Adult Clothes are so BORING! Where is the fun stuff?

[ShinyMe]

AIBU for wanting non boring clothes? Mumsnet is insisting on advertising loads of wonderful Boden kids outfits at me, including a pink stripy cardigan with applique hamsters wearing flower hats! I want to wear things like this! It's the same everywhere, fabulous colourful kids outfits, nothing for middle aged women. Someone please start making adult clothes that are fun!

YABU - adult clothes should be sensible, navy blue or black, or perhaps a nice floral
YANBU - yep, I too would wear a reversible sequin dinosaur t shirt

Hippy shops( garden of heathens are good)
Sparkle butt
Rosa bloom

Never fully dressed seem fun too

Ebay, charity shops, car boot sales!

There was a thread here about m&s putting snoopy on everything

Sugarhill Brighton has some good stuff. If you like funky leggings, Rainbows and Sprinkles. My dinosaur ones make my toddler v excited

Boden stuff used to go up to age 16 and adults could wear it then. Now they only go up to age 14. There is a seven year old at my school with a green Boden coat with stars on that I particularly like. But instead I have a black coat.

Popsy is full of kitsch patterns

And YANBU. I dress like a 3yo and it brings me joy

Joanie Clothing and Popsy both spring to mind.

Joanie Clothing might be your thing too

Watching with interest 👀

I'm plus size and if I see one more hankey hem with an Eiffel Tower and a flower on it I will cry

Random selection of places I habitually look for inspiration.

Maybe Frugi, Duns, etc, could be your thing?

Ha! I'm fat, I would never fit into a 16 year old's clothes!

I do have a fabulous bright pink coat I found in a sailing shop of all places, but most of my other clothes are so dull.

I saw a lady in brussels sprouts dress the other day and stopped her to tell her it was fabulous. She made it herself though.

I love fun clothes! I already have a pair of hello kitty converse and a tigger embroidered bomber jacket! I have a sweatshirt which has a furry Teddy hanging on a washing line and I always get nice comments on it (This post is so outing to anyone who knows me ) I’m in my early 50’s and at that stage where I couldn’t care less what people think. My criteria for clothes is that they are comfortable and that they make me feel happy.

Kite (though only small adult range)
Sugarhill Brighton
Desigual

That's where I go for my garish clothes!

Run and Fly fit the bill too.

I live in funky leggings! Have a look at Llama Leisure

Check out Woowoo Boutique on Instagram/Etsy.

I have many of these shoes www.irregularchoice.com/

Oooh, I do love a rainbow! Do you know what their sizing is like? Thank you for that link.

Great thread, I'm ordering a shirt and dress from Joanie clothing.

make your own? I belong to some FB sewing groups and am always amazed at the fabrics being used for adult clothes - sparkly, cartoony, dinosaurs, Harry Potter theme, sweary, and so on, not my cup of tea but the fabrics are definitely out there!
