    Oh good god please don't.

    I predict a very short lived trend.

    Nothing about it could ever be considered flattering.

    No, no, no, never!:)

    Some people can make anything look good. I don't think I'll try it though :pac:

    Still, I think this:

    ...is better than this:

    ANY DAY!

    Is there no end to the shame people will put themselves through?

    Sweatpants with heels? C'mon now, the clue is in the name of the item.... s-w-e-a-t-p-a-n-t-s....................... designed for the gym or being active. Pottering about in heels doesn't count.

    First of all, both looks are bad. The woman in the first photo looks better because she is a professional model, with a long and lanky figure, posing in a way to make the outfit look flattering. The 2nd shot appears to be just an "average Joe" caught unawares on the street.

    The gray pair of sweatpants are by themselves better because, unlike the aqua pair, they don't have what appears to be a pony on the bum and writing down the side!!

    Oh dear lord. Please do not. Sweatpants should be worn with runners going to the gym. Thats it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,264 ✭✭✭Pretty_Pistol


    Oh no! Sweatpants with any type of shoe is a no no. But with heels. NO!

    It reminds me of when I was little and would see people wearing ski pants with the elastic strip that goes underneath the foot with shoes.

    I think this is possibly the worst fashion trend I've heard of.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,957 ✭✭✭Magenta


    I don't get why people want to follow trends anyway, just wear something if you like it and if it suits you. I still wear my Spring Summer 2003 clothes haha!

    Agree with this. Unfortunately it's only some people and not everyone has the flair of style to pull off that trend like this

    Heels are for dressy wear - sweatpants are for slogging about or the gym! :eek:

    No, I don't care if the person is a model or whatever, it just looks awful.
