The It List

New year, new vibe. That situationship you’ve been overthinking? Out. Going to bed before midnight? In. Not sure where to start your 2025 glow-up? We got you. 

We asked Her Campus readers what’s hot (and what’s not) for the new year — from fashion and beauty to travel and trends. The result? The It List. Your go-to guide for everything worth your energy in 2025, and the trends you can leave firmly in 2024.

Let’s make this your most you year yet.

Lifestyle

Say goodbye to all the drama. This year, we’re focusing on experiences that actually make us happy. We’re spending 2025 traveling with family and close friends, marking our cals for major TV and fashion moments, and seeing top artists — SZA, Gracie Abrams, Tate McRae, and Kendrick Lamar — on tour.

wellness

When it comes to wellness, just do less. We’re swapping e-cigs and alcohol for water and NA bevs, and skipping long nights out for extra shut-eye. As for mental health, we’re working hard to set boundaries and worry less about what others think of us.

Social media

BFFR: New Year’s resolutions to quit social media just aren’t realistic. Instead, this year, we’re deleting the apps we’re not using anymore (sorry, Lemon8) and resetting our algos to serve us more content that’s genuinely useful.

Fashion

Three words to describe our 2025 fashion aesthetics? Clean, simple, and comfortable. This year we’re curating our closets with timeless, high-quality pieces that will always be in style. Bonus points if they’re thrifted.

Beauty

No-makeup makeup? Count us in. The clean girl aesthetic is still very much in for 2025, so instead of adding an 84th red lipstick to our makeup bags, this year, we’re focusing on hydrated, glowing skin and a natural beat.
