Which fashion fads to ignore

In the fifties was saddle shoes. In the sixties, tye dye. The seventies suffered from bellbottoms, the eighties big hair, and the nineties, acid wash jeans. Every era has some vomit-inducing fashion that should NEVER be worn. It seems that the two thousand generation has somehow developed several. Every day I walk outside and throw up a little. I work in the busiest mall in my city, and have seen every kind of human imaginable. On a daily basis, I will see anywhere from 50 to 200 of those "Emo" kids. I HAVE to question exactly why they think they look good, or even different. All have the wierd lopsided poofy hair in 3 shades of color, all have the uncomfortably tight jeans, all have some wierd kind of shirt that either advertises a horrible band, or looks like it was made from their grandma's curtains. IGNORE ANY TREND THAT IS LABELED AS NON-CONFORMIST! It's like theyt put somthing from each of the last six generations in the blender, hopped in, and set it to puree! Another wierd trend I have seen lately, is the bland, one color look. Stores like Hollister, and Abercrombie and Fitch, and American Eagle put out these lines of clothing in colors that you only find in the middle of the sahara. I DO NOT CARE if it is supposed to be a "Sand" tone top, and a "Dust" colored skirt! It's frikkin brown! AVOID THINGS THAT MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE YOU ARE CONDUCTING SOME SORT OF SAFARI! And the worst, by far, has GOT to be the "I'm off work, but sure gimme 20 bucks and follow me to bathroom". We are not hookers ladies. The neon minis and barbie style hot pink pumps have got to go. Also, there is a point where highlights stop being highlights, and they end up becoming a tacky bleach job! And don't cake the makeup on until you have to scrape it off with your nails! Jesus! You lo9ok like rodeo clowns. If you are not putting out for money, you don't need to look like it. DO NOT START DRESSING LIKE A CHEAP WHORE!


So these are the main things to ignore in this generation of fashion. Just make sure that you're comfortable and confident in what you are wearing. STOP TRYING TO BE PRETTY AND START BEING YOU!
