Clothing No No's

    Pighead is very pass remarkable and can often be seen strutting down Grafton St throwing out snide comments about peoples fashion sense.Sometimes they hear me and get angry but eventually they realise i'm right and i'm only trying to help them.Tough love if you please.
    Now Pighead realises hes a big hit with the ladies and he doesnt want that to change any time soon so I urge you all to not get offended by my Clothing No No's:
    I HATE the boots over your jeans thing. And I think the longer your boots are, the stupider it looks.If you insist on the Jeans Tucked Into Boots thing, the boots need heels, or you're just going to look stumpy. Stumpy :mad:

    I can't stand it when you girls have the top of your thongs or whatever on show. I mean okay if you don't realise it but when you have it showing on purpose, Pigheads getting his wallet out and is asking how much you charge for a half hours service.

    And the FCUK tshirts they say things like 'fancy a FCUK' 'great FCUK' 'FCUK you Pighead' etc, its not big and its not clever. its just stupid.

    Last but definitely not least is coloured denim (i.e. black, white or even worse, pink jeans).Anything but navy/blue makes your arse look big and is not at all pleasing to the eye

    Skangers wearing pink tracksuit bottoms when they're about a size 20... ewwww. Usually worn with huge hoop earrings. :eek:

    Those stupid skater shoes on girls.

    Pighead obviously doesnt know much about "style" as the boots over jeans thing is extremely in fashion for ther ladies. I agree with you it looks horrific though.

    And anything with FCUK on it should be incinerated. Garbage.

    short sleeve shirts( not T-Shirts ) on guys , definitely a fashion Faux Pas

    This just goes to show what morons these people are for following a trend. I also think the boots thing is horrid, especially with those mingin' ugg boots. What kind of crackhead would follow along, lemming-like, with such a mass display of bad taste?

    Have you got a problem with comfortable shoes?

    It's true. It's hard beat skater shoes for comfort.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,878 ✭✭✭Rozabeez


    They are the comfiest shoes going, I don't think they look stupid unless you customize them...like I did...O_o DUCK LACES.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,352 ✭✭✭funky penguin


    ...........you killed ducks and laced your shoes with them?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,878 ✭✭✭Rozabeez


    That was the plan...untill I came accross a pair of blue laces with little yellow ducks printed on them..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,352 ✭✭✭funky penguin


    Oh right....makes more sense. Stops teh blood I suppose.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 777 ✭✭✭dRNk SAnTA


    Yeh but comfort isn't always cool. I agree with pighead 100%.

    Gotta add in something else though. You know the kinda grey pajama-like bottoms girls half the girls in UCD are wearing at the moment. where they've cut the bottom of them into flares, and have them rolled a bit at the top. They look like something you'd see a bum going around in. In this day and age its a real shame to see hot girls looking so ****. :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,846 ✭✭✭Le Rack


    DC's are the comfiest things for feet in the world!

    Pighead you have you're fashion sense right, well, done!

    Jeans in boots, EUCH! and especially any boots with fur! What the fcuk!

    No one wants to see you're ass or whatever is supposed to be covering it, pull up your pants! Builder bums on girls are not nice! *me glares at girl in class*

    FCUK t-shirts are gay, smarter comments, like a plane black t-shirt with small white print across the chest saying "Take a harder look" or something is far more entertaining!

    PINK AND WHITE jeans should burn in hell! You expect to hear a "beep, beep, beep" when you see a woman wear these!

    Velour (fake velvety stuff) tracksuits, or in fact all tracksuits but especially the pink velour ones!

    Really cheapy nylon clothes, nylon rarely if ever works.

    Big hoopy earrings, of the knacker style or plane, NO!

    Hair permantly up in a high pony tail, pulled back to the last.

    Shell toe shoes!

    Anything made by a sporting goods company!

    Fat pants 7 euro mens department in Dunnes available in grey navy and black.I love them.i'm wearing a navy pair right now in a mens large.They're huge i'm 5ft2 and they are like 5 inches too long and i'm a size 10/12 and the waist is I'd say around 16/18.if you haven't worn them then you can't judge they are the comfiest trousers ever!!!

    Guys just seem to be against anything remotely comfortable on girls! Skate shoes and uggs are so comfortable. Tracksuit bottoms too. I'm not going to wear high heels and miniskirts every day-or ever for that matter. I don't own a pair of heels because I don't want to get sore feet from just walking.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 779 ✭✭✭Flashling


    I feel a kinship with pighead, I also pass alot of remarks on peoples clothes...within earshot :)...sometimes they make it too easy though! Especially with fat man pants tucked into uggs, it's a sad thing...My personal fashion hate is the Female Mullet, as seen in hairdressers everywhere. It wasn't a good look twenty+ years ago, IT'S NOT A GOOD LOOK NOW.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,277 ✭✭✭✭Rb


    they are the comfiest trousers ever!!!

    Amen to that!

    Are jeans not comfortable? Tracksuit pants look ugly imo.

    with regards to shoes/runners i'll take comfort over "cool" anyday.

    that's why i wear skate shoes 99% of the time

    Jeans are the last thing I'll think of wearing when I'm getting dressed tbh.
    Much prefer to wear chinos,cargo pants,cords, o'neills or sweats, they just seem alot more comfortable.I still wear jeans quite often though.

    TKD pants are great :)
    *is wearing my spare pair at home now*

    Is that not incredibly annoying, having 5 inches of tracksuit bottom dragging around under your feet?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    Skater shoes are just horrible. Sorry ladies. My sixteen year old sister recently customised a pair with mismatching laces, and spent hours telling me. Arrrrrgh. Also included are any form of white runner worn in a fashion context.

    Tulip skirts, which are making a bit of a comeback can be a bit odd. The jeans tucked into boots thing can work on certain ladies, but when I see it, all I can think is "Where is your horse, or husky dogs?" (depending on whether they're leather boots or uggs)

    gyspy skirts. (Thanks be to god they're dying out)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Hmm... I'm a little dissapointed that this is more mild peeves than discussing some serious no-no's as it were. I often quite like it when women are wearing what would be considered faux pas, such as leg warmers. Damn, leg warmers look damn.

    Although, I will say that the sooner that god damn FCUK ****e and the oh-so-hilarious spin offs like FCEK are dead and buried, the better.

    I agree, though they've got their own stores(imagine that, whole stores full of that shi'ite ) which apparently are doing quite well so they'll be around for quite some time to come I'd imagine.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭Nightwish


    ridiculous t shirts guys wear with "controversial" slogans emblazoned on them, as inspired by the FCUK generation. they're just attention seeking and childish to me. also why oh why did certain hairdressers attempt to bring back the mullet...on girls? its awful.
    oh well how about, I just hate fashion in general.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,186 ✭✭✭✭Sangre


    So what if they're comfortable?
    Im wearing a comfy dressing gown at the moment, that doesn't mean I'd go out in it.

    Often made worse by the accompanying grungy skater look...blegh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,518 ✭✭✭✭dudara


    Actually, I've started to see girls walking around with baggy tracksuit pants tucked into boots. What an absolutely minging look!!!

    The comofortable argument doesn't work for me. Not when it makes you look like a walking baglady


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 122 ✭✭EvilPixieOne


    The skank look is in right now; baggy tracksuit pants in boots, orange face, messed up, straw-like hair. No the one that really gets to me is the girls in pyjamas all over town in the middle of the day. Someone needs to tell them to wake up or something!

    UGG are out of FASHION!! NEWS FLASH!! They went out over a year ago! SO why oh why are most the girls I know still wearing them?? With ugly man pants! I'm all for comfort for a day perhaps but other than that looking good is important! Whatever happened to cool fashion? Is it just in the magazines now? I for one am a fashion junkie! Not fashion of stupid dublin people who think man pants look hot but rather the runways of Paris, New York and London! Bring back class girls! Be an individual, create your own look and for god sake bin those ugly uggs!! You should be arrested for wearing them!!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    I seen I'd say the guts hundred pairs of Uggs going about yesterday on these D4 wannabes. I think they look crap, they do nothing for the girls in question.

    "Prejudice attitudes"? Prejudice against what exactly? Though it's funny you mumble some half-baked point about jumping to conclusions, yet I never said "Dumb bimbo" or anything of the sort.
