Z100 Jingle Ball Fashion, From Creepy Uncle Robin Thicke to Miley in a Tuxedo

Many things happened this Friday the 13th, of which the least-culturally-important-but-most-fun-to-judge was Z100's Jingle Ball concert. Unfamiliar with the Jingle Ball oeuvre? It's basically an excuse to entertain a bunch of tweens with class acts like Austin Mahone and Fifth Harmony. And Selena Gomez. And Miley Cyrus. Cue screaming fans and zero alcohol sales.

Unfortunately for any future trendsetters of America who may have been in attendance, the fashion was far less star-studded than the guest list. There were a few cute looks (eye roll), but nothing terribly worthy of immortalization. Thankfully, there were also lots of poorly styled and generally unfortunate looks to click through, snicker at, and then curl up and loathe ourselves for being such a judgmental Internet hive mind.

Worst: Robin Thicke

Why was he even invited? He is literally turning into everybody’s creepy uncle. And he stood like a Ken doll in every single red carpet picture. And he wore a shiny leopard-print blazer that just would not quit thinking highly of itself.

Robin Thicke

NO, ROBIN, NO. There are children in attendance!

Bad: Hayley Williams

I want to like this “edgy” hairstyle, but all I can think of is “scalp graft.”

Bad: Pitbull

Once I say this you can’t unsee it, but… look how tight his pants are.

Bad: Lindsay Lohan

I’ve been staring at this picture for five minutes and all I can see is that sad little hair elastic on her right wrist.

Bad: Snooki

This is what happens when your demure grandma tries to “show a little skin.”

Bad: JWoww

Catherine Zeta-Jones after being locked in a thrift store for 3 hours.

Decent: Flo Rida

Was kind of digging the red pants/blazer combo… until he took off his shirt.

Decent: Anna Kendrick

Nah… the shirt has too much fabric, the skirt has too little, and the necklace sorta looks like it’s on backward.

Decent: Enrique Iglesias

Oh, sure, its all super hot until you spot the cargo pockets.

Decent: Miley Cyrus

One might be tempted to categorize this as “bad,” given the American Apparel-worthy bottoms. But her gorgeous makeup, big smile, and snowball earrings kind of save the day here.

Good: Selena Gomez

The woman was built for wind in her hair.

Good: Kellan Lutz

Never has a deep v-neck and a gaudy ring looked so take-me-to-your-parents.

Good: Tegan and Sara

New life plan: become their BFF, steal all their perfectly fitted black skinny pants and androgynous loafers, skip town.

Good: Katie Holmes

She definitely shopped in the juniors section for this outfit, but she looks cute, and her grown-out bob is happening.

Good: Miley Cyrus

Never has a tuxedo looked so feminine, so intense, or — sorry, does she have shoes on? — made us want inner-arm tattoos, a punk pixie cut, and a crash-but-not-burn career so badly.

Best: The Christmas Tree

Perhaps this wasn’t her first-choice outfit for a Friday night, but she never stepped out of character.
