      <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

      Count yourself among the lucky few to score tickets to Doechii\u2019s Oct. 31 concert in Houston (or simply want to pay tribute to one of this year’s most exciting artists)? Consider emulating this simple-yet-exquisite ensemble from the Swamp Princess\u2019 “Anxiety” music video. This look, which pays homage to her earliest days on YouTube, comes together with a simple cream bralette (or cropped tank!) and a plaid midi skirt. An amateur microphone\u2014or perhaps, a round brush\u2014further adds to the playful vibe.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

      God forbid<\/em> a girl wants a night off from her mythical, immortal existence. This laid-back costume blends the nonchalant chic of model-off-duty looks with a few romantic, goth basics. Try pairing a sheer lace skirt with an on-the-nose tee (Nosferatu<\/em> merch, by chance?) and smart loafers. There\u2019s plenty of crossover between this and the ethereal trends that have dominated 2025, so we\u2019d be willing to bet your closet is packed with options.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

      If you have a recurring 6 a.m. appointment at a Pilates reformer, this one\u2019s for you. Simply don your favorite matching set (like a wrap top with foldover yoga pants) or perhaps a sleek black jumpsuit. Add a tiara on top\u2014a quick trip to Spirit Halloween or Urban Outfitters will do\u2014to playfully allude to the “princess” element.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

      Katseye has had a monumental year between tour prep, brand collabs galore, and releasing their sophomore EP, Beautiful Chaos<\/em>. There are a wide range of ways to emulate them as a group costume\u2014from 2000s nostalgia to double denim\u2014but their creative suiting from the “Gabriela” video is one of our favorites. Grab a few friends, pull together your funkiest tailored pieces, and live your pop star fantasy for the night (choreography optional).\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      We\u2019ve seen \u201890s-inspired athleisure return to fitness studios all over, and this 2022 look from Addison Rae serves as an excellent reference point. Copy her formula for a Sporty Spice costume: Pair a varsity tank with neon mini shorts, scrunch socks, and vintage sneakers. Ready to lean further into the nostalgia factor? Add fuzzy pom-poms to your hairstyle for a uniquely Addison-turned-Britney Spears twist.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

      You know what to do: The more dress code-pushing, the better. Capture the continued frenzy around TikTok creators’ office OOTDs with an over-the-top look that toes the line between business casual and a \u201890s rom-com protagonist. It\u2019s a tongue-in-cheek styling approach that rivals some of Sabrina Carpenter\u2019s best lyrics.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      If there\u2019s one thing we can count on each year, it\u2019s Megan Thee Stallion\u2019s annual Halloween costume. This one\u2019s as simple (and iconic) as it gets, as the Hot Girl herself pairs a pumpkin head with any casual autumnal outfit. Not ready to carve your own? Search the back of your closet (or your nearest Halloween aisle) for an old-school pumpkin bucket that\u2019s far less messy.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

      Retired Tumblr teens rejoiced when Lorde returned to the music scene this year\u2014and most notably, when she cruised into Washington Square Park for a popup concert. Ready to replicate that look? The long-lost New Zealand pop star is making it easy for us: Simply pair a distressed gray tee with wide-leg cargo pants, then add a strip of duct tape to one of your boots. Bonus points if you arrive to the party with a rainbow water bottle and Citi bike.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

      Get your full money’s worth out of that Loewe \u201cI Told Ya\u201d shirt from Challengers<\/em>. Recreating Zendaya\u2019s iconic look during the film\u2019s press run, this Halloween costume is equal parts low-maintenance and<\/em> recognizable. Simply pair the tee with a trench coat and track pants, finishing it all off with a bouncy blowout.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      \n

      @sza \/ Instagram<\/p>\n

      <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

      Classic yet sweet, the cowgirl costume isn\u2019t going anywhere. Try raiding your summer festival attire\u2014or perhaps a friend’s\u2014for a Western-inspired outfit, similar to SZA\u2019s look here. It\u2019s casual enough for a last-minute kickback (and won\u2019t have you explaining a complicated reference all night), yet still lets you join in on the fun.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      If you spent 2025 rewatching Sex and the City<\/em> (and determining which character embodies your personality), this simple Carrie Bradshaw-inspired outfit formula is for you. Required pieces: A teeny handbag, sequined skirt, and an unstoppable attitude. We\u2019re taking modern-day inspiration from this outfit snap from creator Toni Bravo\u2014while she wasn\u2019t pointing toward the NYC columnist in her post, we can\u2019t help but catch the vibe.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

      I\u2019m not sure about you, but one viral Lily-Rose Depp fan encounter-gone-awry from January is seared into my brain. While the bizarre Instagram story wasn\u2019t the kindest to Depp\u2019s styling, I just can\u2019t shake the poster\u2019s oddly specific evaluation of her outfit. To recreate this chronically online look, simply choose a trench coat (\u201cbuttoned to the top\u201d<\/em>) and pair it with simple ballerina slippers. It\u2019s a look that anyone with excessive screen time might appreciate.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
