Worst Trend of 2005

[CommeDesChloe]

The whole pop punk look, especially on boys. Stripey polo's teamed with studded belt, jeans round **** boxers showing and emo'd converse, actually this was exactly the same way girls wore the look so each gender were equally urrrgh

Im really really sick of the whole "american summer cali surf girl " crap thats everywhere!! This includes all the crappy logo tees and cuffed jeans with flip flops (especially those tall chunky foam ones! ~eew!) I hete this look on guys too, its so juvenile!
Also, boho is so ugly, and so are those nasty shapeless sequin blob purses~! How did these things become fashionable?

I hate skinny jeans- The'yre just getting here, but I already cant wait for them to be gone-

Boho was originally a breath of fresh air, but suffered total overkill this summer. I didn't work it because it's not me at all, but I thought it looked alright for a while. Too bad.
I have had it with Juicy Couture sets, OK for home, but not outside. Especially paired with the IT-bag du jour. Oh no.

Exactly what I was thinking! I liked boho at first, but sometime in the middle of june the whole thing got REALLY tired.

gaucho pants. "vinatage" beatles shirts from target.

I just don't understand how it can be "vintage" if its from Target.

 

[Kirai]

Those black slinky, parachute like pants I see everywhere. With those flashy little belts. f*cking GO DIE IN A SEWER with those on.

Sorry! It was only cool when MC Hammer did it.

Still sequins! Are they gone yet?

 

[tvsnow]

^
... I haven't been outside/informed of their disappearance, but I'd still wear some sunglasses to outings, polka dot.

 

[polka_dot]

^ I wouldn't doubt it.

-cowboy boots and hats
-eyeliner for men (eg Bille Joe Armstrong and Brandon Flowers)
-UGGs (are they still being worn by the sane?!?!?!?)
-huge-***, floor-sweeping skirts that make women look like bagladies
-Kanye West-inspired pastel golf-wear

Haha Boho totally..
Even Sienna Miller.. who started it absolutly hates it now because everyone just took it and over-over-over used it..
Quoted from style.com:
"No more boho chic! Those two words make me sick now. I feel less hippie. I just don't want to wear anything floaty or coin-belty ever again. No more gilets"—she means vests—"or cowboy boots!" "I have all this beautiful stuff from the sixties and seventies that I collected and love—and now someone can get it for like £10 in River Island"—a British high-street store—"and there are twelve-year-olds wearing exact perfect replicas of my mother's Moroccan belt. It's bizarre."


haha so true

I agree. Skinny jeans have to go too... but the one plague I want to fight the hardest is the knockoff disease that is sickening the world...*

god, i know! i've never liked this whole look. luckily, it's not that big around my area. but even seeing people who are supposed to portray california teenagers in movies or on tv wearing it drives me insane.

BOHO POSEURS SHOULD DIE. Well, not the people, just the awful clothing.

Actually, I have four I really didn't like. I'll rate the worst trends in descending order (last to first).

5. Shrugs and Cropped Jackets - Maybe I didn't get into this look too much because I haven't seen too many ladies who actually look great in these. I don't know, cropped jacket with some sort of long garment... didn't seem to be a good look from what I've seen. They are probably better on their own (except for button-up mini jackets. You want to wear something sexy or flirty with that), but I don't really dig shrugs.

4. Skinny Jeans and Pants - I'm going to rank this #4 because I haven't seen too many of them to really judge. Personally, I hate leggings. No style, no flow, it's like water or air- just there. I like jeans with a little flare. I'd even like some cute ladies in 70's style bellbottoms, palazzo pants, or wide-leg styles. But I'd save skinny for tight capri pants. Don't see anything much flattering about skinny pants.

3. Bermuda-Style Shorts - I've seen skinny Bermuda-style jeans on some ladies, and I don't like it. I'm talking about the shorts that are somewhat long, somewhat short. Maybe even like bicycle shorts. I'm not turned on by the look.

2. UGG Winter-Type Boots - Many people don't like UGGs. I don't like those calf or ankle-length boots, but can't give out the exact name of the shoes I'm thinking of. I see them when it's cold, but it's not a lovely combination to me. The more expensive Fluff Momma boots can be cute, maybe even sexy depending upon its wearer, but not the popular UGG boots mostly seen with being tucked into boots.

1. Jeans Tucked Into Boots - I can get what the look signifies, but it doesn't work in my view. In Houston, a day can be as cold as maybe 50 or 60 degrees, and just the look of wearing boots tucked with jeans isn't working, I'm sorry. If you're going to shot off boots, you have one of three options- skirts, some shorts, and gauchos. I prefer flares and drapey pants shown, but not jeans into boots. Totally unsexy to me. It's more of "why did ladies choose to look like this?" to me.

^^ I agree with your choices 100%.

I can't tell you how many times I looked through the clothing racks, spotted a nice cardigan or sweater, then pulled it all the way off the rack and saw the cropped shrug element to it and put it back. What happened to nice waist/hip length cardigans?!

 

[designme]

Oh! And not to mention I've seen wayy too many people wearing at least 3-4 of those trends all at once!

Someone who feels my pain in this city.

Now would you do me a favor and broadcast this on loudspeaker to every trendwhore in highschool?
