13 Photos Of Celebs That Prove 'Lampshading' Is A Legit Trend
@byandressasalomone

It's a style based out of comfort. A style that allows you to leave the house feeling less constricted, and one that doesn't require spending heaps of money on a well thought out outfit. One that college sorority girls have popularized and made synonymous to their style, though I'm sure that it was happening long before.

Protestors of "lampshading" insist it's a sloppy look. Some go as far as to say those who lampshade look like they just rolled out of bed (which I'm usually guilty of).

However, when it comes to T-shirts and hoodies, I say the bigger the better. XXL please.

Lampshading: Wearing an oversized T-shirt and athletic shorts that are hidden by the shirt. This gives the girl a silhouette similar to that of a lampshade. (Usually worn by college girls, esp. sorority girls).

It's time for the lampshade criticism to end and these 13 photos of celebrities rocking the classic sorority trend is all the proof I need to convince you.

1. Kendall Jenner

Jenner's Givenchy T-shirt rings in at around $2,000 while a Comfort Colors T-shirt is closer to $20, but it doesn't mean she hasn't taken to the popular trend of lampshading.

2. Rihanna

We expected nothing less than support from Bad Girl Riri in the endeavor to #makelampshadingcoolagain.

3. Vanessa Hudgens

Vanessa Hudgens is famously known for her gypsy-like festival style. It's surprising and refreshing to see her supporting the move towards popularizing the oversized T-shirt look.

4. Gigi Hadid

If it's good enough for a super model, it's good enough for me.

5. Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner subtly lifts her shirt to remind the rest of us she remembered to put on shorts- a common fear for the everyday lampshader.

6. Jaden Smith

Jaden Smith has been ahead of the trends with his gender-neutral fashion sense long before his first appearance in Vogue, so it's no surprise that he's also behind the movement towards oversized T-shirts and exposed thighs.

7. Bella Hadid

The youngest of the Hadid sisters shows solidarity to the movement in a statement T-shirt that essentially provides the message I want to send to all lampshading haters.

8. Kourtney Kardashian

It wouldn't be a style statement without including the eldest of the Kardashian clan. Plus, I couldn't help pass up an opportunity to show how she spiced up the classic look with a pair of now sold out Aquazzura Velvet thigh high boots in midnight blue.

9. Hailey Baldwin

Thus confirming Hailey Baldwin's style is the only style I'll be channeling on LSU's campus this fall.

10. Jourdan Dunn

Jourdan Dunn is a highly ranked super model for a reason. If she isn't ahead of the trends, she's creating them herself. Now, she's added the oversized shirt and no-pants look to her seemingly effortless style.

11. Ariana Grande

Ariana Grande paired her XL T-shirt with a pair of high-heeled booties and a jacket for a night out. I'll definitely be trying this for a night in Tigerland this fall.

12. Rihanna (part two)

Including Rihanna twice because she can do no wrong. Plus, she's given me a lot of inspiration that involves swapping out my tennis shoes and pairing my thigh highs with my extra large T-shirts.

13. Justin Bieber

Technically his pants are visible so he's not really "lampshading" but lately Justin Bieber has taken to wearing long T-shirts that nearly reach his knees. Now, imagine a world where Bieber is pant-less and he's one step closer to bidding a sorority this fall.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
