Trends you hate

[mrsg123]

Surely you have some??

[mrsg123]

Crop tops!

[carylee07]

High waisted shorts

[aak0517]

Birkenstocks. Lol

For real though, I agree with carylee07- high waisted shorts. Also destroyed denim shorts. We all know I love a good distressed denim but shorts that are ripped to shreds and are pretty much denim granny panties with a bunch of strings hanging down which are also worn with stilettos? No.

(Note that this is a pic from a very popular blogger with a public IG profile and over 70k followers, so I'm not sharing anyone's private photo without permission lol)

High waisted anything!

[Nina]

I agree.. high waisted anything.. especially with those little crop tops. Bleck

[315]

Overalls. Can we add that to the list?

And, I will say that I am drawn to rompers/jumpsuits/pantsuits like a moth to a flame. But I just can't wrap my head around the bathroom issue. It's an engineering thing, not a style thing.

[315]

You know, like this. OP I love you, but no. If it were just regular cutoffs, minus the fuzzy purse, then we'd be talking.

[carylee07]

Oooh speaking of shorts I hate- the kind where the pockets hang out from under. Either self made or store bought, I just don't know of a time where I've ever said- man, I wish my pockets were showing!

high waisted stuff
Neon
damn pants hanging around your ass. pull them up and put on a belt
tramp stamps
tattoos (damn skippy they are trendy right now)
Anything one of those f'ing Kardashians wear
Metallic heel on a shoe that doesn't match the rest of the shoe
Overalls (both long and short)
Acid washed anything
Booties with skirts or dresses

I LOVE booties with skirts/dresses if styled right! Lol

I LOVE crop tops and high waisted skirts. Love them.
I like just a thin sliver of skin exposed and I love how high waisted skirts define my waist.

[kirstinb]

This is what I'm sick of:

By the time you realize you actually like a trend, pinterest/fashion blogs/etc have already made it so ubiquitous, you no longer want to partake in it. Early this year, I discovered Stela9 bags. It took me awhile to pull the trigger since they were so pricey. Eventually, I ordered one of the weekender bags, and by the time it came, I noticed these boho type bags EVERYWHERE---from Anthro to pinterest to F21. And you know, once it hits F21, trend might as well be over. I ended up giving it to my niece as a graduation present.

Ombre hair, especially the blonde with dark on top.. sorry ladies! It just reminds me of really bad roots, I can't get past it

Yes! And I hate to give her credit, but Kim K looks pretty good in them

I think with this trend, you have to pay for quality to make sure both the top and skirt have a tailored look.

I think this one looks classy:

Ditto others on:
crop tops
high waisted short shorts
acid wash
birks

Also:
overalls
Hunters

[carylee07]

I think there should be another thread called- trends I like but would never do.

Bc I like the crop top/high waisted skirt look but that would highlight my worst problem area, so I would never ever do it. But if I had the abs, yes I would!

I can't jump on the Birkenstock trend either. But I didn't like them when they were big back in the day. Just not my style.

A friend and I were just discussing this! What's funny though is that in some cases, what's saturated in blog land does not match real life. I haven't see anyone wearing overalls or a tulle skirt in real life. But I'm in the Midwest so I'm sure this varies everywhere. Same thing with Birkenstocks - I see them on a different demographic than the trendy fashionista. (Aka my mother in law.)

Also- when the Target collabos come out, I'm always freaked that someone at work will have my exact piece because everything is everywhere. I know someone here brought this up already but I'm only remembering her real name not her screen name so I will just call her H--- that even though we may see Target collabo stuff everywhere on line, it doesn't necessarily translate into real life. And it's true. I have yet to see anyone in real life wearing something from the Target collabs.

Just interesting (and boo face) that something you liked actually went "mainstream"!

[moreace01]

Pants that look rather similar to zubaz. wtf people...

There is not much difference between this hideousness:




And this:

[aqualuv]

Lol at some of these. mryrcn Tramp stamp, check, tattoos, check, skirts with booties, check! Hahaha!

I like crop tops if they are styled right and I feel like they have a time and place for them. If I had the body for them I would certainly wear them. But likely while on vacation with H, not just to go to the grocery store or a nice dinner out. Or I would even wear a crop top in Vegas. Again, a time and a place for them.

ETA: I don't think I was clear in my first sentence. Some of these trends I already do/have. So I was saying I have a tramp stamp, I have tattoos and I wear skirts with booties. So clearly I am already a fashion don't to some of you. Lol

super short denim cutoffs where the pockets can be seen past the hem

super high platforms

drapey patterned pants

trying to look like a bum - I swear the teenage girls around here try to look a hot mess, and I do not understand.at.all.

lingerie as regular clothing (I'm looking at you, Rihanna).

[mellymel]

Crop tops for plus size. Seriously - Eloquii - you are making me cry at my choices!!

[seven7devils]

I love crop tops and I'm technically plus sized at a size 12. I think it looks cute if you wear a high-waisted a-line skirt and the crop top only shows a small sliver of skin.

I don't love:

overalls
Birkenstocks
Tribal print EVERYTHING
Floral leggings worn as pants
Canadian suits (denim on top and denim on bottom)

I used to be in this camp. But I love wearing a chambray with jeans here and there. They have to be different shades (very dark on top/bottom and light on the other).

Big, fat, crazy geometric caterpillar eyebrows and heavy contouring.

[bloom17]

Those sandals that I see bloggers wearing that tie all the way up to their knee. I think they are so ugly and look uncomfortable.

[ralphlauren]

Belted cardigans are plain terrible. They never ever look good and it is such a old terrible trend. I wish it would die already

I hate booties too

[Alex]

Hi-low skirts/dresses.
Neon. I'm fine with a pair of neon sneakers with black workout gear but that's it.
Short shorts with the pockets hanging out.
Hunters. I grew up on on a farm and don't get the deal with shiny gum boots.

315 what is this bathroom tissue you mentioned? 

Bathroom issue, not bathroom tissue.

I can't imagine how women pee when wearing rompers. Am I the only one that doesn't like the idea of stripping down nekked just to use the bathroom. Or maybe it's because I drink a lot and have a small bladder. That might be better suited to the confessions/flameful post, though.
