Older People, Tell Us Which Fashion And Beauty Trends From Younger People Confuse You

Speak your truth .

As times change, so do trends, and older people are often confused (or even shocked) by things younger generations wear today. So, older people, please tell us the fashion and beauty trends of younger generations that don’t make sense to you.

For example, maybe you don’t understand (and also hate) the whole trend of young people wearing sneakers with a suit jacket because you feel it’s unprofessional.

Or maybe you find it confusing to see young people wearing oversized sweatshirts over bike shorts because they seem to be dressed for two different kinds of weather.

Maybe you don’t see the appeal of that popular haircut that’s big and poufy up top and swoops at the bottom because guys look like they always have helmet hair.

Or maybe you don’t get how people wear those big, fluffy false eyelashes because you tried it once, and it felt WAY too heavy.

Whatever it is, tell us the fashion and beauty trends that younger people do today that completely confused you (or use thisGoogle Formif you want to be anonymous). You could be featured in an upcoming BuzzFeed post or video.
