The snap team was blasting these tunes during the September cover photo shoot, and it helped inspire a fierce and fabulous tone on set. But don’t fret: even if you’re not ready to hit the catwalk, these songs will set the mood while you’re getting glammed up for a night out, or pre-gaming with your friends. Just like the perfect outfit, this playlist mixes old and new, and will surely inspire a night of fun...and a whole lot of fierce! — MS

Passion pit, “i’ll be alright” The intro to “I’ll Be Alright” sounds a little frenetic—a feeling we’re all too familiar with when prepping for big photo shoots!
