I would wear the gently caress out of this. It's like an adult version of those cheap baton costumes for little girls.

I do like the skirt, and am neutral about the print. It's just the whole thing together, especially marketed as a prom dress.

I literally can't even look at the dress because I'm searching for cooch lines.

Oh, it's a prom dress? Then, no. I can hear my mom yelling across time and the ocean.

If JLo wore it, I wouldn't think twice. I do like the skirt, but not the bejeweled carbuncles or the unnecessary midriff windows. Bitch gonna tan so weird.

Overall, I think the bigger problem is the patterns. She's got polka dots on her top, skirt, and socks, and the scale on each is too similar. With that much skirt in that bright a pink, my gut reaction is that a smaller, denser dot pattern would be less jarring. The mismatched shoes and the hat can gently caress right off.

Moving on to menswear:

I love this but also realize it is a problem.

e: well, the hair and dress. Everything else is a hard no (socks are good, but not with that outfit)

Wait, is it a dress? I thought it was a poorly paired shirt and skirt. It's even worse for me if those patterns are on the same piece.

No, you're right; I took a really quick look at it before. :downs:

Yeah, I don't really like that combo so much. I love polka dots, but I would prefer she'd either gotten louder with a contrasting stripe, or more subdued in a plain one.

I worked in a store that sold these for six months. The whole time I worked there, we had a rack full of those hideous fuckers and no one ever touched them. It was like they were contaminated. There was a brief surge of interest around Christmastime because people wanted them for ugly sweater parties, but they were still $34.99 and not eligible for coupons. They ended up bottoming out at about $4.50 and people still thought it was too much. That's how ugly they are. It's like they poison the souls of everyone around them, and no amount of money is ever low enough. This dance. This endless waltz.

I bet they're still there, waiting for another, tinier markdown.

Balls.

probably not noticeably dirty but now I wanna clean my bag really good :gonk:

I have a couple of real fur purse balls, and a few faux fur ones. they can be washed by hand and brushed out and dried if needed!

I like taxidermy poo poo and I have a coyote paw I made into a keychain on my keys, like a rabbit's foot kinda thing, and at the moment I have a small raccoon tail on my bag too. I used to have larger tails and some homemade fur balls on different bags. when purse balls became a thing, I was like 'yes finally it's not as weird anymore' (it is weird) (I know)

my fashion choices a few years ago were awkward and awful and I wish I could've told myself to knock it off lmao
