    Those shoes are killing me! Seriously my eyes are bleeding.

    • TheOriginalLulu

      What the hell ARE they?? Are those like those jellies that 5-year olds wear to play in the sprinklers??

      • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=751285857 Sally Brownson

        They are, in fact. And they’re hideous!

  • Chickadeep

    Those things are practically CROCS. Jesus wept.

    (…and don’t get me started on the Hostess Sno-Ball trim she’s got going on there.)

    • mshesterp

      I think I had a pair of those (in clear!) in 8th grade.  They shouldn’t come back (although I did love them at the time…)

      • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1241487378 Lauren Lynch Fox

        I thought the very same thing. Had them, loved them, never want to see them again! Hint: if you can buy your shoes at the Acme, don’t wear them.

      • Chickadeep

         Of course you loved them…you were in 8th grade! Which is totally where they belong.

    • Jessi03

      They’re jellies!

  • schadenfreudelicious

    damn that is one ugly dress, i cant even with those shoes….

  • http://www.katidom.com/ Kati B

    This entire look is like it was assembled at a Ben Franklin’s Craft Store. Those shoes hurt my feelings. Plus, can you imagine how STANKY her feet were at the end of the night? Blech!

      My like button is not working. Suffice it to say, I tried pressing it. I would “love” that if I could. :)

    yuuuuuuuuuuuuuug.

    No, I cannot…just….NO

    • MarissaLG

      yep. 

  • crash1212

    Whole lot a cheap – not so much chic.

  • suzq

    Either she’s too short or the dress is too long.  I can’t quite figure out which is which.  With the proportions so off, it just looks ugly instead of being the sort of cheeky fluff Moschino intended.

  • Larkin21

    That first picture is hilarious. “Yeah, I’ve seen my shoes. SO?!”

    • In_Stitches

       For some reason I can’t ‘like’ your comment.  Consider it loved then. 

    • sandra E

       They look like shoes for Swamp Thing.

  • vanjar

    Where I live, Jelly shoes are the type of shoes children wear when they play in the water.  She looks ridiculous.

    CHEAP CHEAP and SUPER CHEAP

  • nannypoo

    What the hell?

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1047749944 Katherine Pavlica

    Paillettes and pom poms.  And a cray cray collar that almost matches her shoes.  In!

  • AuntieAnonny

    *frowny face*

  • Saucysusan

    Just wow, really, really bad.

  • moppet

    Well…I get that she’s making an intentional statement, here. (Whether I agree with that statement or not…) In that context, the fact that she’s wearing jelly shoes isn’t even my main issue; it’s that they’re jelly shoes that don’t seem to match the rest of the outfit.

    This dress is so figure-obscuring. On the model and on Azealia. Don’t like.

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1576973112 Patricia Groves Dobrowski

    Is she 6?  ’cause that’s the only excuse I’ll accept for this ensemble.

    • http://profiles.google.com/sara.e.munoz Sara Munoz

      Hells yes. My six year old would ROCK this outfit. But I would never actually let her wear jelly shoes…

    • poggi

       That’s so funny, because my daughter said this was “so pretty, like a bunny.”  She is, of course, six. 

  • MilaXX

    You know what? The outfit is hiddy, then again it’s hiddy on the model so it really didn’t stand a chance. I’ve been hearing a bit of rumblings about Ms. Azealia and apparently she’s one to watch in the world of female rappers. I think she does the same ugly, crazy styling that Keasha or MIA like to wear so I don’t exect any WERQs coming from her. To her credit the hair/makeup aren’t completely hideous so maybe she’ll surprise us one day.

    FLAWLESS AND PERFECT IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE

    • http://profile.yahoo.com/J2VE4NE2FY2BP4QD2XOYKJGLPI Laura

      LOL

  • RebeccaKW

    This chick skinned a mermaid and a muppet, raided Molly Ringwald’s pretty-in-pink closet for that collar, and is wearing jelly sandals.  I weep. 

  • PaulaBerman

    That dress would be so cute if it didn’t look like tribbles were eating it from the bottom up. The shoes are just silly.

  • LesYeuxHiboux

    My exact words when these photos loaded: ho-ly shit.

    She’s wearing shoes that look like Crocs from a distance, and from a shorter distance resemble the jelly sandals that were all the rage at my public school in the mid-nineties. Are her toes covered in sweaty black crud? I’d guess yes.

    Moving upward, she is wearing a holographic fish-scaled Fembot nighty with a fucking CROOKED ORANGE COLLAR. Add greasy-looking cocker spaniel hair held back with a half-assed bobby pin and voila!

    Her makeup looks nice.

  • AlexisPayne

    I have no idea who this is, but this is straight up hideous

    • http://twitter.com/mktp michael tanner

      google Azealeia Banks 212… lolololol

  • meghann chell

    Well, they got the cheap part right.

  • http://profiles.google.com/sara.e.munoz Sara Munoz

    Who? What? The Fuck??

  • http://twitter.com/PhDKnitter marlie

    The whole outfit is atrocious. 

  • NurseEllen

    Cheap?  Probably not.  Chic?  DEFINITELY not.  The shoes should be melted down into one of those floatation “noodles” that kids use in the pool.

  • http://twitter.com/ms_smartiepants Beth Mellone

    ahahahaha. Thanks for the afternoon stress relief.

  • marilyn

    She got the cheap part right, at least in style sense.  Maybe someone else is doing the ‘chic’ part.  That is probably an expensive dress, in reality.  I hope she did not actually BUY it.  If it is borrowed, she should have sent it back and worn ANYTHING ELSE.   

    Following the cheap theme, she did get it right with the shoes.  Too bad the color is for anyone under 10 years.  It is amazing they make those in an adult size.   

    She is a beautiful young woman with a gorgeous figure, trapped in a Santa’s helper costume (for Las Vegas, of course, which explains the lack of sleeves. 

    I am putting this down to a Bad Fashion Day for her.  Maybe tomorrow will be better.

  • TropiCarla

    I think the dress is hysterically funny. It really isn’t that bothersome on a celebrity rapper. HOWEVER – those shoes are inexcusable. A pox on them!

  • http://twitter.com/SparklyCasanova UglyCasanova

    Cheap & Chic indeed!

  • Rand Ortega

    I has a sad…

  • kimmeister

    What is this I don’t even

  • http://twitter.com/luqluqe LuqeMann

    At first I was like, “Gurrl, what the fuck?” and then I was like, “Seriously girl, what the fuck?”

  • michelle shields

    yep it looks cheap!

  • http://angryfemur.tumblr.com Andrea Lane

    Sorry, hon, you ain’t no Nikki Minaj.

    …are those crocs?

  • rumcg66

    Jesus. That dress could *maybe* be borderline acceptable if it were the length it is on the model, and I mean just barely, on the right person in the right setting. But those shoes are an abomination. They’re practically Crocs. Horrifying.

  • formerlyAnon

    That is a very . . . um . . . well . . . odd dress.

    Made about 100 x odder by the shoes, but since I don’t think it would help the dress to take it seriously, I can’t fault her (or the stylist) for trying to mate odd with odd.

    Except that those shoes are such an ugly kind of odd.

    And I’d have wanted her hair up or drawn back in order to show off the neck & shoulders, but when you’re wearing orange jelly sandals with a chunky heel with your pink iridescent paillete-covered puffy bunny tail-trimmed dress (with orange sherbet-colored shirt collar!), who is really gonna care what you do with your hair?

  • Anathema_Device

    Wow. Does she ever look ridiculous.

  • http://profile.yahoo.com/XZTPYIF64TK3QDEMWUAS3KULFI Ted

    That looks absolutely cheap and yeah, not chic in any sense. 

  • petalfrog

    The first thing that popped in my head is “Donald Duck”

    • http://twitter.com/noshadejustT Tea

      Me too! She looks feathered and rotund. Blech. 

  • CarolinLA

    Two thoughts:  I had a lamp when I was a girl that looked just like this and, second, who the fuck is this girl?!

  • Lina_bee

    NO MORE PLASTIC SHOES.

  • Lilithcat

    Cheap, yes.  Chic, no flamin’ way.

  • SophieCollier

    Are you kidding me?  Seriously, T-Lo?  You had nothing to say about this?  Damn.

  • julnyes

    Head to Toe – NO

  • guest2visits

    She’s so very pretty; this would have been a great look if she had worn the model’s shoes or something similar.
    Granted, it’s a goofy dress – but it was better than those jellies.

  • Vlasta Bubinka

    hahahahahaha……… snort… hahahahahahaha… klonk, hit my head from hyperventilating.

  • gabbilevy

    ARE THOSE JELLIES?!?

  • quiltrx

    Was this dress a challenge on Tori Spelling’s new show?

  • plinkiedoodle

    Oh, heck no. 

  • http://profiles.google.com/sauchih Sau-Chih Feng

    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

    Okay… okay, I’m calm. I’m cal–HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

  • RzYoung

    Those shoes make me want to puke

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Maya-KC/537771651 Maya KC

    …BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Jessica-TallGirl-Freeman/1043623567 Jessica TallGirl Freeman

    Yep, I’m only left with the ability to laugh, apparently that is the consensus in the commentary. 

  • http://profile.yahoo.com/Y3OY6COEVBS2STNCUNIRZ3COUE Claudia

    Those are shoes I would have died to own…as a 5 year old…in 1988.  And even then, I feel a little shameful.

  • BobStPaul

    Damn.  That is one tacky outfit.

  • Lisa Dugan

    Eeeek.

  • mjude

    WTF is up with those shoes? LMFAO!

  • http://profile.yahoo.com/J2VE4NE2FY2BP4QD2XOYKJGLPI Laura

    Oookaaaay…. Surprised the photographers didn’t ROTFLMAO

  • jw_ny

    lmao!  

  • SapphoPoet

    OMG. She’s wearing JELLIES? Yikes.

  • http://twitter.com/kerrymccombs Kerry McCombs

    Good God No.

  • Snailstsichr

    Is she supposed to look pregnant in this dress? And then I saw the shoes.

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=610791985 Aniela Marie Perry

    I’m sorry, I want to say something witty but when I look at this all I can say is “ROFLMAO”

  • http://www.facebook.com/D.D.D.Dino Dino Bonačić

    I WANT THOSE SHOES. 
    this outfit makes me happy. <3

  • sashaychante

    Jellies are just a bad idea.  I remember these from my childhood.  ICKY!

  • frannyprof

    NO, NO, NO!

  • ChiKat67

    I was wondering if she had foot surgery, or some horrible foot-related condition that forced her to wear plastic shoes.  Cuz, DAYUM, those shoes took ugly to a whole other level.

  • bellafigura1

    What?  What is happening here?

  • http://twitter.com/urban_gypsy Tess Danesi

    Wait. T-Lo couldn’t think of anything to say about this get up? The heat must have exasperated them, I know that’s how I feel. Then again, a couple of eye rolls and a sweet baby Jesus is all that’s really needed. 

    • lovelyivy

      My guess is that it was WAYYYYY too easy and she’s not famous enough (yet- this is apparently Nicki Minaj’s competetition. Maybe all the ugly is meant to set her apart?)

  • http://twitter.com/foodycatAlicia foodycatAlicia

    I don’t like this look, but I want to stroke her! Like lizard scales and then fluffy bunny tails.

  • allisankelly

    Cheap and Chic? Okay then. Pom-poms and jelly shoes. I think that’s Cheap and Cheaper.

  • TieDye64

    Perfectly appropriate for a four year old.

  • luluransom

    Ahahahahaha. Wait, she’s kidding, right?

  • http://twitter.com/Putting_On_Airs Kathleen

    She must not have a true friend in the world… If she did they wouldn’t have let her walk out of the house looking like that.

  • It Hurt’s To Be In Love

    My issue is the wig and the make up…mainly the cheeks

  • Cat_In_A_Hat

    This dress might take the prize for most seasonally inappropriate. That she tried to summer it up with the jelly sandals is kind of hilarious though.
