The only rule of YOLO (you only live once) style is that there are no rules. Yes, I'm bringing YOLO back, and this time, it's back in style. I'm talking about trying a wacky new trend because… YOLO. You want to leave the house with no trousers? Go ahead. Thinking of wearing a party dress to work? Do it! Clash colours, wear head-to-toe tie-dye, or pair silky pyjamas with feather mules and a baseball cap. It's the 2019 mantra you need to say forget the rules and wear whatever you want. Why not? You only live once.
Think everyone from Carrie Bradshaw to Tiffany Hsu to our very own readers. Scrolling through Instagram lately made me realise so many of our favourite fashion people are breaking fashion rules and owning it. Keep scrolling for all of the YOLO inspiration from those who wear exactly what they please, when they please, and seize the day in style.
Style Notes: Love a trend? Embrace it head-to-toe like Tiffany did with animal print.
Style Notes: Print-clashing to the max? Yes, please.
Style Notes: Matching your hemlines is too much hassle, so just don't do it.
Style Notes: It's time the evening gowns of the world saw the light of day.
Style Notes: If you feel like wearing tie-dye with a plaid skirt and massive tee on top, do it.
Style Notes: Try not one but two new-season trends at once. In this case, green and animal print.
Style Notes: Prada flame heels are YOLO for so many reasons.
Style Notes: Don't just match your eye shadow to your outfits; make it the third shade of green you're wearing.
Style Notes: Try something 100 times too big for you just because it's fun.
Style Notes: Sequins! Saks Potts tights! Penny loafers! Oh my!
Style Notes: Leather shorts and knee-high boots for the win.
Style Notes: Why wear one bright colour when you can wear two at the same time?
Style Notes: Bought something vintage that's not your typical style? Wear it!
Style Notes: Don't get dressed in the morning when your pyjamas are this good. You only live once.
