Die, Trend, Die! The Top Ten Trends of 2008 That Must Die

ETA: New pic. Is this a bowler hat? Apparently Sam's hat wasn't one :(

10. The Bowler Hat
It takes a village (of blond starlets) to ruin a classic.

9. Uggs
The gateway boot. First, it's the Uggs, then comes the jungle juice. Next thing you know, you're knocked up with twins.

8. Celeb Perfumes
Because we've never once wondered what it would be like to smell like Paris or Mariah, and we're not willing to pay them to find out.

7. Gladiator Sandals
Somehow, those weird Renaissance festival people convinced trendy young things to sport their garb. It probably involved some sort of frog potion packaged as a delicate cream blush.

6. Fanny packs
Things we love: Fannypak, the "America's Best Dance Crew" contestants.
Things we loathe: fanny packs, the accessory. Since when is it cool to look like a foreign exchange student at Epcot Center?

5. Sunglasses at Night
Because the guy that wears sunglasses to the club is the same guy that's pushing his demo in your face or hawking some new energy drink.

4. Crop Tops
No one wants to see your belly. And Heidi Montag, no one wants to see your gross husband Spencer, either.

3. Leggings
Cameltoe doesn't look good on anyone. Trust us.

2. High-Waisted Jeans
How bad are these things?

1. The Ubiquitous Scarf
DearLil Wayne, Kirsten and Pete Kevin Jonas, Please put the scarf down and walk away. And that goes for the rest of you, too.

What do YOU think, ONTD? I just chose existing pics on Photobucket. Also, the commentary isn't mine... I think it's pretty terrible, actually. Well, except for that last part :P
Personally, I'm not a big fan of skinny jeans, but that's just me. I prefer my flares/bell bottoms/whatever you call them :P They ARE convenient to wear with boots, though. Otherwise the other jeans get all scrunched up and are uncomfortable. Also: leather boots (too trendy for me) and those hippie headbands.
