    I don't like the whole leggings as pants things, it looks trashy. Put those under a dress or skirt, please. Or wear an over-sized shirt/sweatshirt. ;-;

    I also don't like anything overly sparkly or whatever. I saw a girl at my school wearing a shirt with a big heart on the front that was ALL sparkle. She would be walking down the hall and there would be ten pounds of glitter where she was walking...

    @ olober;
    I'm not a fan of the leggings thing either, it's fine if it's under a dress or whatever but if I can practically see your butt crack it's a big no no.

    - Leggings as pants. This is ugly. UGLY. Especially when they're the tan ones (which makes me think they're not wearing anything at all), the leopard print ones (just...ew) and the tribal print whatever kind. Just ugly. A long top won't do it, in my opinion. They should be paired with a dress, skirt, or shorts. Also, don't wear ankle-length black leggings with flats. They make it look like you have scrawny little bird legs. If leggings are that long, pair them with boots. The calf-length/knee-length leggings can be worn with flats, and I think look best with dresses and shorts. But even under a dress, leggings should be paired with shorts so that your underwear won't be visible.

    - Sagging pants. This especially grates on my nerves when the person wearing them is also wearing a belt. Like, did no one teach you how it works? Belts aren't for looks, they're to hold your pants up! Besides, who WANTS people to see their underwear? It's just a dumb look all around. Why is this still a thing?

    - See through clothing. I swear, women's fashion is just...ugh. It's almost impossible these days to get a nice black shirt that I won't have to wear a vest over just so my bra won't be on display. Even more frustrating, these shirts don't even LOOK see through until I try them on!

    - Too small pockets and no pockets at all. Women have to carry stuff too, you know, and not all of us want to haul a purse around. (For example, if I'm going to a show or a club, I don't want to worry about a purse. Coat check can be expensive sometimes.) The whole patch on your pants looking like a pocket thing is stupid and misleading, as well as pockets that are too small for my house key. MY HOUSE KEY. All I want is a nice pair of jeans that I can carry my phone in without worrying about it falling out because the pocket is too small. THAT IS NOT TOO MUCH TO ASK.

    - Short shorts with the pockets hanging out. That looks really trashy, not gonna lie.

    Sagging pants. lmfao I think everyone hates them but the people who wear them. In my opinion, and to me personally, it looks bad. Pants halfway down legs with underwear/boxers showing - no. Just no. I don't want to know what you're wearing underneath your clothing today, what material/brand your underwear is, etc. If i wanted to, I'd ask. They also make it look like that person has really short legs and a long torso or something, and that's not attractive - not to me anyways.

    As for short shorts, as long as they don't curve up like underwear, I like them :)
    Some short shorts have specially designed pockets that hang out underneath the material - yes - but some look really good. Like i have a pair and the pockets are sparkly and they look really nice!! c: But if it's just a tuft of material then no, I don't like it.

    @Golden Paws: Once I saw a guy who wore sagging pants over sagging basketball shorts over their underwear. I just...I don't even... Facepalm Not even that long ago I saw a guy who was sagging, and he actually PULLED HIS SHIRT DOWN TO COVER HIS UNDERWEAR.

    Yeah when the shorts curve up like underwear, that can be a little weird, lol. I've got a couple pairs of shorts but even in the summer I hardly wear them because it seems like, a lot of times, they're designed to be as short as humanly possible. I usually just wear them under my dresses so I can do things like bend over, crouch (I have to crouch a lot at work since I work in a library), and/or cross my legs without worrying about flashing my underwear at someone, lol.

    Personally, I'm glad to see the regular clothes + house slippers trend dying. Like, a girl could be wearing a nice t-shirt or blouse and, say, skinny jeans and it's a cute outfit, and then...house slippers. They can totally ruin what otherwise would be a nice outfit, and I'd see girls wearing it at the mall. It'd be one thing if it was a lazy day and they were just making a quick run to a convenience store, but IMO, that's the only time when such a thing would be acceptable. Otherwise it looks like the wearer couldn't be bothered to find an actual pair of outside-the-house shoes to finish off the look (converse/sneakers, flats, flip-flops, etc).

    I really can't get into the denim shorts over tights thing. What are these girls doing, auditioning for Peter Pan?

    Granted, I've seen it done well and with style. Rarely.

    I don't mind many of the things here. I passed that scene stage in the clear without ever having rainbow hair, I lost Crocs in grade school, I've never worn bootie shorts in my life because I'm way too fat for them, ew.

    I do, however, like wearing slacks and button-downs. I don't like those girlie shirts. Slacks, dress-shoes, a nice button-down, simple hair, simple makeup will do the trick.

    I hate those nasty tribal/striped leggings. There are three girls at my school who wear them and they all have huge butts and thighs and it's just so nasty. Hand

    That is all.

    This, for fuck's sake. Instant turn-off, literally.
    Also, I don't get the recent obsession with chinos. I think it came about with One Direction and similar, but yeah, all lads seem to wear them here, and I don't really see the appeal.

    I recently found out what a trend was called after seeing it all over the place.
    "Puppy dog eyes," a variant of the cat eye / winged eyeliner that makes the eye droopy, elongated, and "puppy" like.

    - Chunky chain necklaces and bracelets.
    - Denim pantsuits.
    - Platforms with the foam material-like heel.
    - Exactly matching the colour of shoes to accessories and even more that it's uniform and boring.
    (i.e. Like those Polyvore sets where people pair a black dress with purple high heels, a purple purse, a purple necklace,. . .)
    - Dresses / pants without pockets or fake / decoration pockets. D:
    - Corduroy.
    - Cable knit.
    - Velvet.
    - & getting sick of seeing black / dark brunette to light / honey blonde ombré.

    I get irrationally angry whenever I see someone wearing those giant black-framed non-prescription glasses, especially if they don't have any lenses Ranting.

    I can't stand seeing guys wear their pants so oversized they're falling down to their knees as they walk and they keep trying to pull them up Facepalm.

    I also hate seeing girls wear leggings as pants, and Ugg boots are hideous. It's even worse when they wear them together.

    Lace dresses like this, or the ones with sleeves. I just always see them trying to be pulled off as 'vintage' or in a 'vintage' inspired outfit and just . . . no.

    Also boyfriend jeans.

    - Flower crowns. Actually saw someone wearing one IRL and had to double take. Good lord.
    - Nike Air Max shoes. I own Nike Dunks and the Max ones are cropping up and I cannot even. Facepalm So ugly.
    - Jelly shoes that are a throwback to the 80s / 90s. Why.
    - Duck feet nails. Neutral

    Those bikini tops with the hanky/ruffle thing because those seem to be the only tops they're selling this season and they are certainly not big-boob friendly.

    - Legging. Leggings are bad and jeggings are just worse. They're ugly so stop wearing it, people! For God's sake!
    - Sneaker-heels. I don't know what doofus who invented these but I know the inventor wasn't in their right mind. Girls in my college like to wear sneaker-heels, and to anyone who use these I will judge you so hard.
    - Platforms with high foams. WHY? For me people who use these are weird. Why don't they wear high-heels than these platforms? Platforms shoes are made to walk through flood.
    - Scene people. I just don't know why would they dress up like that.
    - Long v-neck. NOOOOOPPPEEE!
    - Tight tshirts. I don't know, maybe it will boost your confidence, but when you go all sweaty, I'll easily could see sweats form on your armpits. BYE!

    Floral.

    Don't get me wrong, I don't hate floral, just that everything this season is floral print and I mean everything. I have spent years collecting enough floral in my wardrobe so I don't need any more, but this season every little article of clothing under the sun is floral and when I go shopping I want to buy stuff I don't already have anything similar to.
