The Treasure Hunt: Inside Rhode Island’s Vintage Festival

Last Saturday I spent the afternoon at the Rhode Island Thrift and Vintage Festival, and it felt like walking into a world of stories stitched into fabric. Everywhere I turned, fashion was being reimagined and repurposed. Style came alive not through what was new, but through the way people gave fresh meaning to pieces already filled with history.

The atmosphere was charged with creativity. Denim softened by years of wear, leather bags with a patina that only time can create, bold prints that carried the spirit of past decades yet looked strikingly modern. I loved watching how people styled their finds. The street style was as inspiring as the racks themselves, a moving gallery of individuality and self-expression.

I left carrying treasures and a head full of ideas. The festival reminded me that vintage is not a passing trend. It is a new direction for fashion, where sustainability, personal expression, and creativity meet.

Nugget to take home

Style begins with perspective. Sometimes the most powerful move is not buying new, but reimagining what already exists. A scarf worn as a top, a men’s blazer tailored to your proportions, or a pair of vintage jeans paired with a crisp modern shirt. These touches transform a wardrobe into something unmistakably yours.

Here are some of my favorite finds from the festival, along with the incredible street style moments I captured. For this Nugget I am not creating a shoppable catalog, but instead leaving you with my advice: explore second hand and add preloved goods to your existing collection.

From Runway to Reality: Fashion Week’s Influence on Everyday Style
Fashion Week in Paris, Milan, London, and New York is more than a spectacle—it sets the tone for global fashion trends. Runway looks trickle down into high street fashion, from sequined dresses reimagined as sparkly camisoles to oversized blazers and structured jackets. Even beauty trends—lip colors, hairstyles, nails, and glowing skin—emerge from these shows and shape our daily routines.

The trickle-down effect means couture visions are adapted by fast fashion brands, mid-range labels, and boutiques, making runway style accessible to everyone. But the street style influence is just as powerful: editors, influencers, and stylists outside the shows inspire bold accessories, layering techniques, and creative color pairings that quickly filter into wardrobes worldwide.

For your closet, Fashion Week is the butterfly effect of fashion—a single runway moment in New York or Paris can inspire how you tie a scarf, style your jeans, or pick your next handbag color. At Nuggets of Style, we bridge the gap between luxury fashion shows and real-life outfits, showing how to translate runway trends into everyday style that feels authentic and wearable.

The Beauty of Spring 2026 NYFW

The runways in New York this season reminded me that beauty is about mood as much as it is about makeup. Designers sent models out with looks that felt fresh, daring, and often surprisingly wearable, the kind of inspiration you can bring straight into your own routine.

I saw plenty of naked faces, skin kept fresh with a natural glow that looked healthy and alive. Cheeks had that flushy, just back from a walk color, often in peachy or orange tones that felt warm and uplifting. Against that softness, some shows went the opposite way with dramatic eyeliner, sharp wings and bold shapes that gave a feline strength to otherwise minimal looks.

Lips had their own moment. Bold colors popped here and there, but what really stood out were the browns. From rich mocha to soft brownie nudes, these shades gave a confident and modern edge without overpowering the face.

And then there was the wet look. Dewy skin, glossy lids, and lips with a glassy shine created makeup that seemed alive under the lights and caught just enough reflection to feel new.

What I love about all this is how easy it is to try. A cream blush in a warm tone, a swipe of eyeliner a little bolder than usual, or a brown lipstick instead of your usual pink can bring a touch of runway into your everyday. If you are feeling adventurous, lean into gloss and glow and let your skin shine.

✨ I pulled together my favorite beauty products inspired by these NYFW looks so you can play with the trends in your own way.

The Belts Are Low

In New York this season I could not help but notice how belts are shifting down. Forget the cinched waist moment. Now they are sliding lower, resting on the hips and giving outfits a more relaxed, effortless vibe. I saw it not only on the runways but also in the streets of the city.

It is a small detail, but it changes the whole silhouette. A belt worn low lengthens the torso, softens the waistline, and adds a playful nod to the early 2000s. I saw it with denim, wide trousers, and even layered over dresses.

Some designers are even playing with two waistlines in one piece. One high up on the waist and another lower with belt loops at the hip, inviting you to choose how to wear it.

The beauty of this trend is that it is easy to try. You do not need a brand new belt. Just wear your favorite one a notch looser and let it fall naturally lower. Pair it with a crisp shirt tucked loosely, or with a simple tank and wide-leg pants, and suddenly the look feels modern again.

Belts are no longer just about function. They are about styling, layering, and attitude.

Bubble Hems Everywhere

I was in New York City for just one day of Fashion Week this season since a family emergency kept me from staying longer. Even in that short time, I could not ignore how strong the bubble hem trend is right now.

It was not just on the runways. It was in the streets. Dresses and skirts, but also shorts, pants, and even sleeves shaped with that playful rounded hemline. Bubble hems are bringing movement, volume, and a little drama to every part of the wardrobe and they clearly do not want to leave anytime soon.

Designers are showing them in crisp cottons, airy organza, and silky fabrics, while street style is embracing minis, maxis, and casual everyday versions. The versatility is what makes them so exciting. You can go bold with a sculptural skirt or keep it fun with a bubbled sleeve or shorts.

From what I saw in New York, this is a trend that is only expanding. Bubble hems are having their moment and it is a playful one worth trying.

Preppy is the recycled black. Polos are back

Polos are everywhere again and it feels fresh. They showed up on runways and then hit real life fast. Rihanna wore one. Hailey Bieber did too. Billie Eilish brought her oversized, not so traditional take. Zendaya made the tennis polo feel chic during the Challengers press moments.

This is not the old polo with basic jeans. The vibe now is relaxed and creative. Polo with a sharp suit. Polo with heels and a slip skirt. Polo with tights and a mini. Polo under a dressy third layer when you need ready in seconds. The knit keeps it easy. The collar makes it look intentional. Leave a button open and it feels modern.

Keep your colors inside your everyday base so the polo mixes with what you own. If you want a little fun, try a stripe and let it do the talking. Mix it with pieces that feel a bit unexpected together and watch the outfit click.

I pulled a small edit of polos at a range of prices for you to explore. No full looks here, just good polos that work hard. Shop my picks:

I have been a red lip girl since college. My signature shade is bold, unapologetic and it transforms me the second I swipe it on. It is my instant power move.

But even the most loyal red lip devotee needs to play sometimes. Lately I have been stepping out of my comfort zone and exploring other lip looks. Shades and textures that still feel like me but shift the mood in an instant. Think of it as accessorizing your face the way you would a perfectly styled outfit.

My process is simple and precise. I start with a matching lip liner to define and sculpt. Then I layer a creamy lipstick for a rich color payoff. On certain days I add a touch of gloss in the center to catch the light and add dimension.

Right now my line up looks like this:
Red lip with matching liner. No gloss needed because the vibrancy stands on its own
Nude mauve with matching liner and a touch of gloss in the center. Soft, understated and polished
Rosy pink with liner and gloss. Fresh, feminine and playful
Plum gloss over liner or lipstick. Deep, rich and full of character

I still love my red but these combos have opened a whole new side of my style. They let me match my lip to my outfit, my mood and even the season.

Your lips can speak before you do. Make sure they are saying something worth remembering.

What lip combo can you not live without these days?
