#1. Improperly applied red lipstick. If you're going to wear red lips, at least figure out how to do it properly. This was the worst picture I could find, and it's not even that bad. I've seen way, way worse. Lipstick smears...on the teeth, on the cheeks. Lipstick that has faded, but the bright red lipliner remains strong and steady. Lips that are in bad condition so they're peeling, leaving big red chunks hanging from one's lips. Oh yeah. I've seen it all. And I hate it.
#2. When people just bleach their hair and fail to tone it. I'm no professional or anything, but I'm pretty sure when one's hair is dark to begin with and they bleach their hair, it takes on an orange-y appearance. That, my friends, is why you used a toner (all together now, T-O-N-E-R) to get rid of the orange tinge and get something that is more likely to resemble "natural" blonde.
#3. Heavy black eyeliner with no mascara. Especially if you have blonde lashes. This just looks dumb, like something's missing. I've noticed a lot of teenagers favor this look, and it drives me up a wall. Finish what you've started. If you're going to put on black eyeliner, finish it up with a coat or two of black mascara to keep the look polished.
#4. Uggs with sweatpants. I hated Uggs for years and resisted them when everyone and their brother were giving in. I let my guard down last year and bought not just one, but two pairs of Uggs, and I was a changed wo-man: I love my Uggs to death in the winter. BUT. I don't wear them with baggy sweatpants. Uggs go with two things: jeans/pants that are skinny enough in the leg to be tucked into the boot, or tights. They. Do. Not. Go. With. Baggy. Sweatpants. Ever.
#5. Ed Hardy. Need I say more?
So...I want to know. Do you hate these things as much as I do? What are some of your fashion and beauty pet peeves?
This is a very good list and I think I agree with it all!! Especially the eyeliner/mascara thing, it's so annoying!! I laugh at my sister because she has strawberry blonde hair and when she's at the stage in between eyeliner and mascara when applying her make up it just looks really funny =D

I agree with so many of these. I see so many girls here with sweatpants and uggs on and I just hate it!!
ReplyDeleteI was also anti-Ugg til I got mine, and now I love them, but only with leggings or skinny jeans.
and oh my god, I hate the eyeliner without mascara thing!!

HAHA! Totally agree!!!!
ReplyDeleteI hate when guys wear their pants really now, or wear tank tops (EW)...and girls.....shorts with Uggs is pretty bad too...and Uggs in summer XD

Ed Hardy is the woooorst! Agree.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why ANYONE finds Ed Hardy fashionable. It just screams, "I waste my money on useless, ugly clothing." I always thought that UGGs stood for ugly, but I understand that they are among some of the warmest boots out there for winter. I still refuse to purchase a pair. The whole sweatpants tucked into UGGs thing is what my bff and I term, "So college." As in, all these college girls wear them with their sweatpants, sweatshirt, and 'I just rolled out and I'm so hungover' attitude.
ReplyDeleteTotally agreed!
ReplyDeleteTo add - I hate when lipstick and lipliner don't match. It was so fashionable in the 90s but I hated that even then :)
I will second every single one of these! Uggs and sweatpants, the typical "college" look that I have to witness every day I go to class. Horrible.
ReplyDeleteYes to all. And what makes it worse is, I think these mistakes are the result of laziness or not caring.
ReplyDeleteUGGS! URGH sorry I'm still a hater! They've been around for quite a while now, I'm def not changing my mind I can't stand them!!
ReplyDeleteL x
i like your blog, pretty girl
ReplyDeleteHa ha, are we the same person? I hate all of those things too, particularly Ed Hardy shizz and the Ugg/sweat combo from hell. Uncalled for yet ubiquitous. I also despise Crocs with all my heart. Even on kids. Urgh.
ReplyDeletelove red lips :D
ReplyDeleteI agree with ALL of these, but I have to say that I can't get on board with UGGs period. I just think they cut the leg line off at a weird place and create a cement block look at the end of the leg. But that's just me. Apparently, 99.995% of the rest of humanity disagrees with me.
ReplyDeleteI hate Croc clogs on absolutely anyone who isn't 6 years old or younger. Can I get an AMEN??
Love you girl!. You crack me up.
Je t'adore,
Tracy
LOL .. I agree with all of this. I'm pretty bad at applying red lipstick though, so I should probably not be talking haha. But ya, orange hair is just gross, and sweat pants with uggs are UGG-ly!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this post! Especially #2, but that's because I have a friend who didn't know what they were doing and ended up with VERY orange hair and out of pride refused to do anything about it! (It was okay though, since we got a lot of mileage with jokes for a while. ;) ).
ReplyDeleteLet's see... I used to have a lot of thoughts about shoe styles that I didn't like, but I've changed my mind about so many of them I don't want to say anymore, in case I regret it later! I really do try for a live and let live approach to fashion, since I know that some people don't approve of what I do. (That's not to say, again, that I don't have opinions! Hehe, I have lots of opinions!) :)
Ha, I couldn't help but notice the lady with the red lipstick has a hair hanging off her mouth on the left side :P
ReplyDeleteAnd I couldn't agree with you more about Ed Hardy. Ick. And I still cannot get myself to wear Uggs.
whoops i actually rocked the eyeliner trend today when i couldn't find my mascara! Totally agree with you about Ed Hardy though and sorry but i'll never change my mind about uggs.
ReplyDeletethanks for your comment btw, truthfully i don't even like tinsel, flashing lights etc. but i do sort of think they would make me feel a little more christmassy! x
Okay I'm guilty of wearing Uggs with sweatpants when I was too lazy to put on anything decent but this happened only once. Or twice. Okay, maybe three times but oh well everyone's allowed to make mistakes right? ; )
ReplyDeleteYour list is SPOT ON!
ReplyDeleteI just had a brush with red lipstick the other day. I realize why I don't wear it now. Thank goodness I realized my mistake before I ever left the house.
ed hardy is spot on, ugly. lol! other than that, i can still tolerate the other ones on your list (but not necessarily like them. lol)

I adore wearing red lipstick - is there any other colour to wear in Paris? I think not;-)
ReplyDeleteI don't wear eye-makeup at all.
But I enjoy admiring it when expertly applied.
Thanks so much for your comment and the encouragement- only a few more days of craziness!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I agree with these, especially #4. I think one of mine is when people think that tights=leggings, which is just not true!
thanks for the tips dear !

what a great list!
ReplyDeletereally, that red ripstic picture is just ugly. agree with #3 as well:)
xxxHanna
Haha this is a perfect list!! Gosh all of these things annoy me. The red lipstick is the worst!
ReplyDeleteGosh I love you, need I say more??
ReplyDeleteXX
LOL, I love how the first three involve make-up/hair pet peeves - and I am in agreement with #1, people who apply on lipstick badly just looks... tacky. And I also abhor Ed Hardy (it doesn't help that people who wear that brand aren't exactly the classiest, haha). But my pet peeve is when girls wear tights (tights! not leggings) as pants... because pantyhose is definitely 10x more sheer than leggings and everything literally hangs out. They don't even pair it with a long top/tunic.
ReplyDelete- Sharon
agree on all of the above. especially the sweatpant and ugg combo!!
ReplyDeletethe only positive thing about ed hardy is that you automatically know to avoid any man wearing the brand. a special peeve of mine is bump-its. there's a girl in my bio lecture who always wears one. i find them so repulsive. every time i see it i want to scream. the thing that just about gave me an aneurysm was that i saw her at the gym and she had it in.
