Hot or Not: 2008 Fashion

Hot

The natural look
Looking natural has never been so popular. Times have changed. Not too long ago, people overdosed on eye makeup, lipstick and foundation. Put down that bright burgundy lipstick and pick up a nude tone.

Braided forehead bands
This fashionable trend is a simple but great way to finish off your look. Back in the hippie days, it was a hit, but with a few modern touches it is now back in style.

Skinny jeans
These bad boys have been in style for a while now, and will remain in the section of people's closets where the clothes that ARE actually worn exist.

Oversized purses
Phone? Check. Lip gloss? Check. My house? Check. Oversized purses are not only extremely fashionable, but greatly needved by girls who carry their lives over their shoulders.

High waist bottoms
Whether they are shorts, jeans, or a skirt, this look is very figure flattering. Pair it with a sexy blouse, and you have your party outfit for the upcoming weekend.

Feathers
Feathers can be worn on your bangle, dress and much more. As long as you don't over-do it with them, you'll be guaranteed to look like you've just stepped out a magazine.

Flared jeans
This look is not only for hippies. Wear these with some of your highest heels, and your outfit will be complete.

Not

Over accessorizing
I'm not saying that accessories aren't great, because they are. But don't drown your look in them. Overdoing it can ruin a masterpiece.

Shockingly bright colour
The super bright colours in your wardrobe should have stayed in the back of your closets. Going for bright but soft colours is the perfect move to make, looking at the sun isn't.

Abstract art prints
This is a very dangerous look because the crime of having your outfit too busy is common. Many people took this look and ran with it, but a lot of those people ran in the wrong direction.

Throw-back jerseys
Ok..ok. I know what you're thinking. Random? But believe it or not, many people still rock these. Such a big no-no. These should be burned.

Crocs
I need to have a serious talk with whoever started this trend. They may be comfortable and convenient, but they are the ugliest thing that has ever walked this earth, literally.


Shutter shades
The cheap, plastic, window blinds look needs to go. Sun glassed are supposed to be used to block out the sun, not make you look like you stole someone's blinds and decided to wear them on your face. Thanks to Kanye West, they are popular.

Grillz
People are still wearing these disgusting things. It makes you look like you have bad breath.
