pretty ugly

When it comes to fashion I have no backbone.
I read about the newest style craze in a magazine...I think "That's horrid...I see it on a blog...I see it on another blog...I think "Hmm, not sure"...I see it on someone...I see it on someone else...I think "I have to have it. NOW!"

Someone else suffering from this condition?
Whatever I deem ugly first, as soon as it has reached the fashion hall of fame at least for a while, I want to have it.
This time: white Arizona Birkenstocks.
I love Birkenstocks and spend pretty much my entire summer in them now.
But the white ones always seemed only appropriate for health care workers.



Well, when I saw fake ones on offer at Aldi this week I had to grab a pair (the last one! Seems I'm not alone...).
And now I look at them and find them wonderful...wonderful and ugly but nevertheless cool.

I think that's what you call a fashion victim.

Let me know: any trends you classed as ugly first and then fell for shortly after?


Think I will wear them to London first...not sure Wiesbaden is ready for them yet...

  1. Bei Schlappen komm ich nicht aus meiner Haut, die werden mir nie gefallen (hab es jetzt mehrfach versucht ;)). Aber bei Handtaschen bin ich so ein Opfer... erst fand ich Longchamp Le Pliage und Liebeskind so blöde und inzwischen finde ich Longchamp einfach nur praktisch und habe selbst bei Liebeskind ein wirklich umwerfendes für mich maßgeschneidertes Modell gefunden. Ach und Nerdbrillen. Fand ich so panne. Auch dass sie jeder hat. Aber als ich gerade eine Neue braucht..... nun, der Rahmen ist auch ziemlich wuchtig ;) Die Liste kann ich bei näherer Überlegung noch sehr viel weiter führen... :D

  2. some stuff just needs getting used to... but if i dislike something strongly it usually stays that way (leggins are never going to be ok outside of gyms). for those shoes - looks like the ladies just know how to wear them? i think for a lot of items it just depends on how you wear it (in what combo etc) :)
