piratecat · 13/09/2008 10:10

traceybath · 13/09/2008 10:11

ooooh they are truly horrid

Fllllight · 13/09/2008 10:13

No! That is just wrong.

La redoute has carrot jeans and even they are horrible but they are far, far better than that

Ueghriurhghghhhhh

Saw some girls in Brighton wearing these.Kind of 80s look with tight stripy tops and brothel creeper shoes Agnes deyn style.Hideous for WOMEN though

mustrunmore · 13/09/2008 10:15

omg, hideous.

BoysAreLikeDogs · 13/09/2008 10:15

I remember carrot legs from the first time around, they were hideous then.

As were peg top trousers fgs.

Who is deciding that they need another sartorial airing?

GET A GRIP YOU TWONK

noddyholder · 13/09/2008 10:16

Shops full of peg trousers we'll all be wearing them just wait

BoysAreLikeDogs · 13/09/2008 10:17

Next we will be getting blardy bleached denim and back combed pony tails.

carrots + fat thighs (ie --me) = no boyfriend

They are for the young which is why we all hate them.Have high waisted jeans and they are like a corset Very useful

paddingtonbear1 · 13/09/2008 10:33

I'm sure I saw some trousers in gap called 'the peg' the other week!
Those carrot jeans are just horrid!

PixelHerder · 13/09/2008 10:38

Lordy when I saw the thread title I thought 'carrot' was a term of abuse, not what the jeans are actually called in their 'advertising' blurb

These suit NO ONE - no matter how juvenile and twig-like.

isaidno · 13/09/2008 10:41

I shan't be rushing to Miss Selfridge for a pair.

They are gross

NomDePlume · 13/09/2008 10:56

They'd look great with crocs though

georgimama · 13/09/2008 10:58

NOTHING looks great with crocs.

Umlellala · 13/09/2008 10:58

Now, I have been brainwashed into thinking the 80s revival look (on the young) looks quite cool (blame my glossy mag addiction) But
NO . They are just hideous.
