Out with the old in with the new

Here are some trends that I am hoping will not make it to 2013.  Not all of these are hateful, some have just over stayed their welcome.

#1  Anything with leather sleeves

#2  Peplums, you are the worst!
p.s. this is I used to dress my barbies in, when barbie had to go to 'work'.



#3 The 'cut-out', which has ruined many a top and dress.  Often times revealing some odd bit of flesh in a 'new' way.  Seen here on a peplum top.  Double foul!

#4  The 'twist' top, not particularly awful, but far to present to be of any interest for next season.

#5 The 'high-low' hem.  Make up your mind and decide whether you want your dress long or short, reflecting this lack of choice in your garment makes us question your decision making skills.


#6 The color of the year 'ox blood'.  This color is awful and reminiscent of poor interior design decisions from the '90s.



#7 Crop Tops, because I'm not comfortable with your bellybutton.


#8  The '90's were full of some really great design trends, this however was not one of them.  Why are we reviving high waisted acid washed jeans?!?

#9 Leggings are Not pants.  I love an elastic waistband (aka 'soft pants') as much as the next person, but you've got to leave those jammy pants at home.
