I think someone laughed at my dinosaur jumper

On my way out of M&S food hall earlier wearing the rather splendid dinosaur jumper Father Christmas brought, and I think I got laughed at by a lady passing me. I could be wrong, but she had previously been walking in silence with a man, looked directly at my chest (where aforementioned dinosaur is proudly displayed) and laughed. One of those slightly derisive, snorty kinds of laugh.

I’m now thinking of making this jumper a sort of M&S uniform, and wearing it every time I go there, in the hope of bumping into her again, and through regular exposure, showing her the joys of dino knitwear.

What do we think? Perhaps I need to up my dinosaur game to be really effective? Dinosaur leggings? Dress? Face paint and matching sound effects?

@DelightfulDinosaurs

I think those of you who are saying you like my jumper are possibly looking at *@Hugasauras* 's post as I didn't put a picture of mine up, but, as a beautiful coincidence, it's the same jumper, just in a different colour!!

Here's mine

@DelightfulDinosaurs absolutely love it. Don’t know what she was laughing at.

If I ever see another woman wearing the SB Dino jumper I will have to stop myself from going over and either high-fiving or asking if she is a fellow MN-er!

@Pythian

I have two Paul Smith dino t-shirts and now, thanks to this thread, I also have a dinosaur shirt (the white one with a black bow) and a lightning bolt jumper. I really wanted the pink layered dinosaur scene jumper too but unfortunately it was sold out in big lass sizes 😆

@ImInStealthMode

I have this skirt OP. I'll wear it tomorrow, in solidarity.
Absolutely love this skirt. Where is it from please? We are a big dino loving house here and have no shame wearing dino prints out 🦕

Or if she’s hoarding her rights. Dinosaurs are a major feminist trend in the UK at the moment after David Lammy called us ‘rights-hoarding dinosaurs’.

Grin I’ve just ordered the Popsy dinosaur T-shirt, but I think I’m going to have to get one from Lily Maynard’s shop too.

I've just found this thread and am now waiting on delivery of dragon scale leggings from Rainbows and Sprinkles 🤦🏼‍♀️
I also bought the glass JL dinosaur Christmas tree ornament with the unfeasibly large arsehole after reading about it on MN😁 in December

I've got a dinosaur dress. I love it!

Mrsmophead · 16/01/2022 19:18

My dress arrived and I finally tried it on... My husband reckons I look as happy as I was in my wedding dress. I love it. @Camomila that's a great tip. Sounds like an excuse to visit the Sugarhill Shop. And Brighton!
