It’s New Year’s Eve, time to reflect on some of the best and the worst fashion trends of 2008.
Best of 2008
Ruffled Blouses
Ruffles came back in a big way – in shoes, handbags, dresses and especially blouses. It was great to see feminine, romantic fashions at the forefront. With all the menswear-inspired designs early in the year, girls could be girls again in ruffles.
Patent Leather Bags
Well really, patent leather anything – shoes, belts and especially bags. Glossy patent leather adds luxury and shine to any outfit. Hopefully patent is big in 2009 as well.
Skinny Jeans
Skinny jeans look hot with everything from knee-high boots to platform sandals. These form-fitting pants aren’t for everyone but body hugging jeans are far better than their baggy counterparts.
Worst of 2008
Maxi Dresses
Blame Angelina Jolie for starting it. Blame the rest of the world for jumping on the bandwagon. These long dresses swallow your body with their flowing silhouettes. I don’t care what anyone says, these baggy, floor-length floral dresses don’t flatter any woman.
Gladiator Sandals
If you visited Shoe Blitz today (as you should everyday!) you probably know how I feel about gladiator sandals. Unfortunately this trend will be back for Spring 2009. Don’t buy them, ladies!
Boyfriend Jeans
I’m not sure why Katie Holmes (or anyone else) thought it was cool to put on a pair of oversized jeans, roll up the cuffs and head to the street. Boyfriend jeans are something you might wear on a camping trip paired with a flannel shirt – they aren’t something you should wear anywhere else.
Happy New Year, Shopaholics!
