Here’s how to get that viral ‘mob wife’ look

Say goodbye to the clean girl look, because the “mob wife” aesthetic has officially entered the chat as the hottest trend of 2024 thus far.  It all started in early January when Canadian blockchain product developer Kayla Trivieri posted a now-viral TikTok video in early January declaring that “bold glamour is making a comeback.” The video has since been viewed over 1.7 million times, and people have been jumping on the look that calls for going big across the board: voluminous hair, punchy makeup colors, blinged-out jewelry and long manicures.

Key pieces to incorporate into your ‘mob wife’ aesthetic 

To achieve this aesthetic, think outfits and beauty looks inspired by Carmela Soprano in “The Sopranos” or Elvira Hancock in “Scarface.” The look is marked by opulent clothing choices — (faux) fur coats, large gold jewelry — and bold beauty looks including bright red lipstick, long red or French manicured nails, winged eyeliner and voluminous hairstyles. 

To help you nail this vibe, we’ve culled 10 showstopping beauty items and wardrobe pieces. The best part: Every single one is available on Amazon.

Best beauty products for the ‘mob wife’ aesthetic

Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Beso

For a vibrant and classic red lip color that won’t budge for six hours, try this liquid formula by Stila. The full-coverage product has a creamy, matte finish and it provides good moisture for your lips while you wear it. 

Kenra Volume Spray 25

This fast-drying and flake-free hairspray will give you plenty of volume and hold to create large and loud hairstyles. Still, it leaves hair looking natural and shiny.

Lashaholic Lashes Basic B Collection

Large and fluttery falsies — such as this pair from Lashaholic — will help take your look to the next level. These silk lashes apply with glue and gradually lengthen towards the center. 

Kiss Salon Acrylic French 28 Nails

These press-on nails have an overstated French tip to give you a (temporary) statement manicure. They provide durable strength and comfortable wear and are applied with the included glue. 

NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Epic Ink Liner

If you’re a liquid eyeliner beginner, this waterproof formula makes it easy. With a super-thin tip, the vegan pen lets you be as precise as you want — or as heavy-handed as your inner mob wife desires.
