Trends You Are Sick Of #1

[dumbfairy]

i like the shredded tee trend but it's getting raped by all the bloggers..

Erin Wasson has a lot to answer for for her 'trends'

 

[ElleLesley]

Don't have a personal vendetta towards a 'trend', it's more or so you how calibrate it all - I hate the complete 'try-hard/hipster' look and the 'teh so trendy mall rat'; simply because most who do, have hardly a clue what looks good on them if it weren't plaster against some A&F mannequin.

Try Hards in general will always be a bad look. You can tell from how people ware there clothes, you get this vibe like they really are trying to look oh-so-fashion or oh-so-A&F-clone.
Otherwise, all clothes is good clothes. Well, to a certain agree anyhow lol.

I agree with you. People that try so hard just look ridiculous at times. For example I went on an interview the other day for an internship at a magazine. Both of the girls there were done up to the point were they looked like they spent hours picking out their clothes and doing their makeup. Fashion is about knowing what looks good and what looks good on you. I am sure those girls felt ridiculous because they sure did look it. LOL.

check or plaid

tops or bags ...or worse, top AND bag with skinny jeans and UO boots or chucks or vans.

what i hate is when people dress badly, but do care about the way they look. those who are motivated by vanity instead of personal expression, but have no class or sense of fashion to back it up. those who maintain their awful beauty routine because they think they "have to" otherwise they don't look good. this includes: french manicures, cheap highlights, bad fake tan, unflattering makeup, tadpole eyebrows, knockoffs, label wh*ring, etc. if you have a sense of style, you can make it work without all that crap.

Couldnt agree more ! I see that a lot ,sadly...The funny thing is all they think they look so 'in' whereas in reality this is just pathetic and ridiculous lol...

Ill add to the list : noticable hair extentions, hair scarves that dont go well with outfits or face shape at all, neck chains, etc.

Welcome to the fashion spot btw

latex/lurex leggins
Uggs
sweatpants outside the house (although that one's a rariety here in Germany)
worn-out plastic flip-flops (just get a new pair already, if you have to wear them at all, they're not THAT expensive)
denim mini skirts
holey, frayed, bleached jeans
neck-tied tops (look bad on most women with bigger breasts, and if you wear those wear a damn bra already)
bare tummies
too much make-up
plucked eyebrows
overly tanned skin (fried chicken anyone?)
the Emo look

I could go on forever...

I basically agree with everything you mentioned.

Unfortunately where I live women (almost always between 30 and 40) tend to think it's trendy to leave the house in a track suit and Ugg boots. I often see it in my neighborhood.

Velony, really track suits and Ugg boots in Germany?? I thought this is popular in LA - haven't seen it in Europe...much, but I'm usually in the business center of the cities...

 

[gossiping]

oh yeah i am sick of denim skirts too, especially ones with rips.

i agree with halterneck tops...especially if you have wide shoulders

- i hate those black hoodies with those death metal bands like slipknot or whatever
- those "hippie" hairbands
- tartan jackets
- fur/faux fur especially leopard print...so over that

 

[daisybella]

Denim mini skirts with uggs (double sickness for bare legs in winter)
Jeans with diamante all over (this is everywhere at my college)

Yep, I know it's unbelievable but I just saw this woman the other day walking down my street. And it's not the first time. I think all those woman wearing that have read too much of the German InStyle because this "LA look" promoted by Paris Hilton and Co. has been featured in it a couple of times. Unfortunately I must say because most readers automatically think it's totally trendy.

I hate the entire LA look in general: Juicy Couture and other tacky velour and terry track suits in bold colors with or w/o something written on the back, Uggs, Ed Hardy ... . So sick of it.

 

[Tondo]

Dita von Teese!!!!!! i mean her ultra-contrived persona.

also: black, white, and red color schemes.

I don't think there can be any non-contrived way to achieve Dita's meticulous look. Such style cannot be done "effortlessly". I completely respect and adore her choice and how hard she has to try to stick to it. That's what makes her different and brings her fame and business. It's a life-style choice too.

 

[Tondo]

i see where you're coming from, but she doesn't convince me. a different woman would be able to pull it off better. the key word is "try". i can't get it out of my head that "Dita" is just another chick from the suburbs, with nothing intrinsically interesting, trying to be exotic. her persona seems so removed from her background, she conjured it out of nowhere, and it comes off as inauthentic. of course, these are just my impressions & maybe i'm being presumptuous.

Poor you! It's not as bad here although I see quite a bit of trashily dressed school girls in the streets...

And I agree about the L.A. style being promoted in magazines... it's just ridiculous. That's not style, that's just classless.

This has been the Irish tween and teen uniform for waaaaaay too long now!!

I'm so so so damn sick of fake tan!! It never looks good, it never looks natural, it never will. Just go away!
Ballet pumps that are falling apart at the soles
That strarightened then badly backcombed hair that is everywhere..
Neon-coloured clothing

 

[dumbfairy]

^Haha I love staring at the girls with the hair like that. One of my flatmates does it and she spends forever on her hair trying to make it look messy and 'cool' or whatever the word the kids use it these days whereas mine looks like that naturally when I wake up,no work involved

And also about the falling apart ballet pumps,when the sole kinda flaps onto the pavement. Ew

 

[Fashionsta]

Too many girls in uggs and jeans skirts... its so boring why do they do it?

haha, i so agree with you . this magazine features often the most tackiest clothes. Espacially when they try to show how to imitate a certain "star-look" (like, seriously, who wants to look like that?? )

 

[luisa]

i mean, who wants to look like Paris Hilton??
