Same type of thing happens with fashion (hello bubble skirts, jean leggings and crazy shoulders). At the moment I'm obsessed with a whole bunch of things that are sort of ugly and dated. "Give me an example Annie Fox!", well ok if you insist.
Tie-dye flares
I know these are bad - I know this because Erin Wasson is painfully hot and even she looks like a dick in them.
Clogs
I've always loved the 70s-boho interpretation of clogs. Thank you KL for inspiring a tonne of chainstores to rip off your amazing SS10 clogs at half the price!
Calf legnth tube dresses and skirts
This is a really shit 90s trend that I missed the fist time around thanks to puberty and a crippling dose of tomboyishness. I'm almost certain this is the worst of all my ugly hot obsessions - except maybe for old and paunchy Alec Baldwin. Hubba hubba.
Long dresses and combat boots
More shit 90s fashion (except this dandy duo got lots of wear during my teen years) - only Winona Ryder could ever look good in this.
Fluro bike shorts
WANT SO BAD. I can see myself wearing these babies with retro muscle tees and giant platform heels - like
Pretty Woman meets
Let's Get Physical, but entirely more crap.
So if you see me in the street wearing one/some/all of these heinous items, I ask you to please be kind and resist pointing me out to the person next you and having a laugh.
We've all had our ugly hot obsessions. Brad Pitt did schtoop Gwenyth Paltrow afterall.
(P.S. you can see pics of my shit fashion wishlist in the gallery above).
