fashion cliche

What fashion do you consider to be totally ubiquitous and cliched? Not necessarily things that look bad but basicly unoriginal.
I've noticed that about 80% of girls round here have leather/ fake leather bomber style jackets.

ummmm i'm getting a bit sick of skinny jeans and ballet flats. but for some people, it's just a staple, and i totally get how that works. it just seems like the "go-to" casual-cute look, and i'm pretty much over it.

Ugg/-style boots. The ripoff ones look awful (the soles always slide sideways when people walk) and even the real things look gross when work with tracksuit bottoms tucked in.
I can't wait for that trend to be over.
I also really don't like slogan t-shirts. I used to when I was 15 and thought having a shirt with SMOKE CRACK on it was subversive, but now... no. I'm so sick of seeing ugly cunts in shirts saying "I'm bringing sexy back". Nooo dear, you're making sexy run away. Fast.

I saw a lot of really dirty slogan t-shirts when I was in Trinidad and Tobago. They're sometimes amusing, but most of the time I'm just like wondering what the fuck was going though that person's head when they bought the shirt, and when they actually decided to wear it.

I'm sick of girls wearing all those identical scarves around their necks.

speaking of slogan tshirts, I saw a new one down at the local skatepark the other day, massive letters: USE A CONDOM

Everyone seems to be wearing some combo of skinny jeans, jacket, scarf, boots or ballet flats. Kind of including myself in that too, it's just getting to that boringly obvious stage- must find amazing dresses soon!

I do this too and want to kick myself every time I walk into uni and EVERYONE is wearing the same

Summers coming, summer is more of a creative season, it will provide respite from this sameness

Yeah I live right beside a Uni so you can imagine the fashion parade I see each day! I think it's a really pretty and quite a good look really, just realised that everyone else feels the same
On a completely off topic note, I think people are generally dressing differently these days. 8-10 years ago (when I was in my mid teens)people were very into dressing for their tribe, punk, goth, trendy etc. It's seems to have evened out. It was never my style but I fucking miss seeing guys in capes with white make up and girls with multi coloured mohawks.
Everyone's very preppy now, I blame the emos...

The Yasser Arafat style keffiyahs? Hah yes... i'm bored of seeing that too.

People keep staring at me here. My friend said it's maybe because not many girls have lots of piercings here, or tattoos on show. I think it might have been my ridiculously colourful clothing combo (alliteration!). Most girls I see here seem to be doing the big sunglasses/vest top/jeans/flats thing. Not a lot of colour-junkies.

Yeah, pretty much the same as has been mentioned. Skinny jeans or leggings with ballet flats has pretty much played itself out and is way too common. I think it looks fine on most people, though. It's a fairly inoffensive style that has that staying power b/c it's not overly trendy and can pretty much keep being updated with whatever new trendy stuff is around.


Hellish with Rellish, on a total off topic note, that "gino oh gino ginelli" user status of yours has been driving me mad for weeks b/c I get the tune in my head and wonder where the hell it was from. Just got round to finding out, haha. That takes me back.

Those shitty fringes that black-dyed indie-chicks have that look like they were done with a setsquare. It looks fucking awful and they just don't understand.

I like my slogan T-shirt

The problem is, any slogan is only funny once. The trick is to find a slogan that is actually cool and meaningful, rather than one that is equally retarded on everyone ("TONIGHT I AM SINGLE" omg just leik every otha nite then fag bololol) or which relies on shock value ("If I Said I Had Given You AIDS, Would You Hold It Against Me?" or whatever).

Anyway, most of my clothes come from Goodwill or Salvation Army or those big donation bins intended for recovering addicts next to 7-11s. So with the rags I wear, it would be difficult to be 'trendy' even if I tried.

In the clouded judgement of my adolescence I did wear a 'construction-vest orange' oversized tee with a pregnant Lucy under the caption, "Damn you Charlie Brown". I think I thought that was really cheeky at the time

On the topic at hand, I would say I most despise the tights with the denim skirt and the shuffling along in the flats with a Lululemon bag in one hand and a triple Venti nonfat half-caff soy latte with 1 pump mocha, 1 pump caramel and 1 pump peppermint, foam, non-fat whip, steamed milk at 185 degrees, 2 packets of Splenda (shaken, not stirred), 3 drops of half & half and an extra protective sleeve in the other.

the kids that walk around with shirts that have obamas face on it all like: BROZ BE4 HOEZ!!!1


especially since half the people who are sporting these shirts, don't know anything about the upcoming presidential election yet are forming opinions and then plastering it on their tits. fabulous.

im also sick of those shirts that show two girls holding hands, two guys holding hands, and then a girl and a guy holding hands."it's just love". well, yeah it is. but not only does that go without saying, you don't need to walk around with it on your shirt..

i feel like its cool to have your own opinions but when you wear them on your shirt im bothered. especially when 25780820 other myspace kids all have the same opinion and all have the same shirt.

i'm fucking sick of rayban wayfarers. this may only be because i wanted a pair, and then about two weeks later everyone got them, and while i thought they were rad i didn't like the people wwearing them.

but now i have some
and it's sometimes fun to be cliche fuckoff obnoxious/lame.

What does it unintentionally say about gay people who are just dating fucking who are not to the stage of love yet ? This shirt leaves them on the wayside...

The scarf shit's annoying now too, though this is more like a pet peeve than anything.
