    I've seen those "capris" for men and for the life of me don't know who thought that'd go over well.
     
    Girls and their low-cut hip-huggers.  Not only do you see crack, you want to pull them up higher to cover too much of what is showing in front.  If they want to show so much of their nether-regions, why don't they just go out in bikini bottoms?

    Not an issue. He won't wear any pants but Carhartt anyway. And ONLY the brown duck.

    The worse thing I ever saw (outside of Jerry Springer) was in a grocery store was a 400 pound woman in a bright red spandex matching top and pants with get this:  sequins   she looked like a giant blood clot rolled in disco sprinkles and had on silver pumps.  Bright pink lipstick dark blue eye shadow and burgundy rouge.  This was the scariest female I have ever seen.  Her jewelry looked like it was stolen from PeeWee Herman's house (before he got arrested lol) she strutted thru the store like she owned it. 

     
    So, how's your eyesight after seeing that spectacle! LOL
     
    I won't lie...I hate fashion. I really, really don't care about it, and as long as I have jeans, tshirts, and tennis shoes, I'm good to go. Grant it, I don't look like complete trash either, and I always dress up when I have to, but I firmly believe that if I had to redo my wedding, it'd be jeans and tshirts (and my dogs) all the way. With that said, there are some fashion things I find really annoying/mildly amusing. 
     
    For instance, what's up with girls who really don't care that their g-strings are hanging out of their jeans? Seriously, I see enough of my own butt in one day that I really don't feel the need to look at others'. Several years ago, I was sitting in through an English class when the guy behind me poked me and pointed to a girl a few seats away. She was leaning over, and all you could see was her camoulflage thong and her big white butt. Worse yet, she wore the same one several days in a row (I didn't make a habit of looking. It was obvious lol), so I'm hoping she had more than one. The best fashion disaster I've witnessed occurred last year at the Beau Rivage casino in Biloxi, which may or may not be standing anymore. We had tickets to see Ron White, and before the show, we waited around in the bar, where this girl couldn't keep her pants on...seriously. She was drunk, of course, but she kept sliding in her seat, and by the end of the night, everyone there saw her butt. At one point, I honestly thought her pants would fall off completely. After about 30 minutes of her peep show, she got up from her seat (holding up her pants), and everyone applauded. [sm=lol.gif]

    There was a girl like that in one of my Spanish classes in college.  She either wore the same jeans all the time or all of her jeans fit exactly the same, because every time she would lean forward in her seat, even a little bit, her butt crack (no underward in sight, don't know if she was comando or just had really low ones) stuck way out of her pants.
     
    I knew her in HS, and she was not all that nice to me, so everytime I thought about telling her her a$$ was showing I was like, "Hmmm--maybe not..."

    Aww, how can you NOT like baggy pants, lol. Every guy around here wears their pants down at their knees, but I'm used to it so I guess thats why I like it.

    lol, well I guess you wouldn't like it very much where I live, because thats all that they wear around here . . . .

    Three things I've learned in over 30 years of retail....
     
    "It's good to wear colors, just not all of them at the same time.";
     
    "Everyone has a full length mirror at home, some choose not to use it."
    & my fave,
     
    "Just 'cause it comes in your size, don't mean you should wear it."

    I hate the pre-ripped clothing fashion. Someone please make it stop. I was trying so hard to avoid it, but I accidently bought a pair of pants that have a little bit of the pre-wear on them. I didn't realize it until I was wearing them one day that they have a little fake wear on the knee. Without the fake rip, they would be sorta nice, but with the fake rip, they just look like trashy junk. I can't really wear them anywhere that I am trying to look sorta nice, because at least I wouldn't wear pants with rips if I were trying to look nice.

    Also, maybe I am the only person with this problem because I have disproportionately short legs, but why do all pants have really long inseams. I realize I am disproportionately short legged (I am 5'6" and have a 28' inseam, my mom is 5'4" and hers is 29') but come on, the length of some pants is totally ridiculous. Maybe there is someone out there that can wear pants with a 33" inseam without ridiclously high shoes,but I would need some pretty big shoes to pull that off. I don't think i'm asking for too much, I just want to be able to, just one time, buy a pair of pants that is not too long for me. Is that really so much to ask for?

    I have a hard time finding things that aren't freak show quality.  I'm like Marlania; I like jeans T shirts, sneaks,  all clean, wrinkleless, clean, no holes other than the ones you need to get your legs into the pants.  I hate stains with a passion, I feel very conspicuous.  I feel bad for one girl I work with, she is 6'2" no joke.  She towers over all of us. 
    How do you like when someone raises up an arm to show off a four inch arm pit hole?  Ick!
    Remember National Lampoon's vacation where the brother in law was wearing a speedo with a t-shirt tucked in, tennis shoes with crew socks   I like to throw up on that one.   [:'(]    Jules
    BTW:  blinded after the disco-clot woman...gave me a migraine.

    The other day I saw a kid that's really slim and he was wearing something that's 5X his size.  It just looks weird and trying too hard.  Then comes the brand name sneakers that every kid got to have.......ick.  [:'(]

    What is so overrated is those pre-torn jeans that they are overpriced!! and people are buying them. I don't beleive in buying luxury clothes because once it out of style or it worn out, you probably won't wear it again. I only buy expensive shoes because it feels better and last long.

    I'm just simple, Jacket, White shirt or polo, jeans and either flip flop or casual shoes. I know and my friend told me that I'm conservative. lol

    I will NOT buy the pre-torn jeans for my DSs--they have plenty that are already worn out!!!

    I swore that I would pull down a teen's pants one day.  I have known this boy since he was six, so I am like another parent to him.  He came struttin' by with his pants waist down to mid-thigh.  I said, "Koah, pull those up or I will pull tham DOWN!".  I told him I was NOT kidding and he pulled them up!

    As long as I can have Birkenstocks, capris (summer) jeans (winter) and some t shirts, I am set. DH's idea of wild fashion is Levi's and a NEW t shirt! ROFLLL The fashion industry would go broke in six weeks with all of us!!![:D]

    What bugs me about other women wearing them is that they always buy a size too small because they won't stay up otherwise. And thus you get the plumber's butt. But so many teens and young women are overweight now, and wearing those short short tops, that now you get this GAP that is butt crack in the back and stomach hanging out in the front. What on earth makes them think that is stylish?

    I was just going to say, I hate it when overweight folks wear clothing that is WAY too small for them. I do not want to show off my fat and rolls to anyone or point it out, and I surely do not want to see their fat and rolls. YUK!

    why don't they just go out in bikini bottoms

     
    That wouldn't bother me a bit.
