Aibu to ask what 3 things you would never ever wear (not necessarily together).
Mine are a bikini (too much like underwear in public and have wobbly cellulite)
High heels (i want to be able to walk when i m out not flouder around like a drunk ostrich)
And this horrible horrible hair colour i have accidentally dyed my hair (it was light brown fairish and is now freakishly white blonde).
Please distract me from crying about my hair horror until the shops open and i can sort it out!!

95% of fleece

Crocs

Stripper shoes

Boysey45 · 28/07/2019 21:19

I think I might be describing a halter neck top?. Its like a vest top but it fastens at the back of the neck in a knot or bow. These are dreadfull as well.

Anything with gusset poppers

Crocodile effect anything

An 'I Love My Baby Bump' t-shirt with an arrow

Linen trousers (especially white).

Any item of clothing with diamante on - like tops with diamante detailing on (yuk) a picture printed on it or something.

Cardigans.

Cryalot2 · 28/07/2019 21:57

Tracksuit
Belly top
Sandals or peep toe shoes with socks .
Burberry.

That said I am size 12/ 14 and have a fair bit of psoriasis on my non perfect body and am not young either, and do wear a bikini and shorts ( on holidays)

omione · 28/07/2019 21:59

Nightwear or nickers with cuddly animals or cartoon characters, i am not 6.
Fake tan or fake eyelashes
cheap shoes

Catsinthecupboard · 28/07/2019 22:08

Bikini
Tattoo
No tights
I can't wear a dress that isn't a sundress without tights. My legs look awful without them. Many women do! I don't understand when they were deemed unsightly, but bare legs in professional arenas make me cringe.

I was at court proceedings a couple months ago. I had to wait for my ride at the end of the day. The parade of bare legs with ankle and foot tattoos worn by professionals representing clients made me feel very old and out of step with society.

Regarding crocs; they are great gardening and the lined ones are good for rainy, cold dog walks.

*When hosiery was deemed wrong/unsightly.

Sundancer77 · 28/07/2019 22:15

Those flimsy floaty off the shoulder white peasant tops that were in fashion a good few years ago (model always looking dreamy in a summer meadow; Instagram fodder, if it had existed back then). I have big wide shoulders and would look stupid.

As a PP said- gladiator sandals (big long bony feet with hammer toes)

An England rugby jersey ;-)

lynfordthecrab · 28/07/2019 22:20

Crocs
Wide leg trousers (make me look like a frog)
Fake tan

Ugg boots. They just look like slippers!

MorrisZapp · 28/07/2019 22:39

Those tight round neck cardigans beloved of Nigella Lawson. She looks buxom and wholesome in hers, I look fucking farcical.

Those harem pants that look like pyjamas.

Dowser · 28/07/2019 22:40

Beige
Anything with a ‘name’ on it
Anything from cos, toast or poetry

NoTheresa · 28/07/2019 22:41

Deffo a bikini.
Leopard print
Shoes I can't walk in.

PickAChew · 28/07/2019 22:53

I do wear crocs around the house as they're so supportive. Occasionally wander across to the shop in them. They are terrible for gardening, though, as DS1 found, once, when he stood on a nail and it went right through his foot. They offer no puncture resistance at all.

Booyahkasha · 28/07/2019 23:15

Oh my God never say never, some cold shoulders, animal prints, leggings and bodycons are lovely! Keep an open mind peeps! We're not dead yet!

Booyahkasha · 28/07/2019 23:17

And if you don't wear a fleece how do you keep warm doing outdoors stuff?! Really weird thread.

hamptonmummy · 28/07/2019 23:28

Crocs, cold shoulder tops, flip flops !

Wavyheaded · 28/07/2019 23:55

Animal prints

Fluffy pool slides (vomit)

Pool slides with socks! (double vomit). I don't understand this "prison chic" at all.

Louis Vuitton or Michael Kors
