    I've never seen it meself but I'd imagine it's just as bad as skirts over jeans. I wouldn't do it.

    Major fashion no-no in my opinion.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 622 ✭✭✭Garret


    sounds awful


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 575 ✭✭✭JustCoz


    Never seen anyone do this, sounds awful though

    At least if you combine it with the 'balaclava over baseball cap' combination
    people will not recognise you and still laugh at you when you outgrow the phase.

    (that sounds so rediculous.. )

    dont even think about it, you wear one or the other, not both. EOS.

    God no. I'd imagine it looks absolutely ridiculous.

    No no no. Why do people do this kind of thing:confused: Dresses over trousers, shorts and tights together, 80s revivals:confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 80 ✭✭Dudett


    This is what it might look like

    Shorts over tights .. Yes
    Shorts over jeans .. No

    A bridge too far i think!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,838 ✭✭✭Doomspell


    No! That looks terrible!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,145 ✭✭✭DonkeyStyle \o/


    I know I've seen somebody somewhere wearing shorts over jeans once before... thankfully it doesn't seem to have caught on.
    It'd be even more hilarious if you wore them with those boxing boots girls seem to like.

    I predict fluorescent safety jackets (think utility worker) will be the next big fad... honest to God it'll just take one celebrity. :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 63 ✭✭UnReg123


    My god, don't do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it looks awful

    That doesn't automatically make it good. There are LOTS of things that happen over there that aren't good.

    sounds bloody awkward to walk in if you ask me... ick!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 80 ✭✭Dudett


    Heres the shorts over skinny jeans outfit I wore and got loads of compliments on in!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    That looks just atrocious, sorry.

    Agreed. That looks terrible. Don't know what kind of friends you have that would compliment you wearing something like that.

    Sorry but that looks really, really bad. It actually looks ridiculous, I'm surprised you thought it was a good idea to leave the house dressed like that.

    awful awful awful

    If you were going to wear really dark skinny jeans, why didn't you just wear a pair of thick black tights? Looks a hell of a lot better and is much more comfortable, I imagine!

    Criminally bad.

    It wasn't your mother by any chance that kept complimenting you on it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 575 ✭✭✭JustCoz


    Not at all good. And agreeing with Faith's point, would you not just wear leggings?


  • Posts: 0 CMod ✭✭✭✭ Paul Shy Remote


    The colours of the shorts and the jeans don't even match...
    and leggings look just as bad, people...
    seriously what's wrong with just a pair of jeans...

    So much different clothes that you could look good in, that combination is so terrible.

    It looks as if you put on a pair of jeans one sleepy morning, left the house, thought u hadn't dresses urself (thru sleepiness), ran back in and put on a par of shorts.

    What wrong with wearing just one set of clothes rather than mixing and matching 2-3 sets. Eventually people will start to look like the Michellin Man with all the layers of clothes. Also wearing one set of clothes reduces the amount of time getting dressed and the amount of washing of clothes.

    They may have just been worried that if they didn't say something nice you'd kill them and make an attractive blouse out of their skin.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,335 ✭✭✭Cake Fiend


    Next week's fad: string vests over parkas! You heard it here first.

    This is for the same reason that people always tell an ugly and/or fat girl that she's pretty.

    Not sure if they were heartfelt compliments, tbh. Still, if you like 'em wear them.

    Right on all counts;)

    Think the pic u posted first (tan coloured shorts with black skinnys) looks alright...not great, but alright.
    Think the black shorts with tight navy shorts looks a bit trying to hard and failing miserably though.

    Didnt notice the pictures!!

    Like said the first one looks alright, I think maybe Purple shorts with black skinnies might look ok.
