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.

The short, sharp shifts and kinky boots of the 1960s are given a fresh twist for the autumn/winter season

It's a reappearing trend on catwalks that pops up every few years and this season the sixties silhouette was reinvented for a new season.

For autumn/winter 2014 the best interpretations came from Gucci and Miu Miu where classic shift dresses, pea coats and knee high boots were suggested a new uniform for the season.

Make the look work for you by focusing on outerwear; collarless numbers and swing shapes are classic sixties shapes.

Long boots will give an instant retro vibe to any outfit, especially when paired with shift dresses and mini-skirts.
