Have you ever bought a completely mad, impractical piece of clothing?

I've bought a glittery velvet minidress

I LOVE it. I have been prancing about the kitchen pretending that I'm in Riverdance.

I don't think I could ever wear it in public but bloody hell I love it.

Pictures, please.
It sounds like something I would love!

Even more tragically, it's M&S

Wear it out! If you stuck opaques with it you could get away with it as daywear.

It's lovely!!! Enjoy indoors or out!!!

That's fine! That looks lovely and warm. I hate being cold just because you're going to a party.

It’s gorgeous!! I bet you look lovely in it. definitely wearable

Oh I could never wear it out, especially if there was a chance that Fairytale of New York could be played

OP, having bought and worn a glittery velvet mini dress, albeit when in my twenties, I’d not say that was mad or impractical! It was a gold glitter flower pattern on black velvet (from BHS!), and I received quite a few compliments on it.

Wear it with pride!

Oh that's lovely! I would totally wear that out, in fact, I'm nipping into M&S later to see if they have any instore!

That dress is lovely.

I bought a pair of the shoes in this link NB: not my blog, and they were horrendously expensive. They are still in their box having been worn, once, for an hour. DH still takes the piss about them...

Wear it! Engineer a night out if needed.

Ive just bought a velvet top that needs to be dry cleaned. Sigh.

A beautiful (in my eyes) velvet jacket in burgundy. It was expensive and brought when I was down in the dumps. I love it but wont wear it out.

It's a lovely dress. It really isn't impractical. If it bothers you , you can dress it down with black opaque tights and flat shoes or boots but honestly that dress will be fine.

I wouldn't wear it as an office day dress but it's absolutely fine for going out in the evening to pub or restaurant.

No, but I have bought a totally mad and impractical Christmas present for adult dd.

She will love it

A nearly full length Monsoon black beaded evening dress. It was £8 in a charity shop and I love it!

I sometimes get it out of the wardrobe, feel the weight of it (it's quite heavy with the beads) admire it, and then put it back.

I did wear it once to a party, but I'm not sure it even fits anymore. I'll never get rid of it though.

I bought a leopard skin jumpsuit which makes me feel very happy but not sure I'll ever be brave enough to wear it out of the house!

No, but I have bought a totally mad and impractical Christmas present for adult dd.

Do tell

I think it just feels impractical because my mum would have refused to buy me it as a teenager It's a very small rebellion!

I have a fondness for hats!

I can only wear them if I'm spending most of my time seated!!! I do love them though

God yes. Vintage stuff mostly. I bought an immaculate blue wool 1960’s shift dress, it’s beautiful. Literally will never wear it because I look like I’m lost on the way to a fancy dress party.

I have a short red leather kilt, I love it.

Ooh I love that dress. Wish they did a knee length version because even with black tights I can’t pull off a short skirt. But if you have the legs for it then do it!

I have a couple of pairs of absolutely batshit Irregular Choice shoes. I can barely walk in them. I’d probably be embarrassed to wear them because they aren’t my style anymore. But I like looking at them in my cupboard and sometimes wearing them round the house

I once bought a pair of black leather trousers, must be nearly 20 years ago. I wore them out with a skimpy top on a balmy August evening, very sweaty and uncomfortable! Think Ross from Friends

I have a completely impractical gold minidress that I bought for a hen night I never attended. I might wear it Christmas Day. It’s a bit impractical for doing the turkey but I’ll feel great.
