Month: April 2019

Wait, what year is it again? While I’m currently living in the reality that is 2019, taking one look at Gigi Hadid most recent outfit has me questioning whether I’ve time traveled back to the early aughts. You see, the model was spotted leaving a photo shoot in NYC earlier today wearing a jeans and Ugg boots outfit that pulls major inspiration from the decade’s style icons like Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Beyoncé, and so many others.

Hadid’s outfit was comprised of light wash jeans with heavy fraying and short black Ugg boots, which she styled with a sequined blazer and space-y shield sunglasses from her Vogue Eyewear collection. To be quite honest, there are so many 2000s-era trends in her outfit that I’m not even sure which style feels the most nostalgic. Since the fashion world has been keen on recycling trends from the late ’90s and early ’00s these days, Hadid’s Ugg boots outfit is probably just the first of many throwback looks on the horizon.

Next, the controversial sneaker trend she’s making look so cool.

If you want to know what mainstream fashion is going to look like in a month or two, just direct your eyes to Kim Kardashian West. What South Korea is to skincare and what Google is to tech, the Kardashians—Queen Kim, in particular—are to style and makeup. She creates, curates, and publicizes the trends of the imminent future. So two weeks ago, when we caught wind that KKW was collaborating with relatively under-the-radar German sunglasses designer Carolina Lemke to release a new collection of futuristic, head-turning shades (which dropped April 2 on CarolinaLemke.com), we stood at attention. The Berlin-born brand, which is so unknown in the United States that it wasn’t even available on our side of the pond until launching alongside KKW earlier this week, was an intriguing choice for beauty mogul KKW, who is not only promoting the brand but actually conceptualized and helped design each style from soup to nuts.

The April 2 release consists of seven bold shapes (price tags start at $90) in hues like neon orange, jet black, and sleek silver; expect six more later this spring. The complete collection will feature geometric shield styles (big enough to hide even the most considerable under-eye bags), as well as narrower ’90s frames and a tiny, oval variety (proving the controversial trend isn’t going anywhere in 2019). True to KKW form, her debut in the accessory space is nothing subtle.
