Bro Vests and Designer Dupes

after school weekend edition

Hi friends! Welcome back to After School ✨weekend edition✨, an extra long and extra opinionated youth culture digest for paid subscribers.

ICYMI: When I re-published the back-to-school trends edition on Thursday to make it live for everyone, it reverted to an earlier, basically unintelligible draft. (Thank you Substack...!) The correct one is live here. Sorry again!

School Administration Reminds Female Students Bulletproof Vests Must Cover Midriff bit.ly/3Dqfbgd

This is especially funny because vests are trending for fall. Alright, today we’ll be talking about:

• The shoes everyone’s wearing at fashion week

• The jeans we’re all going to be wearing next season

• The jeans I bought for fall after being influenced on IG

• NYC hot girls’ “Joan Didion babe incarnate”

• Gen Z’s Manolo Blahnik

• The man behind TikTok’s most influential fit account.

• The latest it bag is…fake?

• The single best thing I saw on TikTok the entire internet this week

Plus everything I’m listening to, reading, watching, and buying (including the zit sticker that is saving me from wedding-stress acne) — and so much more!
