What trends would you like to see die a death in 2018?

For me:

Frills on tops
Big, stupid sleeves

'Dipped hem' tops. I think that's what they're called? Where the back of the top is longer than the front. I don't think they look good on anyone, but especially if you have a curvy bum. I look and feel like I'm wearing a nappy!

Make up contouring.

I do hope those flappy sleeves with all the frills go quickly; they did last time around. I got really tired of watching women drag their sleeves through the crab dip at Christmas parties.

I am afraid I am clearly style anathema to you all!

Skinnies
Leather leggings
Ankle grazers
Trainers
Brogues
Crew necks

Are what I live in! I shall defend them to the death, or else I shall have to go to work in my gym gear or pyjamas which probably wouldn't be so bad

I love a puff/balloon sleeve... it makes your waist look tiny!

BitOutOfPractice · 16/01/2018 07:21

I’ve got no problem with a puff sleeve. It’s all the ruching, flappiness and trailing tie things at the wrist that get my goat

BlueEyedWonder · 16/01/2018 07:30

Cold shoulder tops
Cropped tops
Athleisure wear
Embroidered clothing
Slogan tops
Man made fibres

Firenight · 16/01/2018 07:34

Those silly eyebrows. I don’t see them very often where I live and work but occasionally travel outside of my bubble and have to try not to stare!

Sheeeesh · 16/01/2018 09:09

Loads of what's listed isn't my cup of tea but I enjoy others looking like they're enjoying their style even if its a million miles from mine.

Hmm at least you could make it easy to read

DPotter · 16/01/2018 11:57

Frills - especially on sleeves
big thick eyebrows - oh how they will laugh in 10 yrs time
orange makeup / sunbed overuse - hadn't seen it for a while but maybe making a comeback, at least where I live

Ven83 · 16/01/2018 13:32

Crop and ankle length trousers

allglitteredout · 16/01/2018 13:36

Mirror selfies & duck pouts

cod · 16/01/2018 14:03

tunics and leggings

I KEEP HOPING

cod · 16/01/2018 14:04

love a pointy nail - tres sexy. Men love em.
Squared off nails are so mumsy

yosoyapplecider · 16/01/2018 14:16

Absolutely love my skinny jeans and leggings, to be fair I have very shapely legs and a big bottom so looser jeans make me look fat.
why is everyone against cold shoulder tops?
I don't have any myself however I thought they were very popular as I see them in every shop and loads of people wearing them.

IWannaSeeHowItEnds · 16/01/2018 14:25

Sorry Cod, but they are not sexy, unless you have a nosferatu fetish Wink

RoseWhiteTips · 16/01/2018 14:36

Sadly the tunic and leggings look is set to continue forever.

RoseWhiteTips · 16/01/2018 14:41

*Hilarious sluggy eyebrows..

*The mix of dirty face shaping and eerie, satin highlighter glow.

*One fake nail done in a different colour to the other fake nails.

*Straightened hair. Never looks genuine.

Niminy · 16/01/2018 15:07

Nosferatu fetish Grin

phoenix1973 · 16/01/2018 15:10

Capri pants with fluted hems. Comic! 🤣🤣🤣
Ruffles on coat sleeves. They just tag a coat to last season. I wouldn't mind if costs were cheap!
Giant slug eyebrows. 🤡

phoenix1973 · 16/01/2018 15:11

I forgot Man buns.
My DD and I snigger when we see one.

Eolian · 16/01/2018 15:12

Contouring, slug-like eyebrows, gel nails. They all just look really, really ridiculous.

StilettosAreANoNo · 16/01/2018 15:22

Women (slebs mainly) standing in pigeon toed positions as if they’re 4. And sitting with legs all akimbo.

hipsrose · 16/01/2018 15:32

People not just using highlighter across their cheekbones, but practically bathing in the stuff (using it as a 'primer')! So many girls I see around just look glittery!!
