I don't know if you'd call it a fashion trend, but false eyelashes need to go now. I've seen some very attractive young women with what looks like dollar store eyelashes on, and it looks horrible. I don't know what inspired this trend, but they always look phony, heavy, and just not good.
You're probably seeing lash extensions. They are all the rage at the moment along with the eyebrow threading.

I'm a man and I would appreciate if women would quit lipstick, or like many of my dates wear lip gloss. I often use lip balm because I'm sure both help moisturize our lips. Many women I've dated brag their little to no use of makeup other than lip gloss. I really like that in a woman.

I'm a bit odd in that I'm unlike most men and realize that body care products are not just for women and gay or metrosexual men. There's a good use for body care products, and my two best face care products came from recommendations from a forum friend (jamminhealth) and a woman I'm dating. (pycnogenol and retinol, respectively)

Lipstick seems so 1950s to me. As a woman, that can't be pleasant to wear it???

Is leather back yet? Like arm and wrist bands?

Also, I kind of miss the hippie days when I'd sew 3/4"-1" braided band to the bottoms (hems) of my jeans. I think the variety and organic look of the hippies look would be fun to bring back.

And leggings....unless you are 12.

Yea, nothing like wrinkly, age spotted shoulders peeking out! ME included!

Stroll through the ladies department at Kohls. The Sonoma department takes you back to the 1970’s ! Yuck. I visit my HS years by doing that.

Agree! Sometimes the less we know, the better.

One thing that I think looks dumb, but is probably not a fashion trend, is men wearing socks and pool slides. I think it is the dumbest look ever.

Another stupid look, to me at any rate, is the flat brim baseball cap.

But, these things don’t affect me in any way, so I don’t spend too much time thinking about them. And I am so old I remember girls putting combs in their bobby socks. And “cool” guys putting their packs of smokes in their rolled up tee shirt sleeves.

In terms of stupid styles, I am so old I remember white patent leather go-go boots.

But yeah, longer tee shirts for women is an improved look for me too.
Seriously, lol. Yes indeed, where does the time go?

Yes, to me they look like old school maternity clothing.
