If you're gonna cake on that much makeup, at least put on some decent clothes to match. Or if you're truly lazy and just feel like wearing sweats to class, don't try to make it look cute. Just don't.
There's a chicken/egg thing here. Blame VS for making clothes like this, or blame all the sloppy college girls for shopping at the same store?

Either way, I agree. It's basically become a "uniform" for college campuses, airports....anywhere, really. Sweats, yoga pants, etc....you're either trying to be put together or you're not, but these are NOT "put together".

Cheering you all on! No yoga pant haters? Let them go T F away, too. It's soo three years ago and even then they weren't cool. And Uggs? Gawd, that's almost what, like five or six years old now? Ughs.

And the funny thing that I'm seeing now with these girls as they get into their 30s - a couple kids, 15-20 lbs, and few grey hairs and wrinkles later, and they're still pretty much dressing the same way except they no longer have time for the makeup. And they're acting like martyrs and sighing how having kids leaves them with no time to take care of themselves, how they always put the kids first and after having them they lost their style and looks, etc. Um, no, you never HAD the style in the first place, you were just young and cute so you could pull it off better. Now suddenly that tank top and sweats are not so cute on a 30 something mom body as it was on an 18 year old one. Guess what, it doesn't take all that much time to put something on that actually looks decent and put-together - be it at 40 or 16.

This is Marlon Brando when he was young. He was beautiful, wasn't he?

I concur with hating the hipster look, especially on guys with the skinny jeans and the neck beards, oh and the stupid oversized glasses with no prescription - urrgh.

Also hate this particular look teenage/college girls like to sport, the "I just rolled out of bed, don't I look so cute and cool and comfy" presented as some sort of fashion statement - usually baggy sweats or pajama pants tucked into uggs, coupled with a messy bun and flawless, overdone makeup with smoky eyes or designer sunglasses, tons of bronzer and lip gloss with a smug duck lips expression. I think it started with the paparazzi 'celebs out running errands' photos in magazines, yuck, it bugs me so much
oh the funnel neck coats knock my hair out of place cant stand that... hahaha

I tried to buy her some clothes for Christmas and all pants, even "nice" pants, are skin tight. It's just not a good look for most people.

LOL Wife has issue with this. She wears jeans and used to wear Levi's 501s. Just plain, good old denim. These days one can't find ANYTHING denim for women WITHOUT stinking spandex!! What, do the jean manufacturers think EVERYONE wants to wear their jeans skintight? And no, she is way to young for "Mommy Jeans". It's like, you're either 20 years old or 70. She currently has to shop online at one place to purchase them. That is until THEY decide to switch over to spandex.

I don't really care for uneven hems either. I really feel like fashion is getting sloppier every day. Doesn't anybody dress up a little from time to time?

And the long, asymmeyrical tops look ridiculous when layered. I saw someone hawking her line of those things on one of the shopping channels, and the models had short, tailored blazers over them. Schmattas!. Lol!

D'oh! See, I should have known that. Thanks for not leaving me hanging. It would have kept me up at night. I thought it was Paul Newman until I saw his pictures. And yes, I could look at his face all day. Both, actually.

In the past year or two I've noticed that the trend has evolved from hipster to homeless looking.

In some areas it's actually quite fashionable now to never shave, cut your hair, use deodorant, bathe or shower. I was in a brewpub recently sitting near some guys who looked no different than guys you see sitting at intersections with change jars in their hands and they smelled just as bad. The only way you could tell they weren't homeless is because they all had the newest iPhone 6 plus & were ordering $8 stouts on draft.
