I love weird T-shirts. I'd definitely wear the 1984 one you were talking about making... be fitting with my constant comparisons of the current administration with Big Brother.

Things I hate:
-tapered-leg jeans, especially high-waisted ones. Yes, some people here wear those. Ewwww... give me my low-rise (no, not low enough to show off my ass crack on purpose) flared or wide-leg jeans any day.
-any sort of trousers with pleats in the front. Pleated skirts, yes; pleated trousers, no.
-when guys wear their pants so low and baggy it shows off four inches or so of their boxer shorts. I keep expecting them to walk right out of their pants. Ew.
-Pants with writing across the ass.
-Those T-shirts Abercrombie had... they had some kind of stupid demeaning slogans on them or something. Shirts with writing are cool, shirts with writing that implies the wearer is a dumbass or something are not cool.

Thongs are comfortable if you buy the right size. If they're too small you'll be pulling them out of your ass on a regular basis.

I'd have to say the "fashion" I hate the most would be those nasty grandma sweaters. You know.. the ones with giant flowers all over the front or snowmen.. or reindeer. Whatever the season may be. Grandmothers shouldn't even be wearing them!
Next in line would be tapered pants/jeans. People actually think that looks good? Ugh. Add on the boob high waist most tapered jeans come with and you've got a human size Snowcone!

I'm done.. heh

Yes, they are the right size and don't dig into my ass or anything like that. I can barely feel them, which I like. I swear I'm not crazy!

Huh?

You read my mind, I just saw one of those about three times today while I was christmas shopping. Even my boytoy was laughing at her. (plus we went into Fredrick's of Hollywood and amazingly enough the staff were also making comments about her... seems she must of stopped in every store just to show off her fuzziness.)

Hmm.. I can't stand over the top dress-up on a daily basis. Or a group of girls who look exactly the same.

Seasonal:

* Oh well nice one. In here (Puerto Rico) is a true disaster, people in "winter" use fuzzy jackets the fact is that in here (winter) is just like 86 degrees (hot)... in other words always is summer...
* Inside of the island the temperature drops to 70-60 (still hot).
* In the actual summer (107 degrees or more) you just se people mostly girls, almost naked!... the fact is that most of them are not slim! And the ones that have a “nice body” … Put a bag over their face!!! Please!!! In the case of men… well they don’t show much skin at all and again the same thing as girls … nice body, pas the bag…

- Still there are a few that look god and nice, very cute with a nice body! It’s a MIRACLE!

Other facts:

- The way people dress, as the music they like.

Rockers do look good. But imagine this -just mix rock, punk, and "reggeton" together... What in the fucking hell is that... I know that is their style...But oh my... just does not look ok!

- Dead people.
Well, in the funerary you see people with nice bright colors (red, green, blue) instead of the usual black and white.

Ugh, I have several fashion pet peeves:

-The visible thong. How can anyone find this attractive? Thongs are good if nobody can see them! That's why they're UNDERwear.
-Really baggy pants. I'm not saying guys should walk around in spandex, but if you can smuggle kitchen appliances in your jeans, there's a slight problem.
-Uggs. I swear ugg is short for ugly. They make people look like astronauts in the off-season.
-Rings and jewelry with initials or names on it. Really, are you HONESTLY going to forget what your name is? Do you check it midway through conversation to make sure that you've introduced yourself properly?

I just had to rant about that. *grin*

Hey, I have a ring that has my name and my fiance's name engraved on it. It's my engagement ring so I guess that's an exception to the rule. :P

Now the Department of Homeland Security 'handles' it, but that's another story.

Personally, I loooove babydoll tees! But I'm not a chunky teen trying to look hawt, either.



If you're toned you can definately pull off babydolls and mid-riff baring tees.

Ever notice those guys who wear combs in their afros? I mean they take one of those combs with a handle that look kinda like a paint brush, stick it onto their hair, and just leave it there. I just think that's a little weird.

I also saw this tacky hat a few days ago. It looked like a fedora made of fake fur.

And a little girl in ugg boots pointed me out to her fater on sunday cause I was wearing a top hat. Talk about rude.

p.s. I think ugg boots are supossed to mean caveman/cavewoman, but that's just my oppinion.

Those 'combs' are called picks and are uber-sexy.......er.....yeah, right. It's one of the silliest things to ever not go out of fashion!


Jazz, just be glad that you didn't have the girl walk right up to you and tell you that you were scary looking. That's disturbing, especially when you get the distinct impression that they are just repeating what their parents have just told them. That is rude.

BTW, have you introduced yourself, luv?

Fashion Disaster:

Bleach blondes with orange tans wearing neon orange earrings.

I can't begin to COUNT the number of people who do it at my school, either. We live in Louisiana, it's hot 9 months of the year, go outside, lay down! Get a REAL tan.

It's fine to wear spandex in public, as long as you're a superhero.

Sunglasses that cover your entire head (a la the Olsen twins).

Tube tops in size XXL.

Tube tops worn under overalls.

Cute little pumps that are obviously three sizes too small. One's feet should not be OOZING over the sides of one's shoes.

pajama bottoms. - “Oh look at me, I just rolled out of bed!”

lingerie tops- Anyone notice how women wear them with jeans? It looks as if they forgot something while they were getting dressed.

I personally hope that guys don't stop wearing the picks in their afros. I find it hysterical!! I think their sole purpose is for viewing pleasure.

Visible thongs are extremely distasteful, it happens alot at my school.

Noone mentioned the oversize fuzzy ponchos with strings hanging down so far it looks as if the proud owner may trip any second.

...Not all ponchos are bad though. You just have to make sure they wont be the cause of any trips to the emergency room.
