Impulse body spray..stinks

Anyone else?

I definitely want a tattoo, and this thread is making me want one even more.

rightknockered · 08/04/2016 14:59

Quite liking the sound of WWKHW school run outfit Grin

Claraoswald36 · 08/04/2016 15:02

Boak at uneven nails.

MilleniumTalcum · 08/04/2016 16:15

Remus Go for it!

I still find the 'they're so ugly' line of argument funny. They're for me, not others, and I love them. Still not regretting them either. Join the dark side Grin

And unbeknownst to me I wear all sorts of "hispter" clothes it seems. Ah well Cake

MitzyLeFrouf · 08/04/2016 16:18

I'd like to put skull tattoos on my Room 101. Every dimwit on Tattoo Fixers asks for a skull!

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 08/04/2016 16:22

MT - the only thing that's putting me off is the idea of it hurting. I'm a bit of a coward!

Claraoswald36 · 08/04/2016 16:22

I have a big tattoo Grin

MilleniumTalcum · 08/04/2016 16:37

It's nowhere near as painful as a piercing. If you've given birth you'll definitely be fine. It stings but it doesn't outright hurt (I find anyway) unless it's the end of an long session Smile and I'm a wuss Grin

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 08/04/2016 16:42

Thank you - I only want a tiny one. Need to pluck up the courage!

dragonsarebest · 08/04/2016 16:52

Do it Remus. It really doesn't hurt that much. Get a skull like Mitzy suggested, a tiny skull like these. Some of those are really nice actually...

Kevintheminion · 08/04/2016 17:06

Those stupid tartan picnic blanket ponchos which seem all the rage at the moment (why?!)

FrameyMcFrame · 08/04/2016 18:00

Breton tops
Brightly coloured macs a la Boden
those shoes that look like childrens buckly up mayr janes in bright colours
tea dresses

Dowser · 08/04/2016 18:36

Flossie's
Uggs
Black brows
Ridiculous length nails
Those funny combed over fringe things
Obviously fake extensions
Hair extensions
Fake tits unless you have really obviously one bigger than other or you need reconstructive surgery after mastectomy

Fillers anywhere In face
Puff ball skirts
Orange tan
Kaftans
Onesies
Ponchos
Daft hats...those woolly ones lads were wearing a few years ago

Ear lobe extenders....make me feel sick
Too much eye make
Thin leggings you could spit peas through
Lads who wear jeans below underpants showing bum crack
Trainers unless worn for sport
Ballet pumps..bad for feet
Birkenstock fugly sandals

And breathe ;-)

PonderingProsecco · 08/04/2016 19:40

I misread this and saw title as sins of the past...
I give you Ra Ra skirts and pedal pushers....
I am of a certain age Grin.

Gingermum · 08/04/2016 19:45

Remus "Teenagers with big black eyebrows."

Grin Grin

Too right - makes them look like transvestites.

Culottes - suit NOBODY

Drop waisted dresses - hey why not just wear a sack? Particularly those terrible early eighties ones with horrible Peter Pan colours as worn by the then Lady Di. Even she couldn't carry them off.

I don't know what kinds of jeans these are but you see them a lot in the USA - high waisted with a short leg. So the wearer has the double fash whammy of a giant arse and short legs. What's not to love?

Lipliner in a darker colour than lipstick. Horrible.

Mother of the bride dresses, usually to be found in Debenhams. Varients on salmon pink shift dresses which make the wearer look like a lump of puce concrete.

Bow tie in a 'wacky' colour worn with tucked in shirt. Which made my overweight husband resemble a dodgy 80s comic crossed with Desperate Dan. Not a good look.

randomer · 08/04/2016 19:52

ooh used to love a dropped waist

bolleauxnouveau · 08/04/2016 19:52

prosecco I remember those days. I wore mine with a high necked yoked blouse.
So stylish! Which reminds me, sailor collars on grown women, definitely room 101.

AmberNectarine · 08/04/2016 19:53

Things I wear on this thread:

Tattoos - 5 of 'em
Adidas
Bodycon dresses
Crop tops
Bomber jacket

EmpressTomatoKetchup · 08/04/2016 19:58

Those slim soled converse, for the ladeez who like the look of converse but don't like the chunckyness of the sole. Tshhhh. Just no.

she says, wearing culottes AND crocs

Shirkingfromhome · 08/04/2016 20:05

This hemline.

Gwenhwyfar · 08/04/2016 20:56

"I'm still going to say I hate, hate, hate, nude lipstick. Yuck, browny-beigey lips. What is is with having no colour on your face that people think is so attractive?"

It just emphasises your lips without giving them a strange artificial colour.

Maybe you can explain the logic of a dress over trousers?

Dowser · 08/04/2016 21:09

Oo ooh! Got another one.

Women in suits with shirts and ties/ or something fussy at the neck.

I seem to think it was a look favoured by our cilla.

Just horrible.

Foxyspook · 09/04/2016 00:04

Horrible soft leather floppy shoes - like baby shoes - I don't know the technical term for them - ugly doll/clown shoes - clumpy but soft

Dungarees

2 plaits on women old enough to be grandmothers

Tate15 · 09/04/2016 00:11

The mock shirt jumper! You know, those perfectly nice jumpers ruined by a pretend shirt collar sewn to the neckline and sometimes cuffs to the sleeves! They make me shudder!
