2015 -

Here’s a short, interesting write-up for 2015 — fitting for a retrospective, year-in-review, or nostalgic piece.

• Fashion: Flannel shirts, bomber jackets, and the "man bun." Kanye West and Adidas released the Yeezy Boost 350, creating a sneaker culture that would dominate the rest of the decade.
• Social Media: Instagram stopped being a filtered photo app and became a lifestyle. It was the year of the "flat lay"—photographing your coffee, watch, and journal from a bird’s eye view.
