Trends are a funny thing. For anyone who is familiar with the
cycle of fashion, you know exactly what I mean. One second, there's this hot new trend that your fave celeb is wearing. At this point, everyone jumps on the bandwagon just so they can say they were down. The next minute, the trend has become trashy, tacky, and all the other words you can find that conjure up a negative connotation in the fashion world. Why? Because the trend trickled down too low.
Even so, there's this amazing thing that happens to trends time-to-time. Actually, a lot. Some socialite who doesnt give a fuck about what others say and is fearless in fashion decides to breath some air into some left-for-dead trend. Do you know what that's called people? A LOUD revival!
Recently, I've been seeing a LOUD revival occurring. Anyone remember Janet Jackson in "Poetic Justice"? Of course you do, what a dumb question. For those who are not familiar with the movie, Miss. Jackson (but I ain't nasty) wore these long, down-to-the-bottom-of-her-back, signature box braids through out the movie. This was back in '93... Considering the difference in time, you can understand why I am surprised to see this hairstyle making a comeback. Video vixen, Yaris Sanchez was
gushing on instagram about how badly she wanted to get them, Saha Concierge socialite, Shanti is
already tired of the do, and even Lashontae Heckard, from "The Game",
sported them.
Which highly successful singer has joined the LOUD revival of this trend??
