GettyThought ‘glitter boobs’ were the all the rage? You need to step it up a bit. They’re so 2017. Apparently it’s now about the nipple sticker.
The new fashion accessory was seen all over the shop at Lollapalooza in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Festival-goers were snapped adorning their nipple stickers proudly as they basked in the warm weather.
GettyIt comes after last year’s glitter boobs festival trend, which to be fair, wasn’t so much a trend as it was a form of art.
Many people decided to take it one step further by bumping it up to the glitter leotard or the ‘glitter bod.’
GettyThis essentially involved covering your entire body in glitter and making it look like you’re in fact wearing a catsuit.
The leotard version was exactly what it said on the tin and involved, well, creating a leotard out of glitter, so it looks like you’re wearing a glittery top, which goes all the way down to the crotch.

Glitter nipples gathered momentum after US model Binx Walton walked down the Saint Laurent runway at Paris Fashion Week SS17 with her left boob decorated in silver studs.
2018’s trends have been simpler in comparison, like the ‘engagement piercing’.
Dermal or microdermal piercings can be done anywhere on the body and stand out from ear or nose piercings on the basis they can be but pretty much anywhere with a flat surface.
A piercer based out of Toronto called Martine told INSIDER:
As long as the piercer uses sterilised tools and the client does their part to keep it clean, the risk of infection is very low.
It doesn’t work for everyone. It is sometimes rejected or migrated by the body.
She added:
I think dermal engagement rings are a fun, modern way to express your love. Rings you can take off or lose. Dermals, like diamonds, are forever.
I can drink to that. As for other trends… not so much. Take the ‘halo brows’ for example:
And don’t even get me started on the McDonald’s brow:
McDonald’s brows’ are achieved when the fashionista makes their existing brows invisible using powder and concealer, then painting on faux brows as high as possible to mirror the iconic golden arches.
Something about the McDonald’s brows seems just that little bit worse to me, compared with the Nike ones from last year. Though they’re both abominations, McDonald’s brows seem extra capitalistic.
Here’s hoping by the end of the year it’ll still be acceptable to have normal eyebrows. Could just be me being boring, though. Maybe I’ll surrender and start a whole new body hair craze.
As for the nipple stickers, they wouldn’t be a terrible shout for me, and others like me, whose taste for life’s guilty pleasures has left them with a discreet yet discernible rack of their own.
Maybe it’s for the best I carry on drinking Guinness and allow myself to balloon to an eye-watering DD chest, because at least then I’ll be able to wear nipple stickers, and look cool.
