Title: The worst fashion trends of 2008
Author: ModernWoman
Are you someone who always wears the latest fashion, or do you have an own style?
There are trends that return so now and then, or stay a little longer than a season or one year. Think for instance of the sunglasses and Uggs.
There are many sites that are informing you about the latest trends in fashion. A number of that sites even gives tips about the do’s and don’ts of particular clothing. “The worst fashion trends” are often found amongst celebs, and these are often discussed on the Internet. Quite frequently these celebs try to develop their own style and completely ignore the modern do’s and don’ts of fashion and even ignore the fashion advise of their (wardrobe) stylist. (This results in long talks/discussions about wrong clothes combinations on forums and fashion magazines).
I have too admit that I don’t follow all the trends. I try to combine the fashion trends I like with my own fashion style & items, so I can develop my own style.
But there are trends that I TRULLY dispice. Even when they’re HOT items, are the celebs wearing them or are they made by a famous designer, that doesn’t matter to me.
Below a list with 10 trends from 2008 I REALLY don’t like that much.
My absolutely number 1: Uggs
2: Gladiator Sandals
3: men in skinny jeans ( for women okay, even the skinny jeans is not made for every woman, but I saw several men wearing skinny jeans and that raised my eyebrows, OMG this is so wrong!!)
4: High-Waisted Jeans
5: Full skirts (skirts with a lot of Volume, my opinion is that it make look you fat!)
6: Bikini jeans
7: Sunglasses at Night
8: Open-toe shoes with tights
9: high Thick, chunky heels or Tapered heels
10: Celeb Perfumes

Haha! I agree with you 100%! Especially the gladiator sandals. I go often between the U.S. and the Netherlands and notice the differences & similarities in the clothing. Most of all, I notice what I don’t like. Out shopping here in the Netherlands, I ran into a Dutch friend. She told me she was out to buy some Uggs or moon boots. All I could think was, “Oh. No.”
