Top Eleven Fashion Disasters I worry about....on or off Campus...
1.PANTYLINES. Can you see the outline of my underwear when I wear these jeans? I don't know how many times I have asked my friends/mom/person I just met/etc. this question. There is nothing more noticeable to me than the outline of underwear. It makes me paranoid and I try to avoid it at all times.
2. Black and Brown. Personally, I don't think these colors go together. Especially brown pants and black shoes. Or a black belt with brown pants. Or a brown shirt with black pants. Basically, any combination with the colors black and brown worn at the same time make me a little sad.
3. Slippers are not shoes. Printed PJ's are not pants.
4. Sometimes, when I go to work, I wear flip flops before my shift starts and then change into heels. Yet, I never have worn sneakers to work with my work clothing on. The trend of wearing sneakers on the commute to work while wearing business clothes is something I think looks funny, even if doing so saves a couple blisters in the process.
5. Scrunchies. I am not sure why these are still worn, but they bring me back to the days of the 90's. Today, there are so many hair-ties that are less in-your-face and don't take away from the clothes you wear. Headbands are also a great option.
6.Baggy Clothing. Wearing bigger clothes makes you look...bigger. Or like a little kid trying to play dress-up. Or self- conscious that if you don't hold onto your baggy jeans they might drop around your ankles.
7.Spandex anything. I guess my only comment to spandex is: Why?
8.Mixing Prints. Stripes with plaid. Leopard with Zebra. Polka dots with floral. OK, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit, but mixing prints confuses me. I don't think that prints are bad at all, but when wearing them I pair them with a solid color, like a zebra print skirt with a black top.
9.Mesh. If you wear mesh, you might as well not wear any clothes, I have the same feelings with #7 on my list as well.
10. Statement T-shirts. "Team Aniston" & "Mrs. Clooney" & shirts that state "I'm with Stupid" areTMI. While you may care about pop culture, you don't have to broadcast it across your chest.
11. Toe-socks. They hurt a lot and are a pain to put on and no one can see all the hard work it took you to put them on in the first place. Unless you show everyone you see that you are wearing toe-socks, which would be weird. Maybe not if you are younger then 7 and are a girl at a sleepover.

you make me smile.
I totally agree with the black and brown thing -- I am constantly telling people NOT to where black belts when they have brown shoes on, it just doesn't work! Also totally agree with scrunchies and toe-socks, if people are still wearing these things they better be under the age of 10!
My father-in-law (God bless him) is constantly violating number eight. His motto? "Nice goes with nice."
I work at an amusement park....and let me tell you there are many people there who will ignore rule number 8. I guess they figure they're at the beach and it doesn't count!
