We all have bad hair days, but this group has proven to have the ultimate bad clothing day. All of these pictures are actual mug shots that police took after arresting these not-so-lucky men and women. You have to wonder if the arresting officers were laughing under their breaths as they snapped these shots. It would be hard not to.
While these people aren’t paragons of virtue, they are excellent examples of one thing: What not to wear if you’re planning on being arrested. Paris Hilton and Heather Locklear would be appalled!
