Granted, a little less screen time is pretty desirable during an age in which so many of us are totally glued to our phones. However, in for a penny, in for a pound – you may as well embrace your blue light obsession and receive your fashion fix all in one fell swoop.
One key benefit to arise from the social media evolution is shopping. Buying coveted garments has never been so easy thanks to marketplaces going meta.
Fashion apps ensure your next fabulous 'fit is a mere click away. Whether commuting to work, enjoying a quick coffee break or tucked up in bed at home, there's zero need to schlep to Westfield in the name of fashion when your iPhone is all you need.
The fashion world is truly your oyster. Designer fiends can enjoy endless hours spent browsing Net-A-Porter or MyTheresa. Vintage enthusiasts can get lost in all Vestiaire has to offer, from 00s Fendi baguettes to Gucci kitten heels. Thrifters can bag a bargain on Vinted or eBay. There's an app for all - it's just a case of knowing which one to download.
