In theory, there is no such thing as ugly clothing. As far as I'm concerned, styling is all about expressing one's individuality. How do we know which items are in style and which are not? The new "weird girl aesthetic" raises this question.

When a tweet shared photos of women dressed in a variety of unique outfits with mismatched patterns, childlike color combinations and fuzzy accessories, it went viral. Is it anti-trend? No one wants to look bad, but are people trying too hard to achieve this goal? This only works on Bella Hadid?" it read. In each of the following questions, the answer is "no," and I'll explain why.

As a result of Bella Hadid's street style, fashion has taken notice. Without the help of a stylist, she puts together her coffee-run outfits, trap the cat which typically include re-worn pieces, a lot of layers, and cutesy hair accessories. Hadid hasn't had a full-time stylist in two years, which is unusual for an A-lister.

"The first thing I ask myself every morning before I leave the house is, 'Does this make me happy?'" Does this suit me and am I happy with the way it looks?" she recently asked the Wall Street Journal. And that's why the "weird girl aesthetic" is so popular.

The #OOTD is a kaleidoscope of bright patterns, mixed textiles, and playful accessories like chunky rings and fuzzy bags that are thrown together haphazardly. Mismatched socks and cartoon heart motifs may seem strange to some people, but to others, they are the epitome of fashion. That's why it's so wonderful.

There's nothing new about dressing in a way that's both quirky and inventive. It has its roots in the Harajuku district of Tokyo's late 1990s and early 2000s street style. In the 1980s, Harajuku became a popular shopping destination for teenagers and street performers who wore unique and expressive outfits in an effort to express themselves.

Harajuku fashion was popularized by Fruits Magazine photographs as a youth-led rejection of social norms. And there was plenty of room for endless creativity and variety thanks to the variety of subcultures within the rebellious fashion movement.
