1. Tank tops on men..... period. Just yew!!

2. Beach (holey) Crocs as a casual shoe. Please just buy a real pair of shoes.

3. Black sock with sandals. Are you really trying to be my grandfather?

4. Armpit stained shirts. Again just yew, people.

5. White socks with anything other than active wear! Come, are you really that uncoordinated?

What say you? Add your own.

Crocs period. Jesus, this is why they make trainers and slippers and those three dollar maryjanes in chinatown and just about everything else.

I wear the traditional croc, (not the cayman) for work, but that is all. baby spit-up is not conducive to practical shoes. This is also why I wear scrubs.

6. More than one piece of jewelry on a man. Anything gold or overly shiny on the chest... *shakes head* Honestly people, are you _trying_ out for a role on the soprano's?

I had a three dollar mary jane from chinatown once and I had the worst case of "cooties" for the next year.
 
I'll be controversial...

Capri pants
Flats on women, unless you're sophio coppola-ish - then it's fabulous
shorts
underwear or tushy coming out of your pants
light denim pants
pleated pants
pants that are too short
clothes that don't fit

Oh, I have more. I'm a bitch. <hangs head in shame>

I love you... keep them coming.
 
I saw this interesting outfit on someone while Kitty and I were out shopping last month.

Yes, on some people, capri or cropped pants with knee-high boots is cute. Emphasis on some people. But for God's sake, don't wear Bermuda shorts and boots and think it's the same thing. :eek: It's the dead of winter; showing nothing but your knees is far from attractive.

But then, I think Bermuda shorts are Teh Tacky, too, so that could just be my personal bias showing.

If you wear scrubs or kitchen whites you get a free pass, and that's it.

Oh, I actually momentarily forgot the capri or jean tucked into the boot thing. Um, some people can pull it off, but very few. And if you have to ask...

And some people can pull off the capri/boot thing with capris that aren't uber-skinny and therefore fit over the top of the boot. But Miss Bermudas And Boots wasn't getting it at all. :eek:
 
Spandex as outer wear has a weight limit.

And 300 lbs is is about 2.5 times the legal limit.

6'5" gorilla-hairy men wearing a teddy and fishnet stockings.

In broad daylight, in downtown Atlanta, with children present. Even DragonCon has standards, thank you.

Mixing plaids.


Paisley anything.

Except maybe for Shanky. Maybe.
 
7. Tube tops. Seriously women if you think you're pulling off, think again. S-K-A-N-K-Y!!!!

8. Rhinestones... period. Unless you are preforming on stage, please leave the flare at home.

9. Overly plucked eye-brows brows. Why even pluck if you're just gonna draw them back in?

10. Big hair. Really, it's not 1985 anymore. Step away from the the aerosol.

Here's something I'm going to weigh in on.

I only like knee high boots if the skirt is past the knee. Otherwise it looks cheap and common.

What else?

Too much makeup
too many accessories

I have a sweater dress that hits the knee in which I wear my knee high boots with, but then again that falls into the sophia category i think.

Aww you stole the one that popped to mind immediately!

sooo... prewrinkled anything that looks like your grandmother took it out from under her couch cushions (dont ask! lol)
 
This isn't going to be popular here, but I think fishnets are trashy as hell. Also, too much blush or mascara. Gross.
