Re: worst trends at the momentYes, exactly! The wishy-washy colours drive me mad, it's all you can get in most of the fashion shops these days, and the gold buttons(Original post by Herbadacious)
...Brown.
Most people, particularly girls, seem to be wearing brown trousers, brown shoes, brown handbags, brown scarves etc. and these disgusting pastel/floral print blouses with tacky gold buttons, buttoned right up to the top of the neck. It's granny wear.
They also have this bizarre, deliberate 'messy up-do' thing, involving grasping their hair in a messy clump and pinning it on top of their heads. It's apparently meant to look casually classy, but it instead looks like a half-assed attempt to be formal. I don't even know why they're trying to be formal anyway, as they normally spend most of their time sat on garden walls with cans of beer.
The hair thing is ridiculous, half the girls I see have it like that, all practically identical copies of each other. It's miraculous because I wouldn't even know how to do my hair like that.
No offence to anyone who does wear this stuff though, you probably hate my clothes haha -
Re: worst trends at the momentThe actual 'vintage' ones I think can look good, but hey that's just my opinion(Original post by rednaxula)
People obsessed with wearing vintage clothing either from Topman's ridiculous collection or from second hand (vintage) shops.
How does anyone think this looks good?

Re: worst trends at the momentBut at least TOMS aim to try and give back, for every pair of shoes sold, friends of Toms donates a pair to a person in need...(Original post by #JayJay)

toms or whatever they are called. they just look really bad and I haven't seen one person that isn't a model, pull off wearing em -
Re: worst trends at the momentI agree. as a Roman Catholic it doesn't really annoy me but it confuses me why so many people at my school wear crosses and bracelets with crucifixes when they are Atheist.(Original post by 21stcenturyphantom)
I think anyone who wears religious iconography without having a shred of faith in that religion, and wearing it as a fashion accessory, is a complete idiot.
Believe what you want to believe, its cool, but i don't get wearing religious items if you are not religious lol. -

1. Paul's Boutique jackets. They annoy me sooooo much especially when the girl wearing it thinks she's classy and/ or unique.
2. Those bracelets with loads of pictures of Jesus, when most people who wear them aren't even religious!

O.O
I HATE. PAULS. BOUTIQUE. -
Re: worst trends at the momentmaybe because they like the shape.. and it's not as if it's an icon in itself. religious figures like jesus and like buddah for buddhists are obviously out of bounds if you don't believe in those religions.. but a cross is a shape and pattern.. it only holds significant meaning to those that believe in it.(Original post by JaCkT794)

Re: worst trends at the momentI disagree. I think florals and pastel colours are good and so are the gold buttons.. I guess that's just taste.(Original post by Herbadacious)

I wear shoes like that! Lol I find them incredibly comfy but because they're cheap and I don't wear them with socks they only last about 5 weeks(Original post by headbands,)
But at least TOMS aim to try and give back, for every pair of shoes sold, friends of Toms donates a pair to a person in need...
espadrilles my ones are called though, never heard of TOMS.
Is Paul's boutique that PB thing I see on bags i.e. I 'heart' PB? I work in Phonebank for a bank and I always think the person is saying they love Phonebank lol

Re: worst trends at the momentYes they are very similar, TOMS however is just the brand name for the shoes they make, it was originally a non for profit business however I'm not sure exactly how it works as of now, I'm sure you could find out more by googling(Original post by GossipGirl86)

And yes the 'PB' you see on bags is that of Pauls Boutique haha, they do sell other bags too without the 'PB' on as well

Re: worst trends at the moment
Men in skinny jeans. Seriously - HOW?
Shorts with bum hanging out - don't understand why they want everyone to see it!
Fake orange tan - Gross!
Maxi dresses - I'm sure I'll be in the minority with this one but I hate them and they're everywhere (or were).
Floral prints - not my thing.
I'm sure there are others that I can't think of at the moment though. -
Re: worst trends at the momentI'm not a fan of these either! Not quite sure why everybody adores them.(Original post by Peachtwist)

Re: worst trends at the momentYou're the only one thus far I've ever come across who agrees with me. At least someone does!(Original post by sezzasays)
