2023 Lifestyle, Fashion, Tech & Content Predictions & Revivals Nicstalgia
-
- Society & Culture
In this solo episode, we are doing whatever the opposite is of taking a walk down memory lane. I share with you my lifestyle, fashion/2010s revival, and tech trend predictions for 2023. We’re due for a 2020s version of wine/paint bars. Pickleball? Grandma stuff? Mushroom bags? I’m here for it. Will we see a resurgence of business casual, going out tops, or the perfect combination of the two: peplum tops?? Dare I mention…side parts? Giant Bakers-esque 6” platform stilettos? It’s time for a new generation to risk it all (namely, a sprained ankle) trying to leave the house. (Shoutout to the Diffusion of Innovations and my retail career for making this episode possible.)
Do younger generations ultimately just end up turning into their parents’ generations? Is ChatGPT for Gen Alpha just Wikipedia for Millennials? Is the -verse coming for us? (Taco Bell-verse will have us at bay.) I talk about web3, the next iteration of the internet based on ownership, and dig into what the future looks like for content creators and influencers as the breakdown of social media as we know it begins to unfold. What does content production and distribution look like when we center creators rather than platforms? I share what I think is going to happen to influencers and creators of different sizes based on the current web2 (social media) landscape, the tools that can facilitate positive change so we’re not a bunch of burnt out robots, and advice for fellow nano influencers. (TLDR: don’t trust an algorithm lol.) Nicstalgia had 41 episodes in 2022 – thank you for coming along for the ride!
