First of all, a fashion cycle is where they bring back something that was fashionable, say, 10 years ago, such as bell-bottoms, denim, platform shoes, short skirts, long skirts, the boho gypsy look etc.
Where this becomes confusing is when a cycle is re-cycled and then re-cycled again with another look, which then becomes a look unto itself.
So you could have for example, the “Hippy” look gets re-cycled 10 years later but is combined with the “Lady of the Manor” look too. Then, 10 years later the “HippyLlady of the Manor” look is re-cycled with the “Dallas meets Eskimo” look.
Someone who has the Fashion Cycle Syndrome would be so worried about having the latest look that they would look at someone, who, in reality may have not updated their wardrobe for a while except for maybe a new scarf or some accessory, had innocently gotten dressed that morning without a plan, but to whom the Fashion Cycle Syndrome sufferer will assess as not being behind or dated, but as being so far-thinking ahead that they have gone back to the beginning of another cycle which would include the dated stuff. See?
These mini-assessments are done anywhere from once a day to 20 or 30 times a day, depending on what you do and where you do it. Most women are unaware that they are even doing it as it has become so second-nature.
Fashion Cycle Syndrome sufferer's subconscious thought process – “That stuff she’s wearing is so retro it’s way ahead of me!”
A 4x4 vehicle. This term is used when a woman is driving one of these types of vehicle. So called because it gives her a feeling of strength, protection, and security that she would have if with a man. It also makes her taller than the other drivers so she can feel superior and more masterful than other drivers i.e., masculine.
If there is a man in the passenger seat, you'd really better watch out as she will be feeling double-masculine.
"Well there goes another 4Wheel Man driving a mile up the road to pick up the kids from school. They will get straight into the 4Wheel Man in order to be protected from the perverts waiting in the bushes".

This is taken from the slang term for Pyjamas - JimJams - but is re-applied using the word Gym instead.
Gym-Jams are items of clothing that you initially purchase as expensive shit for looking good at the gym, but end up using as pyjamas. Usually the items start out being used at the gym, then as they start to fade and become a bit crappy looking, slowly become relegated into schlepping-around-the-house gear, then into fully-fledged jammies.
Girl - I forgot my bag in the car - can you go out and get it for me? I'm not dressed properly.
Guy - why don't you go? No one will notice cuz you're wearing your Gym-Jams.
