Back To The Trends
Me and my friends are ultimate trend and fad followers, but in a different world or dimension of trends and fads.There are two worlds of trends, those are:
Normal trends
Sad trends
We love the sad trends. It went from card games, Yu-Gi-Oh! and Magic to name a few, to just regular card decks (one of my best friends really loves Derran Brown and card tricks...), then it went to drones, which I am not not allowed to fly due to crashing the thing about half a cm away from dog crap on accident, I would say memes but they're more of an eternal force than a trend or fad to be honest, they're always gonna be there, then a few of us got into vapourwave too.
Now the thing we're obsessed with is yoyo's apparently. Like, professional yoyoing. Which is a thing, this is a level of nerd which I've not broken into yet, I'm just hovering above it slightly because I don't wanna spend £10+ on a yoyo, but one of my friends has a professional Yoyoing glove.
Does it even get anymore competitive?
Two of them practically learned competetive yoyo tricks within a day of storming YouTube. I mean you can say what you want about us, but you can't deny we're dedicated.
So this is the groups new fad, which a few of us aren't actually active in, but this is what we do in our spare time. I love us.
But it got me thinking about actual fads from years ago to now, and ffs it's been a journey. There are trends from the 90s that have come all the way back today and they're bigger than ever, thanks to peeps like the Kardashians & the Jenners etc.
America always do it right for the trends, don't they?
I'm doing my favourite thing to do ever! A countdown, ofc, of trends that have somehow been dragged back up from literally decades ago. Here we go...
Oh my GOD, if you don't have at least one collection of these in your legal possession you're not enough of a basic bitch.
This is literally fellow nerdy girls sex appeal right here, stick one of these bad boys on and you're suddenly this magic happens from within:

2. Polaroids
These things are essential in the hipster 2.0 starter pack. They were really popular in the 50s and 60s, but, like the chocker, they're back bitches and better than ever. For hipsters.
P.S. A shout out to anyone who doesn't know exactly what a hipster is, like naive young me a year ago before I listened to this song, listen to this song: All Star Hipster
3. Berry Lips
Oh my good god this is all I see on the lips of my fellow females these days. Including myself when I'm feelin like a bad bitch.
The 20s and 30s had this one, hands down, with top baes like Clara Bow setting that trend like a queen. Now, it's become the most popular colour to use on your lips. Jeffree Star has a beaut called Unicorn Blood which is perfect, just sayin. But ofc if you're like me and poor, NYX do a gorgeous one called Cherry Skies which won't brake a girls (or boys) bank and is also amazing quality.
4. THE WEAVE IS BACK
The weave is real, the feels are real and my love for this trend is also real and what defines me in life.
When I say weave I'm not talking about the silky & straight Beyonce weave, I'm talking about true afro-carribean beautiful bouncy disco-ball curl weave. The affro is back, the 70s have prevailed and I couldn't be happier.
5. Grunge
Just look at half of the girls in your highschool, college or university and you'll find grunge everywhere, and it's edgy as f.
Also, in the limelight, you got the perfect example of grunge which is Cara Delivigne.
There are obviously a lot more, but right now I'm overwhelmed with what's on the Tv, The Incredibles. I'm currently falling back in love all over again with Edna Mode, so this is it!
Let me know about any more trends peeps!
