Are trends a trap?

Post by HikerShawn »

Trends usually mean forking out more money, feeling bad when they don't have your size, and trying to impress others by being a part of the "what's popular right now" train.

Are trends actually a good thing? Or are they a trap?

How do you all feel about this?

They do seem like a money trap, they take your money, you have something for a short while and then it's bad to have.

Yeah I think they're a money grab and a trap. Once they go out of style, you're also stuck with clothes you might not want to wear anymore. I never follow trends, I just wear whatever is comfortable and my wife is the same way lol.
