Trends I Hate Vol. 1

There are quite a few items that are trending right now, and I'm dumbfounded. It's either hideous or tacky or looks just plain 'grandmotherish'.  How the heck can people actually like this stuff? It's beyond me.

Let me preface by saying, I'm no fashionista. I know what I like, and most of it I can't even pull off. I also know what I don't like. Everyone has different tastes and opinions, so please don't be offended if you like some of the things I'm about to post. To each their own.

That being said, this is my blog, and by golly, I'm going to say it out loud: I hate these things! Here we go...

Most Lilly Pulitzer- Granted, I've seen some pretty cute Lilly items, but for most of it, I'm not a fan of...unless you're 5.

And here are a few items I've seen a lot of lately on men.
Lilly Pulitzer on men


Bow Ties
Am I the only one that feels this way?

  1. I would agree to most of these, although as the trends die out that's when I tend to jump on...it takes me a little while to be "ok" with it.

    But I will say there's just something about a guy with a bow tie... :)

  2. Hahaha I agree with you! I hate the way that Chaco's look, but I have some because I worked at a camp one summer, and they were practical. They aren't attractive though. And it takes a certain "look" on a guy to pull off a bow tie.

  3. With all due respect, I still love me some combat boots, on either men or women (but especially on men).
