Ok, before we start on my fave looks of 2020, I know that no one is particularly eager to look back fondly on this year – and it was a year. And while I’m the first to say that there are no guarantees that 2021 will magically be better (I’m not one to sugarcoat things), there is something to be said for wrapping up a solidly sh*tty year, no? In a year where it truly didn’t matter what you wore – so many of us were stuck at home, after all – we had the opportunity to reflect on why we wear what we do. For me, it comes down to finding your joy.

So today’s post is, admittedly, self-indulgent: a refection on my fave looks of 2020 from here on the blog!

Let’s get to it – in no particular order:

1. Fave looks of 2020: this modern-day fairy tale heroine ensemble:
