However original we’d all like to proclaim ourselves to be, celebrities are definitely influential when it comes to deciding what’s trendy and what’s not. Since we are also so critical of everything that celebrities do (and wear), it’s a given that they will often have a few not-so-trendy mishaps. Here’s to all those moments where celebrities have made us go “oh noooo” instead of “oo-la la.”

Faux hair colors: First there was Pink, who sported neon pink tresses for quite some time after she first stepped onto the music scene. Because her hair color coincided with her name though, she gets a pass. What’s Rihanna‘s excuse? I’m willing to bet any amount of money that no redhead is truly that red.

Exotic Animal Ownership: So I know Michael Jackson was the proud owner of a few exotic animals that lived peacefully in the backyard of his amusement park — I mean home. But now that Beyoncé is taking wild hyenas for a walk in her latest video “Girls Run The World,’ I’m starting to wonder, do I need to finally invest in that koala bear I’ve been eying for my Brooklyn apartment now? I sure hope not.

Bleached eyebrows: Lady Gaga’s face is missing something on Rolling Stone’s latest cover. What is it? Eyebrows would unfortunately be the correct answer. Okay so maybe she just bleached them. But there’s no way in hell I’d be willing to rock the Whoopi Goldberg-eque look of a browless face. Would you do it?

Camel Toe: Khloe Kardashian caused some instant eye covering and eyebrow raising recently when she was photographed wearing a stylish-yet-far-too-tight pair of red skinny jeans that revealed a detailed profile of her womanhood. Let us hope that the camel toe will forever be a no-no!

The list of celebrity trends we simply cannot stand goes on and on. Check out some more celebrity oh-no’s we hope will be short lived here.

Much like my post dedicated to numerous images of celebrity camel toes, there are some pictures that sometimes you’d just rather not see. But you’ve gotta admit, sometimes curiosity gets the best of you and other times you just need a really great link to gross out your friends or, better yet, scare off that ex-hookup who’s been sending you one too many love e-mails a day.

Like this link to basically a graphic explanation as to why clowns are often so feared. Or to the reasoning behind just why exactly someone would ever be so sick as to decide to create an edible replica of The Situation’s debatably not-so-dreamy abs. But probably the winner is a pic of this celeb mother who, from the looks of it, is pretty much completely out of touch with her self-image or any sense of shame.

I wouldn’t exactly say it’s a coincidence that these new Camelflage panties came out just as the number of camel toes seems to be rising at an exponential rate. They’re everywhere! At the MTV movie awards, standing next to me on the subway – heck, at this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if I saw a few on the soccer field at the World Cup this Saturday.

And it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out what’s to blame for all this camel toe chaos. It’s those freakin’ rompers and jumpsuits everyone seems to love so much! One could easily take a cheap shot at Lady Gaga and blame her for popularizing these vag-hugging-suits that are now plaguing Miley, Xtina, Rihanna, Katy Perry etc. but I will do no such thing! I think everyone’s forgetting the days of Britney’s red catsuit from the “Oops I Did it Again” video. Why not point a finger in that pleathery direction?

After spending the last 45 minutes of my life looking at pictures of celebrity’s camel toes, it’s really starting to make me self-conscious. Does the plastic jumpsuit I keep in my closet for those very special occasions (read: Halloween and weddings) similarly reveal a definable outline of my lady parts? Or how about those jeggings I throw on when I can’t seem to fit into my skinny jeans? Do they too expose a frontal wedgie (A.K.A. a fredgie)?

Maybe it wouldn’t hurt to invest in a pair of camelflaging panties. And while I’m at it, perhaps I should pick up a few pairs for these revealing Hollywood ladies. I’m pretty sure I’d get some sort of Nobel Prize for my contribution to society. Read More »

This is just bad.

Who the eff is styling Rihanna these days?

[It's pretty obvious that the average CollegeCandy reader has some very strong opinions. Opinions that she likes to share with everyone on the site. We love a strong woman, so we thought we'd give her a real forum to discuss her thoughts, feelings, and perspectives. Every Friday I'll be featuring a hot topic (like moving in to save money!) and leaving it up to you, the readers, to duke it out. So, read it and get your debate on in the comments section below!]

Ok, it’s no secret that we’re loving the skinny jean (even if it’s not always good for us) and leggings have been a fall go-to for the past several years, but now that the two have combined it’s time to decide how we really feel about this leg-covering love child – jeggings.

Jeans+leggings seems like it would be great idea, what with the era of the super-skinny jean everywhere, and in many ways they are. To start with, the hours of trying on required to find the perfect skinny jean? Gone, thanks to the jegging. They stretch, so you know they’ll fit you – even if you’re a weird in-between size (like me) or you have a “non-typical” body type, like thin but with muscular thighs.

That whole pocket problem (too far apart? too big? too small? too embellished?) is out the window too, since these babies don’t have pockets. And jeggings let you get away with things you probably couldn’t with regular leggings, like shorter tops, because the denim aspect makes them more “pants lite” than “hosiery.” Read More »

What would we do without the internet? Seriously, we use it to shop, to study, to communicate, to be entertained…and to get answers to the questions we’re not quite sure how to ask. Questions like this one…

Seriously, people. This is not a joke.

The other night my mom called me to ask about some singer (“GooGoo? FaFa?”) that was performing on TV with “panty hose on OVER her thong! I could see her butt!” I kindly explained to my mother that her name is Lady Gaga (“Mother, it’s Gaga. GAGA!!”) and that maybe that was just a costume for that particular performance.

But then I went online to avoid listening to my boring Physics lecture to check out some of Lady Gaga’s jams and realized that this girl really hates wearing pants. I mean, she never wears them. Not just for performances – never. Not on the streets, not at parties… ne-ver. It’s like that bad Britney phase.

I mean, the girl has killer legs, but this is a little O.O.C. (Out of control, people; keep up!) She’s getting dangerously close to camel-toe land. I swear, “Just Dance” should be called “Just (Take Off Your Pants and) Dance,” or “Just Dance With Your Goodies Hanging Out.” Although those wouldn’t have quite the same ring.

I don’t know what it is about today, but somehow we have come across some seriously gross sh*t on the internet. Maybe we have too much time on our hands? Or maybe Tuesdays are just unlucky. Whatever the reason, we can’t keep it to ourselves. It’s just too….gross.

We know you are all out there taking a break from the summer classes/laying by the pool/that awful summer job and you need soemthing to do. So, here it is.

Click with caution. Oh, and learn from our mistakes: put down the snack foods, ladies. Somehow that Oreo Cakester just isn’t as tasty when accompanied by incest, moose knuckles and old lady hoo-hahs.

Um. It looks like my grandpa started designing clothes!

Or maybe not. Even he doesn’t wear his pants this high. What were the people at Society for Rational Dress thinking?

Their designs are typically chic, simple and beautiful. But these? These “pants” are pleading for a camel toe. And a nursing home.

And where exactly does the zipper start? What does one wear with a pair of pants that belts at the breasts? Does this look come in capris?

I know that we are trying to move away from the low rise fad that leaves cracks exposed and the infamous muffin top, but this is taking things a bit too far, no?
