u can't touch this

or maybe you wouldn't want to...

okay, so there have been all these throw-backs to the 80s going on recently. some aren't so bad--I mean, I love Carebears and Strawberry Shortcake, though I do wish they'd teach the chick-a-dees a history lesson and let them know that they've been around for a while, but okay fine, fine. they're cool. And I wish Jem would come back. and I heart jelly shoes. but moving on...

WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE?

apparently they are called zouave pants, after the baggy pants worn by French infantry troops in the 19th century. and the look vaguely familiar to me...

I'm pretty sure even MC Hammer himself does not want to see any girls wearing these. Ew. (and if you happen to own a pair and happen to think they're cute, then please feel free to prove me wrong in my assessment of these alarming zouave pants. what the hell does zouave even MEAN?)

something less fashion-oriented soon. promise.

What in the world!?!?! Those are horrendous! Even British girls aren't wearing those and they wear bunny ears out to clubs! Fashion??
