For those that aren't constantly checking the trend reports, its easy to get caught up in the lastest "fads" and mistake them for trends. A trend is something that changes over time, but can still be used a closet staple( i.e. skinny jeans, riding boots, etc.). A fad should be(but is often not)easily spotted...here's a few, good example to know when something is a fad:
2. You don't really like it, but you'll buy cause you wanna "fit in"
4. You bought it cause all your friends already had it and then when you wear it, tragically you're the only one.
Reminder: A way to stay clear of a quickly fading fad is to be true to your own style. Wear what suits your personality. Whether you're the prep, the rocker, the goth chick, the baller, or the mean girl :-)...your style will be admired even if its not what everyone else is wearing.
