What the Friday?

Fashion. Whether or not you love it or hate it, it exists. It can be bad, it can be good, it can be outright heinous. Here a just a few of my favorite trends that I love to hate. They say all trends die out and then come back to life. Some things should die, and stay dead. Like Harry Potter (the character, not the series. too soon?). Here are some 'fashion' trends that just should never have come into existence.

1. Sandal Boots (these are relatively new, but were obviously made by someone blind and living in a hole)

What, you couldnt decide whether you wanted to wear boots or sandals? Not only do they look awful in suede/pleather but the ones you see in the background are metallic. Making something silver does not make it classy. The sad thing about the girl pictured here is that she owns not one but two pairs. please, just say no.

2. T-shirts that share your entire life story

this is one of the slightly less obnoxious ones. The problems I have with this are: 1. thank you for announcing to the world that you are single, your lack of class wasn't obvious enough 2. now every guy who can read knows that you are psycho and probably clingy and every girl knows that you are... morally casual. Sometimes these shirts can be clever, this, however is not an example.

3. Moon Boots

Moon Boots. Doesn't the name say enough? if you are not studying penguins in antarctica or aliens on the moon you should NOT be wearing these things. There is no excuse. they are ugly. and not ugly as in "so ugly they're actually kind of cute," no. These things are flat out nauseating and should not even be allowed to be called shoes.

4. Ed Hardy

these should speak for themselves. if you are not on the jersey shore, you should not be wearing these. You should not be wearing these if you are on jersey shore, but that's just a whole other issue. The thing with Ed Hardy is that most people who wear it tend to deck themselves out from head to toe. Guys wearing Ed Hardy - might as well walk around with a giant sign on your head that says "I am a douche." Girls - watch an episode or two of What Not to Wear.

5. Bedazzled ....anything

At the rodeo I see these walking around, sometimes there is actually a person attached. Usually the wearer also sports a bedazzled shirt, boots, or even a bedazzled jean jacket. the only thing that should have this many diamonds on it is nelly's grill.

Open up a copy of any magazine with pictures or invest in a mirror. Either one of these might keep you from committing fashion faux pas such as these. We all make mistakes, but just because someone wears something hideous does not mean you need to as well. Unless, apparently you are on Glee and think that Ga Ga is a fashion icon. Please spare mankind and our eyes and look in a mirror or any other reflective surface before venturing out into public.
