80's Fashion Is Finally Making A Comeback

Just when you thought you would never catch yourself wearing leg warmers, the 80s are back, baby!

Ladies, have you noticed anything different in the hair supplies section in your local drug store? You may have seen a few “new” items that bring back the times of the 80s. Banana clips, scrunchies and much more have reached the interest of this generation's trends and before you know it, you may find yourself buying these products. And if you haven't noticed, go look at the hair product aisle in your drug store, these products are almost guaranteed to be there.


If you have seen any of the hair styles from the 80s, you probably have once laughed at them as they looked so ridiculous. But now, curly hair and perms are becoming more and more in style; making those embarrassing hair-dos into the desired do.

My hair stylist told me that she has seen a rise in the trend of curly hair, and as a girl with naturally curly hair I am ecstatic! No longer will I have to use two hot plates to straighten my curls to fit in, and instead let them be free as the lion’s mane it was supposed to be! To girls with straight hair, it is your turn to use hot tools to create our hair to be in style!

Plus, there is a change in fashion, high-waisted pants and shorts are on the craze. I once laughed in mockery of women wearing their pants up to their ears, but now I find myself trying to pull off that look like everybody else.

Have you ever caught yourself wearing bright colored yoga pants or leggings? If so, you are a product of the 80s!


Big oversized tops hanging over the shoulder with a bralette peeping through is also a repeat in fashion history.

The only style that i find ridiculous and hope that it never makes its way into this centuries fashion, are the leg warmers. They don't necessarily live up to its name and keep your legs warm, and plus an accessory for the legs never sounded like a good idea.


If you keep up with the latest trends, then you have probably noticed that you have contributed to making the 80s happen in the 21st century. It's nothing to be ashamed of, and if you ask me, we are definitely rocking the 80s look than it has ever been before! It also makes you think what styles that we have now would be considered an embarrassment in 30 or so years, my vote is for yoga pants and skinny jeans!

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
