7 Fashion Trends You Need To Start Following Immediately

In This Article:

As I am currently avoiding the massive laundry list of things I need to get done this week and scrolling through Instagram, I started thinking of all the fun fashion trends that are hot right now. I compiled a list of all my current faves, along with some trends I just can't get behind. Now, get ready to waste more time and go shopping!

1. Barrettes

If you follow me on Snapchat, you know that I recently just purchased my first pair of barrettes. Well, my first pair in about 10 years. I'm not sure why, but I'm OBSESSED with this barrette trend. You can instantly make a drab outfit more fun with a cute barrette. Wear one or wear 10! The choice is yours. There are no rules when following this trend. And barrette is such a fun word to say. Like I said, I'm obsessed. I will be naming my first born child Barretté.

I got mine at Free People.

2. Animal Print

Can I just say, this trend has been a long time coming? Like, I was obsessed with animal print circa Snooki era. Before it was glam. Like, ratchet leopard print. But I still rocked it biiiiiitch. However, I must say this is a much better way to rock the cheetah print. Lose the bumpit, make it more glam.

3. Sneakers, All The Time

There is nothing you cannot pair with a fab sneaker. I loooove my Filas more than anything and I wear them probably more than I should. Leggings and a tee, jean shorts, a mini dress, literally anything. I know some people out there love to shit on my Filas saying they look like orthopedic shoes, but haters will always hate. Also, like, if he comes through with some Jordans, homeboys gonna like, get it.

4. Ski Goggle Glasses

Who doesn't love a good ski goggle moment? There's something about wearing a huge pair of "ugly" glasses that cover your entire face and making them ~fashion. Look, if Kim K is doing it, I'm in. Buy a pair here.

5. Biker Shorts

I know this trend has been going on for quite a while now, but I hope it never ends. I have been searching the internet for the perfect pair of black biker shorts to purchase and although I'm obsessed, I'm also nervous. Like, is this trend only for people who have a thigh gap? From my understanding, it's quite the opposite. Like, they're supposed to suck all the thigh fat in so you don't chafe like you do in normal short-shorts. Right? Someone please let me know. I'm trying to look fab but not like I have two sausage links for legs, ya know?

6. Slip Dresses

I need about 50 more slip dresses like these. They are so simple, yet so elegant. Plus, they look good on all body types. I'm currently loving them in a midi-style as well. It says, "I'm classy, but still like to hit the club," if you know what I mean.

7. Casual Chic

I LOVE FULL GLAM WITH SWEATPANTS. When will the world finally see that this trend is the future? Comfort, but make it fashion. Like, a full cake face of makeup, fake lashes and all, a snatched ponytail, and a crop top with sweatpants. Top it off with your Filas. Gorg.

8. Trends I'm Not Loving: Puka Shells

Free People

Huh? Why are these coming back? Like, I know Moana was an amazing movie and all, but like we don't need to start looking like her, ok? I went into Free People the other day and saw about 20 puka shell necklaces. I was immediately transported to the early 2000s. I was so confused.

9. Trends I'm Not Loving: Train Conductor Hats

This is the photo I am talking about. I shiver just thinking about it.

Ok, so some people can really rock these. Like I have seen so many people look fab in their little conductor hats. For me, however, it's gonna be a no. The last time I wore one of these was in a Claire's in 2007 taking a selfie with a digital camera and I just cannot go back.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Whether you're commuting or dorming, your first year of college is a huge adjustment. The transition from living with parents to being on my own was an experience I couldn't have even imagined- both a good and a bad thing. Here's a personal archive of a few of the things I learned after going away for the first time.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
