15 Female Fads That Lost Their Hype

The 2000's have held such great memories for us all. Since I have been around I have witnessed quite a few fads live up to greatness and then die out. I am pretty certain I participated in the obsession with each and every one of these fads.

1. Distressed Ripped Jeans

Everyone loved a good flare jean, that is until skinny's came in style.


2. Silly Bandz

If you don't remember these, I'm ashamed. Seriously! The packaging says it all. I remember trading people for cooler bands.


3. Hair Feathers

I never really understood this one, but this was seriously THE in thing of its time. That is until schools started banning them, anything to take away individuality.

4. Feather Earrings

5. Marble Nails

Maybe you still do this. This was way too time consuming, but the end product was always fabulous, unless you sucked at it like I did.

6. Potato Shoes

Why did we wear this atrocious things. They weren't even comfortable either, unless they were broken in. Other that that, WHY?

7. Vibrant Peekaboo Streaks

I think all us girls probably wanted a colored streak at some time.

8. Thin Eyebrows

I envy people who have been able to come back from this awful fad. I have had the hardest time getting fuller eyebrows. Now eyebrows are a deal breaker. UGH.

9. Uggs

I'm pretty sure every girl in my Jr. High had a pair of these. Different styles are still popular, but they aren't nearly what they use to be. Plus, knock offs have kind of replaced these overpriced boots.

10. Crimped Hair

Not just any crimped hair either. The fluffy, teased, blowout.


11. Crocs

These were comfortable and even came in all different styles and colors, but now they're just a complete fashion don't.

12. Chunky Streaks

Guilty as charged. I lived for chunked colors in my hair half way into high school. Why did I allow this for so long?

13. Peace Signs

Over using the peace sign in all of your photos was super popular. Then "fierce" took over, hang loose, then the rock on sign. It's a never ending cycle.


14. Sweat Suit Outfits

Sweat suit outfits were really in. The jackets were a must, and the velvet sweat outfits? Don't even get me started. Being that matchy, matchy, though just shouldn't be a thing.

15. Thick Side Bangs

I think many, many of us went through this stage. The big bangs were totally bangin'.

I sit here and seriously wonder why the heck we still don't obsess over some of these, maybe we need to bring some of them back!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
