The fashion world is distancing away from us every minute, every day. Honestly, I donâÂÂt know what the latest trend is anymore. All I do is look around and follow the trends my friends and classmates follow in school. I feel that it is unnecessary to have fashion trends because after awhile, it would be abandoned and another new trend becomes âÂÂhitâÂÂ. Then it goes in a cycle all over again. ItâÂÂs just like catching a bus and if you missed it, all you can do is wait for another bus. I am struggling to catch up with everyone else and IâÂÂm always wondering how a new trend forms. Who started all these new trends? What is the purpose of these trends? A few weeks ago, animal shaped rubber bands were a hit. Majority of the students were wearing them like bracelets and they were collecting different animal shaped rubber bands. Well, they are just rubber bands that have a shape of an animal. ItâÂÂs not like we never saw a rubber band before. I guess itâÂÂs something new and we are curious about it for awhile and once we are bored with it, we just put it aside. I, myself collected 6 of them-a car, camel, penguin, duck, dolphin, and pig. I got bored with it and gave some to my friends. Even if I give it to them, they wouldn’t want it because it is out of date. It’s not popular anymore so it’s useless to wear it. I left my “bracelets” on my desk and I havenâÂÂt touched or looked at it for awhile. IâÂÂm glimpsing at peopleâÂÂs wrists and none of them are wearing it!The price increased to $4.99 a pack of 24 rubber bands when it was a hit. After a week or two, unsurprisingly it dropped to $2.99 in Walgreen and in the streets; they sell them for $1.00. Now what happens to the rest of the leftover products in stores if no one is buying it? Well, they just have to be patient and wait approximately a few years later where the rubber bands become popular again. The rubber bands would be waiting in the storage room until they become old and dusty. Recently, it has been peaceful with no new fashion trends. If we are having fashion trends, why donâÂÂt we do something more productive like everyone supporting âÂÂgoing greenâ and carry a recyclable tote bag. We can even buy reusable water bottles so we can reduce plastic water bottles. It would be fashionable and it shows that we do care about our environment.
