I'm Not Trending And That Makes Me Happy

Send us a text

With the turn of the seasons, it's time to revisit my wardrobe, which leads me to consider fashion (intimidating), and then fashion trends (mystifying), and from there, trends in general — especially popular culture trends.
What I notice is that very few of them have anything to do with me, now that I've joined a demographic that popular culture doesn't seem to register at all.
Check out what it's like to be trend-exempt — and why I'm grateful for it.
You can also check out author Sara Petersen and her new book, Momfluenced: Inside the Maddening, Picture-Perfect World of Mommy Influencer Culture, available on Amazon or (better yet) Bookshop.org — also the articles referenced on Vox and Wired.
