Jean shorts and black tights?!

According to the style makers-and-shakers, jean shorts worn with black tights is a hot trend this season.

Are you kidding me?? I wore that look during my "goth" days in high school. The tights were shredded, but still...

I think I'll pass on the light-washed denim trend too. Some things are best kept in the past. Am I right?
