Top 5 Things a Grown Woman Should Never Wear

 

You may already know about the biggie fashion sins like wearing suntan-colored pantyhose. But did you know that little girl fashions like pigtails and overalls look ridiculous on grown women? But for most of us, there are a few guidelines to what looks good.

 

你可能知道一些时尚禁忌，比如穿棕色的连裤袜。如果成年女性扎麻花辫或穿小女生的衣服，这样会让人觉得你很滑稽。但对大多数人来说，还是需要一些穿衣指南来避免成为别人笑话的对象。

1. Overalls 工作装

Overalls belong on a farm. They don't flatter anyone, and there are much better ways to look down-home sexy (a checked shirt tied at the midriff is a better start).

工作装本应该在农场里穿，但是现在很多人把它穿出时尚的味道。这种衣服挑人，并不是每个人都可以穿出这种乡土气息的时尚味儿。

2. Pigtails麻花辫

Plastic surgery, not pigtails, is the only way to go if you successfully want to shave 20 years off your face: pigtails on anyone well out of their teens just looks like a pathetic attempt at girlishness. A single ponytail, on the other hand, is considered almost universally flattering on women of all ages.

如果你想年轻20岁，整形是唯一的途径。试想一个扎麻花辫满脸皱纹的老女人，肯定会成为别人的笑柄！相反，马尾辫就适合所有年龄段的女性。

3. Knee socks及膝袜子

Oh, you can wear knee socks: just as long as you keep them out of sight under pants. Knee socks with miniskirts are adorable on teen girls and children, sad on real women. Instead, opt for sheer hosiery, opaque tights or fabulous (faux) tanned bare legs.

及膝袜子搭配超短裙很受少女的欢迎，这种打扮超显可爱。但是，如果成年女人这样装扮就不尽人意了。透明的针织袜子和不透明的紧身袜都是成年女人的选择。

4. Tie Dye扎染图案

Unless your child gives you a handmade tie-dye shirt, let the skaters and hippies give this look a try. On the other hand, patchwork pieces -- bags, skirts, hats -- seem to always look adorably bohemian and crafty for anyone.

这种扎染风格的衣服还是让滑冰者或嬉皮士尝试吧。穿这种衣服是很大挑战。相反，拼接风格的衣服很具有波西米亚风格，适合每个人。

5. Rabbit Fur兔毛衣服

If you must wear fur, please at least stick with a mammal that's not likely to wind up as the family pet. And nothing's more ridiculous than brightly colored rabbit fur. A better bet is something wonderful and faux.

如果你想穿皮毛质衣服，千万不要让你的家庭宠物感到紧张。穿鲜艳兔毛衣服是最滑稽了。
