It's funny how history repeats itself and new trends come about that absolutely hit the ground running. We make fun of our parents for the things they did and what they wore when they were our age, but here we are wearing things extremely similar. And once we have kids, the same thing will be happening. We will want to relive our glory days and show our kids everything we cherished in our prime, and their response is going to be sheer laughter. But it's only fair; the trends we love are quite comical.

1. Chacos

The shoes we all judged but ended up getting. The Jesus sandals, the hipster shoes, the shoes that accompany every sorority girl's daily uniform of an oversized T-shirt and norts.

2. Two-piece prom dresses

I wish I could tell you where this trend came from. While there are some tasteful ones out there, this one is far from it. I never would have thought to see a girl wearing that at my prom, but sure enough, someone had to. I can't wait to hear what my daughter has to say about this one day.

3. Monogrammed everything

It's like we forgot our names or something. You walk around campus, and most girls have their initials on everything like they're prepared to lose their stuff.

4. Painted faces

I don't know who came up with the trend to put dots on your face, but I'm guilty of it and probably will do it again.

5. Printed bell bottoms

We will probably get laughed at for these one day, but I don't care because I will rock them even after they are out of style.

6. The fact that we went to music festivals they want to go to

Nothing like embarrassing your children with the cold reality you used to be cool. I sense a few remakes of today's hits in the next generation's future, and I will be that mom singing every word.

7. #MCM and #WCW

Whoever thought to post all over social media pictures of their significant other or the person they longed for clearly had too much of a crush or not enough man.

8. Oversized T-shirts and "norts"

Or rather, just the simple fact that we called them "norts"... What every girl is probably sleeping in and wearing to class the next morning. And don't forget the question, "Are you even wearing pants?"

9. Crop tops

The phenomenon that leaves us wondering if cotton just might not be what it used to. How did we end up shrinking all of our shirts?! Yet another thing that can be done in good taste, but will leave our daughters saying, "MOM?!" and sons saying, "EW."

10. High-waisted shorts

The mother of the infamous "FUPA" and my method of choice when being forced to go out on a more than normal bloated day. We'll have to explain to our children that raising the waist line was the solution to the shrunken top epidemic.

11. Birkenstocks

Aka potato shoes, socially acceptable house shoes, and the pair that goes with a dress or a T-shirt.

12. Topknots

Some people might say top-not, but let's all be honest. This is a life saver. When you're just too tired or lazy to wash your hair, this 'do is coming to the rescue.

13. Ombre hair

You either get compliments or you get weird looks and thoughts that probably go something like, "Does she know her roots are really grown out or....?"

14. Snapchat

If it wasn't on Snapchat, did it even happen? Everything is publicized and on Snapchat for everyone to see because that's the only way to let me know you exist and actually have a life.

15. Themed everything

Let's be honest, our kids will be throwing themed parties from our generation.

16. 21st birthday signs

Is this just a shield for whoever's holding your hair at the end of the night?

Child: "Mom, why do you have a giant flower around your neck in this picture?"

Me: "Oh, it's just a safety precaution. You should always have some emergency contact on hand,"

17. Eno-ing on the campus green

Everywhere you go on campus, you see people hanging from trees like animals. It may be relaxing, but it will open up some interesting questions from our children one day when you have to explain why you and one other person were wrapped up in a cocoon together in public.

18. Snap backs and flash tats

Some people call it art and some call it jewelry, and while I love it, I hear the future generations laughing at pictures of us covered in metallic tattoos. Yet another thing to wake up with stuck to your face the next morning.

19. Selfie stick

Finally being banned from America's most public places. As if struggling to take a selfie on your phone wasn't enough, someone created a contraption to help us look even more ridiculous and like tourists in our own homes. My mom has one, and when she brings it out, I'm embarrassed, so I can only imagine how my children will feel.

20. We make a list about everything

There you have it, kids, another list. Love, a future mom.
