Tennis core
Bye-bye ballet core, hello tennis core.
So we’ve all heard about the movie Challengers, right? Challengers has been going viral on TikTok ever since it came out. Not only for the movie itself but the aesthetic combined with it. Elevating the Preppy/chic look to the next level and creating the tennis core. While promoting the movie Zendaya brought out all kinds of preppy looks styled by her stylist Law Roach to the carpets.

Capri’s are back?
Remember when we were young and used to wear those three-quarter pants? Well, get ready because the capri pants are back and better than ever.

Combine it with kitten heels, an oversized (butter yellow) blazer, and some cool glasses, and you’re effortlessly chic! It’s the perfect pair of trousers for the weather nowadays. Not too hot and not too cold. Because the weather in Amsterdam can be quite a bit unpredictable so be prepared with your new beloved capri’s, A love story that deserves a second shot.
