Letter from the Editors

At Seriously, we don’t constantly critique each other on how those shoes don’t go with that shirt. Fashion is more than that. Fashion is the key to your identity. It helps make great impressions, expresses values you stand for, and it boosts your confidence because when you look good, you feel great.

Now that winter is coming, many cold and windy days await. This issue will help you keep warm and look stylish. Hampton high is a very classy school, so we figured you would enjoy a fashion issue. All of the journalism writers have worked hard to bring a Seriously styling publication, that we hope you like.

Your editors, Rebecca & Kyle

Value Village: Future of shopping

Though the unemployment rate is going down that doesn’t mean everybody has to go out and buy the best brand name clothing on the market. Value Village/Savers can be a great way to save money and get a good bang for your buck. A percentage the money also goes to the Organizations that help the needy so it’s not just you benefitting of amazing prices, you’re doing something helpful for others as well. When you’re younger, wearing brand name clothing is always a way to fit in and look like everybody else. When you get older and buy your own clothing, you soon learn that saving money is the way to go. Most of the time you can find brand name clothes at Value Village anyway, so it’s not necessarily a big deal. A good tip for buying clothing at Value Village is to always wash the clothes you buy before wearing. They could be dirty or could have bed bugs. This is not a problem if you wash them because it kills the critters. The clothing there is pretty clean and in usually in good condition. If you pick wisely you can get yourself a real find! So remember, saving money is a lot better than trying to buy brand name clothing, because having more money means more bacon.

VALUE VILLAGE

 History  of  the  hoodie,  Shaniah  Girouard

The  garment's  style  and  form  can  be  traced  back  to  Medieval  Europe  when  it  was  the  normal  clothing  for  monks.  This  was  a  long,  decoraUve  hood  called  a  cowl  a>ached  to  a  tunic  or  robes,  and  a  chaperon  or  hooded  cape  was  very  commonly  worn  by  any  outdoors  worker.  The  hooded  sweatshirt  was  first  produced  in  the  United  States  starUng  in  the  1930s.  The  modern  clothing  style  was  first  produced  by  Champion  in  the  1930s  and  marketed  to  laborers  working  who  endured  freezing  temperatures  while  working  in  upstate  New  York.  The  term  hoodie  entered  popular  usage  in  the  1990s.

The  hoodie  took  off  in  the  1970s,  with  several  factors  contribuUng  to  its  success.  Hip  hop  culture  developed  in  New  York  City  around  this  Ume,  and  the  hoodie's  element  of  instant  anonymity,  provided  by  the  accessible  hood,  appealed  to  those  with  criminal  intent.  High  fashion  also  contributed  during  this  era,  as  Norma  Kamali  and  other  high-­‐profile  designers  embraced  and  glamorized  the  new  clothing.  Most  criUcal  to  the  hoodie's  popularity  during  this  Ume  was  its  iconic  appearance  in  the  blockbuster  Rocky  film.  Nowadays,  hoodies  are  a  staple  in  casual  wardrobes  around  the  world.

  Fashion  Trends  for  Fall  2013  and  Winter  2014   Fashion  trends  change  yearly,  someUmes  monthly,  and  in  high  school  it  may  even  seem  like  daily.  We  all  want  to  be  in  the  latest  trend  having  them  before  anyone  else  we  know.  But  with  the  trends  changing  so  quickly  it’s  hard  to  keep  up.  One  day  it  will  be  all  about  bright,  neon  colours  and  the  next  day  all  about  pale  pastels.  How  do  we  even  begin  to  keep  up  with  the  newest  trends  for  this  year?  Well  here’s  some  inside  Ups  for  fall  2013  and  winter  2014  trends  that  will  be  hot!  

  For  2013  the  look  to  have  is  loose  fiTng,  drooped  shoulder  coats,  which  makes  it  easier  to  layer  without  looking  like  there  is  too  much  on.  Drooped  shoulders  and  loose  fiTng  will  also  be  a  big  hit  in  shirts  as  well.  The  colours  will  revolve  around  a  deep,  dark  burgundy,  as  well  as  bright  colours  and  printed  designs.    Leather  is  also  a  huge  thing  this  year  as  well  as  its  complementary  fur  accents.  Fur  always  seems  to  be  in  style  if  you  walk  into  any  store,  it  is  almost  guaranteed  that  you  will  find  a  piece  of  clothing  with  fur  a>ached.  Scarves  are  a  big  thing  this  

season,  the  bigger  the  be>er  as  far  as  the  fashion  world  is  concerned.

  For  the  2014  winter  season  the  trend  will  change  quite  a  bit.  High  hemlines  will  be  seen  all  over  the  world  during  this  cold  season.  Luminous  colours  will  be  everywhere  you  look  as  long  as  it  is  navy  blue.  Navy  blue  will  be  incorporated  into  almost  every  garment  produced.  Deep  metallic  colours  will  be  all  over  your  school  campus,  making  the  wearers  hard  to  miss.  Plaid  will  be  a  pa>ern  we  cannot  ignore.  A  blast  from  the  past  is  about  to  hit  the  fashion  world  hard  with  the  return  of  retro  style.

  Enough  about  clothing,  doesn’t  every  girl  want  to  know  about  make-­‐up?  I  sure  think  that  they  do.  Eye  shadow  is  the  focus  for  make-­‐up  fashion  this  coming  year.  Browns,  like  always  will  blend  nice  with  most  any  colour  you  decide  to  wear,  bright  and  light  pinks  will  make  your  eyes  pop  and  stand  out  all  day  long.  Earthy  green  tones  will  go  well  with  any  light  whites  or  pastel  colours.  Blues,  dark  and  light,  will  draw  that  good  a>enUon  

to  your  eyes  that  every  girl  wants.  You  will  have  to  be  careful  with  your  colours,  one  bad  choice  and  it  could  go  downhill,  but  good  choices  can  make  you  the  most  fashionable  girl  in  school.

  Fashion  is  a  big  thing  for  most  girls,  even  though  half  of  them  won’t  admit  it,  it  really  is.  It  makes  you  who  you  are;  people  know  your  style  more  than  they  know  you.  Whether  you  get  your  clothing  from  a  high  end  store,  or  a  store  like  Frenchy’s,  it’s  sUll  style.  You  create  your  own  style.  Fashion  is  a  big  part  of  our  world,  but  you  cannot  let  it  define  and  destroy  you.  Even  though  we  all  want  to  have  the  ho>est,  latest  trends,  we  can’t,  and  that’s  a  fact  of  life.  We  can  make  our  own  fashion  trends,  and  who  knows,  maybe  they’ll  show  up  in  Paris  or  Milan  one  day,  you  just  never  know.

Interests  in  rela+on  to  fashion   Fashion  is  the  most  noUceable  and  loudest  voice  of  today’s  generaUon.  Not  to  menUon  for  the  past  few  generaUons.  Fashion  was  always  compared  to  Ume  periods  and  not  to  menUon  genres  of  music  and  hobbies  or  interests.  Whatever  the  interest  is  you  can  quite  frequently  see  it  reflected  on  the  hairstyles  of  the  person.  Whether  you’re  a  hockey  player  rocking  a  hairstyle  called  flow  or  you’re  a  disco  lover  with  an  afro  we  can  all  agree  that  interests  reflect  on  the  person’s  looks.  

  In  Hampton  High  School  we  have  many  people  who  have  quite  a  big  interest  in  the  sport  Hockey.  Lately  people  playing  hockey  are  enjoying  the  flow.  The  flow  is  a  greasy  long  styled  haircut  that  is  not  like  the  mullet  but  has  certain  resemblance  in  the  structure.  Both  haircuts  are  long  and  majesUc.  The  mullet  is  a  li>le  bit  greasier  than  the  flow,  unless  it’s  Jaromír  Jágr  mullet,  that  thing  was  beauUful.

flowed hair has become popular through hockey (helmet and hat hair)

afros are more from the 70’s but are still popular in some peoples opinion.

mullets are starting to

make a major come back in the younger generation
