"Slutty-Cozy"
Also known as "slowzy", this is a look championed by LA natives — think plunging V-necks in soft fabrics and slouchy sweaters worn sans-pants. Cult brands American Apparel (RIP) and Reformation are who you can thank for this one, with the term coined by Racked. It's all about feeling sexy but staying comfy.

They say three's a trend, but in this case, it only takes one, in the form of British fashion writer Pandora Sykes (@pandorasykes) who has gone where no other would: a posted snap of her Christopher Kane crystal-emblazoned Crocs, coining the phrase "controversial house slippers" in her caption.

Office Apropos
The team at Man Repeller, led by Leandra Medine, are here to help you tow the line between professional and playful with their workwear roundups. Next time you want to wear your new sheepskin clogs to the office, search #MROfficeApropos on Instagram for some helpful pointers on how it's done.

The Vete-bump
If maternity wear isn't for you, take a leaf out of Vetements' book and use oversized, deconstructed pieces to your advantage. Make like Danish style-star Pernille Teisbaek (@pernilleteisbaek) and cradle your bump in a giant Vetements x Mackintosh trench coat.
