For Better Or Worse, The Tube Sock Renaissance Is Here

The 2020s have seen some interesting movements in fashion. Some are understandable (looking at you, pearlcore) and others… a little more unexpected (thinking of this very specific Shrek green).

“Create to-do list.” Tick! My life is pinched and sliced into series of lists, printed neatly in Muji notebooks with pretty pens and good intentions or punched unsleepingly into iPhone notes at 3am. I have been known to create a Google Sheet to-do list and conditionally format it to make […]

Indie Sleaze, Tumblr Girl & Twee: The Resurrection Of 2014 Internet Aesthetics Is Here

The moody days of early 2010s Tumblr reblogging are immortalised by memories of Arctic Monkeys’ album covers, scrappy handwritten poems, American Apparel tennis skirts, and the more-than-occasional soft porn gif. For many Gen Z and Millennial teens and young adults, Tumblr served as an online diary, escape, and scrapbook. The […]

Euphoria Is Back & It’s Still Peak Gen Z Yassification

Euphoria Is Back & It’s Still Peak Gen Z Yassification

Just what is it about wearing BDSM harnesses to biology lessons, rhinestone eyebrows in gym class and attending high production house parties in locations which, frankly, look like they belong in Drake’s property portfolio that evokes such strong memories of our school years?
