Clichés

The dictionary definition of a cliché is a saying, expression, idea, or element of an artistic work which has been overused to the point of losing its original meaning or effect, rendering it a stereotype especially when at some earlier time it was considered meaningful or novel.

Uggs

Firstly, I will cover the dreaded... wait for it.... UGGS!
I cannot express my hate for these shoes enough, no offence to the ugg lovers out there but I really, REALLY, hate them. They are boring, scruffy and U.G.L.Y. I just think that they are a lazy person's excuse for not being fashionable or not saving up for a nice pair of shoes!! I did used to wear them, until the general public fell in love with them and then took them over. I know keep a pair as slippers because their one attribute is that they can be (depending where you buy) extremely comfortable.


Treggings/Jeggings

These are jean looking leggings, as with the uggs, I did own a pair of these, from H&M, but I bought them a LONG time ago, I bought them in March last year, when they were extremely unheard of. Now they are in every single shop on the high street and pretty much everyone that owns uggs owns a pair of these, probably from primark.

I think the worst bit of these are the fact that only slim people can get away with them, so for the majority of the population that has a un-skeletal, body;
every lump and bump is revealed under the naked eye. Which is why you should wear a bum-covering t-shirt.

I have seen some girls, with an indiscrete sense of style wearing their treggings with the top band folded over and then a crop top. Fortunately the ones I saw wear slim and had enviously nice figures. But I hate to think it upon someone like myself, I am not so confident when it comes to showing off a figure, well, in that way anyhow.




Chained Bags

These bags are on EVERY single teenagers shoulder, seriously, what's so great about them?? They are boring... However, I am embarrassed to admit that I did buy one, its cream with the chained strap with a big purple paisley bow, I really like the pattern on the bow and was (in my opinion) worth having to put up with the strap, I may see if I can change it. I will put pictures up if I find the camera.

For the second time, I am embarrassed to admit that I own this bag, (above), but I don't use it haha. I bought it a couple of years ago, when I thought it was "cool" yep, I did just say that :)


Hoped you enjoyed reading my list of cliches

Lots of love to you readers,

  3. I have to agree with Uggs and Treggings/ Jeggings and the chain bags and I'm proud to say I never saw the beauty in them so have never owned a pair :)

    As for that last bag which I have owned for nearly two years, I bought it because most people don't know that it's a STAM BAG, now they're in every chav's arms who are oblivious to the fact that the marc jacobs designed the real one! i guess yeah, it's nice but it's getting old now. my handle's tearing apart though :(
    lol, why did you buy the bag if you didn't like it!

  5. I did like it Vicky, sorry is it vicki or vicky?! I have just gone off them since the chavs took them over, I also bought it because I had an obsession with the (as Mariam put it) the square padded thing :)
