Trends are something that comes and goes with time. What was trendy yesterday is being considered lame today. The world is evolving and changing every day.
Viral Strange prepared a list of trends that almost everybody followed in the past. Some of them are funny, and others are ‘ew’.
1. Thigh gaps
A few years ago, women were obsessed with having thigh gaps. The famous triangle! They even followed diets to get slimmer! The gap was considered a beauty standard at the time. Today people are more interested in having good physical and mental health.
2. Playing Happy Farm
The hours spent playing this game! All the users were kind of obsessed with it. The number of ‘farmers’ reached millions. Young and adults harvested fruits and veggies, ran a household, etc. Today, people are keener on strategic games.
3. Thinning and changing the eyebrows
In the 2000s, super thin eyebrows were the most trendy thing! Unnatural brows are not considered cool today, though. Some years ago, bushy eyebrows became a trend. Later on, the micro-bladed ones. As trends change, natural eyebrows stay in the game.
“Growing up, I was made fun of for my big, bushy brows. Then seemingly overnight suddenly, I was getting complimented for not having “thin, overplucked brows.” I actually thought I was being mocked, that’s how sudden it was. It taught me a valuable lesson about trends and being ‘fashionable.’ It’s all made up, do what makes you feel happy.” © Bomdiz / Reddit
4. Black granite as a countertop
Black granite as a countertop was the most popular trend in the 2000s. Today people prefer modern and practical solutions.
5. Posting every move on social media
Years ago, people used to post everything they did on social media. A pic of the mug, their meals, or the blurry window with a border. LOL. Even today people share their daily life, but they plan the posts using a strategy to make them more attractive and to reach more people.
6. Small funny tattoos with no meaning
Getting small funny tattoos was a trend too. The mustache tattoo on the finger was a favorite. Today people have lots of creative ideas they get as a tattoo, and often with a meaning behind them.
7. Removing freckles
Freckles were not admired once upon a time. Many kids even got bullied because of them. However, nowadays freckles have become a trend and you can even find DIY beauty products.
“I was hideously teased for having freckles in secondary school. Now kids are drawing them on and my nieces are obsessed with mine.” © Pretty-Risk-7667 / Reddit
8. Wearing smokey eye makeup daily
In the 2010s, smokey eye makeup was a daily choice. There was no difference between a morning coffee and a party makeup. Kim K was the one who made the trend even more popular. Today people wear little to no makeup in their daily life.
9. Throwing away old things
Old or vintage things were sent to the dump once upon a time. Today people are trying to upcycle or renovate old things. Vintage things are coming back in style.
10. Duck face selfies!
The most embarrassing trend was the duck face selfie. 10 years ago it was normal and cool. People thought they looked attractive with their lips pulled in front like a duck. Today, a pouty face is not cool anymore.
