Old men who wear knee socks with dress shoes and shorts. Men -when you're over 45, everything should be covered. Same for women over 45 - sorry, but that tattoo you got on your boob when you were 20 doesn't look so good now.

the greatest fashion oooppss of all times is the Nollywood actresses hair dos. it appears to me that the directors either do not dress their ladies up ,  or they have a pathetically bad taste some times you see a beautiful actress but the hair do ( extension or rasta or what ever they call it these days ) is so ackward. ini edo, chioma chukwura, just to name a few |

 Looks like all has been said. Not forgetting wearing so many colours, the shoes are brown, jean is blue, top is white, handbag is blue, necklace and bracelet are another colour. Damn!!! Match the colours people.

Biggest fashion oops: Ladies with spare tires wearing clingy tops ( Hellooooooooo) Scraping off eye brows and substituting with black pencil in typical Eucharia Amunobi- style ( pleaaaaaase) Lilac and silver lipsticks that clash with the complexion ( looks ghostly) Rows and rows of heavy chains on been-to guys ( that is sooo not cool) Skin bleaching such that you have hyperpigmentation in certain areas ( that looks so disgusting) Perfume one can smell from a 100 miles off ( Have mercy, somebody) Wearing a very tight belt on low hipped jeans such that the abdomen is cut in two obvious halves Muscle tshirts on non-muscled guys Floral shirts with striped ties and vice versa Big hair on ladies( that is so out of fashion) And so on,  |

You are as good as you feel, they can't be blamed if they think and feel they look good.  But nevertheless, stripes on stripes? I'd say it depends ! |

10- ladies, please give stiff wigs a wide berth.
9- balck women, please don't even think of wearing blonde hair, though beyonce looks great, she knows how to match it
8. never use extremely dark lipliner. match it with the colour of your lipstick. a shade or two darker
7 never ever use eyeliner on your lips
6 don't wear open toed shoes or sandals without nicely pedicured feet. its not fair to the shoes
5 never even dream of wearing low slung pants if ure fat with irritating skin( u know all the details)
4 don't flaunt ezcema infected,spotted, pimpled skin
3 don't expose bushy armpits. what are u thinking girl?
2 don't use pink or red eyeshadow, red and colours like that should be for the nails and feet. exceptions only come when you find the right shade and thats really hard to come by.
1. pretty please, don't completely pluck out your eyebrows and then fill it in with a pencil. thats really gross. sweat wipes it off and makes u look really funny

Like i said, it depends.
Some rules on wearing stripes (askmen.com)
> Mix stripes very carefully
Those with old school views on fashion vehemently oppose wearing two articles of clothing with stripes. For example, they would condemn the practice of wearing a pinstripe suit with a striped shirt. In today's fashion climate, however, such outdated rules do not apply. Still, this doesn't mean that anything goes -- make sure that the two articles of clothing have stripes of different weight.
> Go vertical
You have two fundamental options to consider when choosing between the kinds of stripes to wear: horizontal or vertical. With few exceptions, horizontal stripes are the more stylish choice. Unless you want to look like a Sesame Street character, Waldo or a jailbird, horizontal stripes can be difficult. Vertical stripes, on the other hand, do not carry many negative connotations, unless you are a Red Sox fan -- in which case you'd likely avoid pinstripes.
Vertical stripes make you look taller, which can be great if you're vertically challenged, but might make you look like Lurch if you're already tall. Wearing horizontal stripes also comes with the unfortunate side effect of making overweight people look even more overweight. It's an optical illusion of sorts, but perception is what sticks. So anyone with a few extra pounds should be extra wary of horizontal stripes.
> Beware of complementary colors
With direction and weight under control, you should next consider color. There are no particular colors that all guys should avoid. Your own personal style will dictate which colors should work for you. Certain color combinations, however, should be avoided. In particular, beware of complementary colors. These are colors opposite one another on the color wheel, such as red/green, yellow/purple and blue/orange. Contrasting colors will generally seem loud and often aesthetically painful when on top of one another.
Like i said, it depends. |

To Sammyjl - I couldn't agree with you more! I have also seen people with so many different (& jarring) colors on, that they look like a walking circus. But what I really don't get are the people who think they look good wearing seven different shades of the same color.

hate when guys wear ugly ties. N10 ties. gosh it kills me. ties that look like machetes or cutlasses. the knots badly made. knots that have been used and reused because the guy can't make his own knot.  |

I've been saying this one, and fortunately an opportunity to repeat myself lol People that wear under-sizes pisses me off . . someone that is a size 16, just in the cause of fun and to look sexy wearing a size 10 what's up with that?? I keep wondering though . . doesn't she have a dressing mirror, or she forgot to look into it before leaving her house?? I have a friend that is large bursted and she loves wearing lower-sized bras, everyone wants to be sexy, i guess thats her definition of push-up What the hell is wrong in wearing your own size, does that make you any less sexy and attractive?? Because with the under-sized clothings you think you're drawing attention, but meanwhile people are feeling sorry for you, because obviously, you owe no sense of shame  |

@ Amobi1 haha, and what does leaving my hair natural makes me? that eyebrow is a no no, i think it's pretty if you can have a professional do it for you. for a 5 dollars, i had mine done at the salon. i was shocked at the result, so pretty. if you know how to trim or it's well done, no need for the pencil. the well done eyebrow looks like there it's already penciled. i think putting pencil on the brow makes one look older, we aint in a hurry |

soulpatrol (f)

@omoge. yup. some salons can do it so well ehn. especially when they do the threading thing. very very smooth that you don't even need to line it. looks already penciled and natual. very cheap too. less than $10

yes, getting you eyebrows shaped is the way forward. Especially threading, it is very precise and is cheap, although waxing is good aswell.
DO NO SHAVE YOUR EYEBROWS!

WEll, erm - ordinarily i would agree but nah- a good weave is your passport to "bigger girls level" I have seen some fabulous weaves/wig./hair pieces! think Aaliyah, Gabrielle Union, even Oprah! Nigeria has bastardized a legit hair option. What people do with tracks of hair, thread is saddening! So you stand corrected Amobi- Girls without class put on weaves without class! |
