I need to start by saying that I absolutely love fashion. I love clothes, shoes, jewellery, bags - the works! I like buying, wearing, seeing, sampling... if its, fashion I like it!
Its this love for fashion that has inspired this note as certain things have really been annoying me for a while.
There was a time when clothes and shoes were only made in what was then deemed as 'average' sizes. This meant that if you were larger or smaller than the 'average' you were forced to do many alterations. Due to the developing nature of our race we have now been blessed with a tall, petite and plus size sections in every store so can someone please explain to me why on earth people are still wearing ill fitting clothes?
Examples include
* tall girls wearing ankle swingers
* busty girls with their boobs hanging out
* bootylicious girls displaying crack
* muscular guys wearing their little bro's jumper
* girls with size 8 feet squeezing into size 5's
* Guys who wear their jeans below their butt to hide the fact that they outgrew them 3 years ago
That is just a short list but you get my drift. Now this has been going on for years and you're probably wondering why I'm complaining now, one word - leggings!
More specifically jeggings but leggins too. Now I watch tv too and I know we live in a wannabe-celebrity era but seriously, why should the rest of us, the portion of us that have been to specsavers, have to suffer the disgusting - yeah I said it, disgusting - sights that are becoming a norm?
A few weeks back I was in west end minding my business and trying to enjoy a rain free day. I was having a great time with my oreo mcflurry (love that stuff) until a girl suffering from body dysmorphic disorder appeared in front of me. Now, she wasn't fat (I'm a fat-o-phobic, but that's another story) but its besides the point and people don't seem to get it! The problem was that she wasn't firm. I think I need to state that I don't agree with girls wearing leggings without a top long enough to cover your bum , but if you are going to do that then you really need to ensure you are toned. I repeat - toned! Not slim or curvatious or below a certain size - just toned! Celebrities put a lot of hours in the gym in order to wear leggings so what makes you special!?
The problem I have with jeggings in particular is that girls seem to forget that unlike jeans, jeggins will expose your cellulite, rolls and wobbly bits!
Girls also seem to love the jeggings and boob tube look which is a great look but leads to my other pet pieve. Now, I'm a busty girl myself and I fully understand how hard it is to get a top to fit you without looking like you're giving a peep show, many a time I have had to turn away from a top that would have looked great if only I had smaller boobs. So how is it that girls with huge boobs not only wear tops with everything hanging out, but tops that are clearly too small! If you got big boobs best believe they are not going unnoticed so why the Jodie Marsh look? And don't say that's probably the look they were going for because when they are ruining an otherwise classy dress, it's clearly not. If your seam is bussin' and the areola of your breast is on display then you obviously need a bigger size - and no, it will not fit better on Saturday!
Seriously, people need to realize one size does not fit all!!!
Hilarious
