I’m not going to pretend to know much about fashion. I’m the kind of person that puts comfort really high on the list of things to consider when picking clothes. And that, ladies & gentlemen, is what gives me the right to question these pieces of clothing.

1) Sleeveless Sweaters/Hoodies

My secondary school’s official sweater was sleeveless and I distinctly remember it not doing shit for anybody whenever the weather was cold. The worst part is that our principal would whoop the hell out of anyone who wore a sweater that wasn’t the school’s official one. Over a decade later and I still don’t get it. Sweaters should have sleeves. WTF is the point?!

2) Crop top jackets

So the weather was cold enough to warrant wearing a jacket but not long enough to cover your entire torso? Did the cold not extend from your chest and arms to your midriff? Explain!

3) Skirts attached to pants.

I humbly ask the people who wear this to pick a struggle. It’s either one or the either. Can’t be both, dammit!

4) One-sleeved shirts

5) Bandana Tops

How do they stay up? HOW?!

6) Severely Distressed Jeans

Look, if you’re going to wear shit like this, you might as well just wear shorts. These jeans look like someone was mauled by a wild animal in them. Kilode??
