Top 5 Sins Against Fashion

March 13th 2008 00:04
What Fashion mistakes stand out for you?

A classic example


Over on the LA Times Blog there is a really amusing piece on fashion Faux pas titled “The Vaticans Five Fashion sins”

According to latimes.com the top 5 travesties of style are:

1. Thou shalt not wear gold lame short-shorts--a.k.a Satan panties--from American Apparel unless thou art a tart.

2. Thou shalt not fight over the straightening iron. In fact, thou shalt confer over which thou will be going out with flat hair, which, incidentally, looks extremely fussy and fey on a dude.

3. Thou shalt not wear brown lip liner with no lipstick. Evil. Makes the devil dance a jig and cause droughts.

4. Thou shalt never ever, ever wear a boa. Ever.

5. Thou shalt not dress like a naughty Catholic school girl gone teen runaway meets a Vegas stripper when thou art, like, 30-plus. The Pope really hates that look.


Too see the images that illustrate these Haute Couture Commandments visit latimes.com

Naturally the whole purpose of pilfering this post was so that I could add a few of my own abominations and ask you, what are your top 5 fashion faux pas?

1. Thou shalt not have an artificially enhanced breast size that frightens little children and causes bodily harm to those who have them.

Duck or I'll shoot


2. Though shalt not wear fluorescent colours outside the house.

3. Thou shalt realise there is such a thing as too much cosmetic surgery

The obvious choice?


4. Thou shalt not forget that guys should always wear a belt with dress pants if your shirt is tucked in.

no belt pants
No, no, you justhave to say no!


5. The style lords decrees ugly Ug boots are never cool, but make good slippers.

So what are your fashions sins that the Vatican should decree hell worthy offences?

Hmmmm...

1) Thou shalt not wear superfluous belts
2) Thou shalt not mix gold and silver jewellery
3) Thou shalt not wear high-waisted jeans (I know they're in fashion, but they're soooooo unflattering!)
4) Thou shalt not wear heels so high the wearer can't walk properly, but...
5) Thou shalt not wear Crocs

What about spandex? No one should ever wear spandex, that includes bicyclists. No one looks good in it period.

Haha. I agree with the old people wearing school girl outfits.

Guys with really short, denim or white shorts... what do you think? I see them a lot nowadays.
