I ordered trendy jeans from Depop… but when I opened the parcel, I was mortified – some say it’s a win

But just like with all fashion online, buying something you don't have the chance to see in person comes with a huge risk.
And unfortunately, nobody knows this better than one unlucky fashionista who had a rather unpleasant experience with the shopping app.
According to the style lover, they had ordered a pair of trendy jeans - but upon opening the parcel, they were in for a surprise.

Baffled, the Depop fan immediately proceeded to send a message to the seller who had sent out the package of the goods.

''WHAT? Seriously?
''Um, I'm honestly really confused, what the hell.''
