What trends are so 2024?
Ndalila NghiwewelekwaThe trend we should leave behind is the over-reliance on over-polished and inauthentic social media aesthetics in the name of being “aesthetically pleasing”. Let’s normalise posting more raw, unfiltered and real content sometimes and not always chase perfection.Sacharias Shuuya
Celebrity obsession has overstayed its welcome. Idolizing curated lives fuels unhealthy comparisons and distracts from personal growth. Instead, let’s celebrate local heroes, focus on meaningful achievements, and limit gossip consumption. In 2025, prioritise authenticity, support peers and find inspiration in real, relatable role models to build a more grounded and confident mindset.

The trend of tardiness. We got use to not making or giving 110% of ourselves and not being on time or informed enough. Going out there and putting myself out there to accomplish dreams or callings that are destined for me means I can’t procrastinate or be lazy.
Alfons HeitaPersonally, we gotta let go of baggy and overly baggy clothes because sometimes it just looks like you’re wearing curtains and people tend to dress the same, limiting creativity. In my opinion wearing an oversized hoody, baggy jeans and Jordans is not style.
Grace ShuuyaI think we should leave trying to play the toxic friend/partner in 2024. Fall in love, guys. Make real friends, get a cute hobby, visit a pet shop... open your hearts to the possibility of recognising God and His blessings. Leave the imaginary haters behind and live an authentic, soft life. Collect memories not trauma!
