Tiny Pretty Things, the ballet-plus-murder drama now on Netflix, is here to fill the leotard-shaped hole left by Spinning Out. Based on the book by Sona Charaipotra and Dhonielle Clayton, the series follows the teenage students of the fictitious Archer School of Ballet, a renowned Chicago dance academy, in the aftermath of the star dancer’s mysterious fall from a roof. Since we’re dealing with Center Stage meets Pretty Little Liars, expect lots of spandex, leotards, leg warmers, etc.
But while sweatsuits and other athleisurewear were big trends to come out of 2020, they are also somewhat expected in a show that sees its young adult protagonists dancing five-plus hours a day, working out, and hanging out in the dorms. Instead, it’s the other styles that have gone big in the last six months — stirrup leggings, tennis skirts, and UGG-like boots — that make Tiny Pretty Things a source of wardrobe inspiration. (If logo tights wouldn’t send the dress code-abiding dance instructors into a fit, they would no doubt make an appearance, too, with this fashion-forward crew.)
Ahead, the trend-forward, comfort-leaning looks we’ll be recreating after watching the series.

Indoor UGG boots
Archer’s newest addition — brought in to take the place of the student who fell off the building — Neveah (played by Kylie Jefferson) is also the school’s most fashion-forward. The unitard and the slipper-like boots that she wears while practicing outside class hours are not only perfect as we continue to stay at home, but also very on-trend for 2020.

Tennis skirts
While the U.S. Open looked different this year, tennis fashion was still trending, with pleated athletic skorts on the rise. The matching colors of the top and skirt are a nice touch.

Oversized shorts
While Archer’s teacher yells at Neveah for wearing “junk,” aka articles of clothing that cover the dancer’s limbs, athletic knee-length shorts have been our WFH uniform since March — and aren’t going anywhere. We’ll be borrowing the tights-underneath styling, though.

On Monday, during a performance of her new track “Let Me Love You Like A Woman” on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, Lana Del Rey fans spotted something glittering on her left ring finger. “Lana is engaged omg,” wrote @soldelreyna on Twitter. Another fan, @okchristy88, went even further: “Did Lana Del Rey get married? She has a ring on that finger on Jimmy Fallon.” And while engagement rumors have been flying since Del Rey was first seen wearing the ring on Halloween, according to People, her fans weren’t entirely wrong.
On Tuesday, a source confirmed to People that the Paradise singer is engaged to musician Clayton Johnson, who she met on a dating app, according to the publication’s source. Refinery29 reached out to Del Rey for a comment but did not hear back at the time of publishing. The source also claimed that the couple has been engaged for quite a while now. Either way, we can say with certainty that Del Rey is in possession of an unforgettable piece of jewelry.
The ring, which also appeared on Del Rey’s Instagram prior to her appearance on The Tonight Show, as well as in the photo from Halloween, looks to be non-traditional — at least as it pertains to trending engagement rings — with a wrap-around design and at least one large stone. Both the Halloween photo and another from a November Snapchat video would have us believe that it is set on either a white gold or a platinum band.
