Ever put on an outfit and look in the mirror and feel like you look like trash? Well, you’re in luck! You may be more in style than you give yourself credit for.
This weekend at Western Washington University there will be a “Grunge” fashion show, consisting essentially of students wearing trash.
“You can make something really beautiful out of a bunch of garbage,” said WWU student Will Wheaton.
Perhaps it’s just as the old saying goes: “One mans trash is another mans treasure”. Well, in this case one man’s trash is another man’s wardrobe. Close enough!
The bridge between hipster and homeless is becoming shorter and shorter. That is your latest fashion update.

Before you shell out the big bucks for your next pair of Joey Jeans, you might want to consider what the Olsen twins are cooking up.
The new denim line is called Textile Elizabeth and James. It seems a bit wordy, but the twins are confident that these new jeans will be a big hit.
“With the addition of Textile Elizabeth and James, the label offers a well-rounded collection of casual to dressy options for the trend conscious customer,” Ashley Olsen said in a recent statement.
This new line of jeans has sort of a cool, 70s vibe. Unfortunately for you and I and our wallets, they will retail for over $200. But we’re used to paying through the nose for quality designer denim, right?
There are currently only three jean styles, but there are plans to expand in the near future to eight (including corduroy styles). Eventually they even plan to include blouses and sweaters in the Textile Elizabeth and James line.

Strong demand for tight jeans, “Slim” on the market has caused an increase in symptoms of meralgia paresthetica among adolescents and children under 30 years. Experts have seen an increase of this disease, especially among young women.
A woman who wears tight jeans describes burning sensations crossing along the thighs while.
According to the Mayo Clinic, of meralgia paresthetica is characterized by sensations of tingling, numbness, pain and burning at the outer part of the thigh.
Fortunately, in most cases, this disease can be cured by adopting simple measures such as wearing loose clothing.

In more severe cases, you may notice a patch of skin that is sensitive and can sometimes be painful to touch. The meralgia paresthetica is not associated with signs of weakness or pain that radiates from the rear.
Neurogenic drugs such as anti-depressants are used to treat pain and relieve symptoms of meralgia paresthetica.
In some cases, when pain is persistent or severe, surgery may be suggested. The tight jeans are not the first types of pants that cause this condition. The designer jeans in the late 1990s and early 2000s, were also associated with meralgia paresthetica.
In the 1970s, rumors were already accusing jeans cause infertility in men and women.
Another Internet site, Salon.com, explains that this condition does not affect many people. ek Kate Harding said: “The figures are hard to find, but I think it is time that we could speak of handfuls of young women.”
If you have symptoms of meralgia paresthetica, stop wearing tight jeans, and consult a doctor if pain persists.
