I think maybe the shoulder bag pushed it over the edge…LASM5 Trends I Love/Loathe May 18, 2008
LOVE
- The Bubble Skirt - It even manages to make MY legs look cute.
- Sexy One Piece Swimsuits - The return of the bombshell suit is one of the best things to ever happen to moms.
- Metallics - Shoes, bags, jackets, linen…I love it all; a much more glamorous neutral than neutrals.
- Tunics - Chic, lightweight and forgiving, I adore the old guard Palm Beach vibe.
- Wedges/Platforms - A modern and comfortable alternative to regular heels; the perfect ‘training wheels’ until I can get back into my stilettos.
LOATHE
- Wayfarers - I don’t care how hip they are, you still look like you’re about to sing Bob Seger in your tightie-whities.
- Skinny Jeans - “Hmmm…how can we make the LEAST flattering jeans of all time?”
- Crocs - Unless you are presently in your garden or four years old, take them off.
- Oversized Sequins - Because you WANT to look like a showgirl from Circus Circus?
- The Monokini - What…?
