Trends you'll be glad to see the back of.

For me it's heavy white soles on lumpy trainers. I used to be able to buy attractive, normal sized trainers with matching or toning soles the same width as my shoe. I don't want to clump around in boat sized shoes with grubby white bases. Nor do I want heels which stick out backwards such a long way that they catch on steps on my way down the stairs.
I used to buy Ecco but even they all seem to have white soles now, or be really awful "granny" styles with rounded toes.

I love everything you hate, Snowberry because that's what's on trend now. Just because we're grannies it doesn't mean we can't be up to date. I'm glad I've still got the face and shape to still wear clothes that are fashionable.

Trust me, I don't believe in dressing my age either.
But there are some things that definitely dontt look good on a 50 plus woman
Cropped tops for one.

People making a 'thing' out of something that really isn't! ??

Low slung trousers for boys are long gone now Nannina! It's all skinny jeans now.

I hate 'wokery' too but as I've NOT worked at keeping my waistline neat, I'm rather fond of boxy shapes and loose fitting clothes, whether or not they are currently on trend.

People whingeing that they don't like a certain style of clothing when these days, there is no need to actually wear it!
30 or 40 years ago, if something was classed as "fashionable" that was all that you could buy, whether you actually liked, or suited it or not!
Now it doesn't matter so much what you wear - it's more a case of what either suits you, or what you feel comfortable in!
Mind you, anything in that 1980s emerald green needs to be hidden and forgotten for good!

Older people, especially women, in baseball caps.
Baseball caps worn sideways or back to front.
People who push shopping trolleys with their elbows!

Caterpillar eye brows and cod face lips.

Young men wearing their trousers with the crutch round their knees and waistband below hips exposing their pants. I don’t know how they keep them up! Remind me of toddlers with an overfull nappy

I love white trainers with dresses

I am all in favour of trainers, I have such painful feet that ordinary shoes are too uncomfortable to wear.
Bootcut jeans have never been out of fashion, I have always been able to buy them in M&S.

You can’t be serious. Jeans with rips and holes look ridiculous on anyone over 21 ???‍♀️

Cold shoulder tops and dresses, jeans with huge rips in them, slug eyebrows, lip fillers, botoxed 22 year olds, arm candy designer dogs as a fashion accessory& not a loved pet, false eyelashes that look like tarantulas. The words she/her at the end of someone’s title or social media handle. Nose rings like a bull would have.

My feet get really uncomfortable in sandals. They get all sweaty and slippery.
I acknowledge that I am quite a sweaty person. I am very heat intolerant, so it must be my body trying to regulate its temperature.
I bloody hate Summer

Glasgo

Vocal fry. People, especially young women who enunciate their words with a harsh, croaky, rasping sound as if they are suffering from a throat infection. Drives me potty!

I'm intrigued.
How do you mean? Can we have an example?

Glasgo oh yes! Not many people have heard of this (I know I had to look it up a couple of years back)

They go particularly weird at the end of sentences, as if they’ve run out of air.

too hot

Oh yes. Fanny.
I will still wear skinny jeans wirh boots in winter. Even if its not on trend anymore.
Because it suits me.
Trainers with dresses I will be binning. Mainly because I don't like the way it looks (appreciate that others like it)
Also because trainers are too got on my feet on a warm summers day.
And I don't like hot feet.

Asymmetric hems on skirts which look so messy with bits hanging down when you put a coat on top. I thought they would go out of style but have now been around for ages.

I agree also about voluminous sleeves. I spent quite a bit on a Sézane cardigan with fairly wide sleeves. It is lovely but I can’t get my coats or jackets on over it as their sleeves are all too narrow. So the cardigan languishes in the wardrobe waiting for the moths to come.

This thing lately whereby online fashion retailers insist on using plus sized models to model things like leggings and sportswear.
As an average sized person I struggle to envisage how it will look on me and end up not buying anything.
I also think the clothes alook bad on models who are too skinny as well.

I wish they would use average models.

I suppose the term ‘trend’ is doing some heavy lifting here.

Some of us must follow trends; while others don’t.

I think that when you are in your late 20s you should have figured out what you like and what suits you.

When the ‘trend’ for trainers and dresses disappears, I will still be wearing them.

Similarly I’m steadfastly loyal to my Uggs, my hair colour and the way I do my makeup.

Sorry, meant for Chewbacca. A new to this.

You must be my twin. Totally agree with all those, particularly the coffee one!
