These Are the Must-Follow Brands After Fashion Week

If you’ve also been suffering serious fashion withdrawals in the wake of the end of NYFW — and Fashion Month — we want you to know that we’re here for you. After loving the cool AF streetwear inspo spotted on the streets of Paris, we made sure to follow these up-and-coming models on Instagram. And now, to keep up with our fashion education, we’ve identified 18 Insta-favorite clothing and accessory brands that should fill your feeds so you can stay in the know.

1. Pop and Suki: This celebrity-endorsed line of fashion accessories was created for besties by besties. Model Suki Waterhouse and her BFF IRL, Poppy Jamie, teamed up on this line of customizable handbags, which have already been spotted on celebs including Jaime King and Cara Delevingne.

2. Marion Max: When it comes to Marion Max, think: chic, minimalist-inspired leather handbags and mini-backpacks with hints of Marc Jacobs. The American-born designer, who runs her own fashion line from Bali, describes her designs as, “Classic bags for the wild ones.” Yes, please.

3. Laita from BA to Paris: Laita is the French-girl-approved line filled with romantic and bohemian vibes. The luxury leather goods combine French savoir-faire with traditional Argentinian touches.

4. Eleven Paris: The French fashion line brings us trendy-yet-chic, pop culture-inspired RTW items straight from the streets of Paris. The designs include everything from casual bombers and sassy statement tees — like the FARL M T-Shirt ($58), which stands for “Karl is my Father” — to chic AF fur coats.

5. Liebeskind Berlin: This German fashion brand is your new go-to for chic leather handbags and edgy RTW must-haves. With unique finds that include a leather dress, they totally remind us of an edgy Theory offshoot based out of Berlin.

6. WRSTBHVR: This streetwear brings major attitude to every piece of trend-conscious RTW and accessories. With a collection that includes the “must-have” bomber jacket to the sassiest statement tees ever made, the tongue-in-cheek label takes us back to the days of Kitson, the LA-based stored once loved by the Olsen twins.

7. Orseund Iris: Orseund Iris’ NY-based designs give off the edgy, artsy vibes of the Village. It’s chic, edgy, and totally fashion forward, with everyday basics that belong in a “Model Off Duty” wardrobe.

8. Rarely Official: We love that the Spanish brand boldly makes statements in the name of social justice with their colorful clothing line. Unleash your inner advocate in the Rarely Agender Love Tee ($69) that promotes gender inclusivity, or channel Angelina Jolie by purchasing the philanthropic Rarely Supporting Education Tee ($49), which partnered with the non-profit Blink to donate all proceeds to a school in Malawi.

9. MVMT Watches: A major perk of following MVMT, a collection of minimalist, round-faced watches for men and women, are the wanderlust-inspired photos that will fill your Insta-feeds thanks to their innovative social media-based business model. Founded in 2013 by two college roommates, the line of direct-to-consumer watches — and now sunglasses too! — managed to snag a celebrity endorsement by Kylie Jenner.

10. Daniel Wellington: Truth be told, our wristwatch-crush is totally Daniel Wellington, a name in modern fashion that has come to represent his classic, polished watches. The chic designs are the very epitome of “understated elegance,” and we totally have one on our wish list.

11. Kim Mee Hye: The London-based jewelry company features high-end designs that are so painfully chic they belong in Vogue — just like those out-of-this-world ear climbers. The Korean-born Belgium-raised designer describes her collection as “rough meets refined,” like the trendy handcuff bracelets you might’ve glimpsed on celebs.

12. All Blues Official: Emma Watson was spotted in the Hungry Snake Choker ($800), bringing the line of jewelry from Sweden onto our radar. The collection features minimalist styles coupled with sleek, metallic simplicity that brings the Cool-girl vibes we crave.

13. Third Love: Get ready for the ultra-comfortable memory foam bra collection that pioneered half-sizes for cups! Plus, thanks to their amazing “try before you buy” policy, you can even send your unwanted bra back after a 30-day trial period — but trust us; you won’t want to.

14. Alex Mullins: The level of high-end artistry and creative genius that’s brought to you by Alex Mullins is everything. Stocked in luxury stores from Seoul, Korea to Milan, Italy, it features bespoke textiles, creative hemlines, and a handmade-feel that wows.

15. Cats Brothers: Taking statement outerwear to another level, this Vogue Italia-favorite label features an award-winning collection of luxury knitwear and streetwear. With handcrafted touches and slogan prints — including a collection of embroidered emoji tops — the up-and-coming line is the fashion world equivalent of being “lit AF.”

16. Reike Nen: Venture down the rabbit hole to meet Reike Nen, your Seoul-based sole mate with a collection of surrealist footwear. While browsing through the artful snaps of innovative footwear, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for peeks at whimsical Chelsea boots and reinvented kitten heels. *Swoon*

17. Rejina Pyo: This London-based collection by designer Rejina Pyo features elegant womenswear with playful, graphic touches. While fashion-insiders have dubbed Pyo an up-and-coming designer to watch, budding fashionistas might already recognize the label from sites like Net-a-Porter.

18. Calvin Klein: Calvin Klein saw a major comeback this year thanks to their marked social media boost via Kendall Jenner. In addition to their trending collection of plain white tees and intimates, the long-standing fashion brand also shares refreshingly artsy fashion photography on its ever-growing Insta-account. Must follow.

Piper Ratliff's outfits on The White Lotus are exactly what I'm looking to add to my spring and summer wardrobe for 2025. Piper's (Sarah Catherine Hook) style is the perfect mix of bohemian and classy that gives off a certain laidback elegance. And considering I'm a Carolina girl myself (not to mention I'm actually from the beach), I know exactly how to achieve that ultimate vacation vibe. Here are the best sundresses for a White Lotus look...without any of the drama.

Keep reading for the best sundresses to add some Piper Ratliff & White Lotus magic to your summer wardrobe.

How To Get Piper Ratliff's style from 'The White Lotus.'

Fabio Lovino/HBO

Like I mentioned earlier, all of Piper Ratliff's best outfits are a mix of three things: bohemian, classy, and fitted. While the aesthetic is giving girl off duty, her attention to detail means she always looks put together. Because if you ask me, that's the secret to always looking expensive! Her best outfits feature pieces that are fitted in a flattering way, her accessories are intentional, and everything in her outfit is working together. In this case, less is more.

8 Dresses For Summer 2025 Piper Ratliff Would Approve Of

The World Happiness Report for 2025 is officially here, and there's a LOT to take away from it — including the happiest countries around the world that you can visit and live in this year. Whether there's better healthcare, more community, and everything in between, some places really are just happier than others. So, without further ado, these are officially the most happy countries in the world for 2025!

Scroll to see what the happiest countries in the world are for 2025!

When did the 2025 World Happiness Report come out?

Yan Krukau

The 2025 World Happiness Report was aptly released on March 20, the International Day of Happiness!

What does the World Happiness Report measure?

FbyF Studio

Published by the Wellbeing Research Centre at the University of Oxford, the report is based on data from the Gallup World Poll, which surveys individuals in over 140 countries. It ranks nations by happiness using the average life evaluations over the past three years, specifically from 2022 to 2024.

Participants in the survey rate their overall life satisfaction, and these self-assessments determine the rankings. To better understand the factors influencing happiness, the report examines six key indicators: GDP per capita, healthy life expectancy, social support, generosity, personal freedom, and perceptions of corruption.

What rank is USA in World Happiness Report?

Samson Katt

This year, the United States isn't faring so well. This year, our nation dropped to its lowest ranking ever: number 24.

According to Illana Ron-Levey, Gallup's managing director, some of the United States' decline in happiness was "at least partly attributable to Americans younger than age 30 feeling worse about their lives."

Why would some people be less happy in 2025?

Vlada Karpovich

"Today's young people report feeling less supported by friends and family, less free to make life choices, and less optimistic about their living standards," she added.

The good news is that the research shows people are generally kinder than we assume, and recognizing this could boost our happiness and transform how we perceive those around us.

Moreover, there are plenty of extremely happy countries that make desirable travel destinations. Here are some that topped the list in satisfaction.

2025's Happiest Countries In The World

It may not come as a shock that Finland has taken first place for the eighth year in a row. The nation boasts many beneficial policies and initiatives, such as universal health care, as well as a strong social support and education infrastructure. It also has a very low crime rate.

Visitors can enjoy a wide range of activities, too, from soaking up the northern lights under the Arctic sky to hiking in one of Finland's 41 national parks, seeing breathtaking architecture, experiencing Midsummer, a celebration of the summer solstice, and, of course, trying Finnish food.

The runners-up to Finland include Denmark, Iceland, and Sweden in second, third, and fourth place, respectively. Just like Finland, these three countries held onto their global happiness ranking from 2024.

Those hoping to visit Denmark can explore its capital city, Copenhagen, which is rich in museums and other cultural experiences, learn about the fascinating history of Vikings, and dine at Michelin award-winning restaurants.

Rudy Kirchner

Over in Iceland, experience unbelievable 24-hour daylight from mid-May to late July, go whale watching, take a diving tour or guided snorkeling trip at Thingvellir National Park, traverse glaciers, relax in geothermal spas, and walk along beautiful black sand beaches.

Shvets Anna

Finally, in Sweden, there are various vibrant cities to check out, like Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmö. Pop fans must visit the ABBA museum, while culinary connoisseurs need to try authentic Swedish meatballs, and nature lovers can take in all the natural beauty that Sweden is renowned for.

Aside from the Nordic countries, which are dominating the globe in terms of happiness, two Latin American countries also made it into the top 10 for the very first time. Costa Rica ranked at number six, and Mexico at number 10.

Diego Madrigal

If you travel to Costa Rica, you can embark on all kinds of adventures, from hiking and zip-lining to surfing and river rafting.

Bryan Martinez

Or, in Mexico, see the archaeological site Chichen Itza, take a delicious food tour, and sit back on the sand of some stunning beaches.

While I love seeing BookTok-viral novels get turned into movies (hello It Ends With Us!), it's just as fun to see them get turned into TV shows, like Fourth Wing — which is why I had such high hopes for A Court of Thorns and Roses at Hulu...before it got canceled. But believe it or not, the fantasy series cancellation could actually a good thing.

Here's the latest update on the A Court of Thorns and Roses show.

Is the ACOTAR TV show still happening?

KoolShooters/Pexels

A Court of Thorns and Roses TV show has officially be scrapped at Disney’s 20th Television, according to Variety. But ACOTAR fans, don't give up hope! Sarah J. Maas was working with Outlander creator Ronald D. Moore, but now Variety's sources say that after the rights expire at Disney, SJM will be shopping the rights to an ACOTAR show to a different studio and platform.

Honestly, I'm totally here for this because a platform like Prime or Max would provide a different kind of edge and aesthetic to the series that would serve it in a different way. And if we have to wait a little longer for a platform SJM feels most aligned with, I'm willing to stick it out!

On February 27, 2024, Sarah J. Maas reportedly went out to coffee with Margot Robbie. Margot's production company (LuckyChap) has backed projects like I, Tonya, Promising Young Woman, Saltburn. Everything Margot touches turns to gold so I really hope she eventually ends up on the creative team for A Court of Thorns and Roses!

Who plays Rhysand in ACOTAR?

Jared Subia/Unsplash

We never got an official cast announcement, but there are plenty of ACOTAR fancasts.

Hannah Dodd, who plays Francesca in Netflix's hit series Bridgerton, would be the PERFECT addition to the cast, whether she plays Elain or Feyre. And now, I honestly don't know if I'll be satisfied with anyone else ;). "She is ELAIN," one TikTok user comments. "Literally copy paste from my brain Elain."

Deuxmoi (via Marie Claire Australia) revealed some potential actors who could be in the running, like Thomas Doherty, Theo James, and Katherine Langford. Actress Brec Bassigner expressed that she'd love to be considered for a role. "I emailed my team, and I was like, ‘Listen, I don’t care if I have one line. I have to be a part of this,'" she says in an interview with TV Line.

Is ACOTAR getting a 6th book?

Amazon

Yes, ACOTAR book 6 is on the way! We don't know who the new book will focus on, but Sarah J. Maas did say she's excited to bring it to us.

"The next book in that series, I have the ideas and general, vague thoughts. But the nitty gritty of writing and the emotional journeys with the characters — I usually love to go on those journeys with them," she said during an appearance on TODAY.

What is A Court of Thorns and Roses about?

Amazon

A Court of Thorns and Roses follows Feyre, a huntress who's forced to live with the immortal faeries after killing a wolf in the woods. The longer she stays in the Fae's world, the more she begins to love it — and the passionate, alluring faerie Tamlin. But as a dark shadow grows, both their world and Tamlin are put in danger, and it's up to Feyre to save them all.

When did the Court of Thorns and Roses series come out?

Amazon

A Court of Thorns and Roses is the first novel in the series of the same name, and was published in 2015. Sarah J. Maas continued the series with A Court of Mist and Fury in 2016, A Court of Wings and Ruin in 2017, A Court of Frost and Starlight in 2018, and A Court of Silver Flames in 2021.
