Things feel uncertain. Coronavirus is here and it is impacting everyone. We’re all supposed to stay home unless we’re doing something essential, which means, for the most part, we’re comforting ourselves by wearing tracksuits, pyjamas, and leggings. To distract from the current reality, though, it can also be nice to just dress-up in some fancier stuff or even in some clothes and accessories you’ve had in your closet and always wanted to try but you didn’t for one reason or another.
That’s what yours truly and a few other Cosmo colleagues did over the past week. It felt great, ten outta ten would recommend.
If you’re interested, here are all the trends we used to divert ourselves:
Glasses chains
I’ve had these tortoise glasses chains on a hook on my mirror for, like, two months. FYI, I’m now hooked on these and currently looking for more.
Head-to-toe neon
Lauren living her brightest life!
All the hats
This beret!! Also yaaas to that off-the-shoulder styling, Khadija!
Everyone's clicking on...
Sporty Spice
Mia living the vintage windbreaker dream out there.
Pattern clashing
And. A. Tea. Kettle. Handbag!!!!!!!
Bike shorts ’n’ blazers
Madeleine + this windowsill = the fashion shoot we all need in our lives.
Socks with heels
Gonna need a whole lot of fun sheer socks after this. Thanks, Sarah.
