Fashion Police

Every Tuesday and Thursday morning I sit on the same bench in the same hallway at the same time patiently awaiting my Shakespeare class to start. And on these days I often find myself watching the students and professors that walk by on their ways to class. As a consequence of my people watching fascination I often find myself noticing what people are wearing, not surprising, I'm sure. Oh the fashion I witness on this lovely campus, I must preface by saying it's not ALL bad, but let's be honest what my fellow co-eds have in brains they lack for in FASHION sense. So, as a new part of this blog each week I'll be picking one of the many people I witness wandering this hallway alone and tell you about their outfit and why their choice was a bad one. If I'm sneaky perhaps I'll be able to post pictures of the fashion violation. No promises, though.
So, who's this weeks victim? Well, she's a repeat offender with bad hair, horrid shoes and a lumpy look that isn't camouflaged well by her fashion choices. I'm not sure of her name but I am sure she's a professor, I'll endeavor to find her name so those of you who also attend this campus can check out fashion faux pas. I'm sure she's a fabulous professor but if you're going to be standing in front of groups of students everyday. How can you feel confident in your abilities when you look that bad?!
 However, I've failed to tell you about why she's being 'ticketed.' Let's talk about her outfit.
Hair- poofy, dark brown on top, yellowy orange on the bottom. I'll buy her some hairdye. There's nothing worse than two toned hair.
Outfit- Generally a large lumpy black sweater that makes her look bulky. Even on the nice days when it's gorgeous outside she has a different black sweater for each day. And always, always, always, a long polyester skirt that does nothing for the bottom half of her body. Generally about mid calf length in a hideous pattern in strange colors. Despite the fact that her skirt is generally rather long she is ALWAYS wearing black tights and black boots. God forbid she show some skin. I'm surprised she doesn't wear gloves and a ski mask as well. A little skin and less black would really brighten up the woman's wardrobe and probably her life as well.
And that's this weeks fashion criminal. Stay stylish my fellow fashionistas. Until next time.
