SINCE ITS ARRIVAL, Boohoo has been the go-to place when you need a nice dress in a short amount of time.

It’s ever-expanding collection has been a lifesaver many a time. However, there’s also been times when you’ve been scrolling through it and asking yourself ‘who on earth would buy this?’
Here are a selection of ridiculous trousers that you can get if you fancy.
1. Doing the splits
Given it’s winter for about 6 months of the year, these are totally impractical for anything in Ireland. They remind me of tracksuit bottoms that had zips the whole way up the leg for some unknown reason.
The knitted version is worse because you’d just be sweating in a nightclub.
STOP IT.
2. It’s PJ time
Look I like being comfy as much as the next person but these look like PJ’s you’d wear when you’re going into hospital. The cardigan that completes the look only adds to this aesthetic. Get well soon trousers.
This outfit does look comfy as hell though. You wouldn’t have to change after a night out either. You could just go straight to bed.
3. Jeans that are not quite jeans
These are described as ‘high-waist ankle grazer leg jeans’. Firstly the end of these are nowhere NEAR your ankles. They’re also so wide at the bottom that wind blowing the wrong way could send you flying. These jeans just confuse me more than anything.
4. When regular splitting is not enough
Maybe the regular side split trousers aren’t doing it for you. Maybe you need some extreme split trousers in your life. I would argue that these trousers are so extremely split that they are nearly a skirt which surely defeats their purpose?
The ruffles do not make this look any better.
If that doesn’t float your boat then you can have extreme frills instead.
5. When you need to look like Robin Thicke in an emergency
These actually aren’t the worst trousers I’ve seen but unfortunately they only remind me of Robin Thicke at the VMAs in 2013 and honestly nobody needs to return to that time.
6. Tracksuit bottoms aren’t a thing anymore
No no. They’re called ‘relaxed trousers’ now. I also for the life of me cannot work out why you’d wear heels with ‘sports’ trousers but what do I know?
7. A mesh mash of styles going on here
Mesh is cool and when done right, looks incredibly good. This looks like a pair of Cantos rode a pair of fishnet tights, so drafty and cold.
8. Mr Blobby wants his pants back
These would actually be fine on their own but the addition of the bobbles is so ODD.
9. When your rewatch of Friends takes on new levels
Look Janice was by far and away the best character on the show and I feel like both sets of trousers would make her proud.
10. Taking the term ‘disco pants’ to a whole new level
These are the trousers you need for Electric Picnic this year. If you get lost, your friends will be able to find you because honestly who could miss you in these? There’s no such thing as too many sequins. I think.
11. For the love of God please stop splitting my trousers
Please.
SAVE OUR PALE IRISH LEGS.
I give up.
