6 fashion trends that need to die in 2017

accreditation

1.Dramatic fringe

We all love fringes on our skirts, shoes and  purses but let's not go for over the top, exaggerated ones. 

2. Fitness trackers

If you want to live a healthier life then drink more water, eat healthy and exercise, but If you want to waste your money on a hideous bracelet that ruins your outfit then get a fitness tracker. Besides no one really cares if you're counting your steps or not.

3. Corsets aka waist trainers

The Kardashians made this trend popular with their constant Instagram posts showing their hour glass figures in their corsets. They are designed to enhance (or rather exaggerate) your figure. It has also been said that they can cause internal organ damage, so no thanks. 

#ad I'm really obsessed with waist training! Thank you @premadonna87 for my new waist shapers! #whatsawaist

4. Bright coloured/patterned tights 

I don’t even know why these are  produced in adult sizes. Whoever thought that they would flatter any human's legs was mistaken.

5. Hip Hugger jeans 

Don't get me wrong, flares are gorgeous but super-low rise hip huggers are not cute at all.

6. Dungarees

Rather go for a jumpsuit, its cuter. Unless you work on a farm.

OOTD ?? #boohoo #ootd #outfitoftheday #outfit #dungarees
