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!!

Fake tan

Kitten heels

Bum bags

Oh and Crocs. I'm with Villainelle on Crocs.

recklessruby · 27/07/2019 01:00

Agree with all of above, except heels, which I can do (although at 5' 8" don't need).

For me (oh where to start...)
Crocs
fake fur
white leggings
thongs
Anything seasonal/fun/fancy dress
Anything that isn't black/grey/blue
Anything with a pattern or a stripe
And long sock
Anything fitted.
Anything cropped.
A mask!

Do I have to limit it to 3????

RedHatsDoNotSuitMe · 27/07/2019 01:03

slippers

RedHatsDoNotSuitMe · 27/07/2019 01:03

a nighty

MosquitoInAJamJar · 27/07/2019 01:04

Anything beige (does not suit colouring)
Spaghetti-straps, really, anything with thin skinny straps as chest is pretty big and needs a good bra for support. These straps would have a job to do!
Animal print (DM usage more than makes up for my non-share)

RedHatsDoNotSuitMe · 27/07/2019 01:04

absolutely anything that might make people think I'm trying to follow a current fashion.

Snoopdogsbitch · 27/07/2019 01:05

Grandad style tops ( no collar, buttons) ugh!
Anything brown/ khaki/burgundy/beige. Drains me completely. Needs to be crisp white/ navy/ blue/ red/ coral.

Bodycon/ clinging lycra

Brazilian pants ( exposed arse cheeks and mum tum flaps over).

Polo necks especially wool ones ...I can feel the itch right now.
A tracksuit, I'd look ridiculous.
A body suit, what sadist invented those?!

IamtheOA · 27/07/2019 01:07

A bum grazing, is it a skirt or a belt article

Platform anything.
