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

[spaghettipeppers]

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.

That's lovely. I was expecting something worse!

I bought a low cut dress with a lace gap between the skirt and the top part and lacey sleeves. It looks ridiculous and I've only worn it when trying it on every now and then. It was £28.

I spent £40 in TK Maxx on a full length evening skirt. Because of course I go to the sort of thing where you need a full length evening skirt. 🙄 It hangs in my wardrobe and I get it out and try it on sometimes. I have even bought a top to go with it 😂

So many, but notably a cream almost full length woolen Monsoon cardigan, a mere £100.

A pair of glittery gold 4" stiletto heeled boots from Office.
I can just about totter in them and ended up falling over twice at someone's wedding disco.
😳😳😳😳😳
They look great though.

This jacket..I loved and do love it so much but actually Ive never worn it at all. Its just been in my wardrobe ever since..I cannot ever imagine wearing it either.. Completely mad..

LK Bennett Red silk shoes. I mostly bought them because they were £100 off. (Bought pre-DCs, I have the best of F&F now).
The sole is about the thickness of tissue paper, so not comfortable if you want to walk anywhere and you only have to look at them and they get marked. completely impractical, but they're bloody gorgeous.

OP - that dress is really nice, I'd wear it on Christmas Day and nights out.

I spent £600 on a beautiful dress, wore it once, then lost two stone in weight and now it's useless to me.

I have a wide sleeved top. It is so wide sleeved that I can hardly move my arms in it.

I love it, but it appears I am the only one 😂

Love that dress! I might need it...

A sequined dinosaur onesie from ASOS, just for around the house. Sadly the tail had to go as it was so uncomfortable to sit on. I love it . My only regret is that it has no pockets.

A wedding dress in a size 10 because it was a tenner down from 180£ ....
Reader, I was married 3 years and a size 16 at this point

Justanothrruser - makes perfect sense to me. I once bought a white dress for my beach wedding despite not having a bf at the time or any inclination for a beach wedding. It was a fiver in Top Shop.

And You'd think I lived in the Bahamas with the amount of summer clothes I own.

A sparkly off-the-shoulder jumpsuit by Julien McDonald at Debenhams. It was a sale bargain and I have worn it, but bras are an issue. Everything else about it is great. It fits and it's even comfortable. I feel like a member of a 1970s girl group wearing it.

The Geiger heels are glorious.

Incy. Yes they are. Can't cross your legs over wearing them as they snag everything. There are a million reasons to not wear them - but they are a thing of beauty. I can't really claim to regret them - I just regret not having more opportunities to wear them.

A pair of secondhand red patent leather Vivienne Westwood shoes with a high irregularly shaped platform heel. I brought them back the next day when I remembered I was a skint mum of two pre-school kids and I worked in a conservatively dressed office environment. The lovely shoes had no place in that life. They were beautiful though.

I bought a gorgeous - insane! - devoré evening kimono thing in a sale. All translucent, heavy with embroidery and sparkle, trimmed with a long swishy fringe.

When am I ever going to wear it?!?! I don't have anything that goes with it. I don't even know what would go with it!

It's been hanging in my wardrobe for so long that it's gone right out of fashion (and not long enough to be retro, yet).

But its goooorgeous. And every so often I stroke it, or take it out and swing it elegantly across my shoulders...

A leather skirt from Monsoon (in the sale, but still stupidly expensive).

I wore it once to a meal with friends and was so hot I nearly fainted. Never wore it again, eventually sold it on eBay.

I've made a few other poor fashion choices over the years but that was the daftest.
