Now Trending
Natalie Monze, senior, said, “A fashion trend I’m currently into is the corset trend. I have always been drawn to Baroque fashion even when I was little. I was always mesmerized by the very elaborate and detailed dresses. It’s nice that it’s trending now because it makes it a lot easier to find affordable corsets instead of paying $200 for a steel bones corset that will take two months to ship.”
She also said, “I would recommend to others is to wear whatever makes you feel confident, you don’t need a reason to dress up either ! It’s kind of like a self care thing, you get time for yourself to get dressed and to sit down and do your makeup if you wear it and just admire how beautiful you are. If you feel scared to go out in a super cool outfit, you made just pretend we are all avatars in a super customizable video game. Someone will always have something negative to say about how you dress yourself so don’t worry about the opinions of others and dress like the baddie you are”

Body Modifications
Style, wardrobe, hair looks for all people have changed or made comebacks over the years and this goes for tattoos and piercings as well. From septum and belly button piercing to microhand and full sleeve tattoos, there has always been an aesthetic of these kinds of body modifications. More recently, facial piercings and black and grey and tiny tattoos have been trending. According to Refinery, with the presence of Covid19 and many stuck at home, people have been eager for change and it is almost psychology with “many of us itching for a change, and a permanent one is especially tempting.” For example, getting a small tattoo of an animal, quote, or anything meaningful is a big aesthetic step
This goes for piercing as well with either someone getting a septum piercing, “spider bites”, “snake bites”, and or regular lobe ear piercings. Spider bites are essentially piercings hanging on the bottom corners of your lips while snake bites can be found pierced on the corners of your upper lips. It is said that these piercings aren’t painful to get, but you might feel a slight sting within eight days of first getting them done. Any other piercings or tattoos you or someone else may want will have reference photos found on all spurs of social media, so just choose wisely and go for.
Disclaimer: must be eighteen years of age or have parental agreement to get any form of piercing or tattoo.
