Today's Style

Islandqueen1 — Sat, 09 Mar 2019 18:22:55 GMT

I am so, so sick of the style that has been torturing me for the past few years. Ugly prints, baggy, non coordinating colors/prints, sloppy, high-low tops, shark bite,tops half in and half out. Ankle pants? Non of this attractive for a woman, maybe a teen that is trying to be an individual or make a statment. But none of it is for a woman that wants to look nice.

@Islandqueen1Nothing much wrong with anyone - we all get to choose and we're are so fortunate to have a very wide selection of products in this country from which to choose.

BTW- I never feel wrong when I wear my ankle pants . I'm quite sure I started wearing them long before I ever saw them on the Q. How about Bloomingdale's in 2001? They're not all that new.

Welcome to the Fashion Board.

We all want to look nice. There are so many choices that we have now to look our best - and those include many things that are on your list.

Hope you find things that you like and you look great in. Hopefully, nobody criticizes your fashion choices.

USpring is almost here...time for many to drag out the most hideous look of all...baggy Capri pants with athletic shoes...can’t stand it! You can lecture if you like...but we are all entitled to our opinions....am criticizing the look...not the person who wears it....

kn a better note, am happy to see some tops actually being sold as tops and not tunics...tunics come down almost down to my knees....ridiculous!

Problem is: As you stated there is a selection....no, not really anymore. Especially on tv shopping chanels.

Oh boy another bash the current styles and the people that wear them thread. How about you wear what you like let others do the same without making snotty social judgments.

Not naming any names...just giving an opinion. Isn't that what this is all about? I cannot find anything presentable on tv shopping chanels. THAT is my opinion. Didn't put anyone down...just my opinion. I am not able to shop for lengthy periods of time. I want something that looks neat, professional. Not to be found on tv.

@Islandqueen1 I wear shark bite tops, ankle pants and prints you might not like and I look absolutely fabulous in them all. The shark bites are from a while back and are getting ready to go, but you should see how good they all look on me!

What I don't wear because I'm getting older? Jeans and t-shirts with something written on them. I've gone mostly to non-jean pants, capris and ankle pants in the summer; chinos and such in the winter. Worn with nice t-shirts, button down shirts or sweaters, and many times with a jacket over one of these.

@Islandqueen1 That’s why I purchase most of my clothing at the mall.

@Islandqueen1. Why are you here posting and obviously browsing since you can't stand the merchandise? Seems like your time would be better utilized if you'd get in your car and head to the mall.

I'd say you're putting down everyone who shops here. With the variety of merchandise QVC carries, there's something wrong with someone who can't find anything to like.

@Islandqueen1 I'm sorry you're being ridiculed. I agree with your post. There are some awful "fashions" out there.

Have never walked behind a woman with the shark hem, that her behind did not look huge. Sorry, except for Amy which looks good in everything.

We all have likes and dislikes in fashion. Personal style is just that - personal. I actually think there is more variety out there for women than ever before.

Sometimes when a certain style is trending it can be difficult to find something without that trend, but I just have to look a bit harder and shop from retailers that carry more of the styles I prefer.

Tortured? Oh boy you'd be in pain if you hung with me...love color, some prints, ankle - crop pants, tunics, eazy breezy oversize tops & never tuck all the way in. I'm not sloppy, I dress causal everyday & I need to be able to move volunteering at hospitals but if I have to dress up for an occasion I do. Everyone has a style they prefer...enjoy.

@crackster Well sorry you haven't walked behind me. I look wonderful! All my friends tell me so.

How rude. As I mentioned I cannot shop for very long periods of time. So please quit being a bully. You are totally out of order.

I am sorry you are feeling bullied, at times when you post on here you are subjected to others comments

The OP is not being bullied. She mocked women for liking certain styles and got called out on for being rude. I don't understand why some of you can't express your thoughts without making fun of others. But if it makes you feel better and superior because you don't wear ankle pants and sharkbites, so be it.

@Islandqueen1 ,

Of course your opinion is valid, it’s your opinion to have and express. But so are the opposing opinions that have responded.

But tossing out the “bully” term? It’s all in how you presented your ideas. You said, “But none of it is for a woman that wants to look nice” was a comment that probably drove 99% of the opposing posts here. So it may come as a surprise that not every woman wants to dress exactly the same way as any other woman, and they can still look quite beautiful in their style.
