I hate that some trends these days have the same name as children’s clothing, like booties and rompers, which shouldn’t refer to women’s clothing. And then there’s brogues. Since when are men’s and school marn shoes, fashionable for ladies? I also hate when they say that something was too girly so it needed to be toughened up. We’re girls so there’s nothing wrong with being girly. I also want clogs removed from the fashion list. I am horrified to see them in Chanel’s collection. Coco wouldn’t approve. I may be 1/4 Swedish but I still don’t like them.

edgy! lol , it’s just a word to justify horrible outfits! when someone is wearing a weird thing , fashion folks always say ” it’s edgy” or “avant-garde!”. Well it’s not, the right word is ugly. And I agree a leather jacket doesn’t automatically make something edgy.
Bang on trend : no comment

For me there is a couple of them, first of all “the rocking if is not in a band it should’t be done”, and I’m a big hater of the “IT” frase.
But my personal number 1 is “VINTAGE”, and don’t get me wrong I love things are diferent and with history, what bother me is the concept: why if something is second hand, or old is cheap, but if you add the damn “VINTAGE” word sudenly it cost a fortune.
And my other one is more generic, I’m from Spain and it really bother me when people use therms that they really don’t understand just because their read it in a magazine.
PS:Sorry if my english is not very good.Love your blogs.

No, you’re not alone–I definitely feel you on this one! I hadn’t even thought of that, but that bothers me too. Yech. “Trouser.” Should not be a word. Ever.

Well, I’m blessed enough to be 5’6″ and I love martial arts, so I have thin shoulders and arms. I actually cut my hair short for a play I was in (I was cast as Peter Pan), but I’m astounded by the women that treat my *not even terribly* thin frame as something to whisper at. I’m assuming my lack of hair is partially to blame, but a woman actually approached me at work one day and asked me what kind of cancer I had and told me that I was brave to come out looking like i did. It broke my heart a but. I’m seventeen, five six and one hundred and twenty pounds, but apparently that is physically impossible without having a mortal illness. It’s quite hurtful.
