AIBU to think that women who refer to their clothes as "pieces" are twats .

Note I am not fashionable in the slightest and I don't care.

It's a bit different if they are designer well not really but it's more acceptable than some tat they've bought in river island, boohoo, in the style etc

Are these the same people who wear a black trouser with a chunky heel?

Could well be

Or a tee?

Aye and I bet they match it with a stand out red lip.

Same for people who refer to rooms in their houses as 'spaces'.

They also add some 'pieces' for a 'pop of colour'.

The same ones who see hidden meaning in clothes.

They're the same person who "put on a lip"

Today, I am wearing a black legging worn down to the ankle, teamed with a stand out sweater from the George collection and a brown wedge boot.

Yanbu. Very twatty! Unless they're the designer!

They probably source these pieces, not just buy them.

And their wardrobe is curated.

As long as they’re rocking either a smoky eye or a red lip. Never both.

The same ones who describe their meals as though they're second-rate food reviewers who got a thesaurus for Christmas.

Q: What are you having for dinner?

A: thick-cut, lustrous brown, goose-fat-fried, tuberous root vegetable chips, oozing with vinegar and slathered in salt, positively smothered in mayonnaise; mouth-wateringly delectable ...

Foreigner DON’T FORGET THE CRUSTY BREAD

That would be hand cut chips, artfully arranged on the plate floor tile, with artisan, home baked bread with a playful glass jam jar of iron bru to accompany it.

Irn Bru!
Ffs, my auto correct hates my Scottishness!

NancyDonahue you sound 'right on trend'. Is this your Autumn/Winter collection, or Spring/Summer '18 look?

"This eats well" says DH about a plate containing his dinner, having picked up this ridiculous phrase from Masterchef or similar.

No it doesn't, you tosser, the plate just sits there doing nothing, you are doing the eating.

Absolutely spot on. They are trying so hard to be a lacklustre copy of Alexa Chung. Alexa has style; most of the try-too-hards do not.

There is a thread on Style which is turgid and so earnest. Actually, it’s one of those Number 2, Number 3 etc ones. It started off as Franglais but was taken over by an individual who knows more about fashion that Jean Muir ever did.

... than Jean etc

Come on, Waggymama, it's not a "collection", it's an "edit". Keep up!

Ooh yes the ones that 'pair it with another on trend piece' also get up my nose.
They are clothes. You wear items of clothing with other items, you don't 'pair' them. You don't 'add a pop of colour', you stick on a bright scarf to stop you looking like a goth. You might look fashionable, or even trendy, but never,. ever, on trend. And if you have 'a red lip', or 'a smoky eye', you should be wondering where the other one is, as they do come in pairs.
I feel better now.

When they grant their worshipping audience a “photo included” treat, they pose like 3 year old girls trying to look cute: in pigeon toed style.
