    6. Tighty whiteys are men’s white cotton briefs thought to be old fashioned.

    8. Trashion is slang for clothes that people make using recycled items that some would consider trash, such as skirts made out of magazine pages.
    9. Athleisure are clothes that people wear to the office and can go right to the gym without changing.
    10. Androg, short for androgynous and is used when describing fashions that could be worn by males or females.
    11. Shooties, this is the nickname for this year’s half shoe/half boot combo that is all the rage.  Unfortunately, it only looks good on a select few.
