Fashion is an expression of who you are…but nobody wants be a “DON’T”. Follow these faux pas to stay on the “DO” list!
1. DON’T wear nude pantyhose with open-toe shoes. Get a manicure and rock your shoes the way they were intended.
2. DON’T assume society wants to see your midriff. Unless you are at a resort or in the gym, midriff shirts are a DON”T, regardless of how smokin’ your body may be.
3. DON’T recreate Miami Vice fellas. We DON”T want to see your chest hair exposed in an overly unbuttoned shirt.
4. DON”T sport your children’s clothing. The Disney store is for kids. Let’s keep it that way.
5. DON’T rock a matching denim ensemble. Just because your jacket and jeans match doesn’t mean you should wear them together.
6. DON”T ever think pleated pants will make a comeback because they won’t. If your mom still wears them, burn ‘em for her.
7. DON’T ever wear a scrunchy in your hair. Like Carrie told Berger in Sex and the City, “No New York girl in her right mind would be caught dead wearing a scrunchy.” That goes for all of you!
8. DON’T walk downtown in sneakers and a powersuit. While I realize women on the go have to be comfortable, it just looks ridiculous.
9. DON’T try to hide behind the baggy look - it adds 10 pounds to your frame. You can achieve comfort with clothes that actually fit.
10. DON’T fabric clash and mix leopard with zebra or brocade with corduroy. The textures of your clothes shouldn’t look like you just walked out of a fabric store and stapled your outfit together.
