Items of clothing/shoes you really can't stand...

[kabbes]

Sometimes I only do up one button.

 

[Fedayn]

I wore a cardigan the other week and sojourner said I looked like Val Doonican.

I am very distantly related to Mr Doonican.

 

[dodgepot]

I fought the law, and I won.

and i gave the law a swift kick in the ribs whilst it lay bleeding on the floor after you'd finished with it.

cardigans

i want a college cardigan. preferably with a big D on the chest.

You are a renegade.

Up the front, unlike upchuck, I presume.

 

[kabbes]

You are a renegade.

That's not the half of it. Sometimes I don't even put it in the right buttonhole.

That's not on purpose though.

 

[Tank Girl]

erm... I'm not too sure about the cardi that dodgers wants

Letterman! I did a google for letterman cardigan/sweater as I thought that might look quite good.

But after that google I am not so sure.

Those extreme harem pants that have the crotches below the knees. I mean, srsly wtf? They're truly awful. I don't think I object to any clothing as much as to those.
But also:
Leggings worn by themselves make me feel like I've inadvertently walked into a changing room.
Anything with tassels (that isn't worn for religious purposes).

 

[dodgepot]

But after that google I am not so sure.

it's okay - you don't need to be. i can be sure for you.

 

[dodgepot]

i have also googled and i am also now not too sure.

i'm not ruling anything out though, bredrin.

I can imagine it being right.

But all of the evidence I have seen so far says otherwise.

I will keep believing though.

There's something very wrong with criticising an item of clothing on the grounds that it is "pointless". If we stuck to purely functional items that have no alternatives, we'd all be wearing the same thing.

If you don't like city shorts (I'd never heard of them before myself, but there you go) then you don't like them because you don't like them. Saying you don't like them because you could just wear a skirt instead is stoopid.

You could wear a skirt instead because it would look BETTER, is the point.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

have you got a phobia of buttons?

I don't think so but I do hate them, especially over size buttons.

 

[100% masahiko]

Sleeveless shirts get on me tits. A sleevless shirt with a pen-pocket is even worse. What kind of a sick fucker invented such a thing?

 

[danny la rouge]

Sleeveless shirts

You don't mean short-sleeved? Actually no sleeves?

 

[Hellsbells]

Ugg boots are just wrong, especially when worn with skirts and dresses. I've been wearing slippers round the house for YEARS that are identical to ugg boots. I'd never dream of wearing anything like that outside the house. Aside from looking stupid, they destroy your feet. For gods sake, they're bloody granny slippers!!!
And they cost a riddiculous fortune aswell.
Paying £90 plus for a pair of granny slippers why????

 

[pinkmonkey]

I love harem pants, but I did get the crotch of mine jammed round my bike seat yesterday
I love shorts, wear them more than skirts.

I am really, really, sick of dominatrix platform shoes - just bought Elle and it's full of them again. I've been sick of them for about a year now, I wish they would go away.

 

[May Kasahara]

yes, those shoes need to die.

 

[dodgepot]

yep, there have been some really fucking foul shoes around lately. it seems like as long as it's got a fuck-off heel, it doesn't matter how ugly it looks - people will buy it.

 

[100% masahiko]

Sorry - short sleeved (work fatigue is getting to me).

 

[Popsicle]

Fringed items, and anything 'folk'. Yuk yuk yuk.

Those strange vests that are kind of tent-like, but you need another vest underneath or they'd be indecent, and when you try them on, are actually more like dresses, but add about a stone to your visual weight. I'm actually not sure what they are, but Topshop have loads of them.

Anyway, them.

 

[Tank Girl]

a lot of the shops seem to be full of those horrid vests popsicle

 

[pengaleng]

gladiator fucking sandals

 

[electrogirl]

I hate those jeans with the weirdy faded line down the front of the legs, I think they're meant to look cool and distressed/faded but they look weird.

Foregin students wear them.

I know which ones you mean. Urgh.

 

[Tank Girl]

I hate jeans like that too - and just when you need to buy jeans they're all you can bloody find *bleurgh*

 

[Dillinger4]

Jeans are definitely the most difficult thing to buy. IMO.

 

[Tank Girl]

even worse with sparkly plastic jewels on them.

or lacing up the legs.

or across the back.

and the worst offenders sometimes have all that, plus lace.

*vom*

Yeah even Topshop have been guilty of having them in the past.

EVEN TOPSHOP.
