I wondered that a while back.
I was however looking for something basic, relatively stylish and not remotely going to go out of fashion anytime soon.

Some bits I think are very good, others (esp patterned things) aren't.

The coat, I like.

I like it.

good cuffs and toggles

Betty Jackson stuff is amazing- I have a couple of her cowl necked dresses and the cut and quality is fantastic.

I am 32 if that makes any difference?

Always wondered how old you wereWink

tethersend · 07/09/2010 18:04

Because of my elegant and timeless taste?

Or because I come across as a petulant teenager?

MissWooWoo · 07/09/2010 18:40

actually tethers if I may be familiar I actually thought you were a little bit older because you seemed so learn-ed and wise on these 'ere S&B threads

The winter coat I bought last year was from @Collection' or some similar name - which I believe is the proper OAP bit of Debenhams.

That looks like a good coat, if you like camel.

The neckline looks weird, unless that is a hood. Otherwise a good coat.

I like it

MissWooWoo · 07/09/2010 19:08

ah yes but you don't look it tethers you just exude the wisdom and elegance of a lady that lunches

No no no you really mustn't buy that duffle coat Shock. Unless you are about 90 and wear in with a silk headscarf...
