Pants or shorts that say something across the butt, which for some reason seems to be insulting to the person wearing them, such as "Italian B*tch." Also, little girls wearing the same thing. Are we supposed to be reading little girls' butts? Do they really want us to think they are "juicy"?

That reminds me of another one: The modern (and inappropriate) clothing for kids, especially girls. Five-year-olds shouldn't be wearing what a sixteen year old would. If you complain if your teenage daughter wears it, why would you want your kindergärtner/first-grader wearing the same thing?!

1. Blonde hair with really dark eyebrows
2. Red lipstick when you have yellow teeth
3. Women wearing booty shorts combined with belly shirts to an Elementary school. It's just so inappropriate.

As an older woman, I hate it when people try to dictate fashion. For example, on those fashion makeover shows, they always insist upon a few dresses or skirts, some flowery stuff, and upon some cleaveage, none of which I will wear.

I recently lost quite a bit of weight, and because I needed to refamiliarize myself with "skinnier" clothes (I am no where near skinny!). I watched the shows to get ideas, but for good night, we are not all the same! I appreciate what I learned, though.

My style is personal, my color selections may not be yours, but that's what makes the world interesting -- variety!

Another thing that aggravates me is that there is very little definitive information for older women regarding applying makeup properly for wrinkles, thinning skin, and persistent dark circles under the eyes. And worst of all, for lipstick on older skin -- it easily feathers! YUCK!

Oh! And that latest trend for thick eyebrows? Hideous! I recently had a facial and makeup done, and she put huge, thick brows on me! It looked really silly. My husband was kind -- he said nothing.

The shoes cost a little more than if you could find them in a store.........but at least you can find them.

If you pick the wrong size, or don't like them, you print out a shipping label and send them back for free.........really easy.

I always get my order in about TWO DAYS........don't know how they do that.

I always read all of the reviews before I try a shoe..........you get helpful info, like if they run large or small, etc,

They run pretty good sales once in awhile too.
I have heard of Zappos on TV, but have not tried them yet.

This reminds me of the "chola" look. Girls shave their eyebrows completely and then re-draw them on with eyeliner (although it sometimes looks like they used a Sharpie).

There was a gal that I went to HS with in the 70s, she did that, her mom also, mom worked in the office at school. They both did that, never could figure out why, they were both knock-down gorgeous, except for the clown eyebrows.

My friend's sister did that for a couple of years. Then one night she went to a club that was really small and packed with people, and she sweat, the sweat caused her 'eyebrows' to wash off. Thereafter she let them grow back and quit drawing them on.
