Fashion Trends That Should Never Come Back

The past is the past for a reason. Let's try our hardest to keep it there.

Fashion Trends That Should Never Come Back

Oh, the ever changing world of fashion. What is "in" and "trendy" one day, is "out" and "ugly" the next. But, there are some trends that should have never been "in" and should stay "out" forever. The past is the past for a reason, people; let's try our hardest to keep it there.


Carreras

Seriously, you are a d-bag if you still wear these. It screams, "I am from the worst part of the Jersey Shore; I curse at people at red lights, and I take Molly on a regular basis." As a (Northern) New Jersey native, I hope that these sunglasses never make a reappearance.


Flair jeans


I am not saying you have to wear skinny jeans. What I AM saying is do not wear flair jeans. They are a thing of the past and they should stay that way.

Side note: Please do not ever wear Reebok running sneakers with jeans. It's never going to become trendy.


Adidas jumpsuits

Please stop trying to bring out your inner Missy Elliot, circa 2004. I don't know why this trend started, or why it lasted the length of time that it did, but it needs to stay in 2004.


Gucci belts

I will never understand why Gucci belts are such a wardrobe staple, especially for rappers. It does not make you look so rich that you own a private jet. It is tacky and obnoxious, and no money in the world can save you from that.


Flat brimmed hats

Can't we all just agree that regular baseball caps are so much better than these? You are no longer an angsty, 13 year old boy who only rides skateboards and watches Rob Dyrdeck's Fantasy Factory.


Plastic sunglasses

Why do people think that it is socially acceptable to wear these out in a serious manner in public? They need to stay at the Sweet Sixteen that you stole them from.


Giant belts for the waist

We all had them. We all cherished them. We all have super embarrassing pictures of ourselves wearing them with confidence. Let's make sure the only time people see you with them on is in that picture.


Mascara that is not black

I don't even know how to explain this one because I simply do not understand it. Make up is supposed to enhance your already beautiful natural features, and to the best of my knowledge, no one in the world has naturally blue eyelashes.


Denim skirts with leggings and Uggs


Just like the giant belts, we all wore this outfit. We forced our mothers to come to the extremely dark, obnoxiously loud, headache driven store that is Hollister and buy us the skirt and leggings. But, as all trends in middle school, let's pray this one does not resurface.


Bermuda shorts


You indecisive person -- just pick a side! You are either wearing real shorts (which, by the way, can be appropriate in length) or pants -- none of this in-between nonsense. You are either a Yankees fan or a Red Sox fan, but never are you both. This rule can apply to fashion: you either wear shorts or pants, but never something in between.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
