13 fashion disasters all Irish teen girls faced in the noughties

You were the coolest kid in first year.

BEING A TEENAGER in noughties Ireland was a fierce unstylish fate.

1. Combats

The more pockets, the better. Bonus points if you could zip them off into shorts.

2. O’Neills

Red, white, navy, black, you had to have em all. Perfect teamed with a denim jacket and a glowing white pair of Adidas shell shoes.

3. Adidas rip offs

An absolute must-have in 90s Ireland. You weren’t quite a teen yet, but if you were lucky enough to get some hand-me-downs from your siblings… JACKPOT.

13. Jelly sandals

They’re having a comeback but they will never be as aspirational as they were when you were a kid in the 90s. You may have even kept them into your teens…
