    @ gleek
    Agreed about the sheer. It's a trend I was hoping would die off, but it still seems to be going strong. Hopefully it'll end when the summer does. Facepalm

    - Oxford shoes. I thought they'd finally died off but they seem to be back in full swing and just ugh.
    - Really gaudy and eccentric hair accessories.
    - Color-blocking. Some of it is super-cute, but a lot of it just looks misplaced and weird.
    - Printed pants. Facepalm
    - Peplum anything.

    The majority of floral patterns (especially on denim) because, to me, they don't look "vintage," they look like grandma wallpaper Facepalm

    I'm not paying fifty bucks for a pair of floral-patterned denim shorts just so I can look like I'm wearing grandma wallpaper on my ass Rolling Eyes

    I hate:
    - short shorts
    - floral patterns
    - color blocking
    - fur
    - animal print
    - body-con skirts/dresses
    - jeggings (I can't stand that word.)
    - Buddy Holly glasses (Otherwise known as "nerd glasses".)
    - shirts with stupid phrases and sayings on them
    - flip flops
    - when people wear t-shirts advertising bands that they don't even listen to
    - clothes with the brand name plastered all over the place
    - when guys wear their pants down to their knees
    - when girls wear a size too small on purpose
    - backwards baseball caps
    - "Ugg" boots
    - those knee-high Converse

    Whew. I think I'm done.

    Ugg boots. They’re just way too much like slippers and ruin people’s feet since they’re not supportive. And the fact that I’ve only ever seen them worn by celebrities and chavs.

    I don’t have much of a problem with Crocs. Okay, so they’re unpractical and unattractive to wear everyday, but if you’re in the garden or on the beach then they’re much more comfortable and supportive than flip flops.

    Clothes made of real animal fur.
    Skirts that are a ridiculous length and are meant to be that size.
    Giant hoop earrings. I can only see them ripping through the person’s ears.
    When people take 3D glasses from the cinema and pop the lenses out because they thing it looks cool (or maybe that’s just where I live...?)
    High heels. I just... I don’t understand. They’re painful, hard to walk in and can damage your feet.
    Shirts that purposefully show off cleavage/bra.
    I feel like shorts and tights have outlived themselves now. Everyone is wearing them, and it’s annoying me. Can no one think of anything different?
    The worst combination ever: Ugg boots, a too-tight shirt cropped at the stomach and baggy tracksuit bottoms. Large hoop earrings too.
    And I really hate when people get braces and glasses ‘because they’re cool and different.’ Anyone, such as myself, who’s suffering through both of those things could tell you that they aren’t cool or different. They’re painful, annoying and if you get the choice to wear them or not, say no.

    Cut-out dresses, only because all of the ones I've seen either have too much cut out or have like, awkward triangles cut out around the waist so that it looks like some weird, skin-colored belt.

    High-waisted shorts paired with crop shirts. Bleh.
    Leggings with denim print. My mother has some of those and they're terrible.
    The whole oversized sweater with short shorts so it looks like you have no pants on situation
    Wearing glasses because apparently they're "cool". They wouldn't be cool if you actually needed them to see Facepalm

    Tops and hoodies that have a brand name printed in huge letters across the front. Great, so you can afford Abercrombie and Fitch. Why do you need to show it off to everyone?

    I hate the whole swag thing -.-"
    And I'm definately not a fan of mainstream fashion.

    But...
    -Skirts that are way too short.
    -Short-shorts. Especially denim ones that look like underwear.
    -Wearing leggings/jeggings as pants. I can't stand it...
    - Crop tops, or whatever they're called.
    -Denim legwarmers.
    - Snapbacks and designer stuff...

    Ahaha. One time I had a Perfect Circle shirt (its a super crappy band) and I didnt know what it was until my neighbor said good band. Then I finally got it and never wore the shirt again. Pretty funny...

    I don't really like short shorts or gladiator sandals. Well I don't like sandals or heels in general. Unless the heels are boots but like the wedges. I don't like colored highlights in people's hair unless it is just like one strip of color in the front.

    -those jacket/top like thingies that you can wear over your singlets but flow down so that they cover your ass and half your thigh? I used to own one but I lost them and now whenever I see them I kind of feel as if they're being over killed. Eh.
    -tights that are worn as pants. I don't go out of my way to notice peoples' asses and panty lines but when they're wearing things like this, it's just like 'OH HELLO THERE, ASS, THIGHS & KNEES!'
    -checked 'man' shirts that girls wear. You know the kind that have been altered to fit girls better with the whole different hemming and all that. Way too many couples in my school think that wearing the same coloured checked shirt is cute. It's not, honestly.
    -knee high boots. We live in a tropical country. Unless you're going hiking or travelling to fucking Atlanta, I don't see why you would wear something like that.
    -Coloured hair; especially when everyone has it dyed to a specific shade for a fashion fad.
    -the whole 'scene' fashion sense.
    -messy hair that's been styled into looking messy. If you're going for a messy, just got out of bed look - don't brush your hair when you just get out of bed.
    -those 'vintage' or 'hipster' large framed glasses everyone's wearing. Lol. Who would have thunk that wearing glasses were in fashion now.
    I have more but I can't think of them right now.

    The whole wearing a highlighter colored bra under pastel colored shirts.

    I don't understand.

    Those tops that are short at the front but long at the back.

    When people wear leggings pulled up to their belly button, then white socks pulled over the leggings and a crop top. EW.

    The thing I hate the most are leggins that are so thin you can see peoples underwear when they don't even wear a top or jumper long enough to cover it up.

    Also denim on denim.

    Crocs. Dear God they're awful.

    Paul's Boutique. Around here it's been renamed "Paul's Whore House" simply because those who wear it round here tend to wear things which are a little... revealing...

    Those wide-rimmed extremely large glasses scene kids wear. I'm like "Gurl did you steal those from the cinema or something?"

    Scene kids in general. It's all so overrated.

    Denim skirts.

    Ear stretchers. They look like a cat's arse when they're taken out.

    - Huge sweaters with the necks cut out so that your bra straps show
    - Huge shirts with a whole bunch of holes cut in them
    - Glasses with the lenses poked out
    - Patterned skinny jeans
    - Really high wedge heels
    - Agreeing with the post above: really huge rhinestone sunglasses
