    I actually love one shoulder dresses and shirts. I find them to be very flattering on me. There are a ton of trends I don't get but I can't think of a single one right now...

  • The 70s styles coming back this fall. Hideous.

    I love one shoulder dresses, they are very flattering on me, but I don't get the one shoulder long sleeve look.

    What the what? I take issue with lots of trends (LOTS... basically anything trendy), but I don't see the issue with these

    Just not my style.  I guess it's really not an "issue".

  • I don't even know if these are trendy, but a list of things I don't like/get:

    Multiple ear piercing
    Any body piercing besides a single hole in your earlobes
    Tattoos
    Almost anything "retro"
    Hair feathers
    Unnatural hair color dye
    Blunt bangs
    Red or any color besides neutral pants
    1980's sunglasses everyone is wearing now
    Bright nailpolish
    Colored tights... well, any tights.

    We wouldn't be able to hang out. I have, have had or thought of having all of these. Red hair or pants? ETA: Red pants, I see that now. Reading comprehension fail.

    LOL. I've said before, I am really not adventurous in fashion. Or anything.Natural red hair is totally okay (I have an unnatural love for gingers actually) but I've seen lots of red pants for fall. I'm not feeling that.

    These family stickers drive me nuts.

    Every time I see these on a mini van I LOL.  I keep threatening DH that I am going to put those on my 4runner, but they will be the ones with the family wearing the mickey ears.

    I totally had the Mickey family with my XH, it took up my whole passenger side back window. It's now been downsized to just one dog and one cat, no people. lol

  • I really don't understand the teenage boy trend with the hair all in their face a la Justin Bieber. CUT YOUR FREAKING HAIR!!

    That's all I have for now but I am sure I will think of more later.

    Stacked heels, which I love. Stilettos freak me out.

  • I just thought of a trend I don't like. The Missoni for Target line released and the F&Bers are going BSC over it. I don't like it all. It looks like old lady 70s prints. I might get the ballet flats and maybe a sweater, but that's it.

    Common ground! That shiit is ugly.

    Yes, this is the ugly 70s trend shiit I was referring to.
  • I looooove 70s stuff (but, just a little of it).

     

    I don't get scarves.

  • Really, really high heels PLUS a mini platform on the sole, and it seems like about 2/3rds of heels sold right now are in that style.

    Batwings: you know what's flattering? all boob, no waist. Oh, wait, no it isn't.

    Ha! I just converted MJW to a scarf lover! My trendiness is taking over! Lol, I never really thought of myself as trendy, I just wear what I like, but I have to admit I usually like the trends. I'm a sheep that way.

  • I was just going to mention the Missoni for Target crap. Why is there a whole line designed around one pattern? I don't get it.

    Also, I've always laughed at those family mini van stickers and wondered what happened when a family divorces...then I saw a van with a big "X" over the dad stick figure. It got a laugh & a Indifferent from me.

    I also love every single one shoulder thing LB posted!

    Look at you taking credit for my newfound trendiness ;) The blue star scarf I ordered came in the mail yesterday. I just need to figure out how to wear it.

    I also don't get the new platform Lady Gaga-ish heels that are everywhere. They're not cute or remotely comfortable looking.

  • I think scarves for women are fine, but I don't like the look on men.

  • I actually mind them less on men..... well, as long as they are European.

  • I think I would laugh at a dude if he had a scarf on.

  • I thought of another one... I don't like man-pris (Capris for men).
