“One trend that I hope never comes back in style is the low, low, low hip hugs of the Y2K era,” Bailon-Houghton, 40, revealed exclusively to We weekly. 'I know you're trying to make it come back, [but] Let's not do that, because we need to be caught high-waisted, please. My abs are not what they used to be.”
During her tenure as a Cheetah Girl in the early years, Bailon-Houghton wore low-rise jeans alongside bandmates. Raven-Symoné, Kiley Williams And Sabrina Bryan.

“Our baby boy is here and we are so in love!” Bailon-Houghton wrote via Instagram. 'If you've been following our love story… you know our journey to having the baby has been very challenging.

While caring for her son, Bailon-Houghton has mastered the art of multitasking when it comes to beauty and fashion.
“[Here’s my] mom beauty hack to get out the door really quickly,” Bailon-Houghton shared Us. “I go into my son's bedroom, which is like his playroom, and I let him play, but I now have a little makeup bag in that room and a very small basket with my hair stuff in it so I can watch him and he's in a safe place, and I can get my hair and makeup done at the same time.”
Bailon-Houghton also shared that raising Ever has also helped her prioritize taking care of herself.
“I feel like when I was younger, I was absolutely terrible at going to sleep with my makeup on,” she explained. “But now, if you have a little boy and… [you’re] part of this nighttime routine that helps him fall asleep – I love that I take my makeup off every night [during] bath time with my son.”
