I wouldn’t say that I’m a fashionista. I rarely find anything to ohh & ahh over at fashion shows. I spend more time looking at pet supplements than magazines. If I had to define my style it would be “non ugly”. Having said that, here are a few fashion trends that I don’t understand.
- Bug eye glasses. I’m sure that whoever first manufactured these glasses did it purely as a joke. It reminds me of that episode of “I Love Lucy” where Ricky & Fred tell Lucy & Ethel that the latest fashions are dresses made out of potato sacks. Eventually, even the models start wearing them.
- Skinny jeans. Maybe I detest these just because no matter the size I can’t fit into them. I just always thought that jeans were supposed to be comfortable & look good.
- Glasses from the 60′s. There’s been a recent trend for people to wear glasses that remind me of my grandmother, even men are wearing them.
- Belts. This may be one of those styles that I’m jealous of because I don’t know exactly how to wear them. I mean, I know how to put them through a belt loop. I don’t know how to match them to shoes & a purse. I don’t know what kind of shirt to wear them with or where on my waist it should fall. It takes a totally utilitarian look & makes it confusing.
- Pea green.
- Bermuda shorts.
- Gladiator sandals. I think these were the precursors to actual shoes for a reason. They make it look like people have fat feet. I don’t know what the shoe equivalent of muffin top is. They can’t be comfortable.
- Maternity tops for women who aren’t pregnant. I’m all for 70′s fashion & loose styles but whenever I see a shirt that ties in the back I think maternity wear.
- Pea green Bermuda shorts paired with bug eye glasses & gladiator sandals.
