Men and women have never seen eye to eye on fashion. Getting dressed for the opposite sex is not necessarily every woman’s goal when getting ready in the morning; in fact, most women choose their clothing for themselves or other women. Not that it really makes a difference to us, but we’ve asked around anonymously what it is that women wear that men despise the most.
Don’t worry, ladies, we’ll hate on the men on Monday.
1. Clip-on extensions
“Do you notice that men always find a way to touch the back of your head? This is not a coincidence. We are simply checking to see if you have extensions. The worst is when your fingers get caught in a woman’s hair or when you can see the extensions and it’s like two different heads.”
“Extensions are trashy. Your hair knots up in the back, you can’t run your fingers through it, you look like a wet house cat. Messy hair is sexy, but nothing is a bigger turn off than when a woman’s hair is all knotted with extensions.”
2. Too much eye make-up
“Too much eye make-up looks so stupid. It looks like you’re trying too hard and can actually just look frightening… like you’re going bite someone. Don’t ever do that again.”
3. Self tanner
“I don’t know a single guy that likes a woman who looks orange. The smell is also terrible and gets all over your sheets.”

4. High-waisted jeans
“You really have to have a good body to pull off high-waisted jeans. A man enjoys a nice ass, so if you are doing anything to change its shape for the worse, you are just committing a sin.”
5. Uggs
“Uggs are ugly. They make you look like trash, like you woke up and didn’t care to get dressed in the morning. I like a woman who takes pride in what she wears and how she presents herself.”
5. Flared jeans
“Flared jeans make you look like a poorly dressed cowboy from the ’70s. There is nothing attractive about that. Women need to dress for their bodies.”
“Don’t wear Lululemon flares. Ever.”
6. Harem Pants
Harem pants remind me of a diaper. The only possible woman that could pull them off is a malnourished model type, and even then it’s still not a look I’m into.”
7. Flip-flops
“Unless you came from the salon, you should not have flip-flops on. Nothing is polished or put together about flip flops… and the slapping sound they make when you’re walking – ugh.”
8. Too much foundation
“The goal is to make it look like you’re not wearing make-up. A cake face is my worst nightmare. The worst is when a girl does her face and you can see the line on her chin; not to mention, it gets my clothes and pillow dirty.”
9. Timberlands
“Women should have nice feet and nice shoes. I like shoes that are feminine, not shoes that make it look like you are going to a construction site.”
10. Wedges
“Wedges were made to stop a door from closing, nothing else. They’re awful, thick and big. They remind me of an aunt hanging out in a bingo hall smoking. Even those wedge sneakers are a turn off. If you want something comfortable, just wear flats. Don’t worry about your height. Short women make us feel manly.”
11. Fake long nails
“Long, fake nails are terrible. Take them off, they get in the way. How can you possibly be a productive woman if you have huge nails? It means that you’re pampered and not getting things done.”
12. Showing too much skin
“If you’re going to the bar and you are wearing stilettos and a dress, I feel like I’m not going to be able to have fun with you. Don’t be shy to wear jeans and a t-shirt. Showing too much skin makes it seem like you are asking for attention. Clothes can be sexy.”
