I have recently cultivated two pet fashion peeves.
The first pet peeve is glasses without lenses. Everyone’s wearing them. From the NBA star Dwyane Wade to Fan Bing Bing, the famous China actress, to people at the office and people on the street. Why wear glasses when you don’t need them? Worse still, why wear glasses without lenses and then wear contact lenses? What’s wrong with everyone? Don’t they know they look ridiculous? Comical even? I get geek chic but this is something else.
Second pet peeve. Fake jewellery collars. Miu Miu do it. Marni too. But that doesn’t make it fashion forward, does it? Have a look at the one from Marni below, doesn’t it look like an over decorated neck brace?
Don’t get me wrong. I sometimes succumb to the trivialities of fashion. But there is a fine line between the fashionably unnecessary and fashion that is just plain dumb.
What’s your view?
