As the season changes from winter to spring, the warmer weather calls for fewer layers and new styles to add to one’s closet. Many new trends have popped up recently in the fashion industry to prepare the masses for the coming of this new season.
One idea that fashion designers and vintage stores are promoting is the fact that Letterman jackets are not only for athletes anymore. Loose-fitting and comfortable, Letterman jackets, or varsity jackets, have soared in popularity for men and women this spring season. The versatility of these sporty jackets can be worn day or night and for any occasion. Paired with jeans and a contrasting t-shirt, one can spend a casual day out with friends. However, wearing a Letterman jacket with a solid or striped sweater and khaki pants can suit as wear for a more formal night out.

Avoid "circus" look this Valentine's Day
by Zoe McCracken
Beauty: a word that has plagued any girl’s subconscious since the beginning of time. Nowadays, to achieve this standard girls have been turning more and more towards makeup. This is no exception on Valentine’s Day as everyone is getting ready to meet the girl or guy of their dreams.
On this special day, people think that to impress someone, they have to play up their image with excessive amounts of makeup. In this frenzy, girls typically end up looking overdone. However, no one is ever going to be impressed with someone who has eye shadow up to their brows and blush that looks like they’re going to the circus.
All this over excessive makeup conveys that one is trashy and easy, which if that’s fine then go ahead. This is definitely not a turn on though when one is looking for a long term commitment which is usually what one is aiming for on a Valentine’s Day.

Enterprising club designs clothes for campus groups
by Maggie Blackburn
Looking around MHS, there seem to be different sweaters for every club, event, and group on campus. The trouble with all of these sweaters is that someone has to design them.
Need a sweater design? No problem. The Fashion Club here at MHS has got you covered. They design the sweater and even take care of the order, but not without a price.
After Fashion Club merged with Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising Club (FIDM), the two clubs put their heads together to come up with a fundraiser. This fundraiser not only allows the club to earn money, but it gives them a way to expose their creative ideas to the student body by designing different designs for group sweatshirts or t-shirts.

Messenger bags a step toward maturity
by Darren Lim
Now that we are all high school students, we will eventually have to make the transition in becoming college students. This transition is definitely a big one as we leave our home and our kid-like behavior behind; this definitely calls for a change in how we dress as well. Why not look like a college student now?
Messenger bags for both males and females are becoming extremely popular in both high school and college. With their slick, college look, messenger bags provide an easy-to-carry and convenient bag that nearly anyone can sport. They also have a more professional and mature look, which makes them possible alternatives to the traditional backpacks.

Faux hawks simple solution to boring hair
by Darren Lim
Many of us have that secret admiration for mohawks but are not brave enough to sport it, so what do we resort to? The faux hawk.
Because faux hawks tend to be worn with short hair, many males, rather than females, are seen wearing them. Recently, the faux hawk has become more popular with its semi-conservative look as it is not too extreme and not too boring. Getting one is also very simple!
