I am pretty adventurous fashion wise. I’ll honestly wear anything just to see what it’s like. Although, I am a firm believer that anyone can pull anything off if they have that fierce, va va voom, confidence, most girls would agree that not every hot trend is flattering on every single shape and size.
I’ll be honest and say I have tried most of these trends, some were hits, some were misses, and some were disasters. We’re certainly not poking fun at the people who wear them, but the Gurl staff agreed: if we tried to wear most of these outfits we’d be LOL’ed out of the office.
Here are 16 celeb fashion trends that are out to get the Gurl Staff.
Rompers [Cherly Cole]

You might, possibly, maybe . . . look like a giant baby.
Neons [Katy Perry]

I hear from Gurl Editor Julie, if you’re pale your skin will reflect any neon color you wear. That’s like, neon pink dress, neon pink face–um, neon pink alien.
Halfsies Hair [Cassie]

Do you have the confidence to pull this off? Yeah, I don’t.
Platforms [Nicki Minja]

I cannot even wear wedges. These are a DEATH TRAP.
Wide Leg Pants [Katherine Heigl]

These look really heavy, sort of goofy, and like they’ll slow you down. It’s not the 1970s’ anymore and if I am going to catch the ice cream truck I need to be as aerodynamic as possible.
Big Floppy Hats [Vanessa Hudgens]

We could go into the unfortunate tragedy of this entire outfit, but I’ll just say this: I cannot wear hats. I am pretty sure if I shaved my head it would be shaped like a giant cube.
Crop Tops [Miley Cyrus]

Damn, Miley, you’re killing it. When I wear these I just
kill it.
Dead. Over.Thick Eyebrows [Lily Collins]

I happen to love thick, luscious eyebrows. Too bad for me when I don’t tweeze I look really, really angry.
Over-the-forehead Headbands [Paris Hilton]

There’s nothing wrong with looking a little Bohemian, but unless you have super long hair (which I don’t) you look kind of doofy.
High-Waisted Shorts [Miley Cyrus]

I’ve never seen anyone pull these off, unless they had legs for days. These just make us shorties look stumpy.
Patterned Leggings [Shenae Grimes]

My full thighs, just look fuller. My short legs, just look shorter. My legs look like pegs, people.
Peplums [Michelle Williams]

Why would I want my waist and hips to look giant?
Harem Pants [Vanessa Hudgens]

Giant hips
again.
Grey Hair [Tavi]

Tavi is basically the only person on the planet who can pull this off. Me, on the other hand, I’d rather not look like an old lady until I am old lady, I’ll have plenty of time then.
Pointy Shoulders [Kim Kardashian]

I don’t feel compelled to look like a Disney Villain, though I understand the appeal.
Gladiator Sandals [Katy Perry]

If you’re short, get ready to look shorter.

Pretty much agree about the high-waisted shorts.
If someone tells you you look good in them, they are either lying, they hate you, or they’re blind.
Hit the nail on the head with every style. Horrible…every one. The worst is a tie between the haircut that says “I’m not sure if I want the be a man or a woman,” and the hiked up Urkel pants. There’s not a female on the planet that can look anywhere remotely close to good sporting either one. The crazy thing is that you could add about 30 more hideous styles out there right now. Fashion is easily at its all time low. Guys included. Halloween is only once a year…
Whatever. My head is partially shaved, and I LOVE it. It’s not for everyone, but I think it looks great on me. Those boots Nikki is wearing looks like Demonias, or maybe New Rocks. I have pairs of each. They’re actually REALLY comfy and not at all hard to walk in. Wedges and heels are hard to walk in because your foot is not level, but platform boots are just your foots normal position, but raised up.
You can’t possibly dis someone’s eyebrows! Nature gave her those eyebrows, it’s not like she painted them like that!
But… she didn’t diss her eyebrows….
It’s Cheryl Cole, not Cherly, by the way
Whoever wrote this.. Needs to actually come outside and realize everything on this list (although most can’t pull off half shaved hair) is something that a lot of people can pull off. And I thought that this website was about making you feel confident about your body, but it’s just telling you that you can’t pull it off because you’ll look fat, or you’ll look ugly, or something. I waisted 3 minutes of my life reading an article telling me that I’m not good enough to pull things off that others can.
The article was about how the Gurl staff isn’t confident enough to wear these clothes, not about shaming the people wearing them in the photos or who ever else wears them. Sorry, if that wasn’t clear in the intro.
after reading your comment i totally see your point and agree with it 100% but as i was reading it i really didnt think about me, i thought about some shy girl or someone just trying to be funny. Most of this just made me laugh at how ridiculous this article was and how it reminded me of my crazy friend
While some of these comments are funny or entertaining, and some of the trends are pretty bad (in my opinion), I really think that this goes against the image the Gurl.com works to maintain. If we’re all about self love accepting our body and it’s shape the way it is naturally, I don’t think this article supports that. After reading it, I felt less than stellar that I owned rompers, floppy hats, and gladiator sandals when I’m only 5 foot. While this article wasn’t offensive, I don’t think that it was supportive either.
some are actually really nice indeed
kim kardashian does not look ugly at all 
You and you’re staff probably rock these and don’t even know it. Have some confidence and just own these pieces. You sound like you’re over thinking. The flaws you see, others probably don’t.
I love rompers, crop tops, harem pants, gladiator sandals, peplums, high waisted shorts, patterned leggings, wide leg pants, and floppy hats! I’m 5’3, which is relatively short I guess. I just don’t care about my height!
gladiators are adorable! and I love neon colors.
I thought this post was really funny and acccurate. I do like the floppy hats and crop tops but your comments were great.
i actually wear highwaisted shorts and have been complimented various times & i am pretty average heighted, not too tall or too short.
I agree with most of these but i am loving the gray hair, wide leg pants and platforms personally. although i have also come to accept that i am way fashionably impaired so there is that :p
This article is just awful. I almost hate the person that wrote it
When I saw this, I assumed I would be looking at some horrible outifts. I actualy find a lot of these really cute, and I hate seeing comments like “Giant hips again.” Neither Vanessa or Michelle have giant hips, and this definitely an extremely negative article, especially for people with a negative body image. Just because these trends don’t work on the author, doesn’t mean they don’t work on you. Keep being trendy, ladies! (:
I agree just with the Peplums and the halfsie hair. The others, simplily can look better if you know how and what to choose.
I actually love crop tops and I have kinda thick eyebrows…
also thick eyebrows. those are awesome. I hate when i get my eyebrows waxed, tell them just to clean them up and they freaking arch them. i look at my face and i’m all, ” nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”
I love rompers -_- I like, the short ones, not like the one that are like pants.. :p
