My 9 Fashion Pet Peeves

CAUTION: Snarky, sarcastic comments ahead.

Here is another one of my pet peeves, yes I know, I do have quite a bit (Here's my make-up one, lol). But who doesn't? Lol. Any way, I thought I would post something about what trends never looked good and never will. (In my opinion) If you guys would like to tell me what trends you could live without I would love to see those too! :)


1. First off, thongs. Well, thongs above pants. I mean, I'm sure some hormonal teenage guys don't mind getting to see a G-String peak out every once and awhile, but when it happens all the time...well...I'm sure you know what I am meaning to say. ;)



2. Shoulder Pads. Why yes, yes I would like to resemble a linebacker when I wear an otherwise feminine dress. Thank you.



3. Platform, well, anything. Self conscious about your height? Well, these babies can help you with that insecurity. But they might also contribute to a new, style-relatable, one.



4. Deep V-neck T-shirts. Well for guys anyway. Sorry, but I don't want to see your man-cleavage, no matter how defined your pecks actually are. Sorry.



5. Bling. You know the saying, "Worth you're weight in gold", well...you took that saying way too literally.



6. Crocs. I personally think that these shoes should only be worn for gardening, or in muddy, rainy weather. (At least the original ones, the newer ones they are coming out with are actually kind of cute!)



7. Velvet Track Suits. Uh, yea... about that.



8. Ed Hardy. Can you say trashy? Trashy.



  9. And lastly, those Ionic Nerd Glasses.  I mean, I'm all for unleashing your inner nerd. But, I just don't understand this trend. Like at all. Lol.





If you are offended, I apologize. If you disagree, leave me a comment as to why. If you have anything to add, I would LOVE to hear about it.

Have a great weekend! :)

  3. Thank you for visiting my blog! I had to swing by and have a look. I like your sense of humour and the fact you're willing to have people disagree with you. I think debate is great as long as it always stays respectful. I liked the list but have to confess I have a pair of velour sweatpants that I love wearing in winter because they're so comfy and cosy. Unfashionable and probably highly unflattering but because I'm cold I don't care ;) Now do you mind if I follow along. I think I have lots to learn from you. x

  7. Hahah I love this post.

    Definitely agree on the geek glasses, thongs, and well - everything else!

    Especially the man cleavage. I've seen so many weedy pale indie boys wearing deep V neck t-shirts to show off that one stray chest hair... Eugh!

  8. You're totally right.
    Great post! :)
    But I do think that shoulder pads and platforms can look good, you just have to know how to wear them!

  9. Hi, just popped in...
    I quite like crocs, although I've never had any.
    Velvet tracksuits are great as slop around the huse pyjamas, but I garee with everything else. Although the thongs themselves aren't the problem so much as the very, very, low rise jeans.

  12. Hahahahahaha I don't agree with all of them but I still think their funny, especially the first one. A friend and I went through this incident a couple of week ago. But the worst part was that there was no thong showing off. Actually there was NOTHING showing. So gross!

  16. Platforms to that extreme might be a little tasteless, but a nice 1" platform on a pair of heels can make them so much more comfortable to wear!

    My fashion peeves include jeans with holes, white sneakers, and being overtly matchy.

    Chic on the Cheap

  18. Absolutely agree with EVERYTHING!!!
    but above all the nerd glasses!!
    I believe only people who use them as accessories and not as a needed tool would really choose that awful and heavy shape!

  20. Agree with you on most of these. :D But I think Ed Hardy is not to blame, it's how you wear it. I have Ed Hardy shoes and jeans that doesn't yell "ED HARDY". :D And I Hardly never combine them. :D

    Don't you think those thongs are sexxxay? :D LOL, just kidding!

    Definitely follow you dear! Hope you can follow me back! :)

  25. thank you for your sweet comment on doasbg.blogspot.com

    You have an amazing blog too..
    love reading your posts
    this one in particular

    about the platform, i actually love them...
    well not the ones you pictured above.. lol normal ones that you can see on my blog..
    I'm almost 5.9 but i wear them so i look super tall lol..
    i also like shoulder pads, but in blazers and coats, not too heavy ones, i think they give an edge to the outfit if paired with some killer shoes..

    My pet peeve with fashion will have to be fanny packs, i see rhianna trying to bring them back, but i just hate them, they might be handy but they are fanny packs.. lol

  31. I agree with all of these except the shoes. Also I confess I wore crocs when I was in Orlando but I still believe my feet would have fallen off if I hadn't!

    I also think that Madonna should just be banned. Altogether.
    Love your blog! x

  32. This definitely made me laugh. I HATE when girls are showing their thongs. There's a girl / woman I work with who is in her thirties and her G-string is always showing at work!

    But I have to disagree with you about deep-V t-shirts. I love my man in them, in fact I order the American Apparel ones so I can ogle him. :)

  33. Awesome post; I definitely agree about the nerd glasses. I've seen girls who popped out the lenses of 3D glasses to wear the frames. It's funny because I remember when people back then were constantly saying things like "Ohh, four eyes!"

  34. Hey, I just found your blog and I blooming love it! New follower here :) x

  35. I love this post! i love platforms though, lovelovelove them.

    I feel like one color velour tracksuits are for 45 year old women who fake tan, workout and have to get their nails done every week. They also try to wear their 13 year old daughters jeans out in public..

    But those are just my own personal thoughts :)
