Fashion Violations


Recommended Posts

My kids...kinda missed the boat when the fashion fairy was giving out fashion sense lol

We told them they are moving to a rather preppy area and in order to conform they might want to add a bit of color to the totally black and white goth wardrobe they usually wear...maybe wear something conservative once in awhile besides just to work and school...

And so they go to salvation army and whatnot

And buy EXACTLY the same styles...striped mini's and tanks...with arm warmers and leg warmers and head bands and stuff....

JUST LIKE WHAT THEY WEAR NOW but in (get this peeps) RAINBOW COLORS!!!

I mean its cute, but I had to tell them now they look like ravers lol

And they mix and match the colors

(and neither has ever done E)

Its funny. Oh and they love skittles lol

Some friends have also been nagging me to stop wearing all black. What do I do? Add reds and purples and sometimes browns and grays! My sense of fashion is stuck somewhere in between a crypt, a post-apocalyptic war zone and a circus.

: )

And I go, you look like ravers. Seriously. Ya got hit by rainbow brights magick wand eh? All that candi goin to yer head?

So I said, its cute....but now people won't just be asking if you know where to get weed and shrooms...they will expect you can get chemicals too.

(people always assume they party because of how they dress, they have been asked numerous times if they could score something)

raver clothes hurt my eyes

I can tell that said model was paid (lowly) and is just doing her job as opposed to actually being interested in that style.

All for $100, one gets to look like a tart that everyone will assume is rolling and willing to pay $5 for a bottle of water. Anyone who spends that much money on such a simple costume deserves to be questioned by the police (who, in the UK can question anyone they suspect is going to a rave and make them show them where the rave is if the rave is within five miles).

It might have been in the original law, but you could read up about it at http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/rave and track it down. Part V deals with raves.

*shrug* I don't think about fashion all that much.

I wear combat boots at times, work boots other times. Why combat boots? I'm used to them. Have I ever signed up for military service? Actually yes. Why the work boots? Comfort. The end.

I saw Dickies and Carhart stuff mentioned. I wear both at times. Why? Functionality. I work hard and it's hell on clothing :p

My normal style though? My combat boots, some black jeans, random t shirt that I find comfortable. Usually with a band on it, as I advertise my music of choice.

Fashionable of me? Hell probably not. Does it matter to me? Not a bit :D

Ok, I guess I wouldn't technically call it a fashion "violation", but does anyone else think that those emo guys with the horizontal striped long sleeved t-shirts and the tight jeans and the longish haircuts and the glasses look like "Where's Waldo?"

I have trouble not laughing when I see those guys out.

I KNOW exactly what you mean now. I saw a guy like that at the Kids In The Hall in Royal Oak. His pants looked painted on and that fucker knew how to feather his hair like no one's business.

Punk Princess were at the mall on the 4th, and we saw some terrible outfits and ensembles on display in the store Forever 21. The outfits in the glass windows were so bad that we just HAD to go into the store to see what was in there, and our eyes needed salvation by the time we left. She said that the outfits on the mannequins looked like they were put together in the dark by a blind person. She also said that she was going to re-dress them, but that didn't actually end up happening. :rofl:

All I can say is that there's a difference between being unique and being just plain stupid.

dork dork dork!!!

:grouphug

still :wub: you tho :p

I have to admit, I personally can't do the underarm hair. I am a fat chick who sweats alot. I would REEK to HIGH HELL if I tried that.

If possible, I would like to get zapped by a lazer or something so that various parts of my body never grow hair again!

Razors are expensive, and it seems like I am FOREVER shaving...some part of me.

BUT (personally speaking) I feel a lot better about myself when I am "cleanly shaven"

(laughs) I am starting to imagine the replys I am going to get from that last comment already! :w00t:

and how about those shirts that have the seams that are supose to go under the breasts... i hate hate hate when girls w/ HUGE boobs wear those shirts, cuz everyone can see that the shit doesn't fit!!! the seam is either in the middle of the boobs, or above them all together.... :rant: i just wanna walk up to those ppl and smack them!!! :rant:

YES! Gawd that drives me nuts. Also when large-busted women wear bras that are too small & give the "double titty" effect. I know it can be hard to find well-fitting bras in those sizes, but seems like it would be worth the effort for comfort if nothing else. I will second the opinion that just 'cos you can wedge yourself into a garment, doesn't mean you should buy and wear it.

I think a lot of the problems with the way women of all shapes' clothing fits these days is the LACK of proper "foundation garments."

Looking back about 50 years ago, a lady wouldn't be caught dead without the proper shapewear underneath! Whether it be a well-fitting longline brassiere or a girdle, some clothes are just MADE to be worn over these things!

True dat. My great-aunt, who passed 2 yrs ago at age 92, wore a girdle every day until she went to join the ancestors. No way did she NEED to wear one, either... but she always said she felt "loose & floppy" without one. My mom & aunts all wore them when I was little, but abandoned them in the '70s.

And yeah, some clothes really do require foundation garments... you realize that pretty quickly if you've ever tried to wear a vintage '50s dress without the requisite bullet bra. Sweater dresses are a prime example- they look better on a curvy figure, yes, but without a body briefer or some other one-piece undergarment, you get all kinds of unflattering rolls & bulges.

One problem is that after the late '60s & '70s, women just didn't know about foundation garments... now you have a whole generation of women whose mothers didn't wear them, so the knowledge wasn't passed on.

Pregnant women in little bitty belly shirts. I haven't seen as much of it in the last couple years, since longer shirts are more popular now in general, but yuck. I don't want to look at someone's fat rolls hanging out of the bottom of a cropped shirt, and I don't want to look at someone's big fat pregnant belly hanging out.

I think that falls into the category of "Just because they make it in your size doesn't mean you should wear it."
