I don’t normally look to Hollywood when I’m trying to decide what to wear. My style is more of a hippie-chick-meets-New-York, while the fashion sense in Tinseltown is mostly…expensive and ugly.

Don’t get me wrong, every once in a while I’d love to wear a dress like this, but most of the time, I can’t understand why anyone would want to set eyes on half the stuff celebrities cover themselves with, let alone pay hundreds of dollars for it. And yet, ugly as some of the fads are, they become popular at lightening speed, everyone clamoring for Kirsten Dunst’s ugly stretch pants or Avril Lavigne’s tired (oh so very tired) faux-punk look.

Which is why it should come as no surprise that a new clothing trend is simultaneously taking control of Hollywood while pissing me off immensely.

The Sheet Top Epidemic has always been around, but what was once a small miscalculation between bra color and outside light is now turning into an obvious ploy for attention. Everyone from Christina Aguilera to cute Kate Hudson has been photographed making a calculated sheer mistake. (Oh, Britney Spears has also been photographed doing it, but I mean…it hardly seems strange on her.)

Transparent clothing is tacky and cheap. There’s no arguing about it. Wearing a translucent shirt is just asking people to stare, begging for onlookers to ogle your boobs. What’s so stylish about a white bra under a black shirt anyway? To me, that combination signifies a mistake—something I’d be horrified to discover on my body.

What do you think of this see-through style?
