5 Fashion Essentials Every 'Outer Banks' Fan Needs To Become The Next Pogue Queen

When Outer Banks first hit viewers' screens a few months ago, every teenage girl and her best friend wanted to be Sarah Cameron.

Sarah Cameron makeup tutorials began to surface on YouTube, along with style guides on Instagram that showed you where to buy that striped, wrap dress that she wore on her trip with John B to Chapel Hill.

However, nobody seems to be talking enough about our other favorite character, the original queen of the Pogues.

I personally preferred Kie's laid-back, summery style over Sarah's preppy, beachy looks throughout the show.

If you're like me and want to become the next Queen of the Pogues, here are some of my personal favorite pieces that were essentials Kie rocked throughout the Netflix Original's debut season, and how to replicate them!


1. A Simple, Patterned Bikini

@obx

With a huge chunk of this action-packed show being filmed on the water, all of the characters needed to wear their swimsuits underneath their normal clothes in case there was an opportunity where they needed to hop on a boat (which was literally in every episode).

But, a Pogue Queen doesn't need those extra frills or a tiny string swimsuit- she needs something practical for when she has to dive into the marsh to help her buds.

And who said Sarah Cameron was the only one who can rock stripes? Kie looked so good in this striped bikini. Here is another top, paired with matching bottoms that we can also imagine Kie would wear.


2. A Classy, Formal Gown

Pogues can get dressed up sometimes too! During the Midsummers episode, it was nice to see all our favorite characters, both Pogues and Kooks, all dressed to impress.

Kiara looked stunning in this long, lavender silk dress. Here is another, more affordable dupe that's a little bit cheaper than the one Kiara is sporting in the picture above if you still want to recreate her look from the party.


3. A Durable, Solid-Color Bandana

@obx

If there's one thing that Outer Banks set trending again, it's the bandana. The Pogue boys have also been caught with this wardrobe staple in many of their outfits, around their necks, or even styled as a headband as JJ did here.

As an accessory, the headband bandana adds a fun, summery flair and a pop of color to any outfit, and is extremely practical when you and your friends are constantly on the move while running from Kooks.

To recreate this, all you need to have is get some spare fabric. Cut and measure it so that it fits your head, before tying it and voilà! You've got yourself an easy, DIY headband.


4. Beachy, Handcrafted Jewelry

@obx

Most of Kie's wardrobe gives off a more casual, laid-back vibe compared to Sarah's, and the jewelry she pairs with many of her outfits shows off her environmentalist, free-spirited personality that we love.

Layered necklaces, simple charms, and beaded pieces are staples in her closet. Here is a collection on Etsy where you can find natural, beachy chokers similar to the ones that Kiara is wearing here.

5. Easy, Comfy Tops

@madisonbaileybabe

Most of Kiara's tops throughout the show are easily paired with some classic denim shorts, ranging from slightly, baggy t-shirts to breathable, cropped tank-tops. The versatility, yet simplicity of her outfits somewhat follows the VSCO girl aesthetic, but adds in her own naturalist vibe and the beachy setting that the show is in.

Super cute and Pogue Queen chic.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
