Trashy?
So I have a few posts to catch up on, but the first one I want to discuss is Juicy.... Now I must say that when I was in 8th grade I was desperate for a cool Juicy, Velour gym/pajama concoction. These days when I see people wear the whole thing together I get quite a sick feeling. There is just something about that material that kind of makes me queasy.
One of the the worst cases of Juicy I have ever seen was when my brother and I were on a flight to Tokyo. We ended up being on the same flight as Jon Bon Jovi! We found ourselves chatting to him, (since I'm a singer), and he offered us tickets to his concert! Now most of you would think this was pretty cool but all I can remember of him was his forest green, tight, velour, flared juicy tracksuit (similar to the one below but Much tighter!). It was Not a good look.

Another of the Juicy failures was of course involving our beloved fashion disaster, Britney (bless her). For her wedding to K-Fed, Brit Brit had all wedding party dress up in Barbie Pink Juicy ensembles.

Besides the sweats, they also have some fairly questionable velour handbags and pastel colored day wear such as this Striped Keyhole Romper.
Trendy?
Although I have pretty much just torn the brand apart (sorry Juicy!) I did actually scour through the site and stores and find a few winners! First of all this Lurex Straw Daydreamer bag is super cute and I would take this anywhere.
I also discovered this trendy Smoked Utility Romper, that can be a great day to night outfit. Team it up with some flats or wedges and beads in the day, then throw on some stilettos and big earrings for night.

There is also the fact that many of you may totally disagree with my dislike of the velour outfit.. I mean it is worn by hundreds of celebrities so it must have some kind of appeal!
This time though, in my opinion, looking at the overall picture Im going to say its more trashy than trendy!
I would love to to know what you think.
Juicy Couture- Trendy or Trashy???

ReplyDelete2) OMG I HATE JUICY MORE THAN YOU CAN EVER IMAGINE. My friend Kim used to work there and I'd tease her because I hated it so much.
