Are there any trends you find numbingly stupid? Like the bucket hat. Or denim everything. Culottes anyone? (link game seriously strong) The trends I find the most delightfully senseless are the physically impossible ones.

Take that purse for example. Is this a joke? I can not even fit my iPhone six plus (well, granted, that thing fits nowhere, but still). I can not imagine using this as a real purse. Its ridiculous size was what drew me to this accessory at Zara. I totally left all of my junk at home to wear it.

Ok, that was a lie. My mom, who kindly took these photos, also kindly held my blue Kanken. So here is how I would style the mini bag if I would wear it. But I’m not insane.

Какие ваши любимые идиотские тренды? Панамка? Джинса с ног до головы? Кюлотты? Лично мне больше всего нравятся физически невыполнимые. Вот в эту сумочку, например, не помещается даже мой телефон (да, он размером с мое лицо, но все же). Если бы я не принесла ее в своем рюкзаке Kanken вместе с кучей незаменимого хлама, то, наверно, надела бы ее так.

  • Haha, SO TRUE!!! Denim everything drives me nuts too. WHY??? It looks horrible! Your outfit here is adorable and chic. I’m wearing a mini purse on my blog today too, but mine is a bit larger than yours. 😉

    great post! I love the blue midi skirt! I really don’t like normcore shoes! I am a stiletto-pretty ballet flat kinda girl!

    • Not sure I know what norm core shoes are 😀 Sneakers? Moccasins? The ones I’m wearing in this post?

  • Love the little bag 100x more than culottes! I do agree with you on it being a bit impractical. Then again, what do I know, I carry an oversized tote that kills my back 99.9% of the time lol.

    Love your look.

    • Well, I’m with culottes here, sorry 😀 I switched to backpacks on a daily basis, although it does limit fashion choices.
      Thank you for stopping by!

  • Aww the little bag is so cute, it’s prob less ridiculous than the massive bags we all carry. Kinder on your back too

    • Good point, but the huge bags are definitely more practical 🙂 Although backpacks are the first comfy choice for me.

  • Beautiful outfit, Yana! It is super feminine and at the same time preppy. I love that combination!

    • Thank you for stopping by!

  • Love your gingham top with the blue midi!

  • Just beautiful Yana! I love the little bag and this whole look on you. I think the little clutch bags are just ridiculous myself but oh well.

    • This bag is like a bad boyfriend, you know he kinda ruins everything for you, but he’s so cute haha

  • You look beautiful XO! Thank you so much for sharing with #LINKUPWITHLISA @ http://www.beauty101bylisa.com/2015/06/linkupwithlisa-22-summer-thrifting-finds.html

  • Rather a culottes fan actually! Not a fan of leggings as pants. Not so much a trend as an epic fail though.

    • I might be guilty of breaking the leggings rule on several occasions… Not proud haha. And culottes are the best! Just posted a look with red culottes 🙂

  • Irene

    love the outfit! so simple! beautiful pictures!

  • Love the strong combination of blue with the gingham shirt. Thanks for linking it up to Top of the World Style

    • Thank you Nicole 🙂

    There are some trends that do sound wacky, especially the bucket hat! That is something I would not try to do because I know I like crazy!

    • I have been toying with the bucket hat idea for some time. I have one from eBay. We’ll see 😀

  • Elegant Martina

    This youthful outfit is wonderful!

    Greetings from Martina, through Turning
    Heads #Linkup! I will be happy if you visit me at Elegant 40.

    • Thank you Martina 🙂 Will definitely visit your blog.

  • Lyn

    haha Yana, you are so funny. btw I l O V E culottes. If only I’m not short 🙁

    • Thank you Lyn 🙂 I love culottes too, but I’m not tall and my legs are seriously short. I find wearing heels and making sure the culottes are flow and high-waisted helps 🙂

  • Random Musings

    My trend pet hate was the whole oversized flowers stuck on the side of your head trend! #allaboutyou
    Debbie

    • I know what you mean, but I still think they are possible to pull off 🙂 But I’ve noticed this flower trend is slowly dying.

  • Jessie

    Oh but it’s such a cute little bag! I love it. and one trend I do not like is colored mascara. #AllAboutYou

    • Not a fan of coloured mascara either. Never saw anyone pull it off. Oh god, now it sounds like a challenge 🙂

  • Monica Siembieda

    haha I love your take on trends. I was actually just talking about this exact thing how certain trends I don’t understand. I will definitely test them out but I usually fail haha.

    • Thank you Monica 🙂 Sometimes I feel a trend is so stupid I have to try it haha

  • I got a kick out of this post! a lipstick and credit card perhaps? Well, love the blue midi! Let me see, as far as trends go, I am not sure yet.. I only go with the ones I like 🙂

    Thanks for linking up with Turning Heads Tuesday!

    • Thank you Jess! That’s about it 🙂 I actually like ridiculous trends, they’re fun and they prevent me from taking myself too seriously.

  • Ha, that purse is tiny! Maybe just right for a cell phone? I love the midi skirt!

    • The thing is, iPhone 6 doesn’t fit inside 🙁 lol Thank you for stopping by!

  • Natasha Karpova

    Мне нравятся топотушки))) милейшие!!!!

    • И удобные! Ток красятся ужасно(

  • I love your outfit! I agree with the mini bags though. Kate Spade Monday is as small as I can go, and that really only holds my phone and a lipgloss. 🙂

    • Thank you Stephanie 🙂

  • Mini bags are SO cute, but not very practical for daily use. Where would I put my lipgloss collection?! 😉

    • I like my bags roomy and full of old receipts, random water bottles and stray make up, but that’s just me 🙂

  • That tiny bag is so cute! Love your tied gingham and blue midi skirt!
