i TOTALLY agree w/ the gold in the mouth thing. what's up w/ that anyways http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/confused.gif it looks like CRAP!!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif

If red nail polish & lipstick are "trends" they're the longest trends ever....

They're not for everyone, but I know when I wear Cherries in the Snow lipstick (a bona fide fashion classic!) I get a lot of positive attention. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

My vote for worst trend ever is when everyone went through that phase of tying their coats or flannels around their waist. WTF was that? I mean, I did that in second grade on the school bus, not in college. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/rolleyes.gif

The makeup faux pas that drives me NUTS is the dark brown lipliner with the clear gloss inside. It looks like you were trying to put on eyeliner and missed.

Cross Colour, Ewing sneakers (man those things were heavy), those big earings back in early 90s, perm hair (remember those hair bands back in the 80s?)and those jeans with holes.

That was goofy...my sister did that all the time. I used to make fun of her when she would be ready to go out with a light jacket tied around her waist in the middle of August, when it was 95 degrees out. "Good thing you're bringing a jacket...it's going to get chilly later on."

The worse trends , gee there are quite a few. But red lipstick is a classic, and preety toes, I love my toes so they have to be pretty http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif and Gold chains, umm, a lot of people have gold necklaces and chains(isn't that the same thing)
here are some Bad Bad Trends
1. Mega Loads of hairspray you know when you used to rock that fan shaped bangs in the 80's
2. The straw Hat thingys(if your in MD or Baltimore rather u know what I am talking about)
3. used jeans and cross color( the brand)
4. Gold, Bronze, Platnium teeth(it's not cute in the least bit
5. MC Hammer Pants (need I say more)

About the cross colours thing, i have a quick anecdote. They were big in what '92-94? at least in the midwest? i don't know, i was in JH then, but i think i remember a couple of older guys i knew having them. Anyway, my senior year, '97-8, we had an exchange student from the netherlands. Cross Colours was almost all he wore. I guess that was just getting trendy there or something. It's wierd how fashion travels. what's popular out east, hits the midwest a few months later, and the west coast even later, after it's gone in the east, and the same thing for what becomes popular out west. wierd.

hey now, on the right person and you do you it correctly, it looks really nice!

Yeah, one of my APO brothers does that and she looks awful with it. Buy I wouldn't tell that to her face or WWIII will begin. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

It's 2001. Ignorance lives.

Again, I said that the above was just my opinion, I'm not speaking for everyone else. Afros or big hair on guys of any race (Justin Timberlake had one) is just not my personal taste in guys. For example, many guys think that women with hairy legs are unattractive, that is the way our hair grows too. If I offended anyone, I didn't mean to and I'm sorry. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

No, I think she called me ingnorant.

AlphaSigLana:

The statement, without context, sounds ignorant. Perhaps you should have cited Justin Timberlake, or whatever his name is, in your original post.

Ewww...:
Thick, sparkly blue eyeshadow
Those little tiny butterfly clips
Half crimped-half not hair
Big baggy pants

The whole fake grunge look of the early to mid 90's
