12 items of clothing on Boohoo that we need to have a chat about
LOOK I’LL BE the first to admit that trawling through Boohoo in search of a bargain is one of my favourite things to do. Can I always afford to do it? No. Does that stop me? Absolutely not.
However, on more than one occasion I have come across items that have made me question the kind of person who might buy them. Here are 12 recent examples that I’ve come across.
1. This ‘high rise’ bodysuit

As we saw in Love Island, swimsuits that look like thongs from behind are very ‘in’ right now. However, if you’re afraid of a bikini wax (same tbh) or just someone who doesn’t enjoy their knickers being stuck up their arse then this isn’t something for you. God speed if you can wear one of these.
2. Zip up jeans

The concept of jeans that zip up from the back isn’t a new one. What confuses me about these jeans is the length of the zip which makes it look like you have a rather long and unfortunate stain the whole way around your arse.
3. This skirt

Yes the colour is nice but I just can’t unsee the fact that it looks like it’s made out of tinfoil. This thought then puts a fear into your head that you’ll go around looking like a leggy burrito.
4. This World Cup t-shirt
[image alt="" src="http://cdn.thejournal.ie/media/2018/08/pastedimage-40047-284x400.png" width="284" height="400" title="" class="alignnone" /end]
I have a few issues with this t-shirt. Firstly, you can only wear it for four weeks every four years which seems like a bit of a waste. Secondly, if you change partner during that gap, they mightn’t like football so the t-shirt, therefore, becomes useless. Thirdly. if your partner doesn’t pay attention to you when the World Cup is on, DUMP THEM.
5. Some American hotpants

Not only do these fall under these ‘can’t wear these if you don’t shave your bikini area’ if you’re wearing anything with the American flag, it doesn’t look great. Next.
6. These PU shorts
[image alt="" src="http://cdn.thejournal.ie/media/2018/08/pastedimage-64320-268x400.png" width="268" height="400" title="" class="alignnone" /end]
I would actually love these shorts if they didn’t remind of the wrapper for a KitKat Chunky Peanut Butter. I can never unsee it.
7. A top that can’t actually decide what it is
[image alt="" src="http://cdn.thejournal.ie/media/2018/08/pastedimage-68664-238x400.png" width="238" height="400" title="" class="alignnone" /end]
‘One sleeve double breasted tuxedo blazer’ otherwise known as a top that’s having an identity crisis. What’s the point of one arm being too hot and the other too cold?
8. A Mayo supporters top
[image alt="" src="http://cdn.thejournal.ie/media/2018/08/pastedimage-33572-238x400.png" width="238" height="400" title="" class="alignnone" /end]
Did anyone else know that Boohoo was heavily involved in the Mayo4Sam movement?
9. This England supporters bodysuit
[image alt="" src="http://cdn.thejournal.ie/media/2018/08/pastedimage-90999-2-242x400.png" width="242" height="400" title="" class="alignnone" /end]
This is probably to make it up to the Brits about wanting Mayo to win the Sam Maguire.
10. This jumpsuit
[image alt="" src="http://cdn.thejournal.ie/media/2018/08/pastedimage-94788-246x400.png" width="246" height="400" title="" class="alignnone" /end]
I’m not a jumpsuit wearer myself but I can’t help but feel like this one looks like icing from Bake-Off that has gone very, very wrong.
11. Some window trousers
[image alt="" src="http://cdn.thejournal.ie/media/2018/08/pastedimage-69302-231x400.png" width="231" height="400" title="" class="alignnone" /end]
Now any person can peer through these trousers to get a good look at your thighs if they want to. Also perfect for when you wear jeans and it gets too hot so you need to change into shorts exceptionally quickly.
12. These shorts
[image alt="" src="http://cdn.thejournal.ie/media/2018/08/pastedimage-26949-239x400.png" width="239" height="400" title="" class="alignnone" /end]
Ok I am only giving out about these shorts because I definitely can’t pull them off but the cut of them scares me slightly. YOU CAN’T WEAR KNICKERS WITH THEM.
