Expert Answer

Turn your mission statement into a hashtag and use it consistently in your social media posts—just make sure that it isn't too long. It's one of the easiest ways to advance your mission statement and also make it a popular hashtag so people will identify you with that particular hashtag.

Expert Answer

For Fall, statement jackets are very popular, such as long trucker jackets, and long military-inspired jackets. Statement jackets like coat cardigans instead of wearing a blazer work well. This works across the board for men and women.

Question

I started a trend at school, but nobody knows that I'm the one behind it. A more popular girl has taken credit for it. How can I let them know that it was my idea without looking like a wannabe?

Community Answer

Prove it was your trend. Watch that Gossip Girl episode where Dan has to take credit for his book, and see how he does it. He's confident, and can back up his claim. That's what you should do.

What can I do if I am not allowed to have social media to spread the trend around?

Community Answer

Spread the trend around to your friends. They’ll probably tell other people.

Question

How do I start a trend in my school when I have to wear a uniform?

Community Answer

Try to change the way you wear your uniform, like for example if girls in your school wear ankle socks with their skirts or dresses, try wearing knee high socks instead. You could also wear cool accessories, or try a different hairstyle.

Question

What can I do to make my friends support my other friend?

Community Answer

You can't "make" them, but you can have a talk with them about the importance of friends supporting each other. Remind them that they probably wouldn't like it very much if nobody supported them!
