OH! AND! Grown ass people, especially men, with those god damn air brushed shirts with Tweety Bird and Elmo and other such innocent children's favorites smoking a blunt or brandishing a weapon! STOP IT PEOPLE! WE'VE GOT TO DO BETTER!


LOL!
That is a problem here too.

I always had a solid color, practical backpack in high school.

Seeing the 'tough kids' with Elmo, Dora, Spongebob, Care Bears & Spider-Man bags always made me giggle.

...those 'gangsta tweety/bugs bunny' shirts are absolutely horrid.

Hmm well I didn't mean to say that cheaper sunglasses are bad.
I meant that I'm sick of hearing my friend saying my glasses are knockoffs when hers are as well.
I have no problem with cheaper sunglasses.

Hahaha i love this. Although I must disagree with the Uggs. There so comfyy and so great for those early morning winter classes. Since I have to walk basically everywhere on campus they are great at keeping my feet warm on my way to class.

i agree with the uggs! they're SO comfortable and keep my toes warm in freezing -30 degrees celsius weather.

one trend that i absolutely hate is how ppl are now trying to look "original" with their "mainstream emo" or "mainstream badass 80's/90's bleached skinny jeans and balmain-esque heels (aka. really hideous, strappy, black leather metallic studded heels).

ARGH THE RAYBANS! IT IS EVERYWHERE! NO PPL, IT DOES NOT LOOK COOL ANYMORE!

What else..... Ooh! I hate the bleached blond hair, orange tan look too. Actually no. I am fine with that, I just do not like the ANNOYING valley girl accent that usually accompanies such girls... You can hear them from miles away before you even see them!!!

I am also tired of seeing the checkered scarves worn Balenciaga style... (With the triangular point hanging down the front of your body) I literally see it 10 times a day on campus. ON DIFFERENT GIRLS. AND GUYS.

I also can't stand tights worn with sweater dresses that stop at mid-thigh or above. Again, you look fat and skanky to boot.

Paris Hilton wannabe's get on my nerves as do dramatic weaves and beach blonde hair.

Porn star makeup is gross as well.



I did this in high school because I kept my pads/tampons in my purse so I wouldn't have to bring my backpack with me to the bathroom in the middle of class.

Even now I carry a laptop briefcase plus purse.

:p... I wear thigh-high socks with sweater dresses. I personally think they look sexy, I wear sweater dresses that don't show any cleavage and the thigh-highs just give the outfit more sex appeal when strangely, you're covering up more instead of just showing a bare leg. Where I work we decorated our mannequins like that and when I tried on that outfit I loved it. It's different here, I live in a conservative state and I just think it makes me look different in a good way. it's definitely not a trend where I come from. just my two cents...i didn't mean to write a novel lol. For some reason I did not take offense to that comment, however

I also love skinny jeans, but anyway, back to trends I wish would go away:

bright, neon colored denim jeans: I tried to like these, but i just couldn't for some reason.

tunics over skinny jeans: I love tunics and I love skinny jeans, but for some reason I just don't like them together. Since I'm short, I wear one thing with another - a tunic alone or skinny jeans with a funky top, tucked in.

meh, just my opinion :p

The "My look is more individual than your individual look even though our wardrobes could pass as twins" and the "i came up with it first" trend.

I'm with any crowd who wish the highschool girl-trend of orange tan and bleached blond hair would go away. Especially the kind sporting really bad regrowth. woo! ...and with matching stereotypical voices to boot.
Only because they block public transport exists with their saggy, overworn Country Road bags. That whole image is a trend I'd love to get rid of.

The head-to-toe abercrombie style doesn't appeal to me. Some of their pieces are cute, but definitely not the sweatshirts and t-shirts with different variations of "A&F" splashed across them..

Peasant blouses and empire-waisted dresses. There is a time and a place for looking pregnant, thank you very much.

I hate Uggs.

I understand that there is a need for them especially in cold, bitter weather. But I live in Vancouver. Our weather is rather temperate and we rarely go below -5 degrees Celsius. And it rains like a mofo here. Uggs + Vancouver do not mix, people! The toes of your light tan Uggs stained to a lovely dark poo brown colour by dirty rain water is not a good look!

If you're going to give me the weather excuse for Uggs in Vancouver, wear RAIN BOOTS PLS.

I most def agree with this. I'm slim but I have lotsa boobs so I def don't like ppl with my body shape wearing empire-waisted stuff. The boobs hold the fabric to make you look pregnant. I guess for more flat-chested women this look can work, but not for the rest :/

i'm gonna have to go with dudes wearing t-shirts longer than my credit report.

If your "white tee" is grazing the sidewalk lookin like a damn night-gown, you need your ass kicked. Wear some shit that fits.
