When you walk around in any crowded place or observe people at any social gathering place, you will notice that they all have some things in common. Usually if you see a group of people together, there will be a common theme, something that makes them all look similar. It especially happens with kids and young adults.
They are so eager to fit in; they often copy one another without regard to how it looks from the outside. Fads and trends are often more of a young thing, with younger people falling victim to the shortsightedness of it all. When everyone is doing the same thing, then if you are the only one that is not doing it, you feel as if you are on the outside. When in fact, you are the one setting the next trend.
These trends and fads often express themselves in fashion and cloths. What is popular this year, won't be cool next year and the new thing will be the old thing very soon. It seems silly once you grow up and see what is more important, but when you are in the age groups that it affects, it really does seem like a big deal.
Do not wear the right pair of sneakers or wearing a pair of jeans that do not wash them right are almost certain ostracism and death of a teenager. While not listening to good music can be an obstacle if the wrong people know. Finally, you'll be out of it and you stop caring what other people care and everything is a little better.
These fads come and go, but there are certain things that stick out there and there are certain fabrics that never go out of fashion. And remember, everything is cyclical and returned. In the nineties, we had to endure the sixties again when the children of the flower power generation is old enough to see what it was. Even bellbottoms and certain things from the seventies have reappeared again.
What was old becomes new again as new generations discover their parents' old things in the attic and in the back of the closet. I am almost certain that the eighties will not return, but stranger things have happened and only time will tell. We could even see these baggy MC Hammer pants back in style.
