Honestly, the last decade was very good for fashion. We saw the rise of young men wearing their actual pants-size. Women were encouraged to wear dresses that made them look like women and not like Janet Reno. But there were some casualties.



1. Skinny Jeans. You're either skinny and wearing jeans, or not. Don't make it the pants' decision.



2. I am not the first, but I hope I'm the last to point out that the name says it all: Uggs.

4. I don't have anything bad to say about the Twilight world and the rise of tween culture that happened last decade. The only thing that did was make a gaggle of middle-aged women think that being a teenager is somehow not awkward, embarrassing, or boring. There's nothing wrong with something that gets thousands of non-readers to pick up a book (with the exception of Scientology). It's probably a lot healthier a fantasy to inhabit than whatever we were doing in the nineties before Harry Potter came along. That's all. No judgement here.

5. Just kidding. Vampire-style is hideous. It's like the Ed Hardy of culture.

6. Also, hip teenagers? What on earth will you have to strive for if you're never cooler than your facebook status in ninth grade? When you're done dancing around in a circle, why don't you yank those sparkling shoes off your feet and get out there and mow the lawn so you guys can buy some more sunglasses, Mikey.
