4 trends we can't wait to leave behind in 2017

Leggings or workout gear with sheer inserts

Okay, confession time: I have a pair of these. Mine have sheer panels at the back of my leg, and only over the calves which I find able to deal with as I'm not as confronted with it; but yoh. Some of these inserts are overkill. Sheer and even complete cutouts, what is even the point of a long pair of leggings? Just wear shorts.

Applying our foundation, the unconventional way...

This year makeup aficionados tried using everything but a beauty blender to apply their foundation.

Like, using an egg...

And a condom. Yes. According to Buzzfeed people cover their makeup sponge with a condom in order to use less product as a sponge can soak up a lot of foundation in particular.

And then one that gave us chills, the ice water challenge...

Pom pom shoes

These were already a tad much for me as statement keychains, now they're on heels?! I don't think pom poms belongs on shoes. Let's keep them where they belong - in winter and on a beanie. The end.

Everything, literally everything being dusty 'millennial' pink

This needs no explanation. Yes it's sooooo pretty. And yes, the W24 team wore pink most Wednesdays but when everything around you is this hue you start questioning whether or not you are in fact living life inside a marshmallow.

Okay, go forth and do better. We're going to try our hardest too. Goodbye millennial pink, farewell. Sniff.
