[centric-xx.livejournal.com]

this candy funk~ is such an eyesore.

i'm glad 2NE1 toned it down a bit.

[thataintkuu.livejournal.com]

wow, that picture D: 2NE1 looks terrible. I don't know how anyone thinks they have good style. I mean, since when is it kewl to have unwashed greasy hair like Minzi? it looks like they all steal their clothes from Big Bang's dumpster or smth!

[turdferguson.livejournal.com]

you wanna die?

[polysweet.livejournal.com]

I ALWAYS KNEW THOSE ~*MEANINGFUL*~ LEGGINGS WOULD BE A SMASH HIT! 8D

[centric-xx.livejournal.com]

omg your icon hahaha

[baeraki.livejournal.com]

they did not just associate 2NE1 with "Candy Funky Style".

i remember girls dressing like this in school about a year ago.
the colors...jfc XD

[turdferguson.livejournal.com]

I was contemplating ripping my leggings a la gdragon. should i do it?

[ennuixo.livejournal.com]

looks cool on stage but if i saw anyone in the street wearing that i'd laugh a little.

[ningenningen.livejournal.com]

lol so true so true

[polyurethane.livejournal.com]

I've been dressing in this "looks like a rainbow threw up on you" style since forever.

FU 4Minute, I did it first.


I do have to wonder how the fuck Hyuna gets into those leggings though. :/

[hoyah.livejournal.com]

she puts on the leggings, then rips holes into them afterwards

[thataintkuu.livejournal.com]

look at that picture. 2ne1 is trying to do candy funk, and failing. I mean, seriously Bom's outfit? wtf?

[skytears9.livejournal.com]

Umm, this article must be confused because 2NE1 is not "candy funk." ~__~

[baeraki.livejournal.com]

they sure aren't.
i don't approve >:O

[jenuyne.livejournal.com]

I think it's a great style/outfit for them when performing, but I would PERSONALLY never wear that out in public. Maybe like REALLY REALLY toned down.

[hoyah.livejournal.com]

lol i want to see this

[kellygreen.livejournal.com]

God, I wish I still lived in Seoul right now, just for the fashion lulz. People in Canada dress so boring. *sigh*

[mihsayam.livejournal.com]

One word: Harajuku. Seoul street fashion will be so subtle in contrast to Harajuku. Go there if you want the lulz.

[parkjinyoung.livejournal.com]

if i saw someone with colorful leggings with holes i'd laugh in their face.
just saying.

[jaehyuno.livejournal.com]

Ngl, if I was straight and I saw a girl dressed like that I wouldn't look twice.

[hoyah.livejournal.com]

not even for the lolz?

[leap4detonation.livejournal.com]

When it comes to fashion, even though both groups have a terrible sense, I still say 2NE1 > 4Minute. I mean, Jesus fucking Christ, at least I don't go blind as a damn bat looking at Minji's leggings or Bom's dress. '_'

[skytears9.livejournal.com]

THISSS.

And your icon is super cute!

[akaich0u.livejournal.com]

The difference between 2NE1 and 4Minute is that 2NE1 knows when to stop. They don't look like idiots unlike 4Minute because they don't do rainbow overkill. If you're going to wear a crazy pattern track jacket, tone it down with normal jeans (like CL) or normal sweats (like Dara).

[amorspesfides.livejournal.com]

nah, the difference between 2NE1 and 4Minute is that 2NE1 has a stylist.

[onerainysunday.livejournal.com]

their styles are ugly and uglier

[xtohoshinki.livejournal.com]

that is a definite DNW. forever.
i would never wear that outside. I don't think i'd wear that inside too.

[wildcosmos.livejournal.com]

PEOPLE CALL THIS STYLE?

[carumbola.livejournal.com]

teenagers aged between 10 ~ 20 years old

wtf?

If I ever see a 10 year old wearing stuff like this, I'll punch her in the throat.
She's a prostitute waiting to happen.

I think celebrities wearing these get-ups is fine, and I do like a good pair of high-tops...But the outside world should watch, not participate.

[pornoroughtype.livejournal.com]

I like the shoes but... uh yeah. That's all.

[dreamerbri.livejournal.com]

ia.

[liime-arix.livejournal.com]

If I saw someone wear that outfit off stage, I could never take them seriously.
