Working at a university gives me some insight into the oddities of college fashion. My conclusions . . . #1 I totally don't understand the fashion choices of these kids, and #2 I am, thus, officially old. Hey, I remember being in college and wearing jammie pants to class. Today, jammie pants have been replaced by over-sized sweatpants. I get. You're in college, you want to be comfortable, and you don't always want to dress like an adult. 'Nough said. But can someone explain one major trend to me? Tie dye.
Tie dye is ugly! It wasn't attractive in the 60s. It wasn't attractive in the late 90s, when I was in high school and made a tie dyed t-shirt in art class. And it still isn't attractive. Somebody explain the appeal!
On a similar note, I also don't understand the re-emergence of neon colors, the existence of insanely short shorts (those cannot be comfortable to sit in!), or wearing bedroom slippers outside instead of shoes.
