For the love of all that is holy people, put some pants on! Or wear a longer shirt! No one wants to see that hot mess.</p> <p>I love Uggs (esp their actual tough winter boots, not the kind you see all over, although I like those too) but I live in New England and when it's -15 out those suckers are WARM!!</p> <p>I hate twilight/50 shades and other uber-popular poorly written fiction. Especially fiction with weird undertones and weird messages for women re: relationships with men. </p> <p>I also don't get the obsession with the 80's by people who were not even alive in the 80's. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-238893 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 21:40:00 +0000 SleepyMonkey 238893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@aunt pol: hahaha, your leggings point is one of my biggest pet peeves! we call those see-thru leggings "tights"...ladies, if you take the "legging" and stretch it on your hand and can see your skin? put it back...they are tights. doesn't matter if it says "leggings" on it. leggings should never be see through. ever. </p> <p>clearly i am rant-y about this issue! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-238752 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 19:59:52 +0000 Mrs. Pen 238752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ombre: I have had ombre hair for the last 1.5 years. It has been my favorite hairstyle to date lol on me though it's pretty subtle and just the very ends are a little lighter. This was my inspiration: <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/284430532685779980/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/pin/284430532685779980/</a></p> <p>Feathers: I think they're kinda cute to be honest!!</p> <p>colors in hair: love this <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/284430532685682915/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/pin/284430532685682915/</a></p> <p>Rompers: on adults? no freakin' way. It was popular in the 80's, my mom and grandma wore them. I saw my MIL in one on vacation. it was.... yeah... umm..</p> <p>Uggs: never been a fan. My husband said they are the worst invention known to man. and NO MAN I know finds them attractive lol. He calls them elephant feet. He also said leggings are the worse invention ever but I disagree.</p> <p>@Mrsdaredevil: if I were skinny I would totally wear colored skinnies too!!</p> <p>umm I don't get the bun on top of the head- looks just messy to me <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/244812929714976785/" rel="nofollow">http://pinterest.com/pin/244812929714976785/</a></p> <p>and harem pants... just awful... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-238723 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 19:13:52 +0000 HLK208 238723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsdaredevil: but you can pull them off!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237463 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 07:36:02 +0000 sorrycharlie 237463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hah, I'll admit to loving Uggs. I live in New England, so they get me through the winter! &amp; yes, expensive - but the pair I purchased 4 years ago for $160 are still going strong. No one can tell me they haven't spent $40 on a pair of shoes that lasted about a year! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237393 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 06:30:36 +0000 aunt pol 237393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Tricycle: yes! Complete dust trap!<br /> Can't abide jeggings on adults. Yuck.<br /> Leggings where backside is not covered by tunic or similar and said backside is big enough to stretch the fabric far enough to show panties through.<br /> Don't know if it's an Irish/uk thing, but teens wearing pjs out and about- usually with uggs. Ug is right....<br /> Love uggs but pretty much only as slippers. Our weather is too wet in winter for them to be any kind of practical. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237384 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 06:21:09 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 237384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tissue paper pom pom clusters on a nursery ceiling. How do you dust those suckers?!?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237370 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 05:56:49 +0000 PrincessBaby 237370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh and it's not that I DISLIKE the ring fingernail painted the different color, so much as I just don't understand it...Is there a meaning that one of you can explain to me? I think if I knew what it "meant" then that would help! It just kind of drives me nuts because I don't know what it means. And if it doesn't have a meaning, then yes- it will continue to urk me a bit. I need reasoning, haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237369 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 05:53:20 +0000 PrincessBaby 237369@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just in further support of Team Ugg, I bought baby ones in Sand for Harper....Mostly as a photo prop since we live in FL, and so she can match me in mine should we have a cold week or two in December (which we usually do)! I may get her the pink ones later....But she REALLY doesn't need 2 pairs of baby Uggs in S Florida so I at least went with the more practical color:)</p> <p>She is getting in on the trend early:)<br /> [attach=1247/12/m7tfkx.350x350.Shoes_iA07148.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237357 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 04:43:06 +0000 SAHM0811 237357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Penny Lane: haha thank you... I hate seeing such precious newborns/babies with humongous flower headbands on their heads. it looks too over-the-top most of the time.</p> <p>Uggs may look ugly but they are comfortable! In the fall and winter in NYC, that's what me and my girls wear a lot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237352 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 04:23:24 +0000 anonysquire 237352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Red: I love my LVs but I probably did buy them just to show them off. But they are really great bags! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237332 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:53:13 +0000 Penny Lane 237332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sweet T: especially here in NZ (i'm not sure if this is the case anywhere else, or if we're just style challenged), for some reason mullet tops are "in" as well, so you see plenty of people pairing mullet tops with mullet skirts... Disaster! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237313 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 02:15:32 +0000 Sweet T 237313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely don't get the ombre trend, especially the hair!</p> <p>@Penny Lane: haha @ the mullet skirts! I don't care for those either! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237307 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 01:46:24 +0000 Penny Lane 237307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ombre hair! To me it looks like someone got lazy and couldn't be bothered re-dying their roots! Obviously, no offense intended to those with hair like that!</p> <p>On the other hand, I'm totally wearing leggings (in my defense my shirt is long enough to mostly cover my booty!) along with some beach feet (our cheaper version of UGGs) and I would totally have no problem going out to the supermarket like this!</p> <p>Other things I don't get: intricate fingernail art, flowers as big as the new borns head in newborn photos?! and the mullet skirts </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237298 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 01:12:56 +0000 Boogs 237298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Red: I feel ya on LV, I don't dig the pattern, especially with the price tag. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237297 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 01:10:49 +0000 Red 237297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not a big fan of UGGS either, other than for staying warm. I once told a friend that they were called UGGS cause they were UGG-LY. Of course, she then proceeded to tell me that she just bought some, lol.</p> <p>I also never got the whole Louis Vuitton LV patterned purses, luggage, etc. Since it's not a very aesthetically pleasing pattern, I can only surmise that people bought them as status symbols. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get/page/2#post-237287 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:40:49 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 237287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HeatherlovesKenny: omg I just bought some tealish green skinny jeans from Nordys and I LOVE THEM!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get#post-237277 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:17:03 +0000 HLK208 237277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Colored skinny jeans...they look good on some people but I can NOT pull them off with this post-preg body! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get#post-237273 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:12:14 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 237273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: agree with you on the uggs! I have been wearing them every fall and winter since the 11th grade. I definitely don't rock them with a mini skirt though.</p> <p>And I LOVE guys in tight jeans!<br /> Ombre WAS cool, but now its played out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get#post-237272 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:10:23 +0000 Mrs. Cat in the Cradle 237272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kinda different, as it isn't fashion related, but AMC original programming. It seems that all my friends love everything, while I have exactly 0 interest in any of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get#post-237265 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:02:11 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 237265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loooove uggs! Love them! But I wear them correctly, as in: when it's snowy and with pants. I hate the ombré hair and mismatched nails and....men in skinny jeans. But everyone seems to hate uggs so I guess we're even, me and society:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-there-any-popular-trends-that-you-dont-get#post-237130 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 22:07:46 +0000 mrsjazz 237130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Really short shorts.
