Appearance means visible from the outside.
But I do learn a lot in this forum. For instance a couple days ago I got a lesson in the use of quotations, yesterday i learned choices cannot be mistakes. and today I learned making fun of how someone looks on the outside is not making fun of their appearance.

Eh, I just consider calling someone's outfit ugly to be more of a commentary on their choice of clothing and referring to their physical appearance as an appearance commentary, but maybe that's just me. Someone making a terrible choice in clothing is, well, a choice. Physical appearance isn't as much of a choice. So it's just a different situation in my mind. I think degrading someone on something they didn't choose is not appropriate at all, but saying what they are wearing looks ugly just isn't a bid deal. Still petty, but not a big deal.
