What's your personal fashion "faux pas"?

Something you rock all the time no matter what others think/say - because you like the look or just because it's comfortable!

For me it's a visible bra line/bra strap. I am just too big on top, there is no hiding them anymore especially if I wear clingy and/or sleeveless tops.

I wear Bikini undies with my yoga leggings. I mostly wear them to the gym. And while some are ok with working out in a thong, I am not. I'd literally be sawed in half by the end of my workout lol

VPL all the way when at the gym. Which means at the supermarket and target when I'm leaving the gym lol

Re: What's your personal fashion "faux pas"?

I dont always match my fingernails and toes. Some may cringe at the thought, but the polish on my toes can last for three weeks. I'm lucky if I go chip free after 3 days on my fingertips. By the end of the week, I take off the polish on my nails and paint them myself. I at least try to stay in the same color family Chat Icon

I never knew this was even a no no!
I do it on purpose.
I like different colors on my fingers vs toes

Yeah, I don't consider that a faux pas at all. I always do different colors on feet and hands. Most people I know do that too

I use the same bag, no matter what I am wearing, even if it doesn't match. I like colored bags, so it's not like I have a black or tan bag that matches everything. For this spring/summer, I have a light pink bag that I love and use every day, even if I'm wearing red or another color that it doesn't go with. I have a cobalt blue bag also, that I used for quite a while and will probably go back to that one for the fall/winter. Don't care if it doesn't match - I just love the bags themselves that I want to use them all the time

I don't consider this a faux pas either! I purposely don' do my fingers & toes the same color. I think they should "go together" but not match!

I do this too. I never even owned a black bag until this past March, and even that has gold handles and a green liner Chat Icon Like you, I just choose bags that I love no matter what color.

Same.
And I have ZERO patience or time to be changing bags every morning. The thought of that is just exhausting to me

Lucikly the bag I liked this year for spring is a light, pale grey - so it goes with pretty much everything.

But my fall bag was a moss green- and last spring I had a baby blue bag- clashed with a lot but I didn't care!

Not even going to contribute right now- I'm a pregnant hot mess. Everything is a faux pas

I think my hair. No matter what's "in", I just like my hair a certain way. Bangs, layers, angled in the front. No fuss...

Uggs. They're warm and comfy and you will have to pry them from my cold, dead feet.

I mix lots of colors and prints. Yesterday I wore black ankle pants with a black and white striped top and leopard pumps. Today is white anke pants, tropical green top and bright blue sandals. I call it the "no match match"

See, I feel like the outfits you described are a fashion "do" that most of us are just not brave enough to attempt!

I guess mine is white pants before and after labor day but I feel like that's not even really a rule anymore.

Re: What's your personal fashion "faux pas"?

socks with sandals (not real sandals but those slide beach shoes)....... I need socks with these, my feet sweat too much & I need to be comfortable. I know it looks dorky but I don't care!!! I'm not in a fashion show & people can laugh all they want.

I mix navy, black, & brown.... I used to care, not anymore.
