Muffin tops, head to toe animal prints, boobs that need support in a skimpy top that provides no support, top or bottom butt cleavage, heels that they cannot walk in, the wrong shade of red lipstick (very common nowadays), and lower belly cleavage (where your shirt is too short to cover the lower half of your belly and your pants sit underneath it, very common in WI), and sandals on jacked up feet. I;m sure there are more, but these are the biggest offenders.

Too much cleavage. It is impossible to look classy when your boobs are hanging out of your top. Too much cleavage screams “slut”, whatever that really means.

@Brooke Thank you! Every year at one particular game where my alma mater plays a rival, the women from the other school show up in cocktail dresses with heels. It’s fun to watch them wobbling on the over crowded sidewalks and punching through the grass around the stadium.

Also high heels at the pool. Why?

Almost everything on this list or posted doesn’t really bother me, I’m surprised by girls choose of wardrobe sometime, but it really doesn’t affect me and so who am I to judge. Someone with tight cloths may just have gained weight and nothing else to wear I don’t know and everything else including red lipstick, cartoon characters etc.. seems like their choose so I don’t really care. It would be nice if we all had a stylist or could be on What Not to Wear but it’s not going to happen. But I do have to say the thong hanging out thing drives me nuts, not the style itself because again not really bothering me. It’s when they wear their thong so it looks like they intentionally are giving themselves a wedge, I’m like WTF, I guess I don’t know why someone wants to walk around with a wedge and it makes me uncomfortable just looking at it. Overall I figure some people don’t know style, I’m sure I make mistakes sometimes but I guess I’m lucky I get it. Just watching the show What Not to Wear, will make you realize some people just don’t get in naturally.

Oh God, I could go on and on!! Just to name a few:

1. Anything mesh
2. Multiple neon colored items worn together
3. Girls who are overweight wearing super tight shirts TUCKED IN!! (like why would you want to draw MORE attention to your midsection?)
4. In addition to above - anything showing muffin top
5. White sandals or boots - don’t know why I can’t stand these, I guess there are exceptions but most of the time just looks tacky). And if you’re going to wear white pants, I do not want to see your hot pink panties with the skull and crossbones of them. THONG - hello????
6. BRAS please!! Now there are some of us who can get away with not wearing a bra, especially if the shirts very tight and/or halter and/or has built in support.. HOWEVER.. If the shirt is none of the above and you are well endowed in the bosom area, you may need a little more support. Wiggly jiggly boobage is never a good look. Neither is people seeing your dinner plate sized areolas. If you’re going to wear a bra with a backless, racerback or camisole tank - one word - STRAPLESS!
7. Girls with really huge boobs wearing shirts that are too low cut. No one wants to see your 4 inch boob crack.
8. Outfits that are too matchy matchy, i.e. green shirt, green shoes, green purse, green nails… ugh
9. Overacessorizing. Pick one statement item and go easy on everything else. Too much going on.
10. UGGs with miniskirts or shorts in the summer - Just no.

Okay that was more than a few. Sorry I start like hyperventilating when I see ish like this on the street.

For me, it’s sweatshirts with shorts or miniskirts - especially when a turtleneck is layered under the shirt. Either you’re hot or you’re cold. Pick one. I also can’t stand midriff shirts, halter tops, tank tops, etc. on women who don’t have the body for it - ditto for men who go shirtless when they’re proportions cry out for a shirt. Nobody wants to see Winnie the Pooh bellies or man boobs, boys and girls.

The waistband of a pant should not be at a person’s hipbone, back pockets should not be at the bend of a knee, and underwear is called underwear because it’s not supposed to be seen. I don’t want to see crusty boxer shorts when I’m walking down the street. It’s even more ridiculous when I see guys wearing their pants slung down way too low with a belt to hold them in the wrong place. WTF? This has to stop folks.

5. Fake nails of any kind. I don’t care how expensive they are, they always look cheap.

FYI… If you actually read about UGGs (or sheepskin), they are meant to keep your feet comfortable in weather up to 75 degrees. I dont really see a problem with wearing UGGs with shorts or sweatpants. They are comfortable and keep your feet warm. I do agree over 75 degrees and my feet would smeel pretttty awful.

I’ll second the folks who can’t stand the ultra-baggy pants. Whenever I see some 120-lb. dude wearing size 40-waist jeans, with a belt worn UNDER their butt and showing their faded boxer shorts, it makes me want to quote Denis Leary: “Pull up your PAAAAAANTS!”

I also don’t understand the appeal of Uggs. My cousin’s husband is Australian, and he was in complete shock when he saw a pair at a department store here in the US that cost $250. He said out there, they are maybe $50-60 and not worn as a fashion statement.

Another thing that bugs me is the short jean skirt over cropped leggings. I just don’t get it. Even worse is when a long t-shirt is worn over leggings; I walked behind a large girl at the mall one day, and she kept pulling the bottom of the shirt down to try and cover up her butt (with VPL!)...she did this every 2 minutes or so and it still didn’t stay down. And can someone send a memo to anyone that pops their collar that they look friggin’ ridiculous?

3: Muffin tops, there’s nothing at all worse than muffin tops. Except perhaps…

4: Morbidly obese people that feel the need to wear halter, belly shirts and cut-off jean shorts. WHY???

5: Anything ever worn by Lady Gaga.

6: When girls with large boobs wear really neep v-necks that are so tight it feels like the damn things are gonna pop.

7: Animal prints. All of them. Except perhaps that one pair of Kate Spade strappy sandals in Zebra print. Those were pretty.

8: Harem Pants… what the hell are these people thinking?

9: Bubble hem shorts… don’t really enjoy those. And they make every one look like they have child-bearing hips!

Platform flipflops don’t really bother me, and french manicures are only gross when they’re on huge dagger nails. Keep your nails shorter and it’s a nice look.

I was the girl in 8th grade who would go up to girls whose thongs were hanging out and say, “Excuse me, your ass is hanging out. Could you please put your undies away?” Ah, I miss those days where I could be a blunt bitch and blame the onset of puberty.

As long as your lady parts are covered i really don’t care. It does my nut in that people still judge you for wearing uggs when you’re wearing jeans and it’s actually cold or you’re on a long trip. I’m sat in a car for 9+ hours/500+ miles during the night, #&@$% the lot of you that judge me at truck stops. I am cold, i am uncomfortable and I’m bloody well going to wear them.
My brother was one for letting his jeans sit around his knees though, we got him out of the phase by either giving him a wedgie or de pantsing him everytime he did it. Needles to say it wasn’t a phase that lasted very long.
Lip liner that doesn’t blend or match your lipstick shade is something that annoys me though, i bumped into this chick at the grocery store that had plum coloured liner on a nude pinkish lipstick. She’d have looked really lovely had she skipped the liner, the whole time we talked i just wanted to uppercut her with a wet wipe.

And as for the Uggs on road trips, I wouldn’t get on anyone for that… just when you’re trying to wear them as a deliberate fashion statement… that’s the only time I have a problem. Hell, robes are ugly too, but there’s a time and a place for them.

I live in Arizona, and I have to agree, the bipolar wardrobe of the ASU coeds is horrendous.

You get a girl with a Giant bubble jacket, micromini skirt and Uggs that look like she dismembered a polar bear and crammed her feet into their severed appendages.

Their justification? It’s AZ and they “never get to wear [their] winter stuff anymore.” Well - it’s not like you moved here and a Native hopped out from behind a saguaro like, “Hah! Gotcha! We have no winter!!! Kiss your cute jackets and scarves goodbye” and ran cackling into the Sonoran.

@Resullins: You’d be surprised how many dirty ‘omg you’re wearing uggs, I’m judging you’ looks I’ve received while in truck stops at 3 in the morning. It’s tempting to stomp them in a face so they can have a close up. Also, those little beauty spots girls draw on with eyeliner.
The penciled on eyebrows can be done nicely, I’ve seen one or two girls pull it off but i agree. Generally they look horrendous, although i did shave mine a bit when i was little and now they’re quite bushy when left to grow unplucked, and that’s why i tend not to do the ‘omg you’re wearing that’ thing because i remember when i was younger and i wore a skirt and a pair of knock off boots that somewhat resembled uggs, i have enough trouble hiding my huge muffin top and bingo wings now that i kind of applaud some of the girls i see wearing these too tight clothes and totally in your face patters because they obviously have the confidence and ‘i don’t care’ attitude to wear it. Denim jackets do make me cringe though, I’ve never liked them. It’s not a piece of clothing that I’ve ever seen styled to look nice.

Mostly its wearing the pants too low or too tight so that the stomach hangs out over the sides and front. If you were wearing a loose enough top I suppose you would still have a muffin top but no one would see so it’s the tree falls in the forest thing. Any time the hangover is visible (tight shirts or short shirts) it’s a muffin top.

Bumbler: Ugg boots are made to be worn in the winter and summer. The real Ugg boot - and not the knock-off, copied boots - are made of sheepskin and they ARE designed to be worn year round. They keep your feet the constant temperature of your body regardless of how hot or cold the outside temperature.
If you see people wearing them in Florida, then that is what they’re meant to do. The only difficulty I would see is the possibility of a “boot” tan line - like a farmer’s tan on your legs. In Australia, they are worn on the beach in the middle of summer.
That is why they are so popular. These benefits, obviously, aren’t present in counterfeit boots which are made of different materials.
So, there isn’t any “smell.”

I really used to hate UGGs but after trying to survive a semester of college without them they became part of my shoe collection. The dorms are drafty and keep the show away in a more fashionable way then those ugly snow boots that your mom always tried to make you wear during middle school. I also used to despise sweatpants and never owned a pair until college - maybe I just broke down and bought a pair. Either way they are convenient and warm - but should NOT be worn in public unless it’s 2 a.m. and you are going to Wal-Mart for cold medicine.

To the Ugg apologists: if the standard Uggs were meant to be worn all year around in all occasions—why does their “official” range have an indoor, outdoor (look like boots/shoes), slipper, etc range? Hmm?

We could always come up with a list of the Standard Slipper Variety Ugg Dos and Don’ts:

Dos (acceptable on some level - if you must)

1. On a road trip when you are basically dressed in you PJs for the rest of your ensemble and it’s the middle of the night;

2. In a college town when, for some godforsaken reason you feel it’s a perfectly acceptable clothing choice to wear PJ’s to the mall.

3. In the middle of winter with jeans.

Don’ts:

1. All other times.

Not sure if it’s just my personal gripe - but what the hell is up with people wearing shirt skirts, sandals, and a scarf when it’s the middle of summer?

Oh, I forgot one: The designer bag (fake OR real) worn with a sloppy outfit like sweatpants or any of the awful things mentioned in all of the above comments. If I worked for Gucci or D&G I would hate seeing my label carried around by people who obviously think the name of a designer will distract from their obvious laziness and lack of an ability to dress themselves.

I agree that all of the faux-pas above are terrible, but they are nothing compared to Argentina. The $&#! you see here is incredible. Think platform sandals are bad? Try rubber sandals with socks attached. And they wear them with harem pants for added horror. But the absolute worst are the hairstyles, mostly because mullets are very fashionable here. A mullet is bad enough, but some women (and quite a few men, actually) have these terrible mullet/rat tail combinations where the “party” part of the mullet ends in a thick, long rat tail. Or several. Or even worse, ONE DREAD LOCK!! I wish I was making this up.

@Brandy: I have to give some people the benifit of the doubt on that one. Mostly because I understad that there are a lot of women that look nice 6 days out of seven, with their high heels, done-hair, and designer bag… and it’s SUCH a pain in the ass to switch out all your crap into a different bag on Sunday when you wear your sweats to the grocery store.

I know… this isn’t always the case… but sometimes, I’ll let that one go.

Ok, that sounds fair, I guess. I’ve just never worn sweats outside of the house or the gym (and I change after I work out), not even in college, but I guess some women do… I don’t know, I still think it looks goofy.

Yeah… I definitely wore a crappy t-shirt and flip-fops to the store last night… with my brand new pink Coach purse. I was feeling crappy.

I guess I’m more understading of slatternliness when I haven’t slept in three weeks and don’t care when people stare.
