- The fall of Twitter
Elon Musk’s takeover will mark the end of twitter in 2023, as investors and users lose faith. TN2 predicts the rise of a new spangled social media app – which do you think will fill the vacuum?
2. Stiletto crocs
Hear me out – platform crocs were a big, if questionable trend this year, so get your croc charms ready for heels!
3. Sin é
That’s it – we’re leaving bad nights out in ‘22. Try Sin é this year, the up and coming bar on Ormond’s St Quay Upper, with a lit pub quiz and pizza (alas of the frozen variety, but hits the spot all the same) to satisfy your boozy cravings.
4. The ‘C’ cut
If Rachel from Friends and That 70’s Show had a hairy love child… the pixie cut we’re all dreaming of to blow the January cobwebs away.
5. Rollies
Not to be basic, but District Magazine has spoken! Rollies are in, straights are out… Along with the chicken fillet roll apparently (?)
6. Pumps
Gah, if the patriarchy hadn’t already done enough, we’re going to be forcing our feet into ballet flats for another year in 2023. 
7. Co-Star
Avoid: street lamps. Do: humility. Gen Z’s favourite astrology app will be dictating our behaviours in 2023 one weird recommendation at a time.
8. Hot Yoga
This one has been around a while, but getting your sweat on while getting your sweat on could just be the next biggest trend to hit the wellness market this year.
9. Pepperpot Cafe
Another Dublin specific one for you – the Pepperpot is our all time favourite Dublin cafe at TN2. Overlooking Pygmalion with fine China, this hidden gem is central enough to be your study break but still feels like an escape from campus. Try the pear and bacon sandwich and the Victoria sponge. Thank us later!
10. Prince Harry
Our cocaine loving bad boy royal is firmly back on the scene with his debut autobiography already sending shockwaves through The Royals. What’s coming next? Who knows. But the drama is only heating up; the gloves are off and the high tea is ready to be served.
