Amanda Berg – helping or ruining the style of Gothenburg? - Blog - TrendGiveAfuck

In an article in Swedish free newspaper Metro, Amanda Berg says she will help the less posh Gothenburg with inspiration for other styles. The first quote “why wear one bracelet when you can wear five” sounds promising, but not many lines later she loses many points in her views of how the spring fashion should look like:

1) Sweatpants work in any form.
Comment: yes, if you want to look like a tramp. You don’t have to have any imagination to think what to wear in the morning, and they are easy to take off if someone hands you a penny or two.

2) High-fit shirts shows of your tummy and are great with high-fit jeans!
Comment: Oh no, please… no high-fit trousers! They make anyone’s bum look like it’s on an 80-year old.

3) Strong colours no pastels as usual, but higher contrast and neon.
Comment: Well, why not. But it’s not new.

Closing comment: What about GUYS!?

Americans on the coasts got better style. - Blog - TrendGiveAfuck

As if that would be a surprise. But here is the evidence anyway. Looking at this Google Analytics excerpt, showing our American visitor’s locations we can clearly see that we lack a fan base in the heart of the country.

Maybe we should introduce a new angle to the TrendGiveAfuck concept. How about this RedneckGiveAfuck? I’ve said it before and I say it again – as long as you got style you need nothing else.

Fashion shoe to come - Blog - TrendGiveAfuck

I found this intersting shoe a couple of days ago. Looks like they’ve put together two shoes in this new model.

… well, that was my first thought when I saw it from distance at least. But I’m all up for the idea – the scene has played around with fabrics and colours for a while now, so it’s about time to move on to shapes. I could totally see this doable, so don’t give me shit when it’s a trend next season.
