Impulse body spray..stinks

Anyone else?

Iris Apfel has great hair.Not so keen on Grace Coddington.Personally I prefer red lipstick, but different tones of red look better with particular skin tones imo.
In my day people wore orange or fuchsia lippy and that was not forgiving.

Azeno234 · 10/04/2016 13:43

Wow all of these things being banned are exactly what my teens like to wear. Lol

snowymountaintops · 10/04/2016 14:17

I'm 50 and wear skinny jeans, no pointy nails or tattoos though!

Mogepencil · 10/04/2016 14:17

You know those shiny bras? Yeah.
Messy buns.
Cardigans with only the top button done up.
Septum piercing
Makeup that's overly done
Adding on to the last on, ANY TYPE OF CONTOURING JESUS CHRIST
Old women in red lipstick
Old women with dyed blonde hair
Middle aged woman with gradual haircuts (usually dyed blonde with a brunette part under the layers at the back)

nanetterose · 10/04/2016 14:29

"old women" Moge care to elaborate?

Mogepencil · 10/04/2016 14:40

Like the 60-70 range.

nanetterose · 10/04/2016 15:01

You have to be on the wind up!

Floisme · 10/04/2016 18:32

I'm sure she is. Only very stupid people think all old women look the same.

MamaLazarou · 10/04/2016 18:41

Shiny bras?

MrsUnderwood · 10/04/2016 19:42

Big metal visible zips on blouses and dresses.
Synthetic fibres- especially for nightwear.
Bench and Superdry
Cut-outs
Scuba material on skirts
Neon colours
Aztec prints
Over-embellished handbags
Adult style clothing on babies- I once found a houndstooth peplum dress in Tesco age 0-3 months. It was like something a grown woman would wear to the office.
White Lycra shorts on men. Dude, I can see your Charlie Browns.
PVC dresses
Cheap crushed velvet skirts or dresses
Cheap lace
Visible bra straps
Clothing with 'hilarious' slogans on.
Anything featuring a fucking Minion, especially if it's supposed to be aimed at adults. Primark I am looking at you.

Loads of things I like are on other people's hate lists: tattoos, pink hair, leopard print, nail art, skinny jeans...

MamaLazarou · 10/04/2016 20:06

Women's nightdresses/pyjamas with cartoon characters or slogans on the front. It's actually quite difficult to find short nightdresses that don't have Mickey Mouse or Winnie-the-Pooh on them in some shops. For grown women!

MrsGuyOfGisbo · 10/04/2016 20:19

Nightdresses - do they really still exist? Surely all tangley?
Why wear anything in bed???
And pyjamas - ugh - always assume they must be smelly...

AmberNectarine · 10/04/2016 20:36

I have Disney princess PJs. My 4yo DD loves that we match.

I have to wear pyjamas - wearing nothing in bed makes me feel oddly vulnerable (NO idea why, have always felt that way - PJs will hardly protect me from a knife attack).

nickdrakeslovechild · 10/04/2016 20:58

I think the only thing that makes me cringe are pointy nails and the over done brows. I love individuality

JackandDiane · 10/04/2016 20:58

whats wrong with nails? Women have had long nails for years

Titsalinabumsquash · 10/04/2016 21:12

I had to get out the beauty therapy game when HD eyebrows became a thing.

Flesh tunnels are gross, I know a couple who have them and one of the dirty buggers sticks her tongue through the others hole while they're canoodling.

Gwenhwyfar · 10/04/2016 21:28

"Why wear anything in bed???"

To keep you war,?
Because it's easier to wash your clothes than wash the bed sheets?

Gwenhwyfar · 10/04/2016 21:33

*warm

Kennington · 10/04/2016 21:39

Healed shoes that cause waddling - they look so nice when stood still then induce a painful gait later that ruins the look!
Big flowery patterns.
Floppy boot cut trousers that get wet around the ankles when it rains.

MamaLazarou · 10/04/2016 21:42

Why wear anything in bed?

Why wear nothing in bed? Personal preference?

Strange to have an opinion on what other people wear in their own beds.

nickdrakeslovechild · 10/04/2016 21:52

JackandDiane long nails are not the problem, long pointy nails are vile.

What is a flesh tunnel Confused

Tanaqui · 10/04/2016 22:16

Lol I love bright macs, cheers up the rain! And sleeveless tops and comfy shoes.

I hate peplums, pussy bow blouses, dresses with the waist too high, shiny fabric, and shoes that show toe cleavage.

ImBrian · 11/04/2016 07:28

I'm guilty of so many things on here!
