There's no doubt about it, this year has changed our shopping habits and the way we dress, probably forever. Some of us have embraced loungewear (and Netflix Christmas film binging), while others have taken a slower approach to fashion by investing in more sustainable brands.
Either way the top searches of the year have come in, courtesy of shopping app LIKEtoKNOW.it, and the results are fascinating. It seems like more than one trend has been inspired by our favourite shows, from Normal People to Emily in Paris.
