Christmas is coming, your tacky sweaters have been worn to at least five Christmas parties, finals are over and final grades are in. Needless to say, the year is winding down. Every year some people (especially me) think about all of the negative things about the previous years - mistakes made, chances we did not take, etc. While it is wise to learn from our mistakes, it's also important to focus on the positive things that made 2016 a great and special year. So here are a list of trends I (and some special friends at MSU Odyssey) hope carry over into 2017.
1. The Kermit Memes ("Me to Me")
These will never get old, their is even now a Bitmoji for it.
2. Bitmoji
I just cannot get enough of me!
3. Poppin' Highlights
So cute, it better stay around!
4. 90's Clothing
My favorite decade is trending again and I hope this trend stays around in 2017!
5. The 90's Basically Making a Comeback
Fuller House, plaid, flannel, overalls, the 90's are going to take over.
6. Chokers
The perfect accessory, some chokers literally match everything and I love it. This trend better stay. 7. Oversize sweatshirts & t-shirts
This trend has been around for a couple of years now, so I am betting it will stay. I mean who does not want to be comfortable?!
8. High top Converse
So simple, so perfect, so hoping this trend stays around...
9. Odyssey Articles
I really love reading these and I am glad Odyssey has been around for another year.
10. Adias Superstars
The perfect addition to the typical t-shirt outfit.
They add so much pop to a dark and dreary day, perfect for 2016.
12. Over the Knee Boots
I'm literally obsessed with these. They add so much style to skirts and dresses.
13. Scrunchies
Enough said, let's hope it's still cool to wear them next year.
14. Strappy Heels
2016, the year we made our feet look stylish too.
15. The Word "LIT"
It started in 2015, become very popular in 2016, but will it stay in 2017??
16. Starbucks
A classic trend and it has been for years. I know you cannot wait to see what new things they will do in 2017.
17. Mississippi State Winning the Egg Bowl
Yeah, I could get used to this. Let's hope it happens again next Egg Bowl!
18. Yeezys (both real and knock-offs)
I love seeing the kind people who will literally pay over $1,000 for these. Look up Yeezy knockoffs and it's almost creepy how similar they are.
19. Bullet Journaling
If you do not know what it is, look it up. It is by far one of the most beautiful ways to keep up with your life.
20. True Grit Jackets
So soft, so fuzzy, so trendy
21. Snapchat memories
Bless Snapchat memories, that is all I have to say...
22. Instagram Stories
I know, It's the same as Snapchat stories, but I really love using the neon pen to write in cursive.
23. Velvet Everything
Velvet is such a soft and elegant material, I really hope this stays.
24. Jumpers
So 90's and so much love.
25. Faux Fur Home Accessories
So soft, so trendy, and I hope this stays because I own way too much faux fur.
26. 'Arthur' Memes
Such a great flashback to our childhood...
27. Suicide Squad
The popularity of this movie is making nerds cool again, let's hope this stays for 2017.
28. Finding Dory
Still not over how cute Baby Dory was...
29. Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them
Such an amazing movie, so many unanswered questions... Plus, I really hope the American Wizarding world keeps trending so that way we will be more likely to get more stories and our questions about it answered.
