Looking good can sometimes be a major challange, especially when you're in a rush and can't be bothered to put together a creative outfit. 

The lives of bloggers, seem to be constantly busy, so we want to know – how exactly do they look so good, all the time?!

Who What Wear spoke to six bloggers who dished their go-to style secrets. Now we can look just as good too!

Courtney Trop of Always Judging

Her go-to outfit: A fitted black t-shirt, black skinny jeans, basic black boots, and Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses.

“All black, always. As a blonde, it makes me want black because it makes my hair stand out. I usually throw some sort of trench or blazer over this sort of look in the fall. This is my go-to because it’s simple and easy, and something about all black always looks chic. It’s really about finding the perfect pair of jeans and tee to make the outfit.”

 

Christine Reehorst of Fash n Chips

Her go-to outfit: A big blazer or coat and a pair of classic, cropped black trousers.

“I like to go for this combination because I can wear whatever I like underneath as you won't be able to see much of it anyway, and the shoes don't seem to matter so much either. A big coat will instantly make any look more put together.”

 

Sarah Mikaela of Framboise Fashion

Her go-to outfit: A knit or blouse and boyfriend jeans.

“It’s super comfy and so versatile in terms of styling it further, like I did in this outfit with a silk shirt around my waist and pointed boots.”

 

Irina Lakicevic of A Portable Package

Her go-to outfit: A brilliantly cut white shirt, high-waisted fitted jeans, and pointy loafers.

“I am very concerned with always looking professional, but in the same manner not too polished. It has to feel personal rather than like a uniform.”

 

Andy Torres of Style Scrapbook

Her go-to outfit: Black jeans and a blazer.

“To be honest, I would wear black jeans and a blazer every day. I obviously have to spice it up but I think wearing black skinny jeans, a t-shirt/blouse, a pair of heels, and a blazer is such a classic statement look."

 

Zina Charkoplia of FashionVibe

Her go-to outfit: A cashmere sweater, an asymmetric skirt, pointed-toe heels, and my Fendi purse. 

“Feminine and fabulous! I feel like a real woman in this outfit. Not too sexy, not too conservative—just perfect!”

It's safe to say that most of us adore the sun. Although, living in Ireland, it’s not exactly like we see a lot of it.

Most of the year is spent complaining about the cold and eagerly anticipating summer’s arrival. This year that wait has seemed to go on for way, WAY too long.

But when the heat finally does come, there are a few side effects that our pasty Irish features take by SERIOUS surprise.

We’re talking sunburn, an outrageous amount of freckles, embarrassing sweating, and of course, frizzy hair.

For us frizzy hair sufferers, summer can be a challenging time, especially if you have gone on holidays to a humid country. So let’s take a look at some of the best tips to help keep our wispy hair at bay.

Choosing your shampoo and conditioner

Buy specialist de-frizzing shampoos and conditioners. Anti-frizz products are designed to help keep the natural moisture of your hair in, and to keep outside dampness out.

Dry your hair naturally

While this may be the last thing we frizzy haired folk want to hear, letting your hair dry naturally, or simply using a towel, will help keep the frizz away. If you must use a dryer, dry your hair downwards, keeping the cuticles flat. If possible, use an ionic hairdryer which will help break down the water molecules.

Avoid straighteners and too much styling

Heat damage is a big cause of frizzy hair. For a lot of us, that is a very unfortunate catch-22. Hairdryers and straighteners will dry out your hair, leaving the ends more likely to become brittle and frizzy. It is also recommended to avoid brushing your hair once it has dried. Try using your fingers instead to style your hair, to help avoid any unwanted extra frizz.

Get regular cuts

Split ends are one of the biggest culprits. It is recommended that we get our hair trimmed every six to ten weeks. Although, this will depend on the condition of your hair. It may be that if you use heated instruments on your hair, you will have to go for a trim more regularly.
