Carly Rae Jepsen is 27 and has spent much of her newfound fame dressing like Honey Boo Boo Child. It's clear that her 2013 resolutions include transitioning into a more grownup look. Apparently a way, way grownup look, including this high-waisted mom skirt.

Yes, this floor-skimming wonder is a very non-maternal candy apple red, but so are many polka and square dancing ensembles.

We know, we know: We haven't even addressed the gloves. And the midriff shirt that's little more than a boob cradle with sleeves. It's because we can't get past the skirt. After all, if Carly were wearing it any higher she'd look like a human yield sign.
