Houses that are decorated in a million shades of grey.

AppleKatie · 26/03/2021 15:13

I was going to say completely grey houses!

Trulyatraditionalman · 26/03/2021 15:13

@flapjackfairy It's the new magnolia!

Pampas grass. What's happened? It's EVERYWHERE!

Cockapoos

Artisanal Gin

Big gas guzzling 4x4s

Injected lips.
Yes, five years from now people will be having them removed entirely.

When everyone went through that ridiculous phase of putting eyelashes on their bloody cars

TikTok.

Heavily drawn on eyebrows. Skinny brows. Mad hatter brows.

Dandelionflower · 26/03/2021 15:17

Huge black slug eyebrows. Although that's maybe happened already.

Finfintytint · 26/03/2021 15:18

Televisions on a chimney breast.
Glittery paint ( especially on chimney breast).
False panelling in modern homes.

ghostyslovesheets · 26/03/2021 15:18

Fake grass

Trulyatraditionalman · 26/03/2021 15:19

Crushed velvet and mirrored everything.

Or is that trend already out in favour of paneling??

Documenting everything on social media.
It’s been happening for well over a decade; it isn’t going anywhere.
Chanjer · 26/03/2021 15:19

I think it's already well on the way out but prosecco. It's a (mostly) cheap alternative to champagne because it's shit

Spied · 26/03/2021 15:21

The grey hair look on those under 40.

MajorNeville · 26/03/2021 15:22

Gems on fake nails

PurpleMustang · 26/03/2021 15:23

@Trulyatraditionalman got to be careful with the pampas grass. Indoors only, else it if its in your garden, it reverts back to its old meaning hahaha

Giant trainers

Spillanelle · 26/03/2021 15:25

Yes, I think probably lip fillers too, and heavily microbladed eyebrows.

Blondiney · 26/03/2021 15:26

The obsession with getting the ashiest of ashy toned blonde hair. People will look back and wonder why they were walking around with dull, grey hair.
