trashy
Lacking all class
Trashy describes things that are cheap, low-quality, or lacking in taste.
A trashy novel or trashy TV show offers shallow entertainment without artistic merit—though people often enjoy such things as guilty pleasures.
When applied to people or their appearance, trashy suggests vulgarity or tackiness: She thought his gold chains looked trashy.
The word carries class-based connotations, implying something beneath respectable standards.
