1.The early 2000's gave us a few interesting fashion trends, but possibly the most cringe-worthy was the "Whale Tail," which is what it's called when the top of your thong sticks out of the top of your jeans.

2.Waist training – using a corset or clincher to make your waist look smaller – used to be a thing of the past, but thanks to celebrities like the Kardashian sisters, it's making a comeback via things called waist trainers. Corset training, waist training, and tight lacing are all the same thing, and as far back as the 1500's women started using garments with "bones" (no, really, many were made from whale bone) to train their waists smaller, sometimes resulting in internal injury.

Bullet Bras were a thing in the 1950's, designed to make a woman's breasts look, well, pointy. We're still not sure why. Madonna took this look to the extreme in 1990 with her now infamous golden cone bra.

Leggings aren't pants, and they never were, unless you're on your way to or from yoga class. Also note, if any part of them is in any way sheer, what you're wearing is technically tights. 1 Like

Fanny packs are a 10/10 on the utility scale but sadly only a 2/10 on the attractiveness scale. That didn't stop everyone from having one in the 90's though.

Originating in the 1970's, shiny shirts on men made a resurgence in the late 90's and early 00's. Hopefully this time they'll stay gone.

Platform flip flops. If you were born between 1980 and 1995, you had a pair of these, don't lie. Probably also a toe ring.

Gentleman, your underwear are for going *under* what you're wearing. They are not the top decorative layer of your pants, and your belt does not go below your bum. If you have to hold up your pants when you take a step so that they don't fall off, you have missed the point of pants. And if you're trying to defend this, just remember that Justin Beiber wears his pants that way.

No one is really sure where the trend of several popped collars on polos came from, but everyone was grateful when it left. A single popped collar can be traced back to men's fashion of the 1700's, but that was a much more formal affair. No matter how kind and sweet of a person you were, several popped collar polos was like wearing a sign that says, "I'm a bit of a tool."

Pleated jeans were popular in the 80's and 90's, though for some reason several designers tried to bring them back in 2015. Let's learn from the past, guys.

Nail art can be anything from a simple flower to some more elaborate designs with 3D objects and charms, and some of it is absolutely artwork. However, at some point, one has to ask if we're choosing form over function.

Yes, I am traveling a lot all over the world and every time I am walking in the street I see people who wear fanny packs and look very stylish. If you check new magazines you will see that they are in trends nowadays. I have bought a few waist bags in Cambodia (http://caraweb.org/tag/cute-fanny-packs) and wear them almost every day. |
