Just sat in a public place people watching.

Some people look fab wearing shorts and summer clothes.

What are fashion no-nos?

Personally I only ever wear leggings with boots but seen some people look fab wearing them with heels.

Dare I?

biggest fashion rule for me is 'just because they make it in your size doesnt mean you have to wear it'

short shorts for example would look ridiculous on me!!!

Play to your strengths!!

oh and heels with leggings and your legs - winner

I don't really see there are any fashion no nos. I'm not of the opinion that people should confirm to a certain style of clothing, therefore whatever you like goes.

However there are certain things or shops I would never wear or shop in. I would never wear jogging bottoms, especially not with high heels. I wouldn't wear leggings with a short tshirt, I wouldnt wear a pleated t skirt.

I dislike shops like Marks and Spencer for clothes, or BHS, or the majority of clothes in New Look, some thingsfor holidays are ok. I would have to be dead to get me inside Primark, hate it with a passion

Ugg Boots......when the hell are they going to stop making those VILE things? Not only do they look bad to begin with, but EVERYONE I see wearing them ends up walking on the side of the boot instead of the sole...not sexy, not chic.... just horrendous!

Oh I don't know about that. Boob tubes always scream 'access' to me.

But then I am a very, very bad man.

People watching is a great activity and now we have more cafes opening onto the street it gets even better.

My favourite is to sit and guess if anyone around me is on Fab, Informed Consent or to generally perv

As for fashion no-no's, UGG boots are up there, the perennial socks and sandals and the new fad for guys in elasticated bottoms to their trousers...wtf, I lived through the 80's and fashion was not good! Digressing slightly, I used to live in London and the lads used to have one trouser leg up and the other down. I got a blank look when I asked if he wanted to borrow a bicycle clip!

no no's are jeggings!!

shaven heads and tracksuits only make you look like a scally drugdealer!!

muscle men / bouncer types with those wide pants for the gym make you look like a wanker.

worst thing is women of all ages wearing uggs and not picking up their feet and dragging them, drives me mental!!

What are fashion no-nos?

Personally I only ever wear leggings with boots but seen some people look fab wearing them with heels.

Dare I?

I love people watching (and listening in to their conversations lol)

Do sometimes wonder why some people wear certain clothes just because they are in fashion, when they don't suit them or flatter their shape.

Some of the fashion no nos for me are: Ugg Boots

Crocs

Socks with sandals

Wearing shorts with tights and even worse if finished off with Ugg Boots!

Some people clearly cant own a mirror or have any fashion sense. Certain clothes look good on some people and not on others, its just a shame not everyone realises this.

However there has to be something said for having the Balls to wear something hiddeous or maybe its just an obstanant choice that its fashion so i will wear it.

Shoes with track suit bottoms is a def no no lol
