clothing that is too tight
clothing that has a poor fit
things that expose the ugly and cover up the beautiful
old hand bag
ratty hair (I am a stickler for beautiful hair and make up and if these things are not tight no clothes you are gonna wear will help out)
the shoes are the outfit! A nice out fit with bad shoes is crXp but a great pair of shoes can glam up a very plain outfit.
Purse must go with the shoes but not necessarily match
A lady wears understated elegant jewelery not heaps of pieces every where.
Bad odor can destroy a lovely look. Bad breath too.

Using a nice natural lipgloss and then outling the lips with a harsh very dark pencil.yuk!
Slapping foundation on and not blending properly
wearing a foundation that is too light
using red eye brow pencil on the brows, why?
wearing white knickers underneath tight shirts or trousers
wearing white bra underneath sheer top
too many accesories, less is more
short short mini over fat bulging legs and belly, no, no no!!
uncombed, tangled ill looking weaves, too light and it looks trashy,

A) Wearing weaves that ain't done right. I mean you can see all the nappy hair underneath.
B)Bleaching cream! I can't say this enough. . . . it is disgusting seeing a young girl with bleeped up hands because of tura. . .lol
C)High- waisted jeans isn't for everyone . . seriously it isn't! If you have big stomach please refrain from wearing it as it highlights the tumbo stomach.
D) Wearing shades at night. . . so ghetto!
E) Wearing foundation that doesn't match the skin. Also eyeshadow that looks like willy willy own.
F) If you haven't got the beautiful skin and nice legs. . . then don't show them mosquito bitten legs.
G) Don't wear all the make-up you have all at once! Less is more.
H) I don't wanna see the deodorant white marks on your armpit either. Also shave that bush biko!


Just wear something you are comfortable in. Don't follow the fashion trends but be yourself! Be confident and you will look good in almost anything.

~Wearing Leggings as Trousers shocked Thats a No-No !! Leggings are best worn with a thigh/knee length dress/Top wink ~


~Wearing Stiletto's with leggings ~Unless you're doing a workout video . . it a hell-No!!
Ballet flats,flats,knee length boots,wedges are the shoes to wear w/ Leggings!!~



~Wearing shirts w/ the buttons about to pop out any minute!! If you have gaps inbetween the loops of the shirt,you need another size up!! well endowed women seem to be a fashion victim of this habit!! If You're busty,stay away from shirts that dont lap when buttoned!!


~Tying scarfs over trousers!! Need i say more lipsrsealed

guys with bleached skin.we all know bleaching in all sexes is irritating but it really is a soresight when its a man.

pink skirt,pink bag,pink hair ruffle,pink shoes,pink earrings,light pink chiffon top and pink bra,pink chunky beads(around neck),and to top it off pink wooden bangles.oops forgot pink eyeshadow and blusher as well as pink nail varnish and baby pink lipgloss.

~Oooh BTw fellows grin Its such a turn off packing a very bulky wallet behind your back pockets!! not to talk of front pockets . . . If you MUST,dont overload your wallets,better still,there are various variety of men's hand bags out there wink

Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by uzoo: 10:48pm On Sep 25, 2008
not sure if this is a fashion mistake girls make or just the fact that they

tend to be hypocritical, and i mean when girls

start to tie wrapper or kaftan /boubou as your only descent way of looking good

as soon as you get married or have kids, that really puts me off,you tend to see young girls

dressed like thier grannies when they go out, just because you want appear descent.

common you need a bit of mix-up
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by Tatase(f): 8:50pm On Oct 03, 2008
I have so many pet peeves:

1.) Blonde hair weave on dark dark girl (even white pple don't think that's your hair. It's awful and it looks stupid don't do it.)
2.) Light colored contacts on black people (NO! put them down. It looks like cataracts. Like something is wrong with your eyes. It's really disturbing and looks weird and witchy).
3.) Red eyebrow pencil (this color is only in existence for clowns. It's bad to shave off all your eyebrows. it's worse to pencil in with red brow pencil).
4.) Dark/Black lipliner (it just never ever looks nice. Lipliner if used shld match lipstick).
5.) When people think the fact that something is in their size, they should wear it (not everything is for everyone e.g. flat-chested pple exposing flat chests, chubby pple in hot pants/leggins/half-tops)
6.) Tapered trousers and high-waisted trousers (I think very few pple can pull either of these off and I think too many people try to and unless you're on the slim side, it's not ok, just where what looks good on you).
7.) When you have a hair weave or you're wearing a wig and the kokos (naps) underneath are showing
8.) Skinny guys in big baggy clothing <shakes head>
9.) White athletic socks with shoes other than athletic shoes.
10.) Sparkly/glittery clothing in the day time (it looks trashy like one long walk of shame from the night before)
Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by ajiriavae(f): 7:10pm On Oct 04, 2008

3. Too much jewelry.

4. Panty lines.

Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by olive4rl(f): 2:43pm On Oct 14, 2008
putting on too much make ups sometimes make us look like AGABA. some don't even have mirrors in their houses, they will just dress and walk out to the streets. UNA DEY FALL OUR HANDSOOOOO.

Re: Fashion Mistakes People Make by Sweetthing(f): 7:47pm On Oct 30, 2008
1. Colour WWIII, eish,

2. Colour Rainbow-Thunderstorm love-hate affair, ag man,

3. Underwear colour mix-matching!!! No, no, no, no, no, no,no, no & no,

4. DO NOT WEAR HIGH HEELS IF U CAN'T WALK THE WALK! Ambulance/Emergency rescue crew & Fire fighter's precious time is wasted approx. every hr due to this arrogance o, Guaranteed 2-3 months sick leave = wasted physio resourses & time + , +, +, once u break yo ankle,

5. High heel season is now on! Steel-dugging-concrete-tarr noise is non-stop already!!! Pliz take yo high heels to the cobblers for heel tip repairs, preezzzzzzzz, If not cobblers, else = throw them away!

6. Fake designer labels! Why, mara why? Better buy a no-name bag @ the Flea market for £10.00 than buy a PRADI fake bag for £50.00, nxxxx

7. Make-up + hair disasters!!! There can only be one acceptable Amy Winehouse around the globe, and that's AW only abegi o,

8. Ladies pliz shave your armpits all the time o! If allergic 2 shaving creams or waxing plasters, pliz get shaving machines NOT shaving razor, mncmmm

9. Perfume in public places! Pliz use WC/rest room cubicles 2 refresh with "yo" beloved perfume. Only u and u only who likes that scent1 Other people might be reminded Doom or some washroom airfreshner. So, pliz respect fellow diners in restaurants, colleagues, and anyone nearby,

10. The list is endless,

thread resurected! smiley
Fashion is really a funny concept. Things go out of fashion and come back in fashion, GREAT example, SKINNY JEANS, in the 70s 80s, they were on point, towards d late 90s nd early millenium they went outta fashion, but Now .THEY r back doing there thing , not sending anybody, gosh i love skiinies,
another example  is color rioting, its dope now, b4 it was so whack
so now to d topic: wat good fashion sense means 2 u might mean smthing else 2 me, so i think there is nothing lyk fashion mistake. if U THINK U LOOK GOOD ND COMFY IN WAT your WEARING  AND IT MAKES SENSE  (IF SOMETHING SEEM WRONG 2 U. DEN ITS WRONG, THATS 1 THING ABOUT FASHION. ull know urself if wat your wearin is whack or not)cheesy ;Dden go 4 it, sooner or latter ull c people emmulatin your stlye. HOWEVER at d same tym people do really have whack fashion Sense. e.g wearing tops as dress. SHE DRESSES TI TAN LOJA NI ABI WAT?.yh there r some a lil bit longer tahn normal tops but pls dont mistake them 4 dresses,
nd theSE r things i always emphasize wen it comes 2 fashion. MAKE A FASHION STATEMENT nd HAVE your OWN STYLE, b UNIQUE
Wendy80:

wearing a belly belt and a waist belt together, is a fashion no no
so if my pants r lose, i shouldnt wear belt, your meant 2 say "making it obvious that your wearing a belly nd waist belt"
