Yo-GAH! and UGG-lies.

   Oops, sorry, it has been too long. I may not have time to post being as that I am still in school and I currently only have one computer shared between 4 people. So anyways, on to more important matters.

   I want to get one thing straight before you all start thinking the same thing about me and this blog. I love to smash things clothing I hate. I also criticize and rant about fashions I do not like, a lot. But... this blog will not ONLY be about the negatives of horrifying trends, that is not what I intend. I will write as many positives as I can. :)

   Firstly, D&G (Dolce and Gabanna for those of you just learning). I watched their show for online and I instantly fell in LOVE. Black, White, and Leopard Print fabrics...with lace... = to die for. It was amazing, and I suggest you check it out RIGHT NOW (after you read my rant though ;D).

All this lace is just, Gorgeous!


   Alright now, down to business. Time to deal with the epidemic that has plagued it's way into corporate work places and high schools across North American... Yoga Pants. Women are wearing these day in and day out with the ever hideous UGG boots. Yoga pants are meant for what again? Oh yes... YOGA! UGG boots are meant for what again? Oh yes, no one really knows. All I know is that they are ugly, purposeless, and should have never been created in the first place. Lets break this rant down a little bit:
        Yoga Pants - Yes, the fabulous ass-lift that these pants give are incredible and no one can really deny that. You know what's even better than faking an amazing ass though? Having one. Time to put those pants to good use and use them in class (Yoga class, not school please). I especially cannot stand the ones with the colourful waistbands. It's obvious why.

That's supposed to be Sexy?
(The model looks gorgeous, it's her job...but those pants?! UGG-ly! haha)


         UGGs - They look like slippers. They are NOT water resistant. They look sloppy as hell! Oh, just one tidbit, they wreck the bones in your feet and kill any arch support causing back problems in most women. They should not be worn with anything, ever. Sweat pants are no exception. It's looks like you just got out of bed, so please stay there, in bed. The very few upsides to these are that they are warm and comfortable (so I have heard, I would never dare even trying these on), but is risking health and your overall appearance worth these boots? I do not believe so. Please leave them at home where they belong... deep, deep, deep in the depths of your closet, or under your bed... never to be seen again.

"With each step the wearer’s feet slide around. This can cause the feet to splay which flattens the foot arch and leads to wear and tear on the joints in the feet, knees, hips and back." - Manolo Blahnik


  Thanks to those who actually read all of that, kudos to you <3 I promise I will try and update this blog as much as possible in the near future. XOXO

Knock Those Socks OFF!

   First of all, I know it's the new hot trend for girls to wear knee high sock with some form of shorts or even skirt, but seriously? I admit, it is cute, but the styling just seems all wrong. Do you know what I mean? Yes they do show that bit of sexy thigh, but sometimes, if done wrong, it looks like you forgot the rest of your hosiery. Everyone who has fallen victim to this trend has one thing in common... claiming it as their own. Maybe you've seen it on a blog somewhere, and it is okay to admit that. I'd definitely do this maybe a few times because I'm from chilly Vancouver BC... oh wait, that's what pants and leggings are for...hmm.

Cute... but practical?


   Secondly, the destroying of the sexyness of the heel. The sleek sexy heel that's sole purpose is to extend the length of the leg and make it look like it is going on for miles has been destroyed by the, "oh so ever stylish" sock. The fad of women wearing socks with strappy heels or simple pumps is completely ridiculous especially since it is a Spring/Summer fad. The time when breezy heels are supposed to be worn and the nude foot is supposed to reach out for air. If you want to imprison your foot in wool for all of summer, I have one thing to say to you... have fun with your sweaty socked feet.


(Left) 2011 April addition of Seventeen Magazine...Wedges + socks = very likely broken ankle. (Right) Adding socks to heels does not... does NOT mean you're creating a new shoe. More like you changed your mind on what shoes you decided to wear and forgot your socks. Eek!

As a concluding sentence to my rage fest on socks. Socks make me think of sweaty things that are used to keep my shoes from smelling rank after a good workout, or to keep my toes warm. Pass, on this Faux Pas.
