I must admit, I'm guilty of this. One of my friends got married last year and I went to the wedding hoseless. But in my defense, it was an outdoor wedding on a 100 degree day and I was wearing open toed shoes. :)

okay..i think these are more personal fashion pet peeves, rather than dresscodes but..

socks with sandals
people wearing their socks up to their knees(hello, it's not 1972)
people that wear their socks up to their knees, and then wear shorts that are really baggy so they hit below the knee..(whats the point, put pants on..you look ridiculous)
people who go to school dressed like they are going to a club
people that don't dress for the weather..(shorts/tshirts in a snow storm etc..)
true story...my junior year of college abnormal psych class there was a "shemale" in my class..seriously, a guy living his life as a woman..anyway..well it didn't bother me that this was the way he chose to live his life, whatever, who am i to say how someone should lead their life right?..what drove me freaking crazy thought is that one day it was snowing, and he came to class in capri pants and a belly shirt..cmon now..is that really necessary??

You know they have finally made hose just for open toed shoes :) Gee, that lady made great money with that :)

That's what my sister wore to the party!!! LOL!

Those drive me crazy too! Another one that bugs me is when girls go to basketball games dressed like they're going to the club. I know the guys on our team are hot, but they're not going to be paying attention to you no matter how you're dressed. If you want to get a date, go to the bars and give your seat to a real basketball fan!

There's nothing wrong with wearing hose with open-toed shoes (especially in a Canadian climate), as long as you have sandel foot or shadow toe hose - heck, that's why they make them. :) Also I like to wear nude or beige coloured panty hose during the winter months because between november and april I am so pale and it keeps my legs and toes warm during those slightly below zero days ;).

On another note: dark hose and light coloured shoes - don't do that. I saw a girl earlier this year with balck pantyhose and silver strappy sandels on...:eek:

What is Wrong With Greeks Wearing Nice Dress on Campus?

You can then wear your Badges or Pins!

Granted I was going to School when Christ was a Corpral, but Jeans, Jean Shorts, Sweat Shirts with Beer Logo or any other Kind of Logo on it? Are You getting Paid to ADVertize for them!

Hell NO!

When You get into the Real World you had better know how to dress or keep looking for a low paying job!

Gramted i was In the Busness Dept and the No neck jock straps came in in blue jeans, the Profs look rather askewance!

If You Do Not Advertise Your Self to be better than the others, then why be in a group of special people!

If you want to be in a group to party and drink only, get put or be thrown out!

The hardest thing I went through as the Founder of My Local was to wee # 3 expulled from the Fraternity!

In Case you dont know what that is . It is Being a NoN entity as far as the Fraternity is concerned! You do not exist!

Of of the Box Into Kitchen!


Shrimp, Lobster and maybe crabby legs!:D

TTFN!;)

My chapter's only rules were no hose no entrance. Oh, and khakis were semi-frowned upon only because it was too casual...unless the shoes and shirt were dressier.

I wear pantyhose with all of my opened-toed shoes. I suppose it's because of chapter meetings and in the late summer/early fall it was so hot you didn't want to wear closed-toed heels (not to mention my legs are short and look funny in closed toed heels).

Anyway, I think the worst thing I EVER saw was a women who came to apply at the jewelry store was wearing a shorts outfit with pantyhose and TENNIS SHOES. Then to top it off, she had fixed her pantyhose run with PURPLE NAIL POLISH! EW!:rolleyes: :eek: :confused:

What a nightmare!

Hootie

I am so glad you all feel this way about wearing white/open-toe shoes/hose etc. My boyfriend thinks I'm crazy because I refuse to wear white, even a white blouse, between Labor Day and Easter.

I hate hose, too, they pinch and run and make my feet sweat (eurgh, betcha all wanted to know that) but if you go to school in a cold climate and have to wear a skirt for whatever reason, there aren't a lot of options. I generally prefer black to nude especially in winter, but nude doesn't bother me so much ('cause I have nice legs, thank you Grandma!). And I'd never wear hose with open-toe shoes. For any reason. Ever.

My sisters sometimes laughed at me in college (I went to a fairly laid-back university), because I wouldn't go out with a purse that didn't coordinate with my shoes.

I have two major complaints about lingerie. 1) If you're not wearing jeans or other heavyweight or patterned fabric on the bottom, GET YOURSELF A THONG!! Panty lines are the WORST! and 2) Quadraboob is not pretty. Put on your bra, then put on a tight t-shirt, then count your boobs in the mirror. If it's more than two, get thee to Victoria's Secret, you need a bigger cup size. It doesn't matter how great the rest of your clothes are if your bra doesn't fit properly. Also, the only color bra you should ever wear with a light-colored shirt is NUDE, not WHITE. White bras blend into your shirt, skin-tone bras blend into you.

Climbing down from the fashion soapbox now.

Yeah, but wearing "pin attire" to class is a lot different than getting all hoochied up to go to class (which a number of girls at my school do).

Oh yeah, and go easy on the perfume, people. My allergies and I will thank you. :)

I am totally anal about the no white before Easter/after Labor Day, and some of the people in my office get very dirty looks from me because of it (this goes for ivory, too). But no nude hose???!? I have an emerald green suit. What else would I wear with that? Black would look stupid. And cream hose? Gross. Let's face it if you cannot find a skin-colored hose shade to suit you out of the zillions that are on the market, I don't know how you got into college!!

You can wear sandalfoot hose w/ slight open toes (duh, that's why they are called sandalfoot!) but if the shoes are pretty much 2 straps the width of spaghetti, it will look silly. If you are going hoseless, make sure your legs are shaved & exfoliated!!

Plus if I ran my own personal hell, everyone wearing a spaghetti strap top with bra straps sticking out would be in it. Without a fan. Or beer. TACKY TACKY TACKY!!!

Oh my goodness - thanks for the laugh! Quadraboob, heehee. :D

Here's another fashion-don't-you-DARE:

Lacy bras with tight T-shirts. Man do I hate that. And for some reason it's always the girls who are a little, ahem, "top-heavy" in these teeny little shirts painted on their bodies, with their "assets" sticking out all lumpy because of the lace.

Hello! Are you enjoying your seven years of bad luck, because your mirror MUST be broken!

or, maybe, worst of all, Quadraboob in a lace bra. Please, people, seek help immediately. You're only one step away from walking around in a black bra and a white tank top.

Geez, it's not that hard to find a smooth bra if you really have to impose your tight shirt on the rest of us.

There is a girl in some of my classes who lives in a insane little world called DENIAL and refuses to admit that she has gained 20+ lbs in the last year. She wears very very tight shirts and the corresponding undergarments that fit her last year. She sits right in front of me and, seriously, between the bra cutting into her and the shirt being so darn tight, the shirt just goes down her back in ripples! Honey, none of us are supermodels, but I'm afraid that this just isn't the best look for you.

hahaha some of these are just hilarious...I do know about the whole no white thing but no nude hose??!! OMG i am soo white i have to wear em lol...we have to dress up for meetings but other than that im a casual girl who loves to just wear a cute top and nice jeans or kakis!

Nichole

Well, since we are talking about some PERSONAL dress codes, I have two that really- REALLY get to me.

One is wearing the WRONG style for the WRONG body type-
Flat chests wearing tops meant for more curves or pencil thin girls in tight-tight pants-especialy if they are black.
The opposite is just as true-full figures wearing tubes-halters etc.
THE WRONG SIZE/STYLE CLOTHES!

This one is the BIGGIE though-
When fashion becomes a uniform. Say you walk into a club and EVERY SINGLE GIRL has on the same thing (like those one shoulder tops) I'm not refering to the season's fashion like bell bottoms or capri-mostly picking ONE style out of the season's offering. BUT-it's far worse when the older ladies do it. When the floral skirts had a "matching" sweater, EVERYONE would wear a version to the League meetings...It was like a bunch of penguins following each other around.

I'd rather see individuaity in style than mass production repeated ad nauseum-as long as it FITS! (Oh, and men wearing black socks with shorts....)

Can I talk about two looks I can't stand?

First of all, those "seasonal" sweaters. Like a Halloween sweater made from black yarn with orange jack-o-lanterns on them or a Christmas sweater in green yarn with santas or reindeers on them. I hope I don't offend anyone who has them, I guess I just prefer something a little more understated.

Pleated pants are another one. I think people wear them thinking they'll cover their "pooch" but all that happens is the pooch fills up the pleats and causes them to expand and that calls attention to the body part they're trying to hide.

Oh, and I have one more. Thankfully, its day has come and gone, and I hope it never comes back again: High heels with jeans!
