- I cant stand those little shorts with "juicy" or "sexy" on the butt - I still see them - really horrible when you see them on little girls - I guess their parents are morons.
- When youngish people wear short sleeves and shorts and its 22 degrees outside. Whats up with that?
- pleated pants on anyone - always unflattering
- grown women in ponytails who are not going to the gym (hey - your not 20 anymore and need some softness around the face)

Hey now!

I see nothing wrong with long pants and sandals. Guilty!

I also see nothing wrong with pony tails on adult women. I will never understand the whole..."give up a certain fashion once you reach a certain age."

If it looks good, rock it! I think a ponytail would look much better on an older woman than lose thinning hair.

The one fashion trend I cannot stand....skinny jeans! YUCK! Those things are hideous and not flattering at all.

Way to many people wear flip flops way to many places Sure they are great for the beach popping around home etc. but I had to do jury duty this summer and almost every woman had on flip flops and every single time they had to approach the judge you could hear loudly "swish swish swish" I found it annoying and just stupid

It must be some kind of trend though, the girls wearing them are clearly in the wannabe-fashionista crowd.
Oh. My. Goodness. Are the eighties coming back? (shudders)

It's called acting one's age. eg as women get older, generally their hair shold get shorter. Really long hair on old women simply looks ridiculous.

Well I am sick of all the snarky crap being a trend...So I will talk about what I do like:

- ciggarette leg pants/jeans (version of skinny thats not tapered)
- ultra low riders
- long torso cut tops for layers
- red hair colors of all shades (on trend)
- spring look of natural make-up with a lovely release of colors to wear
- bags are getting smaller again
- double duty type products for HBA (like moisturizer/tint/sunscreen all in one)
- skin shades getting less orange and more natural
- hair styles becoming more natural and ready to wear
