The 'Tell Me Lies' Beauty Looks Are a Trip Down Y2K Memory Lane

Grace Van Patten as 'Lucy' in Hulu's 'Tell Me Lies' Season 2, Episode 207.

Anybody watching Hulu's Tell Me Lies knows that it's nothing short of an emotional rollercoaster. The drama series follows college students Lucy (Grace Van Patten) and Stephen (Jackson White) and all of the mess that ensues after they meet during Lucy's freshmen year. It's a masterclass on what not to do in a relationship filled with cheating, scandals, and, of course, lies. But in between all of the juicy drama, there are some Y2K beauty moments that have this editor taking a trip down memory lane.

During season 2 (which recently wrapped on October 16), Lucy heads back to the fictional Baird College for her sophomore year. It's 2008, "Low" by Flo Rida is the number one song of the year, and low-rise jeans are easily the biggest denim trend. Her dangerously low-slung pants and layered camis take me back to my own cringy fashion choices of the early aughts, but when I focus on her beauty looks, it's an entirely different story.
