Millennials horrified after mum reveals new Gen Alpha trends

A horrified mum has revealed the Gen Alpha trends that millennials would be disappointed by and it's blowing people's minds.

Every generation has ‘ins’ and ‘outs’ - what was cool in the 90s, wasn’t particularly cool in the 00s, and that's just the way it goes.

And let's be honest, I very much doubt that ‘clean girl aesthetic’ was a thing in the 80s.

Faith Hitchon, mum to a Gen Alpha child, has hilariously revealed on TikTok all the new trends that you apparently need to get on board with, and there's so many she's managed to make an entire series out of it.

The Los Angeles-based mum firstly revealed that skinny jeans are out…

You heard us, anything tight to your leg is a crime, according to Gen Alpha.

In the video, she said: “Do not even think about wearing pants that even hint at being tight.

“Don't even try it.

“A straight-leg jean is like, barely making the mark.

“If you do anything, that's the takeaway.”

Noted.

She also pointed out that hoodies seem to be the only jumper-like item that is acceptable.

She added: “Hoodies, hoodies, hoodies, there is nay a cardigan in sight.

“There are barely any jackets.

“It's all about hoodies.”

The next trend is beauty-related, and it’s tiny star stickers for spots on your face - sounds bizarre, we know.

She said: “Starface pimple patches are social currency.

“They are also a replacement for, like, money, I've been told.

“So, you can trade them for other things, but they're absolutely an accessory, not just a necessity, but they're both.”

In a similar clip, she spoke about something that was personal to her.

The mum said: “This next one is also very much an attack on millennials, and I apologise in advance, because it hurts me too.

“Throwing up a cute peace sign when you're trying to take a cute, fun selfie is no longer a thing.

"In fact, my daughter always tells me it's 'cringe' when I do it.

“It is, however, acceptable to do a heart, or if you really want to impress, you can do the middle finger big heart.”

Now just when you thought you might have gotten to grips with new trends, maybe uttering the word ‘slay’ one too many times, apparently that’s now out too.

One person in the comments said: “I can’t stop saying slay, it’s an addiction at this point.”

Another added: “As a mom to a 13-year-old I can attest that this is correct.”

Well, i'm knackered just trying to keep up with all that...
