Hi, Fueled by Fug readership. I'm Zani, I'm new, and you probably won't love me as much as you love Cloe, but I couldn't pass up an opportunity to publicly state just how much I hate this hoodie:



This hoodie is so ugly that it actually angers me. It may not seem that offensive but when you spend as much time on the internet as I do, you notice that Pete Wentz has about four outfits total unless someone else is styling him. And for some insane reason, this hoodie, paired with a pair of girl jeans, is one of them. I can't understand why he loves it so much. Think about how bad it must smell by now!
Okay, I like Morphine Generation. I own one of their hoodies. But mine is an oatmeal color that is fab for my skintone and it has a really interesting reproduction of an old lithograph on the back. Pete's is a dull gray color that does nothing to make him look less dead and, aside from a gothic M on the front (which you can't really see in this picture), it has nothing to draw the eye. But it's not just boring. There's some sort of dead animal around the hood. I think it's rabbit fur, but it's really just not cute. I'm pretty sure Pete's animal-friendly bros (and vegan bandmate Andy) aren't big fans of the fur.
Then there is the bass. Fashionable people have pretty much always been opposed to gaudy designer logos, and even more opposed to faux designer logos (design is, after all, intellectual property), but the Clandestine bartskull version of Louis Vuitton's signature print takes this trend to a whole new level of ew.

And Pete? Lay off the bronzer.

That hoodie also has a huge glittery design on the back of it, when I saw him walk onstage with that on when I saw FOB in January, I cringed.

I have it uploaded here if you want to see that lovely design:

I didn't know that. But it looks pretty gaudy. Is it just gold foil or are there also rhinestones around it? It looks like there might be.

God, yes, I fucking HATE that hoodie. I really hope he doesn't continue to wear it, because it really does nothing for him.

Pete...
no. Honestly, NO.
That hoodie is shameful.

I'm pretty sure that there are rhinestones or some kind of glitter on it, because it was sparkly.

I think that someone needs to steal that hoodie from him, and burn it.
