Trends you should hate (but actually LOVE)

1. Retro denim
When denim is so bad, it's so good... Double denim, denim dresses, frayed hem denim skirts, patchwork. I. Want. It. All.

P.S. Flares are back.

2. White shoes
Stigma of trailer parks and colouring in scuffs with Tipp-ex - but when paired with boyfriend trousers, good things happen. The more I see it, the more I like it.

3. Metallic leather
So outdated, but so cool!

4. Mirror lens
The trend better suited to scenes in Top Gun, this look has travelled into the blogosphere of certified stylistas.

5. Sliders
Tres Unchic. However, I'm willing to let this slide (ahem) as it looks SO comfortable for the summer heat.
