And if you’ve been wondering which label is set to be the next Aupen or Telfar, it looks like we may have our answer in Freja.

Capsule wardrobes are not anything new, but they have recently taken over social media feeds, TikTok in particular. Style gurus and creators have made video after video about how creating a capsule wardrobe is the secret to getting dressed in the morning. Each piece is interchangeable and versatile, leaving you with multiple outfit options with only a small number of pieces. Though the capsule wardrobe concept is centered around simplicity, starting one from scratch can feel overwhelming and complicated especially when transitioning from season to season. Ahead we chat with professional stylist and content creator, Audree Lopez, about what a…
Are you in the market for a new pair of sunglasses? As long as the sun is shining, they’re always appropriate. In fact, few accessories rival the understated cool factor that a great pair of sunnies affords. Even the simplest silhouette can perk up a haphazard look that we’re sometimes prone to. What styles are going to be big this season? Aviator shapes aren't going anywhere, stylist Danyuyl Brown says, while exaggerated, ‘60s- and ‘70s-inspired silhouettes are back on fashion people’s radar. (Think back to Gloria Steinem's signature look.) Almost anything from Celine is also safe, given the label’s simple…
A Striped Sweater A Smocked Dress Neutral Knits A Woven Bag The coastal grandmother aesthetic is the latest TikTok fashion trend to make its way across our FYP (that’s the “For You” page, for the uninitiated). The nostalgia-inducing aesthetic is often compared to something straight out of a Nancy Meyers movie—think: Something’s Gotta Give or It’s Complicated. It combines minimalism, preppiness, and a hint of nautical flair (e.g., lots of neutrals and creams, linen fabrics, plus pops of baby blues and pinks or stripes). The result? Effortlessly glam and, most importantly, super-comfy ‘fits that look polished and put together enough…
At this point, it’s not hyperbole to say TikTok has changed the trend cycle for good. Traditionally, fashion (and beauty to a lesser extent) moves on a 20-year trend cycle, but thanks to the app’s quick pace, users are already revisiting looks from just a decade ago. That means mid-2000s trends like side bangs, messy eyeshadow, and of course, ballet flats are already making their comeback. The latest on the list? Bold, colorful tights. Bold tights have been making runway appearances since Versace’s Spring 2022 collection last season—in particular, bright purple neon and lime green. Vibrant hot pink tights found…
Techcessories—the bridge between stylized outfit add-ons and everyday technology—is hardly a new term. According to popular slang website Urban Dictionary, the word dates back to at least 2010. And recently, there's a new high-tech status symbol celebrities and influencers are incorporating into their looks, Apple's AirPods Max headphones. Like all of the items produced by Apple over the past 20 years—from the humble iPod nano to today's iPhone 13 Pro Max—the headphones turn an everyday necessity into a must-have. Though they debuted in late 2020, this year has proven to be the year of the supersized headphone (thanks partly to…
A good baseball cap is often overlooked based on its uncomplicated name and nature. And yet, its history is longstanding and evolutionary: Baseball caps came onto the scene in the 1800s (when the sport was invented), and although the original model has transformed since then, it's now a mainstay in fashion and pop culture. Today, we consider the baseball cap an off-duty essential. Why? It’s an easy solution when you can’t be bothered to do your hair, and it just looks effortlessly cool when paired with anything—from a knitted sweater to a blazer or even a leather jacket. “Pulled down…
We all know the mood-boosting effects of vitamin D on the body, but prolonged sun exposure can lead to premature skin aging and skin cancer. Along with regular sunscreen application, a sun hat helps safeguard your skin—and your hair, too!—from UV rays. “Sun hats will protect your face, ears, and neck from the sun’s rays but also protect your eyes from the sun’s glare and your hair from becoming sun-damaged,” says board-certified dermatologist Dr. Rosemarie Ingleton. Sun hats are also stylish accessories for warm-weather outfits. With insight and guidance from experts in mind, we searched high and low to find the best sun hats.…
Purely Pastels High Neck, High Society Blair and the Bandage Dress Even while staying Switzerland-neutral on the quality of Gossip Girl’s reboot, it’s safe to say there will never be an Upper East Sider with as much style as the original Blair Waldorf. Perhaps it was the era of peplum and headbands that paved the way for some unforgettable looks, or maybe some things are best summarized in that famous moment during season two when Serena says, “Not everyone wants to be Blair Waldorf.” Without missing a beat, Blair responds, “Not everyone can be.” I phoned “Part-time Gossip Girl historian…
It’s time to buckle up, baby. Belts have evolved way beyond their original function of merely holding up a pair of slacks—they’re fashion statements in their own right with the power to entirely transform your look. Whether it’s a wrap design to cinch the waistline of a maxi dress or a skinny belt to add a pop of color, there are a few benefits to having more than one belt in your wardrobe. And when it comes to leather belts, specifically, there are tons of options on the market. So how do you know which ones are actually worth it?…
