23 Affordable Things I’m Buying to Look Like Me But Better in 2021

I’m calling it: 2021 is our year. In the New Year, I'm all about embracing feel-good items in my wardrobe and life. As I recently moved down south to warmer weather in Miami—and an inevitably different style than New York—I made a lot of lifestyle changes that ultimately made me feel my best, and look my best. Whether it’s making new, mood-boosting style choices, like bright pops of color, or indulging in things that enhance my overall look, like nourishing hair masks and oils, 2021 is all about investing in things that make me feel good.

From giving my go-to high-waisted trousers an update to testing new makeup trends, for me, this year will focus on subtle updates that truly make me feel more like myself—especially after a year that left us questioning, well, everything. Just how am I setting out to enhance my look? Fortunately, I’ve narrowed it down to an art. First, I stick to buying fashion silhouettes that I already like, but with an updated design element. For instance, I know I gravitate toward cut-out dresses, and typically ones with keyhole cut-outs or dynamic necklines; thus, I am opting for a dress with tasteful cut-outs down the side of the dress this year. And when buying new items in the year, I ask myself the following: how will this enhance my life? What purpose does it serve? Trust me, it works. Keep scrolling to find out the 23 things I’m buying to look like me, but better, in 2021—and that won’t leave a large dent in your wallet.



This pant silhouette has replaced almost all of my denim. 
I'm a clutch girl in 2021. 
It's time to dress your mask up with a trendy mask chain, if you haven't already. 
The said cut-out dress.
I'm giving my dainty, stackable rings a bold update. 
A quick piece of advice: use a hair mask as a conditioner 2-3 times a week and you will notice a real difference. 
The perfect morning de-puffer–so it's still me, just with a less tired, puffy face. 
As I said, I like color now. 
Saying goodbye to all of my crew necks; square neck only, please. 
The same ease as the wide-leg trouser, but in a short. 
There's nothing this face mask can't fix. 
I've replaced my sleek ponytails with a relaxed claw clip look. 
Say hello to my latest obsession: bright-colored biker shorts. 
Vegan leather sneakers are a must. 
Concealer sticks are the epitome of an item that makes you look better.
It's literally in the name; reset your skin with Emma Lewisham's Skin Reset Serum. 
It wouldn't be me without a bikini. 
Again, I love bright colors and linen and this Jacquemus skirt is the perfect marriage of the two. 
If you're like me and love a personalized necklace, ditch your initials for a horoscope piece like this. 
House slippers but make them trendy. 
I'm all about a wristlet clutch right now. 
The ultimate lip-enhancer. 
I'm indulging in cream-everything this year for a fresh, healthy glow.  Up next, find out which denim trend is dominating this season.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
