Striped trousers - nice or Andy Pandy?

[tobee]

Or do they just look like pyjamas?

I’ve bought the thin striped ones but am unsure.

There are different colours as well. Red green and brown with neutral background

An omission quickly dealt with ! It's so infuriating.

I think they are ok if you are young and slim, a student maybe.

😂

The trend will die out so fast. Like the yellow raincoat of 2019

I am a victim of both things! 🐤

I have never ever managed to make striped trousers feel like anything other than pyjamas unfortunately.

Absolutely Andy Pandy. I got some of those posh-student stripy trousers that were trendy last year and got called Andy Pandy at least three times by friends and once by a man in the street.

That is why I included the word “maybe”

Good for you for wearing what you want. It wasn’t my intention to police any one else’s choices. Op asked a question and I gave my honest response.

Part of the issue is that the fabric is so thin so I was blaming the manufacturers more than the wearers!

So I asked dd, who has been officially described as brutally honest during her autism diagnosis, and she quite liked them!

I’m still humming and hawing. But your replies have made me laugh.

Go for it op!

I’ve just ordered the circus tent ones 😁

I think they’ll look nice with a white t shirt!

I like them and have 2 pairs, one brown and cream and the other black and white. Nobody has compared them to PJs to my face, I’ve only had compliments.

DD8 says “clown trousers”

what does she know!

I have a linen pair, black with a green stripe. Love them

These free people Day's End Linen Striped Pull-On Pants are on my want list but i do worry DH will just make me feel like an idiot the first time I wear them and at £88, they need to earn their keep!
