We owe it to Kim K for half of these.

The Weirdest Trends Of 2018

I am no fashion or lifestyle expert, but there are some trends that I simply cannot wrap my head around. Whether its horribly lip-synced videos or the use of plastic bags as purses, here are a few trends that truly stood out in 2018.


Biker Shorts

Youtube

Biker shorts are literally just spandex sports shorts that are classified as fashion because of Kim Kardashian West. I get that they're comfortable but since when do we label sportswear fashion?

Transparent Handbags

Youtube

The see-through handbag made its appearance mid-2018. The transparency of this handbag makes it easy for everyone to spot the contents of your entire bag, including your wallet, change, and pepper spray.

TikTok Videos

Youtube

Just when we thought the lip-syncing to songs on video trend was dead, it made a comeback via TikTok, an app on the iPhone that records 15 to 60-second videos featuring people lip-syncing or dancing to songs, also known as miming.

Transparent Boots

Youtube

The counterpart to the transparent handbags, see-through boots were also a "thing" in 2018. These shoes make leg hair and sweat very visible, so naturally, Kim Kardashian endorsed the product.

Halo Eyebrows

Youtube

Funky eyebrows have been a reoccurring theme over the past few years. Last year, we saw beauty gurus draw their eyebrows in a swirly motion to the middle of their forehead- it's a casual look.

Denim Knee-High Boots

Youtube

These boots take denim to a whole new level. I can actually see how some people might want to indulge in this trend, but there's no doubt that it's still a pretty odd look.

I'm sure this list of questionable trends could go on, but these were most "striking" of the bunch.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, 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."

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…
