is imminent. The bad news? You might want to hold off planning a street party just yet. According to our sources, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are informally telling friends to prepare for an autumn wedding, but are insisting it will be a very understated affair. It’s not a total surprise. After all, Harry and Megs have always kept their relationship extremely private. While a royal wedding is usually a nationwide celebration (read: a day off work), it’s fitting these two would be the ones to break the status quo. In a recent, shockingly candid interview, Harry bravely revealed he 'wanted out’ of the Royal Family.…

If you haven’t already hopped on the natural skincare bandwagon, the time is now. Formerly exclusive and expensive, naturally derived products have, over the years, filtered down to the high street – and they’re now better than ever.

Whether it’s cat’s-eye flicks, hair up-dos or a killer contour hack, whenever we look for beauty inspo, Pinterest is where we head. And now the people behind the pins have revealed what’s trending. It turns out that coral is the colour being pinned most when it comes to beauty. In fact, searches for coral lips have risen by 115 per cent and nail polish by 925 per cent since the beginning of the year. We can’t say that we’re really all that surprised to be honest. Coral often makes a comeback around summer, ’cause everyone knows that the punchy tone looks amazing with a tan. But this season, there are more shades than ever falling into the spectrum. From creamy pastels to neons, here are our favourite ways to wear…

Perfect your pose and brush up on your selfie skills – there are make-up lessons, modelling classes… Welcome to the school of social media. It’s 6pm and you’re scrolling through Instagram on your commute home. How do these bloggers post so many impressive snaps? It’s easy to shun Insta fame as being reserved for those who have a naturally creative flare for the perfect flat lay. 'I’m just not that patient a person,’ you might tell yourself. But unfortunately, you won’t have an excuse for much longer. Learning how to be a social media influencer is now a thing – and you can actually go to school to do it. At the Yiwu Industrial and Commercial College in China, students can take a course in everything from how to take…

“They’re hot and heavy and the chemistry is sizzling” Rihanna is giving us ultimate #lifegoals right now. From basically stealing the show in DJ Khaled’s new music video (hello, earring envy) to being caught snogging her new man while holidaying last week, Rihanna is LIVING. It’s about time; the 29-year-old singer has had a lot on her plate recently. She’s had her music scrutinised, her debut TV acting role in Bates Motel heavily critiqued and, as Look previously reported, was being dragged back into her ex Chris Brown’s life when his most recent girlfriend Karrueche Tran reportedly asked her to testify against him in her bid for a restraining order. All negativity that RiRi has been desperate to get away from. But did Rihanna crumble? Did she fall down? No…

So What Is It And Why Do We Get It? Well, it’s genetic (thanks, M&D) and occurs when too much keratin builds up in the skin’s hair follicles. Keratin (the protein that’s found in the outer layer of the skin) blocks the hair follicles, which causes the surface to thicken and pores to appear red and bumpy. It can appear all over your body, but problem areas tend to be thighs and arms. 5 Rules For Banishing KERATOSIS PILARIS 1 . Watch Your Shower Temperature Everyone loves a hot shower, but it can dry out skin and leave it dehydrated. This can then lead to inflammation, so try turning the temperature down from hot to tepid. 2 . Don’t Be Tempted To Pick Don’t even think about squeezing those bumps,…

“‘I own countless striped shirts, but it only takes one to nail city chic. Wear with jeans for brunch with the girls, or smarten up with a midi skirt and block heels for a look that’ll take you from desk to drinks – just add a clutch’” “‘Broderie to me is like a mouse to a cat: I have to have it. Handily, then, it’s probably the most versatile fabric I own. You can offset it with metallic add-ons after dark, or keep it casj with kicks and a cross-body, and you’ll be cool no matter how warm it gets’” “‘I used to think straw bags were a waste of money since I’d only use them on holiday, but anything goes this season.

The Earli-Moon Meaning: Everyone knows that planning a wedding can put pressure on a relationship. In fact, 18 per cent say it’s the most stressful life event ever. That’s why so many couples are having their honeymoon before the big day. It’s said to soothe tensions and give you something to look forward to – plus your tan will be on point for the wedding photos, which is great. How it’s used: ‘We’re taking an earli-moon and our parents are sorting out the rest of the wedding.’ The Commitment Ceremony Meaning: Millennial couples are shunning the official part of the wedding ceremony, with research suggesting we find it 'dull’. This way they can have an unofficial ceremony anywhere they please, without being beholden to the traditional (and legally binding)…

1 GET ENOUGH SLEEP (OBVS) The cast-iron rule of the early bird. Seven to nine hours is medically recommended but loads of us aren’t getting this due to our hectic lifestyles. The rest your body needs to function can only be had from proper sleep – really zonking out for a good night, not just a few hours to recharge. Don’t try to beat your body. You will not win. 2 YOU SNOOZE, YOU LOSE It’s time for the biggest break-up of your life: you and the snooze button are never, ever getting back together. According to sleep experts it actually makes you more drowsy as your ‘snooze nap’ doesn’t allow you to back into deep sleep. Jump out of bed and try the ‘inverted snooze’ technique, where you do…

Sales are overwhelming at the best of times. Do you brave it in store or play safe online? Whatever you do, you’re placing yourself in the midst of a rat race. A rat race to get to the checkout armed with everything you want, without a moment to think about whether what you’re buying is at all necessary. How handy would it be, then, if someone could do the thinking part for you? If all you had to do was grab it and go? Consider it done, ladies. Consider it done.

“Sienna is his type – they have great chemistry” One word: Brienna. When we first heard that Brad Pitt and Sienna Miller were, er, getting close at Glastonbury Festival last weekend, we were kind of excited. I mean, couple goals, right? But is all as it seems – and how is Angelina Jolie feeling? Fast-forward a week, and according to sources speaking exclusively to Look , Ange had her suspicions and the recent revelations haven’t come as a surprise. Since rumours began circulating about 53-year-old Brad and Sienna, 35, earlier this year (the pair were spotted cosying up in LA at an after-screening dinner of The Lost City Of Z in April), he and Ange are said to have agreed to keep their private lives under wraps. And even though…

The thought of winter in Britain usually makes us want to buy a one-way ticket to the other side of the world (especially when we’ve been treated to weather like this of late). The temperature, the dark mornings, the dry lips… There’s absolutely nothing to like about the cold season. But then came New Look and its AW17 offering. Ochre, cobalt and rust are the key shades to bookmark, while a hefty helping of patterns such as tapestry, checks and sequins makes for a drop that’ll work both now and then. The wear-whenever theme continues into add-ons, too, with statement earrings that’ll look just as good with summer dresses as they will festive ones. Clearly NL had this all planned, since the drop will land later this month. And we…

“I don’t think I could have sex on TV” Chatting to Caroline Flack is a lot like catching up with one of your mates – and since Love Island returned to our lives, it’s fair to say our obsession with the show – and Cazza – has spiralled. Finally, the 37-year-old TV presenter is back on form, looking cool AF, totally flawless and giving us a weekly round-up of all the rows, recouplings and muggings off within the villa. While Caroline seems happier than ever, it hasn’t been an easy year. After admittedly jumping between relationships since her twenties, she put herself on a 'relationship detox’ – which, during our chat, she says she needed. But while Cazza openly reveals to Look that she’s not seeing anyone in particular, she…

Happy… SUMMER SCENTS Sure, we love the warm, light evenings this time of year – but one of the best things about summer has got to be the scent-filled air. However, getting us all to agree on a fave is no mean feat. A recent survey found that, along with the smell of the seaside, the aroma of fish and chips and the fragrance of flowers scored highly. We don’t know about you, but guzzling chips on the beach while wearing a floral crown sounds pretty good to us… Happier… DOING IT FOR THE BRITS Following in Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield’s A-list footsteps, British actor Tom Holland will don the red and blue suit on 5 July in the latest Marvel movie offering, Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Sportswear just got chic… There’s something to be said for an activewear label Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wears. And Jourdan Dunn. Oh, and Lily Collins. We’ve had an eye on Varley since its 2014 launch but have fallen hard for the new SS17 range, a collection that’s both practical and Insta-worthy. From sassy snakeskin prints to must-have mesh panelling, this is sportswear to be seen in. Not convinced? Prices start at just £45, which for something A-list-approved is pretty good going, no?
