Creating Carolyn Bessette’s Effortless 90s Glam Look In 2026
Minimal chic
If you’re anything like us, you’re glued to Love Story on Disney+.
The mini-series follows the romance of Carolyn Bessette and John F Kennedy Jr in the 1990s until their untimely death in 1999.
While the story is so beautiful, we’re more tuned into the fashion…should we all be getting pedal pushers? We’re digging out tortoiseshell headbands as we speak.
Sarah Pidgeon plays Carolyn Bessette. And we’re obsessed with her makeup on the show.

One thing we can all agree on is that both in real life and in the show, minimal makeup was a go-to for Carolyn. Think clean girl makeup, but just a bit elevated. So put the bright colours away and update your makeup bag with these products.
