Here

I'm sure you've seen it, but it's bright, machine washable and fifteen quid. I like it anyway

Thank you for remembering my plight!

It is a good price but I must admit that I am rather scared of the yellow-ness of it.

I wore my military-esque one yesterday with jeans and a striped t-shirt. It was comfortable and cool, so am pleased with that.

What colours can somebody who is frightened of colour wear?

It's not bright yellow more like a mustard yellow. I tried the dress on and loved it .

BelligerentGhoul · 27/07/2010 18:45

Thanks Rexy. It still scares me though! I am quite sallow and think that yellow would not be A Good Look for me, unfortunately.

I am still obsessed by Hi-de-Hi. You should all get matching yellow jackets

I think it sounds like an excellent idea - am v tempted indeed.

Still quite fancy departmental sequins too.

Am I mad to be looking longingly at this one?

tethersend · 28/07/2010 08:56

It's lovely, had looked at it myself- but it will date very quickly...

You are right, of course. So sweet though - it reminds me of when I was 19.

Peach lace in Tammy Girl...

Maybe we should get it and keep it until the next revival?

Tammy Girl - omg! I wore a black denim skater skirt from Tammy Girl, aged 11, until I was 26! Sighs for her lost waistline....

Thanks Tethers - I remain an e-bay virgin though!

Tried a gorgeous one in Hobbs today This one I think, which was v nice and a good reduction (and the most beautiful lining!) but dry clean only.

If it is still available after I get back from holiday (and if I've got any money left!) I might reconsider it.

tethersend · 01/08/2010 19:27

Oh that's the outlet, not real ebay. It's like buying from any online shop- you just need a paypal account.

Which Hobbs jacket is it? Their site just links to all their jackets...

Oh, and have a nice time on holiday. I'm

No Paypal.

It's called NW3 Peplum jacket - in the sale bit (not the clearance bit).

Thanks re: holiday - can't wait.
