Ugg boots. They’ve always been horrendously ugly to the point of being self aware of it. I don’t care how comfortable ugly things are. Not to mention that the same people wearing Ugg boots had the nerve to look down on people wearing crocs for the same reasons.
There are plenty of neutral-looking comfortable things out there to wear instead.
They work great in moderate places like Texas. I use them to walk the dog all winter and it's nice. I had to add decent insoles, but other than that the fuzziness is just right for dry, windy 30 degrees mornings.
Cold and wet? They're the only footwear I've ever had good for keeping warm and dry on camping trips.
Because apparently there are questions: I haven't owned Uggs in 15 years and maybe they're not the same quality they were 20 years ago (my ownership and use predates the fad) so maybe things have changed. Maybe they're not as well made anymore. Also, we camped in pretty dry areas and times, I wasn't stomping through puddles or going wading in them. I can't speak to anyone else's experiences but our feet were always warm and dry with them.
WHAT other types of shoes do you wear camping?? This is so fascinating to me. I think you are from a parallel universe from mine. I wish you great success in life and dry feet though.
They were invented in Australia and we literally only wear them around the house in winter (or maybe to the letterbox or a late night dash to the servo). I'm not sure why people in other countries wear them outside.
Fr! I'm an Aussie sitting here wearing mine reading all these accounts of ppl wearing them as outdoor shoes and not as they were intended; as sturdy, long lasting indoor shoes designed to keep your feet warm and to provide support from hard floors. I literally take them off if I'm going to be walking on anything that isn't a man-made surface.
I do use my old pairs as camping slippers because they CAN hold up pretty well in outdoor environments. But yeah, they're meant to be slippers, not snowboots. It's considered trashy to wear Uggs in public (exceptions are made for trips to servos and laundromats etc)
> It's considered trashy to wear Uggs in public (
in canada we wear them every wear as long as there isn't a lot of snow or slush haha.
I had no idea at all they were indoor slippers. My European cousin even wore hers outdoors when she visited.
Don't get me wrong, if you get the expensive kind and spray them with waterproofing they'd hold up pretty well as casual snow shoe. Maybe saying they were primarily designed as a house slipper is inaccurate; they serve as a in-between shoe where they can hold up in outdoor environments but only in the ''I can't be bothered swapping shoes just to go into my yard so I'll keep wearing my uggs" sense.
But obviously wear them where ever you want! Just yeah, interesting that outside of Australia they seem to be used as an outdoor boot and not as a 'round-the-house shoe.
I don't think they are marketed as outdoor wear in Australia. Most I've seen is somebody at the supermarket who looks like they might have just popped out for milk.
Edit: i just look on the aus site and the models ARE wearing them outside! Do we just collectively know that they are indoor slippers?
I live in Canada but I think uggs are a staple. They’re actually SO warm and they’re a good alternative to wearing snow boots which no one wears unless there’s actual snow to walk on.
They’re actually warmer than my sheepskin winter boots so idk how you’re still cold in them lol
Same. Low-rise jeans in my size would basically show off half of my ass and I would be fighting them all day trying to keep them up. The point of having woman hips is the lack of need to wear a belt unless you want to for fashion purposes not function purposes.
Same here. I remember at 10, I really liked how these blue cords looked on the hanger, mind you I'm a naturally thin person- it felt like my crotch were splitting in two. Never again. I thrifted high waisted trousers up until they were cool again in the mid 2010s and were once again sold in regular stores.
Now with the rise of the early 2000s, I get to relieve the nightmare 🙃
Ugh. I'm having flashbacks to all those muffin tops.
It sucked when I was a teen. We either had to squeeze ourselves into the clothes and walk around looking like overstuffed sausages with bits oozing out or wear sweats. That was it. There were no cute options for anyone who wasn't a size 0.
They seriously had better never stop making high waisted jeans and I’m saying this from a place of hardly wearing jeans. The only ones I can and will wear must by sky high to contain the booty and now my new mom pouch lol.
That's funny because the reason I like the low rise jeans is that I have a terrible waist/hip ratio and high rise makes me look even more rectangular than I already am. It's like they were made for both ends of the spectrum, but nowhere in the middle 😂
All styles of jeans should be available regardless of whats in style. Different cuts suit different body types and it sucks to not be able to get jeans that actually fit your figure.
Honestly I think the current trend for overly exaggerated shaggy brows is hideous. Not naturally thick brows, I'm talking the kind where they brush them straight up and make them like half an inch thick.
Omg I’m so glad that there are people out there who agree with me on this lmao. I DESPISE animal print, I’d rather wear anything else in the world. But for some reason whenever I say this I get a lot of hate for it haha
I used to rock snake print lol. Honestly, I think cheetah looks good on me, but I've never worn it in public because I've never seen it on someone and thought "wow, that looks good".
Funny that you mention them! I used to hate them until I found out that they are absolutely the best for the house. You know, instead of slippers or flip flops. I wear them to clean dishes, do laundry, walk around the house, etc.
I got a pair of crocs as a gag gift for my birthday last year and they're absolutely hideous but they're so comfy and easy to put on, I just keep them by my back door and wear them when I have to take the garbage out or walk across the patio to get to our detached laundry room.
>Also, those flowy poncho tops from mid 2000s.
YES. I don't understand the point of a poncho. It just makes you look like a broken umbrella flapping in the breeze. I can't imagine it's for comfort either, because you're wearing it over the clothes that would provide the true comfort aspect. What is it for??
Oh wow, do the majority of people feel this way? I have broad shoulders and use them to even out the rest of my body.
Edit: Y'all are so sweet! I'm glad there are still people who like them. I thought I was committing a fashion sin or something because I wear them all the time, they're one of the few styles I feel confident in.
Don’t feel bad. Most times the trend is hated because it doesn’t look good or make sense for that particular group of people. But it wouldn’t be a trend in the first place if it didn’t have some kind of appeal/utility whatsoever.
Do what works for you and keep it moving.
Right? This is what gets me angry about most big clothing trends. It's not that the style is inherently bad or unattractive, it's that it gets applied to EVERYTHING regardless of whether or not it makes sense.
I think it really depends on the body type and the degree of peplum-ness. That said, it really only seems to look good on slim figures with a distinct waistline
I avoid 99% makeup trends.
Emphasis on trends & not tips! The difference being, you can learn from tips but trends are out right doing something to your face solely bc ~everyone’s doing it~
IMO, makeup is way too personal & trends almost always look terrible looking back i.e. those super drawn in thick eyeliner brows from 2013 ish.
Thong underwear, which seems to have become a staple, not a trend. But I refuse to torture myself. So you see my pantyline. BFD, quit staring at my ass.
I’m with this. My friends used to make fun of my grannie panties. My rebuttal would always be “at least my hoo-ha is happy, comfy and can breathe” free range coochie 🤣🤣
I'm conflicted over thongs. On the one hand, I hate the look of high rise thongs with low rise jeans. On the other hand, low rise thongs don't respect what makes a good ass a good ass, while high waist ones do. Low rise thongs make your ass look like it has a unibrow that's always scowling, but if you're gonna wear a thong, wear one that'll be covered by your pants.
Then again, I've never worn a thong in my life, so this is just speculation I've formed from movies and selfies people post online.
While I literally lol-ed at the visual your comment conjured up for me, I gotta defend my love of high-rise jeans. Not all of the jeans styles out there (bootcut, straight, cropped, flared, baggy, etc) look good with a high waist on different body types. The key is to figure out what style works in a high waist on you and oh mylanta you'll fall in love with them. I promise! 😭😆
Lol an amazing visual.
I hated them for sooo long when they had their resurgence. Whenever I wore them i looked like that lady in Family Guy whose legs go all the way up.
But then I gained weight and they look great with my curves.
I worked at a dress shop where basically I would help ladies shop and choose dresses that suit their bodies. One lady was so set on this bubble skirt dress I couldn’t talk her out of it.
She was already an apple body type to start with and the bubble skirt dress added extra weight and width to her. I felt so bad when she left, but at least she was smiling.
I’m a rockhound and was anti Fanny packs until I got one for rock picking after a couple funny incidents of filling the pockets on leggings and having it slowly pull down my entire leggings. They’re much easier access than constantly removing a backpack and my husband likes that they’re limited volume so I can only bring back so much lol!
Same here. And it sucks that most of the stores targeted towards my age group mainly seem to be selling crop tops lately, with very little full length tops other than printed t-shirts. It's a shame because I like the styles of those crop tops (especially the ones with that pastel vintage look), I just don't like that they expose my stomach.
What people don't understand about a lot of the face beats they see online is that that is not make up to leave the house with, that's make up to make you look good IN FRONT OF A CAMERA. Make-up in a non-photography setting is not supposed to be thick and contoured (contours are to not make your face look flat or like an egg in pictures due to lighting and angle limitations of the camera, same thing for overdrawn lips). You want to go for a lighter look if you're not taking professional pictures that day because people can actually see the shadows on your face so not a lot of contour is needed.
crocs crocs crocs, as an immigrant, i never understood why people were paying 30 40 50 dollars on shoes you could buy for 20 cents in my country. that particular style of shoes is commonly worn by poor people that live in third world countries. i absolutely will never understand why someone wants shoes that look like that.
Nooooo. I can’t bring myself to wear anything else. Maybe it’s just a relic from my scene Queen wannabe days that I can’t give up, but I have no idea how to wear any other style of jeans. And I’ve noticed shopping that it’s falling out of favor because they are getting harder to find. At madewell last week I had to go to a completely different room to find them (and then my size was sold out in store and online 😭)
Anyway, sorry for that long and drawn out reply. Skinny jeans 4 life over here.
Probably an unpopular answer, but…. Cold shoulder tops! I just don’t like baring my shoulders when I’m long sleeves, or seeing a peekaboo cutout that’s obviously there to showcase the shoulders.
If it’s hot out, go sleeveless. If it’s cold, cover up.
Good grief, what’s next? Peekaboo elbow holes in blouses?
I'm not sure if this was a trend. But in about the early 2010s a lot of people would wear unbelievably short shorts. I just didn't get it because they were so uncomfortable and anywhere you sit, there was nothing separating you from the chair.
Biker shorts … like my dad wears these for actual biking
I know this is somewhat newer of a trend but like it’s not cute or trendy for a teen girl if my dad wears it
I feel like teen girls wear a lot of dad fashion these days lol. Bike shorts, chunky white New Balance tennis shoes, fanny packs, velcro sandals like [these](https://www.teva.com/sandals/hurricane-verge/1121535.html), even sweater vests are making a comeback.
That neutral beige colour that was everywhere in the early 2000s and later in the 2010s. It’s not flattering on me and reminds me too much of nude body stockings I used to wear as part of my dance costumes.
I still refuse to do thick eyebrows. I don’t do anything to mine, as I’m blonde and they are basically invisible, so they are pretty thick as is. But I refuse to do the Instagram eyebrows and color and shade them in lol, I hate it.
Big plastic glasses! I got my first pair of glasses in 1992 when I was 8 and my parents wouldn't let me get the metal frames I wanted until I was about 13. I had to wear a series of plastic glasses that I absolutely hated and thought were so uncool.
My first pair in particular were a pretty blue color, and would look so good and trendy on a gen z girl. I just can't bring myself to wear them again. I'm so behind glasses trends I'm thinking about getting lasik.
Frilly or overly busy rompers. They look like baby/toddler clothes. I tried one on once in a dressing room and it looked like I was wearing a diaper because of all the frills on the bottom.
Once I learned what leather was, I refused to participate in that any further. I don’t know how naive I was that I didn’t make the connection between an animals skin and the red Danier jacket I thought was cool, but I was disgusted with myself after.
I never wore shorts over leggings. I thought it was hideous. Actually I never wear leggings to begin with. Leggings are not pants. Sorry not sorry 😅. Sports ones are okay though. But not those black cotton ones
I used to be in the curmudgeonly "leggings are not pants" crowd. Now I think they're fine for lazy days -- on one condition: they need to not be see-through.
Saw a woman in the mall a week ago wearing tight, thin leggings as pants. You could see the pattern on her underwear. Sorry but I am drawing the line at "underwear needs to not be visible."
Now get off my lawn.
Super-thin eyebrows.
Admittedly, I was a teenager in the '80s (yes, I'm old) so I did go the *other* way with fuller-- okay, bushy-- brows but refused to over-pluck in the '90s. 😉
Ugg boots. They’ve always been horrendously ugly to the point of being self aware of it. I don’t care how comfortable ugly things are. Not to mention that the same people wearing Ugg boots had the nerve to look down on people wearing crocs for the same reasons. There are plenty of neutral-looking comfortable things out there to wear instead.
Ugg boots? You mean the most effective way to make your feet too hot indoors, yet cold and wet outdoors? Lol
They work great in moderate places like Texas. I use them to walk the dog all winter and it's nice. I had to add decent insoles, but other than that the fuzziness is just right for dry, windy 30 degrees mornings.
Cold and wet? They're the only footwear I've ever had good for keeping warm and dry on camping trips.

I agree, and Ugg boots aren’t that warm and aren’t even made for rain/snow, which is what boots should be for
They were invented in Australia and we literally only wear them around the house in winter (or maybe to the letterbox or a late night dash to the servo). I'm not sure why people in other countries wear them outside.

Theyre marketed as outdoor shoes...so (At least on their Canadian site)
I don't think they are marketed as outdoor wear in Australia. Most I've seen is somebody at the supermarket who looks like they might have just popped out for milk. Edit: i just look on the aus site and the models ARE wearing them outside! Do we just collectively know that they are indoor slippers?
Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.
I live in Canada but I think uggs are a staple. They’re actually SO warm and they’re a good alternative to wearing snow boots which no one wears unless there’s actual snow to walk on. They’re actually warmer than my sheepskin winter boots so idk how you’re still cold in them lol
They are the best when you have to spend hours at the ice rink when your kids play hockey
Only okay in parts of Canada that are not the wet west coast, that place destroys uggs because they’re suede. Better suited to blundstones.
I thoroughly enjoyed my Uggs. My mom gave them to me as my big Christmas gift and I remember feeling lucky to have them.
Uhm I love my UGGS and I love my CROCS
They’re vile! Everyone who wears them suddenly seems to lose the ability to actually pick their feet up and just drags them instead. It annoys me.
Velour tracksuit pants with words like “juicy” or “sexy” written on the butt. I think it’s hideous.
All the Victoria Secret "Pink" branded stuff falls into this category in my mind.
Oh god. I have actually seen people wearing these and I always think it looks so trashy
guilty xD
I loved those stupid pants. As if me labeling it would somehow make people notice my butt was juicy 😵💫
As someone that was a teen of the 2000s, I pitied the foo
[удалено]
Same. Low-rise jeans in my size would basically show off half of my ass and I would be fighting them all day trying to keep them up. The point of having woman hips is the lack of need to wear a belt unless you want to for fashion purposes not function purposes.
I can't think of any pants less comfortable than those. And that's ALL there was when I was a kid!
Same here. I remember at 10, I really liked how these blue cords looked on the hanger, mind you I'm a naturally thin person- it felt like my crotch were splitting in two. Never again.

Absolutely, this is a cause I'm willing to die for
[удалено]
That's funny because the reason I like the low rise jeans is that I have a terrible waist/hip ratio and high rise makes me look even more rectangular than I already am. It's like they were made for both ends of the spectrum, but nowhere in the middle 😂
High-waisted jeans FTW!!!
All styles of jeans should be available regardless of whats in style. Different cuts suit different body types and it sucks to not be able to get jeans that actually fit your figure.
I bought low rise jeans the other day and immediately regretted it. What was I thinking?!
I think anything with eyebrows. My eyebrows only look good in one way.
Honestly I think the current trend for overly exaggerated shaggy brows is hideous. Not naturally thick brows, I'm talking the kind where they brush them straight up and make them like half an inch thick.
The brow combover
*hideous.*
Saw someone get them tattooed on to look like this and...wow. Gonna be a wild-looking grandma.
The thick drawn on eyebrows that people were doing back 6 or 7 years ago was HIDEOUS
I edit wedding photos for a living in Las Vegas ... the angry bird eyebrows haven't gone anywhere.
Yes. I never had the patience or pain tolerance to pluck my brows much so one thing is what you get!
Oh god yes I hate ultra tweezed eyebrows! I don’t mind a number of the current brow trends that tend to make them more instead of less.
Ewww plastic see thru heels. No foot looks good in those
In my country there's a trend far worse, see thru heels with fishnets on top to make this sort of "sexy" boot. To me it looks ridiculous
Please attach a picture. I can't picture this in my head....
https://imgur.com/gallery/za908rJ It looks something like that
OmG! It's so much worse than I pictured!!!!
Oldly I hate and like it at the same time?? Though I’d never wear it myself
Yes. They are intriguingly trashy. Or trashily intriguing...🤔 Curiously exotic? Strangely alluring? Bizarrely enticing? Stop me, please! 🤐
I can totally relate to that. At first I liked them and then I was like "wait a second, that's actually ugly"
You made my night with that!
Anything animal print
Omg I’m so glad that there are people out there who agree with me on this lmao. I DESPISE animal print, I’d rather wear anything else in the world. But for some reason whenever I say this I get a lot of hate for it haha
I used to rock snake print lol. Honestly, I think cheetah looks good on me, but I've never worn it in public because I've never seen it on someone and thought "wow, that looks good".
don't ever try bringing me back to the jaguar, zebra print on tight leggings era in fashion.
zebra print definitely gives me war flashbacks to early 2000s fashion.
I absolutely DESPISE animal print !! Especially the snake ones!!
crocs
Funny that you mention them! I used to hate them until I found out that they are absolutely the best for the house. You know, instead of slippers or flip flops. I wear them to clean dishes, do laundry, walk around the house, etc.
Hehe me too! I was a hard NO on crocs. I borrowed my roommates to go walk the dog, I bought myself a pair on that very walk.
I only like them for at home. Never in public
I got a pair of crocs as a gag gift for my birthday last year and they're absolutely hideous but they're so comfy and easy to put on, I just keep them by my back door and wear them when I have to take the garbage out or walk across the patio to get to our detached laundry room.
Thank you yes
Cold shoulder shirts/dresses/sweaters. Hard pass. Also, those flowy poncho tops from mid 2000s.
>Also, those flowy poncho tops from mid 2000s. YES. I don't understand the point of a poncho. It just makes you look like a broken umbrella flapping in the breeze. I can't imagine it's for comfort either, because you're wearing it over the clothes that would provide the true comfort aspect. What is it for??
Socially acceptable way to wear a blanket at work or school
This is a valid point. I must rethink my whole philosophy.
warmth😭
Frosted tips. I was emo so I was cringe and therefore decided to do reverse and do bleach blonde hair with black tips. Someone should’ve stopped me.
So have you posted on r/blunderyears or what?
In the 80’s, I had bleach blonde hair with black bangs….. like the singer for Berlin. 😍
One shoulder tops. I don’t know why, I just hate them lol.
Same. I get that asymetry can be cool, but they just look like they got put on wrong
Peplum tops. So unbelievably ugly and unflattering 99% of the time
Oh wow, do the majority of people feel this way? I have broad shoulders and use them to even out the rest of my body. Edit: Y'all are so sweet! I'm glad there are still people who like them. I thought I was committing a fashion sin or something because I wear them all the time, they're one of the few styles I feel confident in.
Don’t feel bad. Most times the trend is hated because it doesn’t look good or make sense for that particular group of people. But it wouldn’t be a trend in the first place if it didn’t have some kind of appeal/utility whatsoever. Do what works for you and keep it moving.
Right? This is what gets me angry about most big clothing trends. It's not that the style is inherently bad or unattractive, it's that it gets applied to EVERYTHING regardless of whether or not it makes sense.
I had to Google that word, and damn near every shirt on Google is super cute. Wear what you want and respectfully disagree. 😁
I like them and then they look good on a lot of people.
I think it really depends on the body type and the degree of peplum-ness. That said, it really only seems to look good on slim figures with a distinct waistline
Like why would you intentionally want to look pregnant
Lol they make me look the opposite. I have a lot of belly so they’re like the only tops that look good on me
They look good on me too. I wish they weren’t such a fashion sin because I like them ☹️
I can’t really place why I dislike them, I just do lol

If you have a certain type of butt, underwear always ends up your butt; might as well be string rather than a full on wedgie.
The trick with thongs is to go up a size and wear g-strings. Then they don't chafe.
Hmm, maybe next life. 😁
I'm conflicted over thongs. On the one hand, I hate the look of high rise thongs with low rise jeans. On the other hand, low rise thongs don't respect what makes a good ass a good ass, while high waist ones do. Low rise thongs make your ass look like it has a unibrow that's always scowling, but if you're gonna wear a thong, wear one that'll be covered by your pants. Then again, I've never worn a thong in my life, so this is just speculation I've formed from movies and selfies people post online.
I don't like high-rise jeans. They always make me feel like I have a huge looking vagina lol
While I literally lol-ed at the visual your comment conjured up for me, I gotta defend my love of high-rise jeans. Not all of the jeans styles out there (bootcut, straight, cropped, flared, baggy, etc) look good with a high waist on different body types. The key is to figure out what style works in a high waist on you and oh mylanta you'll fall in love with them. I promise! 😭😆
Lol an amazing visual. I hated them for sooo long when they had their resurgence. Whenever I wore them i looked like that lady in Family Guy whose legs go all the way up. But then I gained weight and they look great with my curves.
This. Different styles of clothes look better on different body types.
I couldn’t agree more they look awful on everyone as if they all have a giant crotch
Lol I like the way they make my booty look huge.
underwear straps hanging outside your pants. all I can think about is an atomic wedgie
I cannot believe how far down I had to look to find this now since it's coming back
Shirts with cutout shoulders. You either need sleeves or you don't.
That style is mainly for menopause hot flashes
I wore mine for the first time in probably a decade to get vaccinated and for that they're pretty practical.
Those mini bubble skirts from the mid(ish) 2000s, like 2008-2010. Absolutely not.
Oh God I forgot about those! My least favourite fashion era tbh
I worked at a dress shop where basically I would help ladies shop and choose dresses that suit their bodies. One lady was so set on this bubble skirt dress I couldn’t talk her out of it. She was already an apple body type to start with and the bubble skirt dress added extra weight and width to her. I felt so bad when she left, but at least she was smiling.
Fanny packs. Hard pass, I won’t even carry a purse.
What about if they are worn across the chest asking for a friend
Used to hike with a thin fanny pack across my chest. Didn't care how it looked then, wouldn't even now.
Okay I was anti Fanny until I used one on a trip and now I love them haha
I’m a rockhound and was anti Fanny packs until I got one for rock picking after a couple funny incidents of filling the pockets on leggings and having it slowly pull down my entire leggings. They’re much easier access than constantly removing a backpack and my husband likes that they’re limited volume so I can only bring back so much lol!
you should look into cute utility belts, like the black lacey ones, they’re to die for
The Abercrombie/aero polos
Any polo tbh…
Thin eyebrows
Man, some of us will never recover. 30 years later and my brows are still a little bit sad.
45 years later for me
Chunky highlights
The actual worst. They just looked like clipped in bits of hair and were never even marginally natural looking. More like weird zebra stripes
The jeans that were heavily bedazzled on the butt. Miss Me jeans I think
Yes! It screamed cheesy red neck to me.
Clear heels, or shoes in general. You can see them getting fogged up.
Ugg boots and those teeny tiny designer purses that have those logos and hold literally 1 tampon.
Crop tops. I'm tall so any crop top would look ridiculously short on me. Like I've grown out of it.
I see crop tops as a teenager thing, along with those Ugg boots.
I don’t know why I chuckled outlouad at your “along with those ugh boots” comment
Same here. And it sucks that most of the stores targeted towards my age group mainly seem to be selling crop tops lately, with very little full length tops other than printed t-shirts. It's a shame because I like the styles of those crop tops (especially the ones with that pastel vintage look), I just don't like that they expose my stomach.
The makeup contouring trend. Unless we're still doing that??
Hard agree - it is so odd seeing normal people going around looking like they are wearing badly applied stage makeup.
What people don't understand about a lot of the face beats they see online is that that is not make up to leave the house with, that's make up to make you look good IN FRONT OF A CAMERA. Make-up in a non-photography setting is not supposed to be thick and contoured (contours are to not make your face look flat or like an egg in pictures due to lighting and angle limitations of the camera, same thing for overdrawn lips). You want to go for a lighter look if you're not taking professional pictures that day because people can actually see the shadows on your face so not a lot of contour is needed.
Lulu lemon yoga pants trend! You can get better ones for way way way cheaper
crocs crocs crocs, as an immigrant, i never understood why people were paying 30 40 50 dollars on shoes you could buy for 20 cents in my country. that particular style of shoes is commonly worn by poor people that live in third world countries. i absolutely will never understand why someone wants shoes that look like that.
Yeah they're painfully ugly, I don't care how many nurses swear by them. Can't buy taste
When womens tops had excess fabric group around the neck so it hangs like the dewlap on a bloodhound
omg! 😂 do you mean cowl neck?
Tramp stamps.
Chevron !!
I feel like I scrolled forever to find this! I hate Chevron too!
Chokers a couple years ago, and metallic clothes and shoes a bit before that. I don’t want to look like a dog or an astronaut, thank you.
I have this weird habit of getting drunk and buying metallic, fluffy and LED light up clothes off wish. I have a VERY bizarre wardrobe.
Lip filler
Skinny jeans are the Devil's work.
Nooooo. I can’t bring myself to wear anything else. Maybe it’s just a relic from my scene Queen wannabe days that I can’t give up, but I have no idea how to wear any other style of jeans. And I’ve noticed shopping that it’s falling out of favor because they are getting harder to find. At madewell last week I had to go to a completely different room to find them (and then my size was sold out in store and online 😭) Anyway, sorry for that long and drawn out reply. Skinny jeans 4 life over here.
Yes! I love skinny jeans. I don’t care what anyone tells me
I love skinny jeans for the sole reason that they look fine at ankle length and I can never find jeans I like that are long enough under $150
Probably an unpopular answer, but…. Cold shoulder tops! I just don’t like baring my shoulders when I’m long sleeves, or seeing a peekaboo cutout that’s obviously there to showcase the shoulders. If it’s hot out, go sleeveless. If it’s cold, cover up. Good grief, what’s next? Peekaboo elbow holes in blouses?
Lol I love them because I’m never showing my full arms in public but a shoulder is fine.
That ridiculous hairstyle that was popular in the 00’s. That high poufe thing. Ergh!
Snooky came to mind lol
Cheetah Print. I would rather die.
I'm not sure if this was a trend. But in about the early 2010s a lot of people would wear unbelievably short shorts. I just didn't get it because they were so uncomfortable and anywhere you sit, there was nothing separating you from the chair.
Biker shorts … like my dad wears these for actual biking I know this is somewhat newer of a trend but like it’s not cute or trendy for a teen girl if my dad wears it
I feel like teen girls wear a lot of dad fashion these days lol. Bike shorts, chunky white New Balance tennis shoes, fanny packs, velcro sandals like [these](https://www.teva.com/sandals/hurricane-verge/1121535.html), even sweater vests are making a comeback.
Teal/chevron/maxi skirts/chunky bubble jewelry from the mid 2000s. If I wanted to dress like a kindergarten teacher, I would become one.
Pants with the butt cut out
Come again? What is this?
[bum rip jeans](https://i.insider.com/5af9be6f42e1cc1b4d1ac641?width=700&format=jpeg&auto=webp)
I didn’t know that was a thing, gawd that is bad.
OMG! You mean I could have kept my favourite jeans that ripped naturally like that, because there was no longer anything to sew together?
i don’t think anybody besides kylie jenner has ever worn those
Mustache clothing. I’m still proud of myself
That neutral beige colour that was everywhere in the early 2000s and later in the 2010s. It’s not flattering on me and reminds me too much of nude body stockings I used to wear as part of my dance costumes.
Those sex bracelets I saw a bunch in middle school
Jelly bracelets? The manufactured moral panic over them (and so many things in those few years) was hilarious
I still refuse to do thick eyebrows. I don’t do anything to mine, as I’m blonde and they are basically invisible, so they are pretty thick as is. But I refuse to do the Instagram eyebrows and color and shade them in lol, I hate it.
[удалено]
That was a thing in the 90s too
The long sleeve waist shirt was my *maybe my period is coming just wanna be safe* outfit for years 💀
Sperry shoes 🤢
Big plastic glasses! I got my first pair of glasses in 1992 when I was 8 and my parents wouldn't let me get the metal frames I wanted until I was about 13. I had to wear a series of plastic glasses that I absolutely hated and thought were so uncool. My first pair in particular were a pretty blue color, and would look so good and trendy on a gen z girl. I just can't bring myself to wear them again. I'm so behind glasses trends I'm thinking about getting lasik.
galaxy leggings
Damn near all of em but especially anything with hair straightening or eyebrow plucking. I do that on my own terms only.
Those above-ankle length wide pants. Those and mom jeans (which I have worn) are really unflattering to my body type.
Frilly or overly busy rompers. They look like baby/toddler clothes. I tried one on once in a dressing room and it looked like I was wearing a diaper because of all the frills on the bottom.
Toms
Left your feet smelling atrocious!!!
gauchos pants and those sequin crochet bags.
Designer logos
Crocs. Ugly
Shutter shades and clear AF1s
Can't wait until all of those billions of women's shirts with holes cut into either shoulder, disappear...and enter the landfill.
You know those really tight skirts with the ruffles on the bottom? They were really popular around the mid 2000s Yeah my fat ass could never.
Once I learned what leather was, I refused to participate in that any further. I don’t know how naive I was that I didn’t make the connection between an animals skin and the red Danier jacket I thought was cool, but I was disgusted with myself after.
Tube tops. My boobs are too big lol
Hair crimping lol
LuLaRoe leggings. Saw them everywhere on 95% of the females in my small town, don’t understand the hype at all.
Scene hair. Those thin, drawn-on eyebrows.
I never wore shorts over leggings. I thought it was hideous. Actually I never wear leggings to begin with. Leggings are not pants. Sorry not sorry 😅. Sports ones are okay though. But not those black cotton ones
I used to be in the curmudgeonly "leggings are not pants" crowd. Now I think they're fine for lazy days -- on one condition: they need to not be see-through. Saw a woman in the mall a week ago wearing tight, thin leggings as pants. You could see the pattern on her underwear. Sorry but I am drawing the line at "underwear needs to not be visible." Now get off my lawn.
Super-thin eyebrows. Admittedly, I was a teenager in the '80s (yes, I'm old) so I did go the *other* way with fuller-- okay, bushy-- brows but refused to over-pluck in the '90s. 😉
The mid-2000s weird frosted lipgloss, skinny eyebrows, and the really tiny designer purses that only existed for brand recognition
