Thongs and bras that show

Flip flops EVERYWHERE

Skimpy as a "style"

Clothing items that are sheer that should not be. A t-shirt shouldn't be so thin that you have to wear a tank under it. Guess it's a laying thing but I don't dig it.
I'm firmly planted in denial

I hate when overweight girls where belly shirts and tight pants....they have to know that no one wants to see that....I'm not fat and I don't want to see my belly hanging out of my shirt! it just doesn't look good. Really think about it

Popped collars

Sweatshirts with skirts (come on, now...this is also probably because I caught my boyfriend checking out a girl with this get-up and he defended himself by saying he thought her outfit was cute...outfit my ass...)

Those godawful goucho things, whatever the fuck they're called, they're ugly (the wide, wide capris that look like skirts b/c they're so fuckin' flowy)

Ponchos. Played. Out.

And this one is so obvious: miniskirts with uggs. No damn sense in that one. They are called uggs for a reason.

cool

Yeah, when did gaucho's/culottes become popular again? lol I live in Holland, where I have seen NO ONE wear them this summer, and then I come to Mpls. and just about every girl is wearing them out on the weekends w/ heels. confuse It's funny how some things are popular in one country, and then in others, you can't even find it in stores. (not that I want to lol )

For starters...

* Men who tuck the front of their shirts/sweaters in so you can see their belt buckles, but leave the back hanging out. (Damn you Carson Kresley!)

* Girls who tuck their pant legs into their socks. :wtf:

* People who leave the designer tag on the sleeve of a new overcoat or suit.

* Guys who wear their pants intentionally hanging off their butt.

* Gold teeth.

* Cut-off shorts, Daisy Dukes or clam diggers on guys.

* Loose wife beaters

* Too much jewelry

* Overly matched outfits, accesories, makeup, etc.

* Too many visible logos or ones that are big and obnoxious

* Grown-ass men in rap-star-gone-fashion-designer clothes

* mustaches (without an accompanying goatee)

* Beards (...except on black dudes or Amish guys. A nicely groomed beard can look great on a bruh, and those mustache-less beards on Amish dudes look hot.)

* Overly groomed eyebrows on men

* Women with poorly matched fake hair texture and/or color

* Too much cleavage

* Poorly matched lip liner

* Long, curly fry finger nails

* Baseball caps with sunglasses

* Long, dirty-looking hair

* A bad dye job

* Men who unbutton half their buttons then drape their collar halfway down their backs.

* Sexually suggestive or childish tattoos

* Guys, especially gay club types, who look like they're on Abercrombie & Fitch's payroll

*Haircuts that are too perfectly lined (they look like helmets)

Ugh! You know every "trendsetter" is gonna be tramping around town with those bitches. I just don't get it. I tried a pair on in a department store the other day, just to see what they looked like on me (I swear) and they WERE, in fact, the dumbest-looking article of clothing I have ever worn. I mean, pick one. Capris or skirt. Just one. Don't combine that shit. feeling ill

I don't know how much grooming is "overly groomed," but I think having my eyebrows waxed is better than a unibrow. shake

Groomed brows are OK, but when you start to look like Joan Crawford, you need to stop.

...And I think unibrows are sexy.

I hate those things, too. They are ridiculous.

OH, and I hate those tops everyone's wearing now...

FIrst of all, when did it become cool to look like a prostitute by going out in a silk cami...

THEN, you've got those shirts that are tight at the boobs and then loose under that. They're not flattering to any body type, really. It makes fat girls look fatter, and skinny girls look pregnant. WTF is cool about looking pregnant when you're not?

I'm not sure what those tops are called, but damn I hate them!

Yeah, those blousy early 70s smock tops. lol I LOVE the 70s and most of its fashion, but those are really unflattering. They look cute on the rack, but every time I tried one on this spring, I just looked pregnant. confused

I swear everyone copied my silk cami thing though. lol I started wearing those years ago because I have a lot of my mom's vintage stuff from the late 60s and I wear it now. So I always wear her camis from back then. lol All of the sudden I saw them everywhere in the store last year. hrmph

There are very few fashion things I hate... I think the right person can pull off just about anything and I like the differences in styles and whatnot.
The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is the wearing of pants even partway or well below the ass. It just doesn't look good on anybody.
