Resolved Question: Popular trends at your school?
In 6th grade kids always wore these little hair ribbons, and in 7th it was aeropostle, abercrombie, and hollister, oh and kids ALWAYS wore makeup!
And zebra print and track and field or cross country wacky outfits like dying hair for a meet or wearing blue socks were popular among some of the popular kids. It was like they tried to put themselves trying to make others think they didn’t care how they looked, but they probably did. 
Skinny jeans were popular too.
And I am from Virginia.
Those are the trends here.
I got this off of another question, this question.
Resolved Question: You Live Where??? Silly City Names. Anyone live in one of these?
