What are your top 10 fashion faux pas?

Here's one of mine:

Top 10 fashion trends (some of this is straight DC style) I followed in the past for which I hope no pictures are ever made public:

10. Coca Cola Sweatshirt and sweatpants with one leg rolled up to the knee
9. Two-tone jeans (AJs, Jordache, USED)
8. Triple Fat Goose Jacket
7. High top fade
6. Colored dress shirts with white collars and thin black leather ties
5. Tie dye tshirt with matching baggy pants
4. Rayon pants and matching rayon print dress shirt (anything rayon for that matter)
3. Polka dotted clothes (a la Kwame)
2. Metal tipped patent leather shoes
1. MC hammer pants (worn with those patent leather shoes) - perfect to do the Running Man
.
EDIT THE TITLE DUE TO FAUX PAS.

Yes it was! wink

The motivation for me getting into the art of hairstyling was my uncanny ability to know what looks good on a person. So I figured, why not make money doing it! biggrin

I do my own hair... sad I don't want to, but I only trust me now.

lol I never understood how folks I know in college could give themselves a fade with the help of mirrors. Sheeit I get confused just lookin at one mirror cuz of the reversed image, much less using two to fade the back of my head.

I think I misunderstood this thread. I REFUSE to wear Tommy Hilfiger. I hate everything about his clothing and what it represents.

As for my own style, ten certainly isn't enough!
