Ugggh, hate mom jeans! I don't understand why people wear them. You could be 99 pounds or 300 pounds and you're still gonna look fat in them! They are so unflattering! People would look more slender in other things.

And what is with the multiple posts about rhinestone jeans? I haven't seen rhinestone jeans, even on a kid, since the late 90s. Where are people buying these? Is there some store I don't shop at promoting this? I am so confused by this. I didn't even like them when they were supposedly in style.

You know who I blame for this rhinestone thing?
