Most annoying style-related adjectives / phrases? - Page 2

Bironi bologna

"Bohemian"
"High armholes"

Avant garde

Maybe more fashion-related than style-related, but when any designer describes their style as "edgy" I want to punch them in the face.

Fierce

"Classic with a twist"

Old SF = Amjack. I don't really see that one very much anymore Current SF = sprezz

"diva"

Alpha as fuck... actually scrap that, I like that one

"Wear it in good health"... for some reason that grates me everytime

and +1 on fierce... I've only seen it used on second rate reality shows. If I heard it IRL violence could occur

What do you propose to use instead? I'm not a big fan of it, but I use it a lot because I have a tough time coming up with alternatives.


OMG yes. Every designer must have used this phrase at least once in the past month.

"nip the waist"

"sleek"

To 'rock' as a verb, as in "you are really rocking that tweed jacket, Spoo!"

And 'sick' when used as a compliment, as in "that is a sick tie you are wearing, Bleachboy."

Fuck right off!

brah! as in Bro, as in Brother. No good evah!

Trad

Steez is 90s hip hop slang for 'style.'
not quite sure when it got co-opted by bloggers, but i wish they'd ease up a bit.
