Confess Your Style Sins: Pronto.com's Worst Fashion Moment Contest

We all have skeletons in our closets. That old Grateful Dead shirt you rocked in Middle School. Those flower-embroidered raver jeans you picked up in '98. Why even our beloved Style Director was once guilty of paring a flamenco skirt with a kimono bath robe in her younger years. Well, now it's time to own the fashion fouls of your past and, maybe, walk away with some brand-new treads. Pronto.com's amazing "Worst Fashion Moment" contest is asking you to dig through those old photo albums and upload your, "serious bombs" so that their community of stylish readers can rate the worst of the worst—the absolutely nastiest of which will win a $2,000 shopping spree at Bluefly. There are other prizes to entice you to drag out that pic of your Bat Mitzvah dress too. Finally, all that time you spent in bedazzeled crop-tops and Lyrca tube skirts is about to pay off.
To enter go here.

Scarf? Hood? Who Cares! These Ain't Your Lunchlady's Snoods
