Going up

Isaac Newton We’re sure he would be thrilled to know he’d helped inspire Lucky Blue Smith and Stormi Bree’s baby name. Fingers crossed Gravity doesn’t have too bad a time at school.

Adidas Adilette velvet pool sliders The aesthetic mid-point between Liberace and Mark Zuckerberg. Not to be worn near water, obviously.

Shell necklaces See the Prada AW17 catwalk, as well as your wardrobe during that trip to the French seaside, aged 17, for details. This is souvenir chic at its beachy best.

Flight Of The Navigator The 1986 film has a liquid-looking metallic spaceship remarkably like the one in the new Gucci ad. Time for a rewatch.

Acne emoji.

The emoji with a line for a mouth Acne has dedicated a whole collection to this guy. Find it on sweatshirts, shorts and polo shirts – and, of course, on your keyboard.

whole fresh pineapple

Slicked-back ponytails Instead, go with hair wisps, face-framing bits of hair. Flattering, fun, the styling tic at Zara for AW17, and on Alexa, too.

Sans serif We have reached the peak, appaz. Outdoor Voices, Airbnb and Missguided, you’ve been warned.

Mid-blue On both Hadid sisters, at Ikea, fast-tracking its way to being as ubiquitous as millennial pink.

Plandid Term coined by Man Repeller to describe the Instagram trend for planned candid selfies – as in, posed pictures of you taken by someone else. Genius word, depressing thing.

Pineapples The overplayed symbol of summer. We’re over it. Move on to the Matisse-approved Monstera deliciosa, or the cheese plant to you and me.
