I'll pass, thanks.


The other day Garance Dore posted an interesting topic to her blog (not unlike her stylish paramour, The Sartorialist): What fashion trends/styles would you NEVER try (or have you tried and were really unhappy with)?

These are my answers:

-Like Garance, I'm not someone whose face is made for short hair. Nor can I pull off blond (that's an assumption, I've never tried and never will).
-Chokers. I know that they were trendy and then became super outdated, but are still something people wear. Not I.
-Hats. I'm sorry, I can't.
-Wide Leg Trousers. You have to be tall and thin to make these work, two things I am not. Though, they do look incredible if you're built for them.
-Rompers. They look adorable on the girls that can pull them off, but I would look like a jerk (though there was a slate grey version from Helmut Lang that I seriously considered).

What about you guys?
