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!!

Those fluffy slider shoe things!! They’re everywhere!! They look bloody awful, I don’t get it!! Especially with socks, what the fuck is that about??

Leggings in a non-exercise setting

Clear perspex shoes/sandals. Especially the shoes... the way they steam up when your feet get sweaty Envy (not envy)

Leather or fake leather coat
Sheepskin or fur trim coat

Crocs
Fleece with a scenic animal theme

Anything from Boohoo or Pretty Little Thing.

animaginativeusername · 29/07/2019 06:51

I do like the Zara dress, also I wear dresses loose fit, most of which are printed and a few with lime colours, love boden dresses - all are worn with slim leg ankle grazer trousers.

WhatMeghanWants · 29/07/2019 07:31

Harem trousers
Crocs
Dungarees

MeadowHay · 29/07/2019 08:14

Sheer blouses without a vest or crop top underneath.
Anything low cut.
Stiletto heels.

That's just the first three that came into my head. The top two because I don't like to have my bra/boobs on show that much (related to my religious/cultural heritage) and the heels cos I would never be able to walk in them. But tbh there are many other things I'd never wear too. I would also wear many of the things listed on here! Haha.

Jojofjo44 · 29/07/2019 09:49

Double Denim
Crocs
High Heels- love them but teeter like a baby deer trying to walk

spikyplants · 29/07/2019 10:14

Sliders, especially emblazoned with sportswear brand name, etc. Or furry. Yuck. Usually teamed with long toenails for some reason. Boke!
Anything beige or that weird dull medical garment pink - I'd look like a corpse with my colouring
Cork wedge shoes or sandals
Skinny jeans - I've never got on with denim and I'm far too short and big of arse for such things Grin
YY to weird cutouts on tops, dresses, etc.
Blingy slogan t-shirts

I don't mind a bit of animal print and chunky flatform footwear but probably past reliving my misspent 90s at 43 Grin

Paddy1234 · 29/07/2019 10:21

Cold shoulder tops
Crocs
Gladiator sandals

PetraRabbit · 29/07/2019 10:31

Clear plastic bra straps- the hideous type that are supposed to look invisible but just look cheap.
Wide leg jeans or the wider type of straight leg jeans- not a fan of the look in general but really unflattering on shorter or wider legs.
Dresses with cross over/wrap over top sections- even if I try on a dress 3 sizes too big my boobs still fall out. I especially hate these as they look effortlessly good on small chested women but are ruined with a vest top underneath as I'd need.
And if I can have a 4th, long tight skirts with a split up the back in the middle...exactly in the one place where there's a danger of showing your most private parts. Ruins what could be a nice item.

WatchingTheWheels85 · 29/07/2019 10:35

Cold shoulder tops
Breton stripe top
Yellow or red rain coat

Anything from Michael Kors

Nude heels

Fake nails

drspouse · 29/07/2019 10:54

Dungarees/dungaree dresses (large of boob).
Any cold anything (jeans, jumpers, tops, knees, shoulders, elbows - all pointless)
And ultra high heels (up to about an inch is fine).

pollymere · 29/07/2019 11:02

Lol. I read OP post whilst wearing a bikini complete with scars, wobbly tummy and cellulite. My naturally white blonde hair wrapped in a towel. Was feeling a bit down but this cheered me up.

I look terrible in a swimsuit so buy expensive bikinis to look fab. Beach ready is a state of mind. Can't do much about the hair either. 😂

I'm not a fan of hot pants with contrasting tights, or pencil skirts.

ElevenOhFive · 29/07/2019 11:08

Ugg boots
Irregular Choice shoes
A Kipling bag

Fur/animal skin or fabric printed with animal skin.

Shoes/slippers with no backs.

Teacher22 · 29/07/2019 12:16

Fleece
Orthopaedic type shoes
Blouson anything

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 29/07/2019 12:22

Harem pants
Louboutin Shoes - instant way to cheapen an outfit. (Also those monogrammed Chanel & LV handbags)
Fascinators (although I am a 'hat person')
Lime green is the one colour I can't wear. Most unforgiving shade on the entire spectrum. It makes me look like the return of the living dead.

Monsterinmypocket · 29/07/2019 12:46

Anything with a blatant designer logo on

Ugg boots

A mankini/thong
