Assigned male at birth, Stone knew from the age of two that she “wanted a vagina”, and by the time she was eight, she had fully transitioned within the family. In 2013, she became the youngest person in Australia to be granted hormone blockers at the age of 10. That was merely the start of her historic fight for transgender rights that has captured the attention of Australian media, politicians and the trans community.
In the past month, I’ve found myself walking the streets of New York, London, and Paris. They’re considered fashion capitals for a reason—they always know what’s ahead of the curve before anyone else does. And while researching them through the online lens may look easy, it can still be tricky to figure out what’s being worn for a social media moment and what’s actually being worn on the streets. Luckily for you, I kept a running list of things I saw everyone wearing. I might have been on vacation, but I couldn’t help it, I was inspired. Since I just got off the plane 48 hours ago, I can share my research with you fresh in mind.
The day that comfortable shoes came back in style was probably one of the happiest days of my life. OK, I’ll admit I’m being a little dramatic, but it really isn’t far from the truth. I love wearing comfortable shoes, whether it’s dad sneakers, strappy sandals (with lots of support), or most recently: clogs. I never thought I would be someone who was into clogs, but the Birkenstock Boston Soft Footbed Clog ($150–$155) completely changed my mind. (The colorway I own is currently sold out, but they’re also available in tons of other colors and styles.)
Biz Sherbert, culture editor at The Digital Fairy, explains that the aesthetic “embraces the undone quality that’s come into fashion with the indie sleaze revival. It also seems to be part of the ‘true–thousands’ trend [a phenomenon described by TikToker Rian Phin which is all about dressing how normal people truly dressed in the ’00s, versus the extreme looks worn by celebrities and those on the fringes of fashion.” The “frazzled English woman” certainly isn’t a Kardashian-Jenner and her uber-refined self, rather Bridget Jones walking around the office in a see-through top that accidentally flashes on camera.
What would you say the rest of your everyday makeup routine looks like?
It’s weird, I always joke about how I wore so much more makeup when I was younger than I do now. Now, I just prefer a more natural [look]. I think we’re all very lucky that what’s in right now is very natural skin and natural makeup. It works in our favor that it’s on trend. I like to do the tinted sunscreen so that I have sort of an even base. The Kosas concealer is literally my favorite—I’m obsessed. I also love the Tower 28 cream blushes and the Chanel cream bronzer.
