Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The hair/make-up

Rebecca Gonsalves: What's nicer than a messy bun and a natural make-up look on a hot summer's day?

Hugh Montgomery: So understated! And joyous! Unlike that thing in that TV show we do not speak of (hurrah!/Oh god/NO SPOILERZ)

The shoes

Rebecca: Ahh, a pair of PBPs (plain black pumps), the workhorse of any partygoer's wardrobe.

Hugh: These are fine. And benefit from being neither red nor suitable for a wedding (hurrah!/Oh god/NO SPOILERZ )

The jumpsuit

Rebecca: The all- in-one is definitely having a red-carpet moment, and this is a suitably jazzy affair – it looks like something from the "Dynasty" wardrobe archive.

Hugh: The jumpsuit is up there with the anchovy and the Volvo estate in the pantheon of failsafe items, right?

The accessories

Rebecca: Loving the baroque belt buckle, but did she cycle to the event and stash her hi-vis and helmet in the tote bag? How else to explain such a mismatch?

Hugh: You say "mismatch", I say "juxtaposition"
