It might only be Apr, but it’s already apparent which trends have been (and are set to) dominate our Instagram feeds this year. From delicate ruffles to high-shine dewy skin, we’ve tracked down the best and brightest Instagram fashion and beauty trends of 2019 so far! And what’s best, you don’t have to break the bank to recreate these looks at home. So keep reading to get ‘gram ready!

Neon Trend



Loved by Instagram royalty Kendall Jenner herself, the neon trend has been making its way from clothes to our makeup and manis! The electric hues have been making their rounds online since 2018 but have showed no signs of going anywhere anytime soon. Of course, this trend isn’t for the faint of heart. And if you’d like to ease your way into it instead, we suggest taking a cue from Kendall herself and trying the shades out as a subtle liner in your next beauty look before investing in some apparel pieces!

Dewy Dumpling Skin



Move over Glass Skin, there’s a new contender in town. Cutely coined “dewy dumpling” skin, this beauty look is about taking your natural radiant glow way up a notch. Created by Instagram’s hottest makeup artist of the moment, Nam Vo, the look is all about emphasising that dewy highlight. For this, you’ll need a smooth and even base. Start with a mask that brightens the skin and tightens the pores. Before going in with your foundation, apply a strobing luminizer to the high points of your face--i.e. your cheekbones, nose bridge and cupid’s bow--to achieve a radiant and dewy glow from within. We suggest finishing the look off by using a cream contour just to add dimension to your face ever so slightly.

Hair Clips



I’m sure this trend needs no introduction--it’s literally all over Instagram. From pearl clasps to acrylic clips, the hair clip trend is the cute and quirky accessory we just can’t seem to get enough of. To really let these pretty pins shine, wear your hair in a straight, slicked-back do. To achieve this, all you need to do is apply gel through the lengths of your hair before going in with your hair straightener. Flick your ends outwards to achieve a simple yet chic retro look before you secure your pins in place!

Ruffle Details



With the resurgence of delicate, feminine detailing, it’s not a surprise that ruffles have made its comeback on Instagram as well. We particularly love seeing ruffles in collar and sleeve details, but can’t deny the universally-flattering shape it brings to dresses and skirts. This trend is perfect office-appropriate wear as well, so you can look photo-ready all week long!
