FASHION DON'TS #2

Hello!

It's time for Fashion Don'ts part 2, if you haven't seen part 1 you can find it here.

My first item is this Oriental Midi dress from Topshop. Recently, I have seen more longer style dresses coming back into fashion, but the pattern on this is too much. Being able to pull this off would be a miracle because the contrast of patterns on the dress looks too crowded, the black and white stripe patches clash with the oriental pattern, and the red beams going horizontally down the dress ruin the original pattern. In addition, what could you style this with?! A necklace would just make this outfit more havoc, and it would be hard to find a pair of shoes to match. It's a shame, because in my opinion I think the dress would've been an interesting, unique piece without the added patches and beams.
 
The next item is a V London White Butterfly Button Blouse from New Look, on sale for £19.99. The blouse half isn't too bad, but I have no idea why the button half was added because it really doesn't look right. The bottom half looks out of place, and doesn't do anything for the top at all. It looks extremely uncomfortable to wear as the bottom bit is fitted, and would sit in the middle of the stomach, and that would make me feel compacted into the top. Maybe it's just me, but I wouldn't be willing to pay £19.99, sorry New Look.

 My last and final item are these wolfpack shorts from Batoko. Batoko isn't a well known brand, I found out about it from Instagram and they do really quirky clothing on their website, however some of the shorts are too tacky- like these ones for example. In my opinion, these are over the top with the wolves and studs on, and I would be clueless on what to wear these with. The shorts are £80.00 which I think is a ridiculous amount for a pair of shorts with pictures of wolves on and a few studs, sorry Batoko but these aren't worth the money.


If anyone owns these clothing items, or has a liking towards any then don't take offense as it's just my opinion which doesn't matter.
