EDITOR PICKS: OUR 2023 HIGHLIGHTS
By Symone Keisha, 25 December 2023
2023 has given us countless trends, iconic red-carpet moments and must-have prods (see: leather moto jackets), but it's all coming to an end *cries* 🥲 It's not all bad tho, it's actually the perf time for our editors to go through some of the things they really rated this year (there's been *SO* many). Keep it locked for a round-up of the best-of-the-best 🏆

BEST-DRESSED CELEB
'Top spot just had to go to Bad Bunny! I mean, who else channels normcore-meets-cowboy better than him? Plus, he's one of the few guys who ~actually~ makes the effort at the Met Gala. Instant winner!' – Alice, Junior Editor

BEST SNEAKERS
adidas Originals Samba OG trainers in white and purple, £90
The Samba is my most-worn trainer of 2023, and I’m pretty sure they’re yours, too 👀 From '70s terrace style to the runway (looking @ u, Wales Bonner 🪩), there’s no denying their comeback.' – Emma, Sub Editor

BEST GROOMING BUY
Lab Series All-In-One Face Treatment 100ml, £46
'I'm a busy man, and that's why I love this all-in-one face treatment by Lab Series. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for a good pamper sesh, but when time's tight, you can't beat a prod that just does it all.' – Steven, Editor

BEST BEAUTY BUY
Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Serum 50ml, £89
'PSA! This serum is magic in a bottle. Guaranteed to make you glow, I always apply it before a long flight, so as soon as I touch down, I'm ready to party 😜' – Gala, Brand Content Editor

FAVOURITE TREND
Pull&Bear overcoat with wool mix in camel exclusive at ASOS, £59.99
'There have been a few trends this year, from older bro-core to punk realness, but I'm a sucker for a head-to-toe tonal 'fit, so it has to be neutrals. It's so timeless and anyone can pull it off.' – Jazmin, Editor

BEST UNISEX FRAGRANCE
Malin + Goetz Leather Perfume Oil 9ml, £29
'Roll-on fragrances are the LOML and this scent is a big mood. Don't be fooled by the leather notes, it has a softer edge with green violet and lotus flower, too. Tbh, it must be good because my gf keeps stealing it!' – James, Junior Writer

ACCESSORY OF THE YEAR
ASOS DESIGN half moon cross body bag, £26
'OK, Jacob Elordi has got me. My fave accessory has got to be the man bag. There's something so cool and carefree about throwing on a little crossbody with a masc 'fit. Best of both worlds, is that you? 👀' – Ayis, Junior Writer

FAVOURITE SONG
'My song of the year is Blood And Butter from Caroline Polachek's album, Desire, I Want To Turn Into You. It's a pop song with bagpipes that feels like being in love – new sub-genre unlocked 🔓' – Hannah, Sub Editor
