We all get into the habit of wearing the same clothes repeatedly. If it’s not the exact same garment, it’s usually something similar. While it’s great to have a signature look, it’s easy to become trapped inside your comfort zone and feeling like it’s impossible to step outside of it. Maybe you have a Pinterest board full of outfit inspiration that is a million miles from anything you wear day-to-day. Life is too short for us to not wear the clothing we want to. We’ve put together a few tips to show you how to start dressing outside of your comfort zone so that you can wear the clothing you want.
The first time you hear the phrase ‘Y2K’ it might stop you in your tracks. The name simply refers to the year 2000, focusing on the trends of the early 2000s up until 2010. Why are the trends back so soon? Usually, most fashion trends work on a twenty-year cycle as one generation grows up and sees the clothing style of the previous one. The Y2K trend has been made popular by Generation Z, who have come to love the trends they were too young to appreciate as children. There are Instagram accounts with hundreds of thousands of followers, dedicated to posting y2k fashion inspiration.
Hair accessories are quickly becoming a staple piece for Instagram’s ‘it’ girls. We’re not surprised. Hair accessories have slowly been making a name for themselves in recent years. It’s no longer just Blair Waldorf-inspired headbands hitting our Instagram feeds. Whether you’re channel your inner ‘90s supermodel or embracing logo-mania, there’s a hair accessory trend out there for everyone.
If you ever want to get ahead of the beauty trends, all you have to do is look at the runway. With collections being shown seasons in advance, it gives us our first taste of what makeup artists think are going to be the next ‘it’ trends. We’re turning to Paris, Milan, London, and New York for our beauty inspiration for autumn and winter 2021. With the holiday season right around the corner, it’s the perfect time to experiment with the latest beauty trends. At Paris Fashion Week, makeup artists and hair stylists took their inspiration from muted pastel shades to encapsulate the idea of escapism.

The claw clip is finally making a reappearance in fashion trends thanks to Gen Z and millennials. This hair accessory is effortlessly chic and an easy way to pull your hair back when you’re on the go. The messy your hair, the better. Forbes even went as far as to say that the claw clip is the hair accessory of 2021.
Fall is our favourite time of year to start looking at jewellery. It’s still warm enough to wear some of your summer jewellery, but you’ll also want to consider which jewellery to wear for events and special occasions over the up-coming holiday season. Fall is the perfect time to sit down and have an audit of your jewellery box.
When we think of jewellery, it’s usually chunky necklaces and Liz Taylor worthy jewels that jump to mind. With fashion taking a more laidback approach (hello, athleisure!), it’s no surprise that the same thing is happening within the jewellery industry. With everyone working from home and spending more time watching Netflix than sipping on cocktails, jewellery trends are changing to more wearable, dainty, everyday pieces. If there’s one jewellery staple that stands out as the post-pandemic must-have, it’s earrings.
Wearing socks and sandals together has long divided the fashion community. When slides made their comeback in 2016, the internet was divided between two camps. Those that were pro ‘socks and slides’, against those who thought it was a fashion sin. Fast forward a few years – and the combo has become one of the biggest trends for spring/summer 2021. Why is this? You just have to look at the rise of ‘dad’ fashion, fuelled by Birkenstocks and Chanel sandals. While we once thought of this look as something your dad would wear on a foreign holiday, everyone from Kylie Jenner to Rihanna and Justin Bieber are rocking the trend.
Sometimes you forget that you’re already wearing your best accessory. With summer just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to perfect the art of dressing up your hair. We have a few accessories that you should add to your closet to bring a little extra jazz to your hair: Headbands, Silk Scarf, Bow Clip, Scrunchies, Jewel Clips.
Gone are the days when collars were kept for fancy dresses. They’re now official in the mainstream of fashion and it’s time for you to jump on the bandwagon. The collars that we are seeing everywhere in fashion aren’t the dainty sort that you would put on your dog. Oh, no. The larger the collar, the better! We want collars that make a statement, that have ruffles and sequins. The sort of collars that you spot across a room and that make your outfit.
Spring is blooming and it’s the perfect time to treat yourself to a new handbag. After a harsh winter spent in lockdown, enduring socially distanced walks and being without our friends and family, it’s the least you deserve. Spring brings with it a myriad of bright shades that jump to the front of our closets. While we usually associate spring with pastels, this year’s spring handbag colours are focused on richer hues that make a bold statement where you go. These are the six handbag colours you should consider investing in for spring 2021.
