Pink leotard, just ewwwee.

MyNewtBoobs's avatar

@Pandora Ballet style, or teddy style? Does the shade of pink matter?

midriff shirts. Bleh.

@papayalily Either or. I remember in NYC, passing by a hooker dressed in an all pink leotard. She looked like a giant pig. Its been over 30 years and I still haven’t been able to get rid of that vision. It just wasn’t pretty. A whole pink outfit that goes from head to toe doesn’t look attractive on anyone other than a baby or little child or maybe on a pet. Not made for adults.
Just ewweee.

@Pandora Yeah, a good rule of thumb is that if it looks adorable on a monkey, it will look stupid and/or hideous on a person.

Anything that allows for butt crack exposure wouldn’t be in my public wardrobe. I would hope that unless you are an exquisite model posing for a luxurious photo shoot with exciting fabric in an anything but normal situation,,,that it wouldn’t be in yours either.

I wonder how refrigerator repairmen became the folks we identify with when discussing the ‘butt crack’ populace.

Recently, I had my first experience with an appliance repairman…he was tall, had a great smile, spoke softly, was fee reasonable, talked about his wife in an endearing way.

What was that question again! :)

Pandora's avatar

@MissA Yes, some people need to get off the crack. :D

For some reason I really hate garter belts. It’s just a personal opinion though, I don’t think they’re necessarily tacky or slutty, I just don’t dig the style. To each his own, including me.

Berserker's avatar

Number one. I just can’t stand those straps that go with those…weird undies things. Number two is alright. But sans straps.

MyNewtBoobs's avatar

@Symbeline I understand. I have a pair for holding up thigh-highs, but I would never consider them sexy, just practical.
EDIT: But I do find the second kind sexy, especially if it has a flask tucked into it.

Berserker's avatar

Yeah, I know that’s the point. It actually is convenient, and less annoying than having strapless stockings with rubber insides that make marks on your thighs, but I just can’t stand the look lol.

MyNewtBoobs's avatar

@Symbeline Oh, my thigh-highs have the rubber, they just don’t work. It’s a whole “interview outfit” thing: pantyhose cut off my circulation, and knee-highs don’t come up high enough, and my interview skirt both looks good and is pet-fur resistant, so I’m willing to wear them if it means being comfy and presentable at interviews.

Berserker's avatar

I think most have the inner rubber, but if you want it to work without straps, you’re gonna be itchy and almost sore. I get what you mean though. In such cases, it’s not like anyone sees the straps anyway. (Or rubber rashes.) Stockings piss me off though, cuz one way or the other, you’re gonna end up paying lots for quality shit. I usually wear pants for an interview, in my mind it does have a good professional look. Not that skirts and thihies don’t, they most certainly do; and you’re right, for convenience factor, if you’re gonna style yourself up this way, the straps are probbaly better. But as far as looks go, I’m still all like, ew. XD But then you probbaly don’t have to worry about that part if it’s a formal occasion. Thing is, in the question, it said…especially stuff underneath. XD

@Symbeline I have no idea what this magic fabric blend is that repels cat hair, but all my work pants seem to attract it so much that hours after I’ve rollered them, I’ll be at work, no kitty in sight, and they’ll be covered again. It’s like the pants shed. So for interviews, the ability to get out the door fur-free becomes very, very important. If I didn’t have this one skirt, I’d never wear them.

Berserker's avatar

Hmm…most of my clothes are black, and both my cats are black as well. I still notice it, but maybe not as much as other pet owners would under different circumstances. And yeah rollers; those suck. XD They never seem to work, really. (I find that scotch tape is more effective but…after a few sessions it does mess up your clothes. :/) And it takes too damn long lol.

Boobie Tassles , there is just something about them that screams tacky slut.

rooeytoo's avatar

@Frenchfry -hhehehehe, lurve and I agree, they do scream.

I thought garter belts were supposed to be so sexy, when did that change? (A definite plus about living in the tropics I never need to wear hose anymore.)

Neizvestnaya's avatar

Those minidresses with the neckline that’s open an billowing to the navel.

Lame’ fabric monokinis with plunging neckline open to the crotch.

Lucite “stripper” platform shoes.

Anything “bedazzled” looking.

ucme's avatar

I point blank refuse to wear nipple tassles, who needs em? :¬)

ducky_dnl's avatar

Anything with an animal print desgin.

MyNewtBoobs's avatar

@Symbeline Have you tried using Evercare? There the only ones that aren’t throwing away money, but they really work.

MyNewtBoobs's avatar

@rooeytoo I think it depends on if it’s the first kind or the second kind (of the links I gave). The first was supposed to be practical, and then was made sexy because, hey, why not. The second IS sexy.

MyNewtBoobs's avatar

Nude sexy lingerie (ie teddies, babydolls, corsets, etc). Anything mesh. Teddies, because I think they’re gross.

BratLady's avatar

Skirts that barely cover the butt cheeks and thong panties.
We women spent years picking our outwear out of our cracks and now that’s where some wear them. Not my style.

ducky_dnl's avatar

Ack! I meant design not desgin.*

Let’s see.. I really think that the ‘wife-beater’ tee shirts are tacky, and refuse to wear them.. ever.. also tacky to me are jeans that are skin tight.. although some women may like to see this, I just can’t wear them.. just seems a little weird…! :)

Mike1969's avatar

@Frenchfry That’s hilarious… You gave me a much needed BIG SMILE with your answer.. Thanks!..Mike

Hawkeye's avatar

Me? Hell, I look good in anything. Red Robe, Blue Hawaiian shirt, straw hat.

Rhodentette's avatar

If I’ve seen it on Kim Kardashian, chances are very good that I’m going to consider it tacky/ slutty/ both.
