Trend to Try: Neon

Most of my wardrobe consists of neutral colors.

Mainly black.

It took me quite a while to give the neon trend a try, but new year, new trend. Right?

During the post-holiday sales, I ordered two neon sweaters.

While I wasn’t sure how I would like either one of them on me, I ended up liking them both. Especially with light washed jeans.

I’m not exactly going out and swapping everything I own for neon. But, I am going to try and be more open to trying more new trends.

There are some trends from the past year that I already happened to own. Animal print, the oversized blazer, and coveralls…

All of which you can expect to see plenty of on Twenty Something Plus throughout 2020.

What was your favorite 2019 trend?

After reading Victoria Beckham’s book and how she believed Ugg boots were something that should never be worn outside the house, I tried to make more of an effort to consciously curate my outfits before stepping foot outside.

While I will wear Uggs in public, you will not see me with my hair tied up or in sweats with holes. Not too long about if the subject matter had come up, I would have said the same about pajamas. But I decided to give the silk pajama shirt trend a try.

Sadly, I waited a little too long to jump onboard and missed out on a super cute burgundy one from J.Crew. I have my eyes peel for one in my size on Poshmark. Until then, I am practically living in this navy Madewell top.

Not going to lie, I’ve also slept in it!

And of course I have to try to play the matching game, by pairing this outfit with my Jord watch and my absolute favorite pair of jeans.

Velvet Nails

Velvet nails. Sounds interesting, right? Well, in my January Birchbox a while back, I got Nail Rock by Rock Beauty London in Velvet Burgundy.

The application was simple enough, just two coats of polish, then dip. The results? Soft and fuzzy! Very cool.

If you’re not adventurous when it comes to beauty, I’m not really sure how’d you feel about it. Otherwise, this is worth a try. The velvet effect doesn’t last that long, mine started to fade after a couple of days, but the color shows through so it’s hardly noticeable.

I really wish there was a way you could feel this via the internet right now! Think it’s something you’d consider trying? Velvet too creepy? It also comes in glitter!
