In our view there is already a ton of coverage of the trends that ivory tower professors and billionaire fund managers are seeing. What’s the edge in hearing the billionaire consensus view over and over again?
The edge comes from hearing new perspectives and new information like from the wedding planner who has worked with hundreds of couples during the pandemic and has noticed that couples are allocating significantly more of their wedding budgets on “small details” like personalized neon signs and eco-friendly customized digital invitations rather than paper invites. Or the accountant seeing how there’s a huge uptick in ecommerce clients generating revenue from in person popups.
Below, you’ll find some of the most thoughtful entrepreneurs and creatives in across various industries and markets sharing the trends they are seeing.

Biggest trends I am seeing is the use of AI. I am not in favor of this trend as a Photographer. I do feel that as AI slowly takes over Photographers might become reliant on automated process and decline in using their traditional editing skills; thus, loss of their skills and craftmanship. I also feel that reliance on AI for editing and composition could hinder a let’s say a beginner Photographer’s ability to develop their own style. I do also see a lot of ethical concerns with the use of AI on Photography. -deceptive or misleading visual contents and copy rights issues. Read more>>

However, as we’ve seen before there are always revivals of trends. I think it’s important to not feel like you always need to follow trends and what’s popular. Wear what makes you happy and what makes you feel good. Fashion is supposed to be fun, not stressful in trying to keep up. Read more>>

Some of the newest trends that are lash clusters ! There has always been some type of “ fake “ lash around , like falsies but now there’s clusters and they come in many different styles . I think this trend is cool and convenient for the clients who don’t have the time to lay on a bed for 2-3 hours or on a tighter budget as lash extensions aren’t the cheapest thing on the market . I personally don’t think clusters will make lash extensions disappear! There’s people like me who take those appointments as personal time or cannot apply a falsie to save my life . I know a lot of lash artist were starting to get intimidated with this trend but the truth is there has always been the DIY clients and clients who would rather pay someone else to perform the service and that’s not changing . If anything this gives me the chance to work on my styles to help me stand out more ! Read more>>
