Look around. Students clad in UGGs, frumpy sweats, North Faces, and skin tight leggings dominate the student population. Where is the individuality? The sense of style? Trumbull High School is in desperate need of some style education from people their own age. <\/p>\n

Beauty gurus on YouTube have been teaching others the many ways to embrace and define their personal style, and to find the confidence to stand out from the rest of the student body. There are many different YouTubers to watch. After many years of combing through fashion, here are the top three YouTubers to watch in order to help shape and form individual style. <\/p>\n

Number three on the list is TheFashionCitizen. Hosted by twin sisters, Melissa and Stephanie these girls are one in the same; however, their diverse style is what sets them apart. If you are on a tight budget, while in search of transforming your wardrobe, these are the girls for you to watch. Melissa\u2019s style is a lot more vintage and girly, which is a stark contrast from her sister Stephanie who dresses more rocker chic. Every week or so, the girls go to thrift store shopping, and they teach you how to get more for your money, and how to even DIY old items and make them more current! Stay tuned because they post outfit videos each week so it is great inspiration!<\/p>\n

The second YouTube channel to watch is LetsMakeItUp1, which is not a fashion channel at all. In fact, it focuses on hair, which arguably is a key part to any outfit. From artful chignons, twisted braids, and the shockingly numerous ways you can curl your hair, YouTuber Kaley covers it all. She is very easy to understand and she covers all of the steps to reach your desired \u2018do. Who knows, maybe you will be doing your hair for prom?<\/p>\n

Last but certainly not least, the best YouTube channel to watch is Macbarbie07, aka Bethany. Being a regular high school girl makes her easily liked, and relatable. With an easy, cute, and casual style, Bethany certainly can inspire most girls at THS. She even does DIY projects for fashion and bedroom design. She blogs, does makeup videos, and is even sponsored by high end brands. This girl knows her stuff, and updates her YouTube channel every week (sometimes even more!). <\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like there is a mix of trends at THS. However, you can easily tell what is popular and what is not,\u201d said Ashley Hennequin, a THS sophomore asked about fashion at THS. One of the trends that is much hated include UGGs.
\nAccording to sophomore Rachel Hogan, this is because \u201c\u2026they are not practical\u2026I have never owned a pair in my life.\u201d
\nTHS is not completely sentenced to fashion purgatory though. Senior Jenna Tetu, who graduated early this year, was part of the small percentage of the student body who cares about the image that she projects. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe best accessory a girl can have is any sort of headpiece. A cute patterned headband, a sun hat, a fedora, clips, or any of that sort. They are so small and cute\u2026you can do so much with hair accessories to complete your outfit,\u201d said Jenna Tutu. There you go THS, from one of your very own!<\/p>\n

To leave you with some lasting advice, again, Jenna gives some advice to help fix the fashion rut we have here at THS, \u201cI think girls at THS need to step out of the same section of Forever 21 and try something new for once. I see a lot of repetition of boring outfits of girls in \u2018solos,\u2019 a tight shirt and a zip up. Most people look like clones of each other. Your style and how you dress is so important for you. I think girls should really try and be more individual with their clothing and find their own styles regardless of their friend group.\u201d Brush up on some style tricks by tuning into these YouTube channels and find the spark of creativity in you! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
