There are three more weeks of summer, but for the love of God, let's not pollute them with the horrendous fashion trends we witnessed while we were on Happy Valley hiatus.

Making your wardrobe campus-appropriate really isn't hard.

So grab a box, Good Will is going to thank me for increasing their business.

We'll start with the ladies.

If you are going to wear a dress, make sure it is in fact a dress and not a long shirt.

Billowy, oversized tops are fine by me -- in fact, they're great for the morning after you decide that an entire pizza is a reasonable meal portion.

Remember, however, your butt cheeks are still feeling the effects of all that Canyon, and we don't need to see them peeking out from under your frayed Abercrombie mini.

Another tip: strapless shirts, racerbacks and halter tops should NEVER be worn with a regular bra.

Doing so makes you appear idiotic and confused; it's as though you didn't get the memo that a bra is an undergarment, not a piece of clothing.

If by chance you don't have the proper lingerie to match your newest camisole, do us all a favor -- pick another top, don't forgo the brassiere.

Boobs have a mind of their own and extreme sagging or a peeping nip doesn't add to your look.

Unfortunately, fashion faux pas aren't only made by girls.

It takes some serious effort for males to concoct a disastrous ensemble but you boys certainly made it happen this summer.

First of all, these tees with printed with phrases that you apparently find to be witty must go.

For example, your delusion that moms "heart" you isn't going to win the ladies; it just forces us to picture you in the throws of passionate love with our own mothers.

Your farmer's tan is also a turn off. I'm sure you got it in a really attractive way-- perhaps while you were painting a house or putting shingles on a roof-- but when you strip down to your swimming trunks its nothing short of awkward.

Now, much like Cher, you wish you could turn back time; slap on a sleeveless shirt so those muscular shoulders you've been working on can bronze properly, but alas, it's too late.

Now your only options are to wear shirts with sleeves or sacrifice your manly pride and go tanning once or twice.

As for the summer's footwear situation, there's one thing that really makes me cringe: Crocs.

News flash: plastic shoes with breathable air holes went out in the 80s. We called them Jellies, and they were equally as pathetic as today's version.

I'm not saying that these little gems are completely purposeless; they'd be great for wading in a river or washing your car, but these are private activities, so let's keep it that way.

Plus, if you leave your Crocs at home mom will thank you. She can use them when she gardens.

There also seems to be some slight confusion as to what shoes are appropriate to wear with a skirt.

Flip flops, pumps, stilettos, flats--all fine.

Boots?

Not fine.

Unless you just landed a job at The End Zone, anything that comes up to your knee should not be paired with a skirt.

Besides the fact that your shins are sweating like Kevin James on a treadmill, this ensemble is just downright embarrassing.

Inevitably, the return to school means the return to bad fashion.

So bring on the leggings and the Uggh boots, it's gonna be a long year.
