Do you know what I hate?
Pigeons? Why yes, you're right, but that's besides the point.
Those tops that are actually two tops in one. You know like when you get jumpers that appear to have a shirt underneath them when really it’s just the collar of a shirt sewn underneath. Now which bright spark thought that one up? I can just see someone on a design team sat there praising themselves for their ingenious idea “Oh how clever I am, everyone will think it’s a real shirt AND a real jumper when really it’s all one garment!”
I’m not sure exactly why they annoy me so much, it might just be the sheer laziness of combining two items rather than taking the time and effort to actually find two separate tops which go well together. It just takes a bit of the fun out of getting dressed (for me, every trip to my wardrobe is a new adventure – usually because getting across the obstacle course that masquerades as my bedroom is like something out of Raiders of the Lost Arc). That and the fact that having worked in a clothes store, I know first-hand that those shirt-under-jumper things, like other monstrosities such as dresses with two layers and cardigans with strappy vests attached, make your life ten times more difficult when trying to hang them up!
