I facepalm whenever I see someone who is not of a slim build wearing (or trying to wear) skinny jeans or a slim-fit T-shirt. Not an accessory, but fashiony type thing, which is as far as I ever stray into that area.

I said it in 2006 and I'll say it again now: Uggs. Seriously, think about this for a minute. Uggs are fucking slippers. I live in Vancouver. It tends to rain/snow/hail down hellfire on a fairly regular basis here, because our weather is just that awesome. Why in the name of God are you wearing woolen slippers out in 2 feet of snow?! I'm fairly certain they aren't waterproof.

Do not mistake me, it's not the shoes themselves I have any real problem with. I mean, yeah, they're not really my thing, but fashionable stuff rarely is. I don't delude myself into thinking that I am the epitome of style or whatever, but what I'm talking about here is really more how blatantly impractical, and how astoundingly uncomfortable this whole trend has become. They're boots that almost literally absorb moisture, and yet, at least 10% of the people I see outdoors in the pouring rain are wearing them.

Also, don't worry, I'm aware that our weather is incredibly mild compared to most places, but still, the boots are out of place.

Flip-flops anywhere outside a pool are not cricket. (EDIT: Ninja'd on the latter, I see.)
Try telling that to people who live is Australia and see how well that flies, over here they're called thongs btw.

Non-prescription nerd glasses, my brother bought a pair once... I slapped him and told him to take them off because he looks like an idiot.
Yet another Edit: Bloody hipsters, that is all.
Also Ties as regular casual wear, sure job interviews and semi formal events are fine but unless you're going to a wedding in every moment of your life you look like an idiot.
Edit: Also skinny jeans i had to go to 4 different stores to find a pair of normal jeans in my local shopping centre.

Good one guys, judging people based on what they wear. I sometimes wear some damn weird clothing when I'm in a rush, do I deserve to get beaten for wearing that?
We aren't talking about looking comfortable we are talking about accessories if you have the time to get into any of these things (besides the shoes) you aren't really all that rushed.
One more edit: Final note Pocket watches are bitchin'

Kinda on topic, I have this anklet that's just a string of bells. I wear it around the apartment when I'm mad at my roommate and wish to be annoying.

Fuck, fuck, FUCK these giant ass sun glasses that girls like to wear. Seriously, I cannot remember how many times they tricked me into thinking that the person behind them is good looking! And if the gal is presentable, they cover about 70% of her face! Why do that besides wanting to look like a fly?


By the way, to avoid spam, is was just forced to write 'envy-free urestra'. Go figure...

They are stupid.
Have you ever worn Crocs they're probably the most comfortable things I've ever put on my feet...<.<

OT: Scarfs and I don't mean all scarfs if it's cold or raining or something it's understandable... I mean the hipster scarf style... you know the one...<.<
^this, The 3rd person in the picture, Tight emo jeans, look how tight they are, and see how he has like two fingers in his pokets, they are so tight, that the pockets are just for show,

Also, the shoes that people buy from hot-topic, duno how to describe them, but they are more like slipons and most i have seen have a checkered design on the,

Corsets, as well as any faux-Victorian gear. It looks overwrought and it makes you look like a fantastic douchebag.

To quote a friend of mine: "Girls who wear corsets are, by and large, bi and large."

Yeah when I read this topic to my girlfriend she said these things immediately though neither of us could remember what they're called.

I don't know if these falls under fashion accessories, but ear gauges. I can see tattoos and piercings these can be artistic and subtle. Ear gauges are just self mutilation in the name of fashion and they're ugly as hell.

Ugg boots. They look stupid, have no support, they stink like a wet sheep after a while (a friend of mine had a pair and she went out in the rain wearing the stupid things), if they get wet they are damn near ruined, and they are a hell of a lot of money. They are over £100 in the UK. I mean, who on earth will pay £100 or over for glorified slippers?! They are just terrible.

I dislike all piercings, including earrings, on either gender. This probably makes me a big aberration though. Does anyone have the same opinion as me?
I have -stops to count- 7 piercings and 2 4mm plugs in my ears :p
The only people I've met who don't like piercings are scared of needles.But I guess I can see why they would be aesthetically displeasing.

this is more predominant in canada but wearing uggs as winter boots
THERE FUCKING SLIPPERS!
and having sweatpants tucked in like pictured below
These are everywhere in Australia (probably because it's an Australian product originally). And people wear them in summer as well.

I'm a corsetiere. I agree that cheap, plastic boned corsets that you find in most stores are God awful. But I make authentic corsets using steel bones. And I make more small custom sized corsets than large. I recently made one with a 16" waist.

I was was talking about the latter of your statement in that you said that you wear some weird stuff when you are in a rush which is fine like if people look a bit messy nobody cares however these people are NOT in a rush if they have the time to put on all of these ridiculous accessories then also have the time to look back and assess how idiotic they look.
Also the pocket watch thing was just an irrelevant piece of info because well they are quite bitchin'... when worn with suit.

How are you so sure these weird accessories aren't what first come into mind? To them it's everyday clothing but to us it's trashy stupidity.

Fashion is subjective. Fact!

I wouldn't say any kind of fashion pisses me off because being pissed about clothes seems pretty silly, but extreme amounts of sagging looks really stupid. I don't mean just baggy pants or whatever, I mean the guys that wear their pants below their asses and showing a foot of boxer fabric. For your own sake, cut that shit out. All it does is make you look like an idiot that can't operate a pair of pants and a belt correctly.

Also, the idea that a piece of cloth can make someone "look professional" (or that professionalism can be judged based on appearance instead of, I don't know, actual behaviour) is hysterical.
It's the way of the world. Whether or not it is fair or logical, we are judged by how we present ourselves, including how we dress. Having worked in a corporate environment, and studied fashion, I can tell you without a doubt that professionalism is as much about how you dress than anything else.
