Speaking of What Not to Wear...your list
Replies

Oh dear, I think I must fall into the trashy department as Im currently wearing a tank top with a normal bra....to my defense its a bloody good bra (im not a shoe or handbag girl....im all about the underwear! hehe).
On the plus side, I refuse to wear a short skirt whilst overweight and would NEVER left my pants/thong show above my jeans. So only half trashy
I agree to looking sexy but legs and boobs should never be exposed together!
I've never got the pyjamas in public, which is a shockingly normal thing where I live...even one lass wore her slippers in the pub!0 -
I could make a pretty good list:
Women:
- Makeup around your eyes that makes you look like a raccoon.
- Glitter. Especially enough that it will get on me.
- Too much foundation.
- Leggings. Especially when you wear them as pants.
- Skirts with Uggs. I know Uggs keep your feet warm, but what is going to keep your vagina warm?
- The Gwen Stefani hair thing.
- The wrong bra size. I don't care how big they are; it's how you wear them.
- Sunglasses that cover more than half of your face. I like Aviators as much as the next guy, and even Clubmasters, but if you are wearing sunglasses that stretch from above your brow to below your lip, that is just too much (unless you are the type who should cover more of your face).
- Ill-fitting clothes. Don't buy stuff that is too small then try to work your way into fitting into it. I know that will be controversial here, but odds are, you'll squeeze it on before it actually fits.
- Gaudiness and/or fakeness. Just in general. It's bad.
- Plastic shoes.
Men:
- Skinny jeans.
- Loud jewelry. Men's jewelry should be understated. A nice pair of links and a fashionable watch. There is acceptable neckwear, but you really have to be the type that can pull it off.
- Lucky Charms watches or anything you would get in a cereal box. Sorry hipsters. It's terrible.
- Short sleeve shirt with tie.
- Warped shoes. If you have a job where you need to wear dress shoes, you can probably afford new dress shoes when the others are too scuffed or warped.
- Comb overs.
- Cell phone belt clips.
- Too much stuff in your pockets. Lighten up. Literally.
- Athletic socks in non-athletic situations. I don't want to see your Hanes ankle socks under your Johnston and Murphy kicks.
Unisex:
- Sweatpants. I don't care if you are working out or lounging around the house. Sweatpants mean you are giving up.
- Ill-fitting clothes. Have a little self-respect.
- Pants with belt loops without wearing a belt. The loops are there for a reason.
I didn't read other people's additions to the topic so some of these have probably been mentioned already.

There's people round here wearing Ugg boots with bare legs and summer skirts :noway:0
-
- Sweatpants. I don't care if you are working out or lounging around the house. Sweatpants mean you are giving up.
What if the person wearing sweatpants is on the way home from the gym? Or returning from a run? Surely both cases present perfectly legitimate reasons for wearing sports clothes in public?!
Also, I have to say that really, what people do in their own homes is entirely up to them! For half of the population, at certain times of the month, sweatpants indoors are a blessing - it doesn't mean we are giving up, it means we are women with stomach cramps. And PMS....so you'd better watch out! :laugh:0 -
oh I forgot to biggies
wet look leggings....i mean, leggings are bad enough without adding extra shine yuk!
And leather trousers....on men or women!!!!! The only except to this is bikers!
I just think of ross gellar lol0 -
I see I have a problem here. Perhaps someone here can advise me:
Mom jeans are bad, but I'm not to wear hip-huggers because I'm not at my goal weight. What jeans am I to wear???0 -
Agree with socks and sandles
Tap-out or Affliction t-shirts especially if your over 35
Sport team attire on the ski slopes.
Crocs or other plastic shoes
Pajamas in public seriously you can't take the time to get dressed before going out0 -
LOL I love my Croc's. But then again most of mine aren't the bubble style shoes with the holes in the top. I have a pair that look like regular sandles and 3 pair of Mary Jane style.
Spandex pants/thick tights if your pairing it with a shirt that doesn't cover your butt. The things were designed to be worn under long shirts or short skirts in the 80's - They are not a replacement for stand alone pants.
The tank top/bra thing.
Jeans that only go to the hip paired with boxers at the waist/ thong at the waist. Or anything that makes me instantly think "Pants on the Ground"
@everall Jeans should fit. You don't have to wear them at your waist but I don't want to see your knickers or crack if you bend over. Find a medium rise jean and you should be fine.0 -

I think there's a happy medium. haha Hip huggers are not good on anyone. Your buttcrack hangs out if you barely even bend over. LOL And I'm not sure what "mom jeans" are. Regular jeans? You just wear your comfy jeans and tell people to shove off. lol0 -
Girls with platform shoes. You may think it's cute and you look taller but us men think one thing- STRIPPER
It's one thing to wear high heels but when the front of the shoe has a 2" riser as well as the heel we instantly want to make it rain singles up in this BIOTCH.....
So you're tellin' me.. all I have to do to make a little extra dough is wear platform shoes? I'm going to Payless right now! :laugh:0 -
I break the pajama rule a lot.. I can't tell you how many times I've run to Walgreens and (occasionally) Walmart in pajama pants/sweat pants and a hoodie to get something random. Granted, I only do this when it's cold outside. In the summer, of course I'll wear lounge shorts instead.
Pretty much everything else that was listed I agree with. Sometimes when I'm wearing tanks, my bra strap will show, but I at least try to match the bra to the top, and I will fix it constantly. I probably need new bras, but we're broke!0 -

Straight-leg dark-wash jeans that sit about 2 inches below your belly-button. Trouser jeans rock.
No tapered legs, no pleats, no acid wash, no jeans all the way up past your belly button.0 -
1. Crocs. These things make me angry to contemplate on anyone over the age of 8. Younger than that, of course, they are perfect.
2. Ed Hardy anything. Just no. You might as well write 'I'm a douche' across your forehead
3. High heeled sneakers. You're not getting the best of both worlds here, you just look retarded
4. Formal shorts/shorts with heels.
5. Tights as pants
6. Anything as pants that are not, in fact, actual pants.
7. Trucker hats
8. High waisted pants. I mean, really? Who looks good in these?
9. Ironic T shirts
10. Anything worn just to be 'different' (especially things that are worn to be different by being the same as everyone else who wants to be different'. Make your personality excel and take the lead, not your wardrobe.
11. Ed Hardy, again.
12. UGGs with mini-skirts. You're either hot or cold. You're not both. There is never weather that calls for your thighs to be exposed but your feet safely encased in fake furry boots.0 -
Shirts that show bra straps. Don't wear a racer back tank with a regular bra. You will look trashy.
Worse when clear straps are used. Yuck! I don't know why they bother me so much but I can't stand when I see people with clear straps-- WE CAN STILL SEE YOUR BRA STRAPS! YOU'RE NOT FOOLING ANYBODY! INVEST IN SOMETHING STRAPLESS!
Can I get an AMEN? So true!0 -

I'd rather my regular strap show than those god-awful clear ones, and they're so uncomfortable! I understand that sometimes "the girls" need straps for extra support though! lol0 -
velour tracksuits with a slogan across the bum.
jogging bottoms with ugg boots
leggings and short tops. yes, we can see your knickers/*kitten*, and no, i didnt want to.
normal/non-sports bra when at the gym
shorts and Tshirt when on a motorbike
polo shirts buttoned up to the top
comedy ties
white trainers unless youre doing sport. Definitely not with jeans
Shorts and t-shirt on a motorbike/motorcycle is quite dangerous!! YIKES! I have seen this recently a couple of times. Those people are really asking for trouble.0 -
A regular bra whilst jogging. Every day I see the same woman jogging with her puppies spilling out of her vest top and nearly hitting her chin - it looks sooo painful.
Yeah, someone with their "puppies" that big, they definitely need an athletic bra. But I do wear a regular bra with jogging outfits (but I'm only a 34 C cup. So, I'm not big at all on top...LOL! No bouncy, bouncy here, much).0 -
Women who wear clear strap bras with halter tops or tube tops...
This is a big NO-NO! It's okay to wear if you're wearing something with thin straps. But not a halter top or tube top. It's just not right, really. With a halter top, if you want more coverage or a boost, just wear a bikini top underneath. With a tube top, just wear a bikini top or a strapless type bra underneath.0 -
First thing that comes to mind are strapless tops. I've never once seen anyone not have to repeatedly hike them back up. In more expensive formal wear, they're made to stay up, but in those more casual, stretchy type tops, even the thinnest of women look RIDICULOUS hiking them up all the time.
Another fashion trend that I never got onboard with...knee boots with capris. It looks stupid. In my opinion.
Socks or pantyhose with sandals.
Black tights with ANYTHING other than black shoes. At our college formal, my friend wore a red dress, black hose, and red pumps. EWWWWWW!0 -

Thanks for the Biker exception on the Leather Pants. When I reach goal, I intend to reward myself with a pair of leather pants and retire my chaps.
Not everyone can pull off the leather pants, but I have and extremely cute butt.0 -
Men ::: Speedo's -- Unless you are aged 20-30 and have the body of a god -- an Bhudda doesnt count!
Socks & sandals
Women::: Hate to see bra straps showing under vest tops etc (big pet hate of mine)
Bra's that are too small
Thongs showing at the top of jeans/trousers/skirts
Im sure i will think of more too!
Agree on the Speedos....few men can pull that off...I am just sayin. And thongs above the pants...TOTALLY AGREE, do we really need to know you have dental floss stuck in your butt crack? I think not!!!0 -
Pajamas out in public. Unless you are really sick and just need to run to the store for something quick. Otherwise please take the time to join the land of the living and put some clothes on!
People don't do this do they!!!??? God Bless America xx0 -
I own several pairs of crocs that are really cute - not the traditional open cloggy things....I am a huge croc fan! I'll go hide in shame now!0

1. Crocs
2. Socks, pantyhose, or anything under sandals ( They are meant to show your feet!)
3.) Bra straps showing with any shirt
4.) Tube tops
5.) high heel sneakers
6.) any knit pants that are so tight that I can see your entire anatomy.( I don't wanna know that much about you if you are willing to show it like that.)
7.) Chicks that don't wear a bra in public when they obviously need one. ( If they swing like pendulums when you walk, I'm talking about you!)
8.) Mankinis of any kind
9) any shirt that shows nipple. whether it hangs that low or is see through.
10.) Uggs. I live in Florida and see girls in them all the time. It's idiotic but for some reason the FSU and FAMU girls here seem to have a hard time realizing it.0 -
Wow must be a cultural thing as here in the UK wearing a racer tank with bra straps showing is..well its nothing really. Nobody bats an eyelid. What makes visible bra straps trashy?
I had itty bitty swimming costumes on people who aren't itty bitty.0 -
