Christmas. You're buried in wool, mentally committed to three more months of coats, and somehow every store has decided this is the moment to unveil swimsuits. Linen trousers. Raffia bags. Summer merchandise displayed with the unbothered confidence of July.
Last week, I watched a teenager on TikTok breathlessly explain her "discovery" of low-rise jeans, and I felt my millennial soul leave my body.
