No matter who they are or where they come from, everyone has a sense of style and a taste in fashion. Fashion varies infinitely, and trends tend to follow the general population. But which trends are truly timeless, and which are just plain trashy? Are your clothes hot or not? The students at North Forsyth have a lot to say.
The first trend thrown to the wolves in the Raider Café may be the most controversial clothing piece of the past couple years: jorts. That’s right, the long jean-shorts best worn by Adam Sandler that have been taking over the teenage universe. As far as the results go when asked Hot or Not, the controversy holds its ground. Answers ranged from “Ew that’s so Adam Sandler core, not” to “No!! Absolutely not,” to “Hot, easy.”
So maybe they aren’t that controversial, maybe they just aren’t hot. This could just as easily be blamed on who wears the clothes, though; if you can’t make it work, it’s not the jorts’ fault. It’s 100% yours. If Adam Sandler can make them work, you can too.
There is one item of clothing North students seem to agree no one can make work anymore: North Forsyth high-schoolers are almost all a part of the ‘wife-beater’ hate club.
“I hate them…they look–slimy,” were the words of a particularly strongly opinionated student.
They couldn’t be more right. If the name alone doesn’t scare you away from wearing these tank tops, you scare me. And I’m sure you’re scaring plenty of other people, too–put your arms away.
Now, this next one might turn a few heads, but it’s gone too long without being discussed: the Lululemon girl. Let’s talk about her– or at least her clothes. She may not be the only one wearing crocs and athleisure on a day-to-day basis, but you can be certain she’s the only one wearing them like a second skin.
Contrary to what can now be called unpopular belief, the students at North like her. They have spoken, and her leggings are “hot”; even Principal Bob Carnaroli can be quoted as saying “Yes!” when answering if crocs were “hot or not”.
If you were on the fence before, rest assured that the right opinion has been defined: Carnaroli has spoken, and his opinions may as well supersede those of all students combined. So, the next time you go to put on shoes and glare at those crocs you bought in 2020, reflect for a moment: WWCD? What would Carnaroli do? Maybe try them on again for a day. You may just turn yourself into a North Forsyth high-schooler deemed fashion icon.
