In 2020 we missed out on being able to wear some of the trendiest items as we were at home most of the year. While these five trends blew up on Instagram, we didn’t get to step out of our houses in them. But don’t worry, these micro-trends will be super popular in 2021. Did your favorites make the cut?

Tummy Ties

This runway trend is super flattering and it’s only expected to get bigger in 2021. Expect to see this tiny detail on everything from tops to skirts and pants.

Onesies

This look is perfect for lounging around the house or working out in. To elevate it for leaving the house, throw on a blazer and some chunky boots.

Checkerboard Print

This playful print makes any outfit more exciting without being too over-the-top. Of course, Vans are the easiest way to pull of this trend.

Second-Skin Tops

Second-skin tops are super versatile and they make for great layering pieces or they make a statement when worn on their own. This elevated take on a basic deserves a spot in your closet.

Square-Toe Shoes

This ’90s trend doesn’t look like the most comfortable, but it sure is stylish. Oh, what we’re willing to do in the name of fashion.

With just a few weeks left in 2020, it’s time to look back at the top trends this year. Fashion in 2020 emphasized comfort above all else, reflecting our lives during the pandemic. So what trends ruled 2020? These were the ones that flooded our closets this year.

The Nap Dress

The Nap Dress, a term that’s since been trademarked by Hill House Home—became super popular this year, which makes sense as we’ve been spending most of our time at home. It’s not sleepwear or occasion wear, but it’s perfect for naps and lounging around the house.

Sweatsuits

Oversized sweatsuits may be baggy and shapeless, but when styled right they can look effortless, especially when you wear matching separates.

Silky Sets

Wearing sleepwear during the day, especially when it’s silk, became our go-to this year. Silky sets are as comfy as they are luxurious, making for great WFH outfits.

Bedding as Clothing

Chances are you saw the pillow dress taking over social media, and while this look is a bit silly, brands are using bedding materials and patchwork for outerwear and accessories.

Ribbed Knit Sets

For minimal effort and a chic look, ribbed knit sets are super easy to style and they look put-together.

Wearing glasses used to be something people dreaded, but they evolved into a statement accessory over time. Eyewear has gone a long way from not being considered fashionable to being worn even by people who have no problems with sight just because it’s trendy. The days of wearing empty frames are behind us, but here are some of the latest eyewear trends you should know about.

Clear Eyeglasses

Clear frames are currently among the most popular frames among people who wear glasses. They look effortlessly cool and bring a dose of fun and quirkiness into any outfit, no matter how serious it is. We especially love them combined with professional looks on both men and women.

Thick Rims

Thick geometric rims are the best way to draw some attention to your eyes. They come in different shapes and colors but they all have one thing in common—they are not discreet at all.

Nude Frames

If you want to choose among many acrylic frames available, consider nude frames that look warm and natural on your face. These frames aren’t thin and they’re definitely visible, but they are so beautiful you’d want everyone to notice them immediately anyway.

Beyonce is no trend-follower, she is a trend-setter. Here are six times she took 2020 catwalk trends and transformed them into something even more awesome.

Metallic Lipstick

Metallics have been trending since the summer/fall fashion shows and metallic makeup has been particularly hard this summer. Beyonce took the concept and opted for a bold metallic lip. And it’s awesome.

Oversized Hats

When oversized hats started trending, Beyonce picked out a hat that is so obnoxiously oversized, we can’t even see her face.

Denim on Denim

Denim on denim seems to come around every other year with the return of 90s fashion. Given that Beyonce was a leading style icon in the 90s, Beyonce has had no trouble embracing the trend and giving it a revamp of her own.

Puffed Sleeves

The subtle puffed sleeve started trending again earlier this year but for Beyonce, “subtle” does not do justice to the stylish trend.

The Curated Ear

The curated ear has been one of the top jewelry trends on Instagram this year. Beyonce took the trend and used it to promote her new clothing line, Ivy Park. It’s just another example of how Beyonce doesn’t follow trends, she makes trends work for her.

Natural Curls

2020 has been all about embracing natural hair but Beyonce has been championing her beautiful afro curls for a while now. This is the hair of a strong, unapologetic black woman that doesn’t follow trends. She starts movements.

Having a neat backyard or any other open space has become a luxury in today’s overpopulated world, but it’s also a necessity given the fact we spend so little time outdoors. Here are the top 3 landscape design ideas that are trending right now, in case you have an outdoor space that needs some extra attention.

Simple and Functional

Similarly to interior design, our exteriors are becoming simpler and more functional with every year. More and more people are looking for ideas that will give them a sleek result and a functional space that can be used throughout all the seasons.

Color Blue

Blue is Pantene’s Color of the Year 2020, so it’s not surprising that it’s trending in many different industries. Think of ways to include more shades of blue in landscape design for a modern and calming effect.

Personalization

Turn your landscape into whatever you want it to be! You can grow your own veggies, plant native greenery, or create a space where kids can play – it’s totally up to you.

“More reading” is something many of us put on our New Year’s resolution lists, but it’s never easy to find time for it.

Even when you sit down to finally get some reading done, how focused on it are you really? Most people can’t help but think about other stuff, too, and we totally get that. This is especially prominent if you squeeze reading in together with other activities like commuting or running on a treadmill while listening to an audiobook.

If you can’t take time to just read and do nothing else at the same time, ask yourself if reading really is a priority for you. If it is, get serious about it.

Always remember it’s not about how many books you read, but what you get from them. Give yourself plenty of time alone with the book and don’t feel guilty about it. You don’t have to read every latest bestseller, you only have to read things you actually want to read.

“Slow reading” is the trend we need to remind us of the values of reading that made us fall in love with books in the first place.

Do you have a proven hairstyle that you never change or do you rather experiment with whatever’s trendy during the given season? As always, it’s probably best to stick to the middle and follow the trends for guidelines but always make sure that the hairstyle you’ve chosen fits you. Here are three styles that will be hit in 2020 to inspire you for a change.

Casual Waves

Waves that look like you’ve just gotten out of bed are back and you can finally relax and let your hair decide on its shape as you’re sleeping. The effortless chic effect just can’t be achieved with tools and products; hair has to be lived-in.

Huge Scrunchies

We already know that scrunchies are back, but in 2020, they are getting bigger! Textured fabric scrunchie is all you need for a glam hairstyle that doesn’t require a lot of time and effort.

Big Volume

Elevating your hair from the roots will be one of the biggest hits in the upcoming year. The ‘60s vibe is strong and hairspray will be your best friend.

Traveling is always changing and evolving. There are new trends around travel every year, and some of them stay with us for a long time while others go away almost immediately. What can we expect from travel in 2020? Here are three of the trends that will be everywhere.

Micro Hotels

The concept of micro hotels aims travelers who need a break from technology and connectivity in their daily lives. These hotels are perfect for solo travelers and all the people who want to calm and reset their minds and bodies. They are typically located somewhere in nature, away from cities and crowds.

Eco-Friendly Travels

Tourists are becoming increasingly aware of the impact their travels have on our planets. In the future, starting in 2020, we’ll see more people being conscious of this and trying to balance the negative effect of their travels in any way they can.

Surrounded by Nature

Hotels that can offer a piece of green space around their property will be especially popular. Whether that’s a flower garden, a farm, or some other piece of nature, that’s exactly what people are craving.
