Guest backgrounds

Not applicable (no guests).

Key claims

  • LaBubu: The host calls LaBubu a trend driven by collectible hype and “Jane Birkening the bag” (clipping accessories onto bags). They argue it’s not fully timeless because of saturation, but the small, personality-filled accessory could last for years for true fans.
  • White tank top: “Undeniably timeless,” sparked by viral Kendall Jenner styling on TikTok.
  • Polka dots/stripes: Timeless patterns that are bold enough to be interesting but basic enough to never go out of style.
  • Butter yellow (pastel yellow): Timeless pastel color; neon is the main “not timeless” category.
  • Athleisure: Wearing athletic sets as fashion is predicted to be timeless due to functionality; only specific gimmicky micro-trends fade.
  • Early 2000s chaotic bags: Not timeless; expected to fatigue quickly.
  • Bubble skirts, bloomers: Considered timeless due to silhouette longevity and versatility.
  • Mesh flats, flip-flop kitten heels: Labeled timeless/versatile despite oversaturation.
  • Scarves/bandanas: The scarf/bandana accessory is timeless; the trendy part is hyper-specific patterns.
  • Suede: Mostly not timeless; tends to look cheap or moment-based.
  • Monogrammed L.L. Bean boat tote: Timeless due to thick canvas, classic shape, and personalization.
  • Oval glasses: Timeless because the shape is standard and functional; contrasted with more hyper-stylized frames.

Notable examples

  • Kendall Jenner’s white tank top with leather pants (sports game) driving TikTok searches.
  • Stanley Cup-style collecting analogy for LaBubu blind boxes and long lines.
  • Chloe Paddington and Balenciaga City as early-2000s “chaotic bag” examples.
  • L.L. Bean monogram tote (“Miss Emma”) described as cream/red canvas with reinforced edges.
  • Oval vs futuristic shield-like glasses frames as the “timeless vs trendy” contrast.

0:00Emma Chamberlain:Welcome back to Trendy or Timeless, a series here on Anything Goes where we discuss and analyze current trends in the zeitgeist and determine together whether they are trendy or timeless. Trendy meaning they're just a flash in the pan. We like them today and we'll hate them tomorrow. Or timeless meaning, yeah, they might be repackaged as a trend right now, but actually to their core, they're timeless. They're going to be cool forever. I haven't done one of these in a while because the trend cycle is seemingly slowing down. Like a lot of the trending items right now were also trending a few years ago.

0:42Emma Chamberlain:I've already talked about them. And if you want to hear me talk about them, you can go listen to trendy or timeless episodes of the past. It's been hard to compile a list of new current trends over the last year or so because there just hasn't been a lot of new stuff. I also think too that we're at a point now where there's been so many micro trends over the last few years that we've almost cycled through everything. Like everything's trended over the last few years. And so now we're at this point where it kind of feels like there is no defined trends. But then there are because there definitely are, but it's like harder than ever to pinpoint.

1:29Like in 2020, it was like, okay, checkerboard prints back.

1:34Emma Chamberlain:And it was back in a big way. And it was really obvious. Whereas now it's like, yeah, I guess polka dots are trendy, but also so are like a trillion other different. I don't know. It's like it feels less defined to me nowadays. However, that could also be because I'm not as chronically online as I used to be. I used to be so chronically online that every time there was even like a whisper of a trend, I would pick up on it because I was so online. Whereas now, in order to find out about the trends, I either have to watch other people discuss what's trending right now, like on YouTube or something, like almost do like a trend roundup.

2:16Emma Chamberlain:Or I have to read articles from fashion publications about what's currently trending. Or I have to ask you, people who know a little bit more about what's in the zeitgeist than me. And for this particular episode. It was a combination of all those things. I did my own research, but I also asked you to submit what trends you've been seeing a lot lately so that I could comment on those as well. It's harder than ever for me to gather this info, but I'm not sure exactly why. And it might be that I'm just not as online as I used to be, but that's neither here nor there. Okay. Who cares about that? Let's get into the trends.

2:58Emma Chamberlain:I briefly interrupt this episode to let you know that this episode if anything goes, is presented by Walmart. Sure, technically it's still summer, but mentally I'm already starting to think about fall fashion. And you know who has everything to upgrade your fall wardrobe? Walmart. Walmart has all the pieces you could ever need. We're talking about cozy sweaters for apple picking, casual staples for carving pumpkins. We're talking about cool sneakers, cute boots, and the price is right. Shop major fall trends and new drops at walmart.com slash shop slash women's dash trends. That's walmart.com slash shop slash women's dash trends.

3:45Emma Chamberlain:Now back to the episode. Starting with labubu. Now, if you don't know what the labubu is, it's basically a little stuffed animal with a very particular aesthetic. It's a little bit soft, but a little bit creepy looking. And it's incredibly popular, particularly for people who like to collect things. Like I think this is like a Stanley Cup moment happening all over again. You know, everyone became obsessed with the Stanley Cup, I don't know, a year or two ago, and started collecting all the colors. This is having the same cultural effect. People are obsessed with collecting these little labubu stuffed animals.

4:30Emma Chamberlain:Now, I think why these are so popular right now is because number one, they are cute. Like I actually like the way that the little labubus look. You know, they're kind of creepy, but they're fuzzy and they're cute and they have a little clip so you can clip them onto your bag or onto your belt loop or whatever. They're cute, but also they perfectly align with the trend that we've already been discussing for the last year or two now, which is Jane Birkening the bag. If you don't know what Jane Birkening the bag is, it's basically hanging a bunch of keychains and jewelry and accessories off of a purse to accessorize it and make it look more personal.

5:13That was already a trend. Then the LeBubu came out and it was like, okay, now we have this fun, collectible little stuffed animal that we can clip onto our bag. And yes, they are cute. I actually really like how they look. And to be honest, if they weren't so trendy, I would buy one. The only reason why I haven't bought one is because it's just become sort of this, the trend around it, the culture around it is too

5:39Emma Chamberlain:extreme for me right now. Like to give you some context, I'm not super tapped into what's going on, but like people are waiting in five hour lines to get a LaBubu. And the way that it works is that you get like a blind box, I guess. I still don't really know how this works, but you get a blind box. So you like will buy a LaBubu, but you don't know which one you got till you open the box and you find out what you got. So you wait in this long line and then you don't know what you got. So that is adding to the collectible nature. Like people will wait in line and buy a bunch of them because they're like, I want to try to get the one that I want.

6:13Emma Chamberlain:It's genius business model. Genius. But the whole like culture around it of like buying a bunch of them and collecting them all and now it being this thing like everyone has one, that sort of deters me from wanting to participate because it does feel a little bit, I don't know, like it's a little bit too extremist for me. Do you know what I'm saying? So that's why I personally wouldn't participate. I would honestly rather wait until all these people that bought the labubus are like, oh, wait, I'm sick of it. And then they start like putting them on eBay for really cheap. Then maybe I'll get one because I actually do like them.

6:51I think they are kind of cool and I think they are kind of cute.

6:54Emma Chamberlain:So it's a shame that the culture around it is so extreme because otherwise I would have one. Do I think that they're timeless? No. Anytime there's a hyper specific item like this, it's virtually impossible for it to be timeless. There will come a time in the near future, I think, where it becomes not cool anymore to have a labubu. It's not necessarily like cringe. It's such a small little accessory that it kind of doesn't matter. But I do think that it's so hyper specific that at a certain point soon, it just won't be as desirable anymore. It will become too saturated. We'll be fatigued by them.

7:31We won't want to look at them anymore. will get sick of them. And they won't. It's definitely just a trend. However, there is something that I actually like. And in that way, you know, to me, it might be a timeless item. When everyone gets sick of them, I might go on eBay and buy one. You see what I'm saying? Because I like it. I like them. But I think the sort of obsession with collecting them and stuff like that, that is a trend. And I think the way that people are buying like like so many of them and having this massive collection, like that's going to be regrettable to buy one LaBubu and enjoy it.

8:07And like it becoming your little friend for the next, you know, five years to come. If you love the LaBubu, like that's fine. That actually might even be, I can't believe I'm saying this, timeless. I think little things that have personality like that can in a way be timeless and things that are subtle enough and small enough like that, just like a little accessory that you just clip on your bag. That can be timeless. But I think culturally, we're going to get sick of it.

8:35Emma Chamberlain:And I think it's not going to be like, I mean, I think LeBouBou has a year, you know, max until it's really not cool anymore. But I do think that there's going to be a lot of people out there that keep their LeBouBou and enjoy it for years to come because they genuinely like the design. You know what I mean? They like the energy it brings to their outfit. I shockingly don't hate the Lububu, but I do think collecting them all is a toxic trend that is ultimately just over-consuming. And I think the Lububu itself is so specific that it itself is going to lose its status symbol of like, oh, look at my cute Lububu.

9:18Like, it's not going to be cool anymore very soon. But I do think because it's such a particular aesthetic, the people who really like it could keep it going. So actually, in a way, I think it's kind of trendy and timeless. I don't know. And I can't believe I'm saying that. But I think when something's that hyper specific, in a weird way, it can be timeless because you can make this decision to like keep it going. You know what I mean? And because it's so small, like that thing can be on your keys. Like you can clip one onto your key chain for the next five years and it's like not going to get in the way.

9:55It's just this fun little thing. I don't know. And then I think years down the line, like I could see kids buying these vintage, you know, again, going online, buying them resale and like it becoming a trend again. I don't know. These little items, little teeny accessories like this can weirdly be timeless if they're super hyper

10:14Emma Chamberlain:specific like this. I don't know. We'll see. Okay, next. I can't believe that this is a trend, but I just found out about this. A plain white tank top. Okay, I just watched a whole video essay on YouTube about this. I actually watched multiple video essays on YouTube about this. Apparently, the white tank top is trending on TikTok because Miss Kendall Jenner was wearing a white tank top with leather pants at like a sports game. And it went viral because everyone was like, what tank top is she wearing? This white tank top is so chic. Like, where can I get it? And so it became this viral sort of trend to figure out what white tank top Kendall Jenner was wearing.

10:57Emma Chamberlain:And thus, the white tank top is trending. Now, I'm not even going to discuss this any further. The white tank top is undeniably timeless. A white tank top is never out of style. And I personally love a white tank top. And I have for as long as I can remember. Actually, not as long as I can remember, but probably for the last like four years, five years, a white tank top has been a closet staple for me for the same reasons that it's going viral right now. It's a basic that looks good with everything and when styled properly can look really elevated and chic and cool. like it makes sense to me that it's trending because it's like wait a minute this is so simple and affordable but also it can look really good I actually there's a lot of people up in arms about the fact that the white tank top is trending and I kind of understand why I think it like we all probably have a good enough white tank top in our closet and I think this trend is leading people to try to find the perfect one and it's like you probably already have it I understand that criticism.

12:06I somewhat agree with it. I also think too, some people are like, are you guys dumb? Like, why are you freaking out over a white tank top? But I think because I so deeply enjoy a white tank top.

12:20Emma Chamberlain:And when I sort of figured out how amazing of a closet staple it was, I was kind of excited. And I just wore only white tank tops with various bottoms for like, multiple years, I get it. From a fashion perspective, sometimes it takes people a bit longer to realize, oh, wait, sometimes understated, simple, obvious things are actually the best options. Like if somebody got into fashion a few years ago and they started with maximalism, you know, like big, you know, ruffly blouses and like tunics and like fur coats and stuff, they might have overlooked the white tank top and how chic it can be. I get it.

13:02Like I actually get it. So I don't know. I actually don't feel it is a little ridiculous. Like I get where people are coming from when they're like, why is a white tank top trending? What is happening? But I actually get it. And I ultimately think we all need white tank tops in our closet. It's useful in so many different ways, whether you're wearing it by

13:24Emma Chamberlain:itself or you're layering it on top of things. Like I'll take a olive green t-shirt and put a white tank top on top and it looks cute and sporty. Or, you know, I'll take a black tank top and put a white tank top over it for like a layered look. Like there's so many different things you can do with it. You know, I could take like a black collared shirt and I could put a white tank top over it and it'll have like a cool bunchy. Like there's so many things you can do with a white tank top. It's incredibly timeless. And it is a little bit silly that it's trending because it's like this is one of the most basic pieces of clothing you could possibly imagine.

13:59but I actually don't think it's a harmful trend at the end of the day. Like on the grand scheme of trends, going out and buying a white tank top because it's trending is not the worst case scenario. Going out and buying something hyper specific and trendy that you really can't style in a lot of different ways that you're ultimately just going to have to get rid of, you know, a year after that's much more harmful than buying a timeless basic. Like it personally makes me happy to see that people are excited about a white tank top. That's great. That's a thing you're going to have in your closet forever until it rips or gets so stained that it's like, but even if it gets stained, you could dye it another color.

14:36Like the options are endless. I like it. I love it. I think it's okay that the white tank top is trending.

14:43Emma Chamberlain:Okay, next, polka dots. Polka dot everything, particularly black and white and red and white polka dots, I've noticed anyway. But there's occasional brown and white polka dots. You know, the list goes on. Polka dot skirts, polka dot tops, polka dot ballet flats, polka dot capris, polka dot little mini shorts, polka dot mini skirt, polka dot socks. Polka dots are very much in. And I had a feeling that this would happen in the beginning of this year when I did one of my trend prediction episodes or like 2025 ins and outs, I mentioned polka dots. I felt this coming. And I'm not sure why. It might have been a gut instinct.

15:29Emma Chamberlain:It also might have been because I was starting to see a little bit more polka dots. And I was like, yeah, this is coming. I can't really remember where my head was at. But I saw this one coming. And here's the thing. I love polka dots. I love them. They are absolutely a timeless pattern to me. They are trendy right now. They are all over the place. But I don't think that there's ever a moment in time where polka dots are wrong. You can always, at any given moment, no matter what is going on in the trend cycles, style polka dots in a way that's cute and chic. It is timeless, in the same way that stripes are timeless.

16:08And that actually takes us to our next trend, which is stripes. another trend that I think I, I don't know if I predicted it, but I felt it coming. And I mentioned it in the beginning of this year. I think, I think I did. And if I didn't, let's just pretend I did and give me credit.

16:23Emma Chamberlain:Here's the thing about polka dots and stripes, okay? These are both some of the most generic, obvious, timeless patterns ever. And so yes, they are trending right now. However, I just truly do believe in my heart that you could never go wrong with stripes or polka dots. They're the perfect patterns. They're just interesting enough to grab your attention and to be bold and bright and exciting. But they're just simple enough to never really go out of style. You know what I'm saying? like stars, checkerboard print, mod 60s, like flowers and color blocking. All of these types of patterns have a shelf life.

17:11Emma Chamberlain:They're cool for a little bit and then everybody gets super sick of them. Stripes and polka dots are not quite busy enough, not quite loud enough for us to ever get sick of them. And personally, they're my two favorite patterns at this point in my life. I also love plaid. And I also think plaid is timeless. But plaid is a bit more hit or miss. Like there are times when plaid is not good. More often so than with stripes and polka dots. It's very rare that stripes or polka dots look bad because they're pretty basic. I mean, depending on what colors are used, like it's hard to fuck it up. Plaid can be kind of cringe looking sometimes.

17:52And certain types of plaids can be trendy for a moment and then go

17:56Emma Chamberlain:out of style. Stripes and polka dots are my favorite and they are undeniably timeless. Okay, moving on. Butter yellow clothing. Apparently this is a trend right now. This is like the color of the time. I feel like the last super trendy color was cherry red. There's something about food and color association that is doing really well in the zeitgeist over the last few years. the last trendy color was the cherry red. It was like a dark, deep maroon color. And that's technically not as in anymore. However, that's a timeless color. That is simply just maroon. Do you know what I'm saying? That is maroon.

18:39When it's called cherry red, it's like, yeah, okay, it's trendy. But when you call it what it is, which is maroon, that's a timeless color. And the same thing goes now with butter yellow. It's trendy because we're calling it butter yellow. But what it really is is pastel yellow. And that's a very standard, basic color. It's like always around. Pastel yellow is always around. You can always find something pastel yellow in the store. unless they're like super curated, trendy trends only. Like if you go into Urban Outfitters, you can find something pastel yellow at any point over the last 20 years.

19:22Like it's just, it's a basic color. Do you know what I mean?

19:25Emma Chamberlain:I think the only colors that are not timeless, in my opinion, in my opinion, neon colors, which I just hate in general. I really don't like neon colors, but they're so bright and they're so fatiguing to look at. that they have a tendency to be trendy. Like they'll come in for a minute, like in 2010 or something, I think. Beyond colors were super trendy and then boom, it was out. It was out quick and everybody got so sick of it because it's too bright. It's too bright. It hurts. It hurts to look at. Butter yellow, aka pastel yellow, that is timeless. That is something that, that is a color that people have been wearing and enjoying, regardless of the trends, for such a long time.

20:09Emma Chamberlain:Like if you were to take a history book that has pictures from the last 200 years, and you were to open random pages, you'd get butter yellow more often than you'd think. Like, it's just, it's a great color. Pastel yellow. It's timeless. It's chic. And it's classic. I personally really like it. I think what I like about it the most too is that butter yellow kind of looks like cream. Like it almost reads as a shade of white sometimes, which I think is really nice. And I mean, depending on what your definition of butter yellow is, I have a few butter yellow things in my collection and I love the warmth and the creaminess that they bring.

20:54Emma Chamberlain:So yeah, that's the verdict. Butter yellow, aka pastel yellow, timeless. Okay, next we have wearing athletic clothing as fashion, you know, the cute leggings with the cute sports bra, with the cute top on top, with the cute puffer jacket, with the cute headband, with the cute little Pilates socks, with the little, you know, slippers and like the whole athleisure Pilates aesthetic. This is at this point starting to feel like a fashion trend because people are wearing this athletic wear to the grocery store, to brunch, to things other than a workout class, right? And I'm going to say something shocking to both of us.

21:38Emma Chamberlain:And I might regret it, but I'm going to say something shocking to both of us. In some ways, this is timeless. And let me explain why. Now, it's not timeless in the way that if you were to go back like 50 years and look at books of people walking around town. And if you were to observe the fashion, you'd see aloe yoga sets because that's obviously not the case. But I think it's timeless in the sense that now and for the rest of time, I don't think this is ever going to go out of style because it's functional. It might not be timeless in the way that it stood the test of time because it's existed prior to now.

22:21Emma Chamberlain:But I think it's timeless in the sense that it's kind of a new thing that's almost been invented. Like, we've really advanced our active wear in the last 10 years. And culturally, we've become much more relaxed about when we wear active wear. And I don't really see us going backwards. I just don't. So I actually think this might be timeless, shockingly, because it serves such a specific purpose. And because I actually understand this purpose, I've experienced this purpose. Like, I'm somebody who loves exercise, okay? I need my exercise. It's very important to me. It keeps me grounded. It keeps me sane.

23:01Emma Chamberlain:It keeps me smiling, etc. It can be incredibly helpful and efficient to go run errands in a cute workout set and then go to the workout after. You see what I'm saying? If you're going on a hike with friends and then going to brunch, why change when you could just stay in your cute workout set? I get it. Do I think that there are micro trends within the athletic wear category that are trendy and not timeless? Yes. Like I think when it comes to active wear, you know, the timeless stuff is the stuff that is truly functional active wear that has zero to no flaws in its functionality and is simple enough to stand the test of time.

23:47Emma Chamberlain:Okay. Let me give an example, like a classic black pair of leggings and a classic black sports bra in a classic, maybe sheer white sort of long sleeve, you know, workout top and a white scrunchy little sock and maybe a little functional sneaker, even a trendy one like a Solomon or, you know, in Adidas or whatever. Like that is not really to me a trendy outfit. It's all simple. You're never going to get sick of any of that stuff. And it's serving a defined purpose. You know what I'm saying. Whereas wearing a pair of bright pink yoga pants with a super boobalicious cleavage-esque sports bra where your boobs are falling out when you actually work out in it.

24:38And the second you start sweating, you can see a sweat stain around your swamp ass because it's pink.

24:44Emma Chamberlain:So you can see it. And also with the sports bra, it's like not actually holding the boobs in place. So when you're exercising, the boobs are not being contained. They're around. And you wear that with a little, you know, ballet inspired wrap top that's really inconvenient to tie around yourself. And then once you tie it around yourself, it's kind of uncomfortable and you feel like a sausage in a casing. You know, you feel like a sausage that's been wrapped in twine and hung on the ceiling in an Italian grandma's kitchen. Like, listen, I'm not saying that these things aren't necessarily timeless for some people, right?

25:20Like some people, this is their aesthetic. This is what they love, but that's more trendy to me. It's not as functional. It's more rooted in aesthetic and it's very hyper-specific and people will get sick of it. Do you see what I'm saying? So there are micro trends within this trend, but I think the trend of wearing active wear out and it being sort of a fashion statement, I think that we're going to be seeing that for the rest of time, for the rest of our lives.

25:41Emma Chamberlain:That will never go out of style. And I think the key to it is finding a timeless sense of personal style in it. Like, I always looked at fashion as being removed from athletics, right? Like, I always looked at my workout wear versus my fashion, you know, what I wear in my personal life as being two separate things. But really, it's the same thing. I mean, yeah, the number one priority with exercise is functionality, but you can still find personal style within that. And if you're somebody who likes fashion, you should. Why not? It makes it more fun. And it also makes you a more, I don't know, just you buy things more thoughtfully as well.

Now back to the episode. Okay, moving on. Early 2000s purses. Okay, an example would be the Chloe Paddington bag. Another example would be the Balenciaga City bag.

27:11Emma Chamberlain:If I were to define this category of bags, they are medium size. They're chaotic. Okay. and by chaotic I mean they have padlocks and reinforced edges in zippers everywhere in tassels in a flap and buckles in studs and they have rounded corners and they're like every it's like busy they're not clean they're not structured they're like early 2000s grunge like if you were to look up like a Paris Hilton photo of her like drunk walking out of a club she might have like a Balenciaga City bag, like, you know, like spilling out of her hand and it's all wrinkled and it's like there's buckles everywhere.

27:58Emma Chamberlain:It's very maximalist, very busy. That's the vibe. Those kinds of purses are back. These are not timeless to me. This is my opinion. This is my opinion. These are not timeless to me. This sort of, I've seen this sort of aesthetic come in and out of style in my life. And we've been witnessing the rise and the fall of various early 2000s trends over the last few years. This is just another one. And what I've noticed about the early 2000s is that a lot of the things that were trending then have a very short shelf life. They did back then and they do now. They come back with a vengeance, but because they're so tacky, and that's sort of the point of it, right?

28:42The point of a lot of the early 2000s trends was that they were tacky. They were over the top.

28:48Emma Chamberlain:They were super detailed and whatever. Like that was the whole point. But the problem with those types of things is that we become fatigued by them quickly. And I think when it comes to something like a bag that you're going to be wearing over and over and over again, and it's a really strong accessory to an outfit, unlike the labubu that's hyper specific and you can clip it onto your bag or whatever, and it's a tiny little detail. The bag itself is a larger piece. Do you know what I mean? And I don't know. I think a bag is one of the key accessories of an outfit that shapes the vibe and the feeling and the shape and the structure of everything.

29:27And like what these early 2000s

29:30Emma Chamberlain:chaotic bags bring to the table to me is a very specific aesthetic that ends up looking tacky very soon after it comes back into the zeitgeist. It just, I don't know. It just doesn't, it doesn't feel timeless to me. And some people might disagree with me. Like, I don't know. The older I get and the more I analyze fashion just as a hobby for funsies, I realized that if you want to, you can pull anything off. That's the end of the story. So like, if something's truly timeless to you, then it is. But like, to me, I don't know. I see these sorts of early 2000s bags. And I'm like, they're exhausting to look at.

30:16And for brief moments in time, they make sense and they work and they're cool and everybody's loving them.

30:22Emma Chamberlain:But they go out of style very quickly and in a way that is visceral and not good. Like you see a bag like that and you're like, hello, no thanks. I don't know though. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm wrong about that one. I'm like thinking about it more and I'm like, I guess I could see it styled.

30:41Emma Chamberlain:No, I'm going to stick with my answer. Okay, moving on. Bubble skirts. This is an interesting trend because it's very subtle. Like, I don't know, bubble skirts, they come in so many different shapes and sizes. And it is a unique silhouette, though, that I haven't seen prior to now in my life, I don't think. Like, I don't remember a time when bubble skirts have been in before now. And I might have been too young, or maybe I just missed it for whatever reason, if I was in middle school or high school and it was trendy in like the fashion world, but it wasn't trendy in my middle school or my high school, which not a lot was trendy in those places other than Ugg boots and Lululemon leggings and Hollister graphic tees.

31:23Emma Chamberlain:Like, you know, so I don't know, maybe I missed it, but I actually think they're quite wonderful. They're very understated. I mean, basically what makes a bubble skirt a bubble skirt is that it's, you know, usually tight at the top and then it sort of flares out a little bit in one way or another. And then it's tight again at the bottom, creating sort of a bubble shape. Okay, cute. I've seen them short, like really short little micro little bubble skirts. Those are particularly popular right now. And then I've also seen long ones that, you know, go down to the knees or even perhaps the ankles.

31:55Emma Chamberlain:I actually think bubble skirts are timeless, to be honest. I think interesting silhouettes like that can always be styled in modern new ways. Like by just, you could take a bubble skirt and, you know, by changing up what's on top, you can give it a brand new fresh feeling. To me, even though it is a really specific silhouette and, you know, it's not necessarily, no, you know what, it is kind of classic. Maybe that's why I feel like it's timeless. Because if you were to go back and like look at historical fashion images from when, you know, people first started wearing gowns and dresses and skirts and these things.

32:36Emma Chamberlain:There was a lot of dramatic silhouettes like that. Yeah. The bubble skirt, in one way or another, that shape has existed for a long time. And so that might be why I feel like this is like a staple piece. Like you could actually do whatever you wanted with it. It is particularly trendy right now, but I don't think it's ever going to be out. Like if you were to buy a bubble skirt now, yeah, you'll be in trend now, but in five years, I think you could style it just as well, even if it's not trendy, you know? It's not quite bold enough to be fatiguing and the shape feels timeless. It's not overly exaggerated, but it is, it does have this nice feeling.

33:20Emma Chamberlain:I don't know. I'm going to say timeless on the bubble skirt. Next, we have bloomers, which are either shorts or capris that almost are like a bubble skirt, honestly, but in short or capri form. Tight on the top, a bit of volume below it, you know, on the butt and on the leg, a little bit of volume spaced from the skin, right? And then tight again at the bottom. And bloomers were originally designed to be more comfortable undergarments a long, long, long time ago. They're usually in a cottony material. and yeah, they're basically just vintage underwear, like what underwear used to be before we got like seamless skims.

34:01Emma Chamberlain:You know what I mean? I'm actually going to go out on a limb here and say that these are also timeless. Even though they used to be worn as undergarments and now they're being worn above clothes, I think little simple, cottony, little bubbly, little, you can always find a way to make that work. You know, usually bloomers are not in particularly bright colors. They don't have particularly bright patterns. You know, if you were to buy a pair of bloomers that have like a really loud polka dot pattern, that might feel a little bit too of the moment. That might feel a little bit too right now. And like in two years, it might feel like that was like really a moment in time.

34:42Emma Chamberlain:But like a plain pair of like light blue little bloomer shorts or like a little white pair of cottony little bloomer capris tight at the top, tight at the bottom, loose in the middle. Like you can always find a way to make that work. And just by changing what you wear them with, I think you can create a completely brand new vibe that could fit any era. I don't know. I'm going to go ahead and say timeless on this as well. This is interesting. I normally say everything's trendy. Like I normally sit down and I'm like time for trendy or timeless where Emma just says everything's trendy and nobody should participate in anything because it's all trendy and it will all be cringe tomorrow.

35:21Emma Chamberlain:But one of two things are happening or maybe a combination of both. Either number one, I'm growing in realizing that anything can be timeless if you want it to be. And I think that that's true and I think that's starting to happen. Or number two, timeless things are trending, which I think is also happening. So maybe it is a combination of both. But I think we're all so fatigued from the micro trends of it all that I think everybody's just gravitating towards things that we'll probably never get sick of. That sort of seems to be what's happening. Like, even the labubu, I can't really say is fully trendy.

36:00Like, I think there actually is something weirdly timeless about the labubu.

36:03Emma Chamberlain:Like, so I don't know, something weird's happening. Okay, next, we have mesh flats. You've seen them. I know you have. Flat little shoes, either like a Mary Jane or like a little ballet flat shape with a mesh material. You can see the toes, okay? These are a huge trend right now, and they have been for maybe even a year now. They're everywhere. I see them everywhere. Can I be honest? I can't believe I'm saying this again. I want to say something's trendy today, but for some reason, everything's timeless today for the most part. I think the mesh flats are actually kind of timeless. They're definitely oversaturated right now to the point where it's definitely already starting to lose a bit of its allure, right?

36:54Emma Chamberlain:We've seen so many mesh flats, but they're cool and they are pretty simple and versatile. and they can be styled so many different ways and they can take on so many different vibes and energies. I don't know. They are timeless. Listen, is it more timeless to get like a classic pair of simple, smooth flats? Yes. Like let's say you want to get a red pair of flat shoes, right, and you have two options. You have a classic red ballet-shaped flat, super simple not even a ballet flat no bow on it just like a simple flat okay that's one option and then the other option is a red mesh Mary Jane style flat what do I think the more timeless option is what do I think the more versatile option is the simple flat for sure you know what do I think you're gonna enjoy for longer probably the more simple flat however there is a chance that if you get the mesh ones, you might wear them to death because they are kind of, they're like the perfect balance of having a trendy detail, but that could be pulled off for years to come.

38:10It sort of reminds me of like the tabby shoe, right? Like tabbies are really trendy right now. They've been really trendy for a while now. They're probably hitting their peak right now, but a tabby is a classic shoe. Like there are going to be people wearing tabbies indefinitely. There's going to be people keeping that up because to me, a tabby actually is timeless. I think there was a time in my life when I said the tabbies were trendy and I completely take that back. And I, and I was wrong. Um, cause once I learned more about them and I got a few pairs myself and realized how much I love the way that they look and how much I love the way that they feel, they've become timeless to me.

38:51I think the mesh flat has like a similar effect where it's like, yes, it is a stylized specific sort of shoe. And yes, it is particularly trendy and maybe even oversaturated right now. But because it's so versatile, I don't know. I think they're timeless.

39:10Emma Chamberlain:Moving on to another shoe. Let's discuss flip-flop heels, okay? I'm talking about a flip-flop with a little kitten heel. Here I go again. Here I fucking go again. Timeless. Sorry, I really believe that. I think flip-flops in general are pretty timeless. I mean, I think flip-flops can sometimes veer off in a direction of trendy. Like platform shoes to me are like the epitome of a timeless shoe. I mean, so I didn't mean to say that. Cut that. Oh my God. Editor, cut that. I meant, I meant, I meant trendy, trendy, trendy, trendy. Platform shoes are the epitome of a trendy shoe. They come in in a big way and then they are so chuggy and they're so out Like I was so into platform shoes for a few years and then one day I woke up and was like, oh No, this is not working anymore.

40:06This looks silly to me now now that the trend is over these look goofy, you know Whereas like a little flip-flop with a kidney heel That's not a platform flip-flop a platform flip-flop will look goofy a little kidney heel flip-flop. That's forever, baby That's forever That is forever It's understated. It's simple. It's minimal.

40:26Emma Chamberlain:If you buy a pair of those, you'll be wearing them for the next 10 years if one of the heels doesn't break off. You know what I mean? Okay, next. We have scarves used in different ways. Okay, I'll give you a few examples. Scarves tied onto purses in bags. Scarves used as a top, tied around a top. A scarf tied around a skirt. A scarf tied around a belt loop. scarves used as a accessory. I tend to feel like scarves are a bit trendy in this way. And here's why. Okay. I've seen this trend come in and out a few times in my lifetime, and it seems to come in in a big way and everyone's really excited about the scarf.

41:13And then everyone really hates it and it does not look cute anymore. However, I do think that if you buy the right types of scarves. You know what the problem is with scarves? When they come in and they become trendy, there's very specific patterns that tend to trend when they come into style. And I think those specific patterns are the problem. Okay, not the scarf itself, but the fact that when scarves become trendy, the scarves that you find at trendy stores are very specific trendy patterns that soon will go out of style. Do you see what I'm saying? We become fatigued with the patterns, not as much with the scarves themselves.

41:54I think if you were to go and you were to buy a timeless pattern, maybe a simple color, like just like a red scarf or, you know, a simple pattern, perhaps stripes or polka dots or maybe like a plaid or something, you know, I think using a scarf as an accessory can absolutely be timeless. But I think the way that they tend to trend is very trendy. You know, the patterns are very trendy.

42:19Emma Chamberlain:Like I want to Google right now, trendy scarf accessory and see what exact patterns are trending right now. Okay. I'm Googling it. Also, by the way, I'm talking about silk scarves. Did I say that? I hope I did. Cause if I didn't, I will regret it. Okay. When I look up trendy silk scarves on Pinterest, uh, I see a lot of floral patterns. I see one that has some cherries on it, which is a very specific, like trendy sort of graphic, like cherries, strawberries, stuff like that. For home decor, I think it's timeless, but for clothing, for some reason, I don't think it's timeless. Don't ask me my logic.

42:58Not everything I say makes sense, even to me. But I think like in home decor, like little fruit decals and stuff in the kitchen, it's like, that makes sense. It's thematic. You're like decorating your kitchen with, you know, whatever. Or if you like to have a nature vibe in your home, like it just makes more sense to me. But having like a big cherry or like a big strawberry pattern that is more trendy, like we tend to get sick of that because again, it gets fatiguing. Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of florals. I'm seeing some like wavy, like vintage, like super vintage looking retro style silk scarves.

43:35Like I think if you were to get a classic pattern, a simple pattern, or even just a pattern that like specifically matches your style, I think it has the potential to be timeless. But I just think a lot of the hyper specific, hyper trendy patterns tends to be the problem. But I think the scarf itself is a timeless thing. Does that make sense?

44:00Emma Chamberlain:moving on to bandanas tied around the head and the neck and stuff like that like a lot of people I've been seeing a lot of people like you know wearing their hair and like cute little braids and tying a little bandana in a triangle around their hair you know what I think a classic bandana particularly a red one I mean that's kind of timeless I think bandanas are pretty timeless I will say though, it's like when it comes to a bandana, in order for it to look good, I like, it's hard to find a bandana that's not like really cheap and feels plasticky. That tends to be my issue with bandanas. Like if you were to order one online right now, just kind of on a whim, like if you were to just be like red bandana and find the first one that, you know, pops up and you were to order it and you weren't there to touch it, it would probably show up feeling like plastic because they tend to be sort of like a costume-esque product.

44:54However, if you were to find a nice one that's made out of cotton, not like plastic, polyester,

45:01Emma Chamberlain:whatever the fuck they're making it out of. I think when it's a nicely made one, I think pretty timeless. It's so funny though, because if you go to a vintage store nowadays and you find a bandana that you like, it's probably going to be$70 for like a nice one that's worn in high quality material. They're jacking the prices up on the bandanas right now, I'll tell you. Like, it's really wild. But I think ultimately timeless. Again, when am I going to say something's trendy? I just think the bandana is a classic pattern. It goes, it's, here's what's trendy. I'll tell you what's trendy. A bandana itself tied around the hair or tied around the neck or tied around, you know, a belt loop or something.

45:40Like, sure, that's timeless. What's trendy is when other clothing pieces have bandana patterned print on it, okay?

45:49Emma Chamberlain:I'm talking about like getting a skirt with a bandana pattern on it, getting a tank top with it. No, that is trendy because it's such a specific pattern for such a specific product. And when you put it on something else, it's like such a specific, we get fatigued by it easier. It's so weird how this stuff is, but I don't know. Okay, moving on to suede. Apparently suede as a whole is trending. Suede boots, suede jackets, you know, suede pants, suede. I'm not a big fan of suede, to be honest. It tends to look, it doesn't look very nice. You can spend a lot of money on a suede product and it will look cheap.

46:34It looks the same as like, it looks, I don't know how to explain it. And listen, I'm all about finding clothes that are inexpensive, you know, buying things secondhand, whatever. Like I'm not shitting on things, but like when you're wearing clothing, we want our clothing to look sharp and elegant. And there's something about suede that like doesn't look nice to me. Does that make sense? And it's not a price thing because if there were, let's say there's a suede jacket and a shiny leather jacket, okay, right next to each other. The shiny leather jacket's going to look nicer and they're going to be the same price, whether it's real leather or faux doesn't matter they're going to be the same price it's just a finish and for some reason the finish of suede to me doesn't look very nice almost ever there's rare occasions where it works but it's very rare and I've seen suede come and go in my lifetime

47:26Emma Chamberlain:it rarely stands the test of time I've almost never seen it stand the test of time and I've had a few suede pieces in my collection over the years like I even though I don't love suede it's made its way into my collection when I was a shopping addict, I would find things that I liked that were suede. And it like, you know, my like for that particular item overrode my dislike for the material as a whole. But the truth is, I actually don't think suede is timeless. I think it tends to fit into very particular aesthetics. And it tends to come into fashion, into the zeitgeist with a very hyper-specific trend.

48:09And it's not an aesthetically pleasing enough material to like work outside of hyper-specific trends. Like you'll see somebody wearing like a very sort of, I don't know, boho-esque sort of outfit. They're wearing like a lacy sort of dress with like a suede jacket with fringe. And it's like this whole vibe, you know what I mean? Or you might see somebody wearing like a pair of suede boots with like, I don't know, like some 70s pants and like, but that's all very stylized. If you were to then want to wear that fringe suede jacket with like some simple jeans, it might be like, this is too loud. And like, I don't know, maybe it works for some people.

48:53I just like, it doesn't, it feels very much of a moment to me, suede, usually. Can you find some timeless suede pieces? Sure. Like if you get a really simple suede piece. You know, I think suede as a category is broad enough that like you can find timeless stuff within it. But I think for the most part, it is trendy. It's sort of like the silk scarf of it all. You know, it's like in itself, it's timeless. It's too broad of a category to be trendy, but it tends to present itself in very trendy ways. Okay, next. This is a hyper-specific micro-trend. The monogrammed L.L. Bean boat tote bag. Okay?

49:34We've all seen them.

49:36Emma Chamberlain:They're not just sold by L.L. Bean. You can find them everywhere. I actually have one of, or I have two of these actually. I have a big one and a small one. They're both cream base with red details. They're basically nautical tote bags made out of thick canvas. They're usually cream with a colored reinforcement. So like on the bottom, there's reinforcements that are say, in my case, red, and then the straps and the handles are red. And then there's usually some sort of monogramming on it in some sort of matching text, in my case, red. And mine say Miss Emma on them. And I absolutely love them.

50:13I think these tote bags are absolutely timeless.

50:17Emma Chamberlain:Once again, sorry, here I go again, timeless. They're incredibly functional bags. the design is simple. It's classic. It's been around for a long time. They always look chic and cool. I always like them. I've seen them throughout my life. There's never been a moment in my life where I haven't been around some sort of monogrammed L.L. Bean tote bag. Like whether I was on vacation in the summer as a 10-year-old and everybody had them on the beach or now when I'm walking around New York City and every single girly pop, including me, is carrying around an L.L. Bean tote bag with a monogram. Like, it's really trendy in the zeitgeist right now with Gen Z and like with young people.

50:59But it's like, it's always been a thing. And that's for a reason. It's a really, really great shape of a tote bag. The L.L. Bean ones in particular are super thick canvas.

51:09Emma Chamberlain:Almost too thick sometimes, though, I will say. Like it's like, this is really thick and stiff, but it's going to last forever. I mean, they were apparently created, I read this yesterday online, that they were created to carry around big ice blocks and stuff for some sort of nautical purpose. And so they're made with this super thick material, they'll last forever. And that's another reason why they're timeless. You're going to have yours forever. And I think the customizable element also makes it really timeless. Like you can choose your color and what it says on it. And it's personalized to you.

51:40And there's something about that that makes you care about it more, which also makes it more timeless.

51:46Emma Chamberlain:Okay, moving on to oval glasses. I'm actually wearing them right now. I'm wearing oval glasses. Here's the thing. To me, the oval glass shape is so generic and so, like, standard. Like, it's existed for so many bazillions of years. Not actually what you get what I mean. Like it's been an option for so long and people have been wearing them for so long. And yes, they're particularly trendy right now, but they've been around for so long and it's such a standard glasses shape and they're incredibly functional. I'm going to say timeless again, again, God, timeless. I actually think that these are particularly timeless, like more timeless than some of the other things that I called timeless today, like definitely more timeless than the labubu.

52:43You know what I mean? Classic shape been around forever. It's like a square frame. You know, if you're watching the video version episode of this, I have a square, I'm holding up a square frame. It's the same thing. Like, you know, a square frame of like, you can't go wrong with that. That'll never go out of style. You know, that shape might have a moment every once in a while. But if you were to look at pictures in a history book, you'll find pictures of people wearing both and it never looks out of place. It just looks like a basic accessory because that's exactly what it is. You know, it was popularized recently due to it being on the runway and stuff like that, but it's existed forever since the inception of glasses, I imagine.

53:24So it's like, I don't know. Whereas like a super early 2000s, like futuristic, shield-like, wiry, ombre, super stylized frame. Like that's not timeless to me. That's trendy because it's so specific. And it's also so loud. And it's also not versatile. Like you can only wear those when you're wearing like a very maximalist Y2K sort of outfit. Outside of that, it's harder to style them.

53:53Emma Chamberlain:They just, they don't, they're very hyper specific. Moving on to capris. I'm not going going to talk about capris for very long because actually I was looking at the clothing items that I was talking about in my last few trendy or timeless episodes and I already mentioned capris and I don't remember what I said. I might have said that they were trendy. Well, whatever I said, erase it. They're timeless. I've grown to become obsessed with capris. And listen, I might eat my words in two years. But I've come to the conclusion that a simple pair of capris is an incredible building block for an outfit.

54:32And you can do a bazillion, trillion, million, quadrillion different things with them. I do think that some of the capris right now are trendy. Like I've seen, you know, capris in like trendy patterns, you know, with like massive belts or with like studs on them or with like, you know, decals or whatever, like that type of stuff is hit or miss when it comes to trendy or timeless. Okay. It's a case by case basis. But I would say capris is a category of pant timeless and whatever I said before, erase it. Or if I said that they're timeless, then keep it. But I don't remember what I said and I'm scared.

55:05So I'm, I'm pretending as though I said something negative about them. And last but not least, we have thin eyebrows. I feel like I've talked about thin eyebrows before, like plucking the eyebrows to be super thin or shaving the eyebrows and drawing in super thin. I think I've talked about this before, but I can't remember. So we're going to talk about it again. This is definitely trendy and it's a high risk one at that. If you pluck all your eyebrows out, like I can't tell you, I mean, we've all heard the stories of people who plucked their eyebrows super thin in the nineties and then their eyebrows never grew back the same.

55:39You have to be dedicated to the thin eyebrow. This needs to be your aesthetic. Otherwise, it is a trend that you will regret. I actually enjoy the thin eyebrow trend. I like how it looks. I think it looks really cool. And I think it can really add to a vibe. You know, I appreciate it deeply. But it is trendy. It's not always in style. And it's a very specific look that we can become sick of. Therefore, participating in it is high risk. And so I personally am not participating in the thin eyebrow trend. In fact, I'm participating in the opposite, where my eyebrows are completely unplucked, bushy nightmares.

56:19And every once in a while, I get comments on Instagram photos or YouTube videos or whatever being like, why does this poor girl not know how to groom her eyebrows. Excuse me. It's intentional. I like the natural look, but I also like the thin look. It's just not, it's like you can't just dabble in it. It's like tattoos. Like it's kind of a permanent

56:41Emma Chamberlain:decision potentially. I do think it's trendy. It does come in and out of style. I've seen it happen in my life, but I do think that if it matches your specific aesthetic, which for some people it definitely does, maybe it makes sense to participate. If it's like a vibe that you see yourself upholding for the next 10 years. But I would say it's risky even then because it does go out of style and the bushy natural brow comes back in and then the super sharp, you know, structured brow comes back in. It's like, I don't know. It's definitely eyebrows are trendy. And I think it's important to figure out what you like because that's it's a somewhat permanent decision at times.

57:23Emma Chamberlain:You know what I mean? If you're going to be plucking them or like shaving them off and drawing them in. Wait, that's it. Those are all my trends. This was so fun for me and I hope it was fun for you. And if it was, well, I'll probably do another Trendier Timeless episode at some point. I have to wait for more trends to pop up. So give me six months to a year, but I will be doing another one at some point. If you enjoyed this, you can go listen to my other Trendier Timeless episodes. I have quite a few up. You can just look up Trendier Timeless Anything goes and they'll all come up. If you enjoyed this episode, new episodes every Thursday and Sunday, watch on YouTube and Spotify, listen anywhere.

57:57We can hang out whenever you want. And even if there's not a new episode, have no fear because I've made a lot of episodes of anything goes in my life. And so there's a lot to listen to.

58:06Emma Chamberlain:Anything goes on social media at anything goes I'm on social media and on the internet at Emma Chamberlain and my coffee company is in the world and on the internet at Chamberlain coffee. I love you all. I appreciate you all. It's always a joy. to get to hang out. And I'll talk to you in a few days. I love you all.

58:27And I encourage you to be critical of the trends. Although apparently not right now, because everything's timeless, question mark. Maybe there's something wrong with me. I'm scared. Anyway, okay, talk to you later.
