Trends to end in 2012

Cowl Necks
First of all, only babies should wear bibs; adults, on the other hand, have no excuse. You should be able to eat without spitting up your food by now. All that extra fabric crowding around the chest area makes women look not only frumpy in all the wrong areas but also like crazy cat ladies.

Hipster Headbands
What is the point of wearing a piece of string across your forehead? This trend was popular in the 60s, and, guess what, people, that was fifty years ago, so get over it. It may look nice for the first few minutes, but lo and behold, in an hour your hair will turn into a colossal, disheveled beehive. Sorry, ladies, but only Amy Winehouse could pull off that look.

Over-embellished bags and accessories
Stop turning your bags into weapons! If you honestly feel the need to protect yourself, then please buy yourself some pepper spray. Studs can be adorable and complimentary on any accessory, but when you’re drowning in them, you begin to look like a prisoner in shackles.

Mom Jeans
The first question that comes to mind is: why on earth would women want to make their butts look longer and flatter than they really are? It does not matter what shape or size you are; these jeans will not work for you! I repeat: they will not work for you! You can cut them, dye them, sew patches on them, but none of that will matter because you are still left with a hideous pair of jeans.

Colored animal prints
This to me is the most disgusting trend of them all. Time and time again, I will see a purple cheetah-print crop top or a blue zebra backpack worn by young girls everywhere. What kind of fashion demon made this idea acceptable, and who on earth is buying it?! I would like to understand when tacky became trendy. Snooki, on the other hand, can wear whatever she pleases because she is paid to look that tacky. So unless you are getting paid millions to adorn this hideous pattern, I suggest you dispose of this trend immediately.

    i dont think mom jeans are meant to make your butt look longer and flatter, I thought they were meant to make legs look longer. I thought of it like an optical illusion where it makes your torso look shorter and your lower body longer. Longer legs are supposed to be more attractive.

    and im chill with uggs, i dont wear them but they look comfy. i say let a girl be comfy.

    I disagree with your piece about cowl necks, they draw the eye to the chest and upwards, which is ideal for curvy women who may want to take attention away from problem areas (i.e. curvy tummies).

    I don’t mind uggs, they are not terrible looking.
