YOUR DIGITAL STYLIST AND NEW BFF
FROM MALIBU 2 PARIS, WE'VE GOT YOU COVERED
I'm going to be totally honest: up until about an hour ago, I didn't even know you could get cute clothes from Amazon. Personally, I enjoy scrolling through a website, selecting the cutest pieces, and doing the whole add-to-cart thing, but in this day and age of fast-moving technology and next-day delivery, is adding-to-cart dying out?
So I decided to try and find the cutest things I could off of Amazon for those times when you want a tank top and don't want to spend $75 on it, or you need a baby tee ASAP. I put together this list to make finding it girl styles on Amazon super easy because, let me tell you from personal experience, finding cute clothes on Amazon is anything but easy. You can put in every keyword and copy a title exactly, yet the piece will never pop up. So after spending half my day scrolling, hitting the next page, and trying to type in any and every keyword I can think of, I found the cutest it-girl-approved pieces from Amazon.
And now you can shop them in record-breaking time.
The 2024 Met's theme was Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion, and the dress code was Garden of Time, so you know the girls needed to pull out some looks. I was hoping to see very romantic and feminine looks, with references to Sleeping Beauty and themes of that sort. And I will say some of the girls did just that. I mean, Elle Fanning showed up and was able to claim that she actually was Sleeping Beauty in a movie; she basically couldn't go wrong (and she did not). There was also Zendaya showing up not once, but twice, in two different looks and Kim Kardashian having like a negative three-inch waist. But I was happy to see where the archival pieces were pulled and modeled on the carpet and at the after-parties.
Kendall hit the carpet in this dark feminine look from Givenchy straight off the mannequin. She claimed that she was the first person ever to wear this vintage piece, but nobody even wore it on the runway. However, after making this announcement all night, some people went digging and found a photo of Winona Ryder in this dress for a photoshoot. So, was that a perfectly identical replica, or did the Jenner and Givenchy team not do their homework? Either way, she served a look, I mean look at that face and pose.
Another look that got some controversy because of Miss Emily's "repeatednesss." Apparently, she chooses the same shape and look every year for every carpet, and the girls want to see something outside of the box come from her. But I mean, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Dark angel princess of the night in the garden, everyone loved. Personally, I'm not loving the hairstyle but other than that, I gotta give it to her, tens all around. I love this dress, the sleeves, the makeup, and that gorgeous sheet cape. She absolutely destroyed this carpet and then turned it into a mini dress for her interviews, love her for that.
Our butterfly girl. I feel like Iris could have came as such a fairy princess with lots of draping and layers and pastel colors, but she went for a tighter and darker look, and she still looked good. It's an amazing dress and she chose the perfect eye makeup to go with it. My question is, is it a little plain for the Met?
Whether you like Kendall's Met looks or not, there is never a question of whether her after-party look is going to serve or not. She is somehow always on theme and always in the cutest mini look, the true vibe of an afterparty. These angel-like wings are making me think of Romeo and Juliet, and then that makes me think of a Garden, so she and her team absolutely nailed it. And the fact that she pulled another look right after this? I mean, three looks in one night! That's our girl.
What did you girls think of this year's Met looks?

Spring is officially here, which means I have a whole list of current obsessions for this season. Below, I’ve put together a few things that I have been super into lately that I think totally emulate springtime. There’s a bit of fashion and beauty, along with some literature recs and a playlist that will become your new go-to when you’re driving around and soaking up the fresh air and warm weather.
Low-rise leggings with a fitted bell bottom designed by Kaia Gerber are the perfect piece of loungewear to add to your wardrobe this spring. This item can be worn casually to the gym or just hanging around. But it can also be easily elevated and take you from night to day. Kaia Gerber’s sense of style is sophisticated mixed with a carefree Malibu girl, and these pants are exactly that. These will definitely be a staple pair of bottoms you will be reaching for this spring.
I have never read a book quite like Joan Didion’s The Magical Year of Thinking. There were a lot of moments when I had to put it down and sort of stare into space for a minute because the way she writes is just truly so incredible. She captures grief in such a transparent and honest way. Her writing is blunt and she doesn’t hide her feelings of anger and despair. There have been times in my life where I have dealt with loss and grief and I would turn to articles hoping for comforting advice and I would mostly get these sort of motivational quotes like “Live your life and make them proud” which always seemed so strange to me. Was anyone going to just be super honest for a minute and talk about how difficult the grieving period actually is, and how it basically never ends? I wasn’t sure someone could actually write about it. But as soon as I read the first page of The Magical Year of Thinking I felt confident that I had picked up the right book. “These people who have lost someone look naked because they think themselves invisible. I myself felt invisible for a period of time, incorporeal. I seemed to have crossed one of those legendary rivers that divide the living from the dead, entered a place in which I could be seen only by those who were themselves recently bereaved.” Joan Didion definitely gets it.
I’m such a major fan of anything by the SC Collection, which is a handmade jewelry company based out of New York. Their pieces are what I would describe as “beach glitz.” I’m currently obsessed with their Daisy Necklace, an 18” charm necklace that adds the perfect touch to any spring and summer outfit. It has gold-plated rhinestone charms, antique chunky gold chains, and a delicate clasp. Basically, it’s the necklace of my dreams. And it’s named after Daisy from The Great Gatsby, as the website tells us. How perfect is that?
Another Kaia Gerber obsession I’m bringing with me as we enter spring. But can you blame me? She’s the ultimate it girl. I recently discovered this playlist she made with Apple Music a little while ago and while it’s technically for summer, most of the songs give me spring energy. It’s a mix of old school classics with breezy rock. Think Van Morrison, Fleetwood Mac, Hall and Oates…It’s the ultimate playlist to drive around town with the windows down.
How else are you going to keep your face protected from the sun while looking cute at the same time? With a pair of sunglasses by Oliver Peoples, of course. These oversized granite sunglasses I found by them on The Real Real are so in for spring and summer.
With the weather getting warmer and summer right around the corner, sunshine is on everyone's mind. And with the sun, comes a high UV, which means sunscreen. Ideally we wear sunscreen everyday all year long, but this is the time of year to get your hands on a new one (or a better one) because not all sunscreen is the same.
Personally, I've struggled with finding good sunscreens. I've made my fair share of mistakes, like buying one from a brand I thought would be good, and then it totally left my face like I just went to a kid's face painting party and asked to look like Droopy. Or sometimes, when you finish applying and look like a total grease bomb or something gets into your eye, and you're blinded and burning for the rest of the day.
But I've done my research (as I do), and I've compiled the list of TIGG-approved sunscreens so you can safely shop knowing you'll look good, feel good, glow good, and most importantly - protect your face good (I think well is the proper word but a play on words is more important than the grammar lessons we got in eighth grade).
"A lightweight sunscreen serum with Collagen Peptide that helps protect against sun damage and helps visibly correct early signs of aging." - Kiehl's
I recently tested out this sunscreen the other day because I'm a fan of other Kiehl's products, so I wanted to see if their sunscreen would hold up - and let me tell you, it did. It was super soft and lightweight and felt amazing on the skin. It also left my face with this soft shine that was super natural and not oily at all. Plus, after using it and washing my face, I still felt great. I loved the way it sat on my skin, and the product even claims to help improve skin texture and tone. So, a sunscreen that not only protects you from the sun but improves your skin and makes you look good while doing all that? I'll take it.
"This cult beauty favorite gives your skin a sunkissed glow, without the sun damage. We created Glowscreen to mimic the warm radiance your skin gets from being in the sunshine, and we packed it with expert SPF protection and powerful ingredients like hyaluronic acid and niacinamide to keep your skin looking luminous all year round." - Supergoop!
This is my go-to base during the summer because it's really all you need for a hydrated, glowy, and slightly tinted base. If you want the same effect but don't like the tinted aspect, then the Unseen Sunscreen, also from Supergoop!, is amazing as a glowy sunscreen but even better underneath your makeup. It truly is the best primer for a natural and glowy look.
"EltaMD UV Daily Broad Spectrum SPF 40 is a sheer, lightweight moisturizing sunscreen formulated with hyaluronic acid to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It is ideal for daily use on normal, dry and combination skin. This broad spectrum sunscreen contains micronized zinc oxide to protect your skin from damaging UVA (aging) and UVB (burning) rays." - EltaMD
If you want a basic go-to sunscreen without any thought, this one is probably a safe option. It's a classic, easy to find and buy, and loved by many girls.
A nice lightweight sunscreen that doesn't leave a white cast on your skin (because that's really the basic essentials when it comes to sunscreen). If you like a super light and thin sunscreen, then this is for you. If you prefer a thicker, creamier one, I'd reach for something else. However, based on all the sunscreens on this list - this one is my least favorite.
You guys. I was recently over at a friend's house, and we were going outside, and I needed sunscreen (because, hello, UV 9, you can't go out without sunscreen). It was a predominantly boys' house, so this was what was handed to me. I didn't really care, and I was expecting to be left with an insane white cast, greasy skin, and stinging eyes, but whatever; I didn't want to ruin my skin in the long run. But oh, my gosh. I LOVED this sunscreen! It was sheer and not sticky at all and left me with such a natural and soft glow, but I didn't look greasy at all. If you told me this was Chanel's new high-quality sunscreen, I would've believed you and spent $100 on it, no problem. It's really a great example of a great product with an unappealing package, and for $10, you don't think you are getting much - but wow. Perfect for beach days or travel, or even everyday wear, this is a much purchase.
As Paris fashion week comes to a close, the latest collections seem to be taking a step back in time. A time where Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen ruled street style in 2005 with oversized men’s button up with NYU zip ups, slouchy designer bags, smudged eyeliner, and messy braids.
Chloé’s new creative director, Chemena Kamali, has brought in the revival of boho chic with her debut collection and is introducing a younger generation to the style that was was major piece in defining 2000s fashion.
For the past few seasons, fashion has been revising old trends, rather than create new concepts. Every 20 years, fashion recycles itself and we’re seeing this happen again. As spring comes upon us, the comeback of boho chic is ready for its moment.
There’s a sense of “chill” to boho chic, compared to Y2K which was low rise jeans and tight tops. Boho chic focuses more on an element of carefree fun. Kamali’s collection was able to capture the true essance of the style that seems true to her as a designer but also Chloé as an overall brand.
Majority of the pieces take inspiration from the brand’s 2004 fall ready to wear collection, the year boho chic was in full force. Hip slung trousers, collerless jackets, slouchy bags, and tap-shorts filled the runway. Delicate shift tops were mixed with babydoll dresses and glossy dark shaded boots. The star of the show was a gold logo belt that spelt Chloé in a loopy cursive script.
The models wore their hair loose and natural and their makeup light and natural, careful not to overpower the clothes.
Kamali herself embodied her designs to a T. She took her bow as the show closed wearing a pair of low rise flared denim jeans and an untucked white lace blouse.
The feel of the F/W collection was natural and being true to yourself, and when Kamali ran down the runway stage with a bright smile as her young son jumped from his seat to give her a hug, it was the perfect way to close out the show.
With Chloé’s success, the boho chic’s revival is well on its way to taking over the fashion trends. Who knows, maybe Blake Lively will go back to her Serena van der Woodsen roots(the Gossip Girl character was famous for mixing laid back bohemian with high end designer style) or see the Olsen twins step out in a rare paparazzi photo to give a nod to the 2000’s style they made so famous.
Editors Note: To see how you can emulate this style with your own pieces, TIGG gives you Your Sexy Guide to Boho Chic. You're welcome.
There's no denying my phone must be tuned in to my Sade obsession because lately, I've been flooded with TikToks of Sade-inspired looks. As I type this, "Like a Tattoo" is serenading me from my laptop, queued with her entire discography on repeat. For classy and sophisticated, the Nigerian-British singer is truly an inspiration. Whether she's gracing the stage with her performances or attending a high-profile event, she effortlessly draws attention in tailored pieces that highlight her silhouette with precision. The singer and former fashion student has me obsessed with how classy yet cool and bohemian Sade’s style can be.
A staple of Sade Adu’s wardrobe is certainly the collared shirt acting as a symbol of confidence and empowerment. Paired with a bold red lip, it's her signature of self-assured femininity, inspiring and timeless. Elevate this classic with chunky gold jewelry, a staple in her effortlessly chic style.
Captured at Live Aid 1985, Sade dazzles in a breathtaking white backless piece perfectly
complemented by her iconic slicked-back hair
and gold hoops. This stunning top is the epitome
of elegance, setting a timeless standard with its
monochromatic palette. Paired with sleek black
tailored trousers, it's a look that shows timeless
sophistication, inspiring others today.
Adorned in an intricately embroidered deep red and
black jacket, Sade transforms the simplicity of a white
turtleneck into a cool outfit bursting with personality. Her
unique ability for layering shines through, showcasing
her impeccable style no matter the occasion. This
statement jacket not only shows a boldness to her
typically monochromatic pieces but also serves as a testament to Sade's unparalleled ability to curate her
signature look with flair and finesse.
Sade's love affair with black isn't just about fashion; it's her signature style statement, setting her apart with unparalleled flair. As everyone knows, one cannot go wrong with a black piece, however Sade transforms fashion with her choices with the monochromatic palette. Whether on the stage or the red carpet, Sade effortlessly enchants in her signature black ensembles, sculpting her statuesque figure with an aura of effortless elegance. These images speak for themselves - look how elegant and refined!
Fashion muse and rising movie star Zendaya became the star of the Dune 2 press tour and world premier, with some outrageously stunning looks from Seoul to Mexico that showcased her ability to turn heads with a simple garment. Pulling archival Mugler and Givenchy pieces into the mix, here’s a rundown of her most showstopping ensembles.
Inspired by the film Metropolis, this chrome plexiglass Mugler piece is what put Zendaya in the spotlight for the
world premiere. When the event first hit social media, comments and reposts were filled with shock and amusement, but one thing that everyone agreed on was that the fashionista never missed an outfit.
After her debut, she changed into a beautiful black dress, again from Mugler. With a stunning draped cowl-neck and cinched waist, she adorned vintage Bulgari jewelry to add a glint of sparkle to this look.
One thing that Zendaya is best known for is her outfit
versatility. As we can see, this burgundy suit worn for the
London photo call features an oversized blazer and trousers with a long skirt overlay. The torso of the suit provides a feminine touch to the outfit, with darts sewn at the waist to highlight her silhouette.
Keeping with the dystopian theme of Dune, the actress
wore an avant-garde garment in Mexico. With red, grey, and navy fabric clinging to wrapped circular embellishments, she completed the outfit with more Bulgari jewels.
Zendaya and Timothée Chalamet appeared in coordinating pastel jumpsuits for the Seoul press conference; dressed in powder pink and baby blue, they showcased the 2024 spring collection in perfect style.
This stunning textured piece from Louis Vuitton features a hooded, shoulder-padded crop top and floor-grazing maxi skirt with a wide waistband. Zendaya’s hair and makeup suited her beautifully: slick-styled hair and bronzed makeup blended in seamlessly with the backdrop for the Paris red carpet.
And finally, her fit for the Seoul premiere, a long-sleeved bodycon dress embellished with futuristic red printed shapes, providing an interesting contrast with the grey. Her hair is in a Korean-style updo with a red smokey eye to accentuate her features.
Zendaya is, without a doubt, the most innovative and stylish fashion icon of our generation. Her looks are simply genius, and I cannot wait to see what she comes up with next.

The echo of 18th century corsetry, combined with the beauty of bridal lace, royal accents and feminine silhouettes, make Kim Kassas the most timeless wedding couture designer.
Her Crown Jewels collection displays a perfect harmony between modern and vintage themes, as the classic shape of the corsets mimic Marie Antoinette, and classical french silhouettes. The basics of corset history tell us that, from the 1700's to 1800's, the female figure featured a dramatic contrast of a tiny torso and voluminous skirts made of silk
and satin. Kassas presents a new way to bring back renaissance and royal bridal wear.
Kassas’ work is simply beautiful, as she references renaissance and royalty, and showcases baroque accents, perfect for the timeless bride. This collection highlights some religious connotations through the inclusion of crosses, biblical themed photoshoots and poses. The exquisite painted backdrop immitates Michelangelo’s work in the Sistine Chapel, contrasting with the vastness and simplicity of the white gowns. Kassas uses a variety of luxurious silks and satin, along with floral lace and sheer fabric to create dimension and contrast; while the boned corsets and stiff material add structure to accentuate the models body.
Want to be covered head to toe in lace? Anne is the girl for you. Kassas created an incredible modern twist on the traditional gown, with delicate ostrich feathers grazing the floor and pearly organza fabric draped across the shoulders, what's not to love? This piece juxtaposes itself with the gorgeous Indian embroidered skirt which is shorter at the front and trails at the back, adorned with a high lace cuff around the neck, and detachable sleeves that attach to a wave of sheer along the upper back.
The chandelier inspired corset is made from purple and gold Solstiss lace, and showcases a voluminous skirt printed with baroque accents and silky fabric. Lacing across the back drips shards of crystal, replicating the light fixture it's named after. This piece is different to the others in the collection, due to its burst of colour. The yellow and purple provide a truly royal theme to the gown, which I think showcases Kim Kassas’ design variety beautifully.
This dress is my absolute dream dress, Kim Kassas first came to my attention when I saw this gorgeous dress online. This piece comes in two parts, a stunning slip dress made of embroidered Indian lace, that acts as a base layer to the garment, with fragile floral detailing on the cups and beaded straps. The second provides the silk voluminous Duchess skirt and beautiful beaded corset, perfect for a versatile and elegant option.
Though many brides will aspire to adorn gowns befitting to trends and modern styles, Kim Kassas presents a new genre of pieces that will inspire anyone, and I absolutely adore it.

Old - Hollywood meets New Hollywood. Genius. The Kardashian's marketing team (aka Kris Jenner) has created the collaboration of the year with a new Valentine's collection, presenting music muse Lana Del Rey as the star. The old- Hollywood, ethereal-voiced singer became the new Skims spokesperson for the series, and I have never been more convinced to buy a pair of PJs in my life.
The juxtaposition of aesthetics between owner Kim Kardashian and Lana creates the perfect balance of coquette and sexy. The bright pastel hues and silk, lacey accessories featured in the January shoot, photographed by Nadia Lee Cohen, perfectly oppose Kim's infamous neutral shapewear line that we've come to love.
The catalog of new images showcases Del Rey, surrounded by deep reds and pastels, cats and silk embellishments; dressed in her line of slip dresses, bodysuits, and pajamas.
Lana's persona and style are perfectly portrayed in this shoot, with a soft melancholy theme to show the variety of products. 29 lace-trimmed garments, exclusive to Skims, are now available to buy; the prices range from around $16 to $124.
Heart - printed pyjamas and soft sleepwear, paired with an arrowed apple with Del Rey's initials carved into it. Kim has created the comfiest sets to ensure you can sleep in style.
The red bodysuit stands out flawlessly against a white background and a black leather jacket draped across her shoulders. To make this image quintessentially Lana Del Rey, of course she has a matching heart-shaped lace eyepatch.
Another arrow appears to be the harmartia of this look; with the trail of blood dripping from a pierced heart, this look not only showcases the skims but also tells a story. The black lace veil atop her head, matched with a lace - trimmed slip dress, emulates a tragic bride to perfection.
The collection is ideal for taking an outfit from day to night and even from night to sleep, especially with the slip dresses and silk tops. Perfect to pair with trousers, knee - high boots, and a clutch bag, the garments provide the versatility to get straight into bed after a long night out. I personally will be obsessing over the pink lace tops, and will be trying to convince my boyfriend into buying me one for Valentine's (and I think you should too).
