Title:	when someone is dressed really bad.... you say in Québécois (french)
Answer:	être habillé comme la chienne à Jacques

Hints:	1. a lot of double letters in this expression 2. litterally 'to be dress like Jacques' dog' !

Explanation:	litterally 'to be dress like Jacques' dog' ! I have no idea why we say this in Québec. Who is Jacques and what is the problem with his dog!

Instead of "être habillé comme la chienne à Jacques", in English we say "She looks like she tries too hard"
