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

Except for leggings as pants (I don't wear leggings) I do every single thing on this thread and I don't give a f#ck what anyone thinks.

Based on what I read on this fashion forum and the celeb forum, everything I do is a faux pas. It hasn't stopped me. Chat Icon

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

Oh lord. Here we go.

I wear band tees all the time. All the time. Concert tees from the early 90's. I just unearthed a Breeders tee that smells like a mossy storage bin and I need to wash the hell out of it!

I never stopped wearing babydoll dresses. I have amassed a collection over the past twenty years and wear them with my crappy old converse or Docs.

My one and only pair of Docs was a Sweet 16 gift. They will be 19 years old next month and I still wear the shit out of them. I used to have yellow Yoo Hoo laces in them that I got at a Warped Tour but now they have black laces with cherries on them.

I have a sheer shirt that has tiny unicorns printed all over it. I love it. I got it at Forever 21 a long time ago and I will wear it until it crumbles.

I have orange sunglasses with zebra stripes on them that make me feel like an honorary member of the B-52's.

In summary - I'm never letting go of the 90's. Every day my featured ad on Facebook is JNCO. No lie.

I miss JNCOs.

I probably wear my blush heavier than I should but I don't care, I like it.

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



Same!

I NEVER match them. Chat Icon

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

I have a lot. Here we go:

I wear black and brown together ALL.THE.TIME. Especially in the fall.

My bra straps show through when I wear a racerback tank and I don't give a crap.

I wear sandals without getting a pedicure about 95% of the time.

I wear leggings as pants.

*This one is recent only since getting pregnant* I wear black jeggings to work (with a nice top) just about every single day because I'm preggo and fat and nothing else is comfortable and I really just dont give a f&ck.

I think people are saying you should wear a longer shirt with them to cover your ass.

But IMO they aren't TIGHTS- tights aren't pants. Leggings ARE!

I wear leggings on the weekends with shirts that don't cover my ass fully. I am tall so it's rare for a shirt to cover my ass.

I have a good ass though and I don't hear any complaints about how it looks in leggings.!

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

Yea my biggest one is the black leggings as pants. I did buy some that aren't so "see-through" but honestly? I feel like leggings smooth and squish my legs/butt perfectly to have a hour-glass figure and I'm not trying to cover it up with a t-shirt. So whatevs. Chat Icon Chat Icon

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.




Me too. My boobs are huge. Nothing I can do about it. A strapless doesn't work and it has to be so tight that I get hives under it. (I have a weird hive condition). Sometimes I wear the strapless, but most of the time I have bra straps and you can see it in my fat on my back.

Also VPL. I try to get smoother underwear, but I can deal with thongs anymore.

High leg cut panties.
Can't do a thong and need a bit more coverage for my butt.
Don't care about VPL, I think it's better than seeing an azz shake like jello under clothing.

Thin strap tanks and dresses with bra straps showing. Why? Because I don't care and can't find a strapless bra that fits well.

I also probably dress a little young for my age (flowy tops, peasant dresses, boho sundresses) but again, I don't care. I like my style and often receive compliments on my outfits.

I once saw someone wearing BEIGE tights as pants. I believe she legit did not know - they were the footless ones, but it made me wish I could unsee things
