o you miss the late night “gala” with friends? Or the smell of popcorn inside the cinemas? It’s been 2 years since Covid-19 struck the world. From a 2-hour commute to a second of logging-in for work. The virus really knows how to spread positivity in the things we considered negative in the past. It instantly affected us in certain ways. It may be from the way we communicate to others, the way we push ourselves to wake up in the mornings, and the way we choose our clothes everyday.
During the lockdowns, most of us stayed isolated inside our homes depriving us from the life we supposedly living outside. Have you attended a meeting that required you to wear something formal but worn pajamas below? We all know we are guilty of that but it also presents how we progress and adapt to the changing times with Covid-19 by our side. We try to make ourselves comfortable especially when we’re always inside our houses doing work, thus changing the way we choose our clothing. Now, we tend to wear simpler and comfortable clothes inside our homes that also influence the outfits we wear when there’s a need to go out. Gone are the days where we spend long periods of hours picking the perfect outfit for date nights ‘cause we don’t spend much time outside these days. If you’re following David Guison, Brent Manalo, Bella Racelis and other local influencers where they share their comfy, minimal and neutral fits in their Instagram accounts then you know what “fits” fits the trend . This is the so-called “quarantine fashion” that most of us do everytime we need to run some errands these days. Let’s round up the quarantine fashion statements that made everyone feel comfortable, free, and themselves most especially in these hard times. Here are 7 of the most popular fashion styles and trends that were born while we are inside our homes:

Masks-up! Masks are the most essential thing that we need whenever we are going outside to protect ourselves and others. At first it may seem a nuisance because wearing masks makes it harder for us to breathe and it covers up our faces. But fashion rides with the changing times. Local brands like Not Cool the Label have been producing their line of mask designs protecting people from COVID-19 with style. Local personalities like Heart Evangelista also shared her hacks in making her masks fit her OOTDs. Did you also notice that wearing masks makes you look more attractive? Researchers at Cardiff University said that they were surprised to find that obscuring half of peoples’ faces made them look more appealing. So mask up to protect and for a much intriguing look!

STY Be Minimal Are you the type of person who tends to over-dress? Well, if you’re good at mixing and matching your clothes then good. With these hard times, choosing clothes that are full of patterns and prints can be time consuming. If you’re looking out in your closet and wondering how to be minimal in choosing clothes, well go back to the basics. Plains will be your best friend. Having a minimal and basic closet can make you easily style yourself because you can easily pair them with one another. Not crowding yourself with different paraphernalias in your body will definitely highlight your features more for a simple yet dashing look.

Monochrome Monochrome came from two words “mono” means one and “chrome’ means color. Having a monochromatic outfit requires you to select garments of the same color but in different tones and shades. No matter what shades of brown you pair with brown, you will look stylish because monochromatic colors compliment each other, making you decide more quickly when picking for your clothes.
