Just Say NO to These Summer Trends...

I do love fashion and I do love how people can express themselves through various trends and styles.  However, that being said, there are a few trends out there and I think we should say goodbye too!

1. Overalls - really?  Don't get me wrong, I'm all for a good, fashionable jumper or romper, but jean "coveralls?"  I do love that trends tend to come back around, revamped, but these?  Why or how these even came back in style is a question that I don't know I'll ever be able to answer, but the trends from the 90's should really stay there!

2. Chunky, boxy shoes.  Do I even need to explain why this one needs to leave as quickly as it came back?  The Birkenstocks and Doc Martins were definitely "in" back in the day, but the key word in that sentence is "were" as in past tense.  Yes, I'm totally guilty of rocking these bad boys back in the day, but no thank you now!  Please, I don't know that I can handle looking at these boats on people's feet for another minute!

3. Nails - okay ladies, getting manicures and having fun with gels and polish is great, but those weird bell-bottom looking nails or the dracula-style, as I call them, ultra pointy tips are just plain odd!  Especially if you are trying to do anything in the pageant or modeling worlds, natural and well-kept nails are the way to go!

4. Oversized Flower Power - okay, really?  When did this happen?  I do love me a good fascinator or floppy hat to go with my cute summer dress, but these insanely large flower crowns are just a little much.  I guess if you go to garden parties all the time then they may work, but really, when was the last garden party you attended? 

5. Jean Underwear - yep, that's what I'm calling them.  You know what I'm taking about.  Those really short short jean shorts where the inner lining of the pockets stick out because they are just too short.  I don't know about you, but I'd rather not walk around looking like I'm wearing a denim diaper!  Yikes!  Add a little class to your wardrobe and please go for a longer length.

I try to keep my posts positive and trendy, but I just had to speak my peace on these few items!  Thanks for reading...happy trending! :)
