Fashion Trends I Wish Never Happened

October 29, 2009 by Mikelah 1 Comment

Fashion fades, style is eternal.

– Coco Chanel

Trends are not for everybody. When it comes to personal my personal style I wear what looks good on my body type, but there are just some trends that I don’t understand, nor will I ever try:

1.) Leggings with Holes – I’m not really sure what’s going on with these. They look like stockings with permanent runs. It reminds me of an old Caribbean saying “Ya socks begging bread” as in only bum’s beg bread and you look like a bum! I have yet to see anyone where them with style.

2.) Sneaker Heels – What’s with that! Sneakers are meant to be sneakers. Fly, comfortable kicks. This is just all wrong in so many ways!

3.) Shutter Shades – Commonly associated with Kanye West. Note to people who wear them “You’re not Kanye!” We know you can’t see through them so why do you have them on in the club, walking down the street and in the coffee shop (Yes. I’ve seen them everywhere!).
