I love this sentiment! It also touches on a 'trend' that I think might be coming out way- the lack of social media consumption. Does anyone else feel like how detached from the algorithm you are will be seen as a measure of coolness to teens of the future?
I can absolutely see a future where it is cool to be offline, or a least as you say detached from the algorithm. I think that is happening now. I have kids and I can imagine them looking at my phone addiction and rejecting it completely - I hope they do anyway. x
You look like you have such a beautiful eye Zoe. Trust yourself. I have a feeling you would already dress beautifully - but without the pressure, that style might grow into an effortless evolution - one that is deeply - personally - satisfying.
Yes, maybe there are some tips and advice everyone can pitch in but it’s often forgotten that fashion is supposed to be experimental. Your personality is part of what you choose and feel comfortable wearing
I couldn't agree more. I just read and loved your post. I do not wear modest fashion, but I think it is one of the most undervalued opportunities for elegance. Also love Nawal. x

I wonder this too often too! I feel pressured to look cool but at the same time am scared to look basic, when all of that shouldn’t matter.

There is no right or wrong way to dress. x
I just wrote a piece on how every 2 seconds a fashion influencer pops up and presents their “ideal wardrobe you should have!”: https://open.substack.com/pub/lifeofn?r=47xtgn&utm_medium=ios
