Your Fashion Pet Peeves

I posted a question on Facebook a couple weeks ago, asking, "What's your biggest fashion pet peeve?" I myself have oodles of pet peeves, from wearing sunglasses indoors to white socks to hipsters wearing certain items "ironically", but I wanted to see what others secretly (or not-so-secretly) despised. Here are a few things that drive you nuts, in no particular order:

Douchebag baseball caps. These are becoming more and more ubiquitous within the younger set (kids today!). It's not the hat itself, per se, but the manner in which it's worn. Jen says, "It just sits on the top of their head loosely. It looks like it is about to fall off!" I might add that these hats never seem to be the correct size (always too big), and as Rob mentioned, have a perfectly straight brim and all the retail stickers still attached. I'm fairly certain this is some unexplained urban status symbol thing that I am far too old to understand, but reality check, kiddos. You look stupid.

Pants. Well, not all pants. Rob hates capri pants. Angela hates leggings as pants (agreed, leggings are non-pants). Both Kathryn and Samantha hate mens' skinny jeans, and Breanne hates low-rise. I hate pre-destroyed jeans, as I believe in breaking in your own denim. There are remarkably few pants that are not offensive. Pants are inherently evil.

Faddish footwear. "Freakin' Crocs!" was one of the very first responses to my query, which was unsurprising (preach to the choir, sister). Kathryn makes a bold statement, saying, "The gladiator sandal is so over." It would have to be, as now everyone I see wears some variation on this theme, making it mainstream and thus not fashion-forward. Dolls, I never said fashion wasn't exhausting!

Finally, my favorite answer came from Marc, who says he hates "People who wear clothes in general! Lets get primal again people!" But then what would I blog about?

New Era Boston Red Sox 59FIFTY Cap (bend your damn brim!), $35.99
