What do I know, but I have some vaguely like this that I would wear

Panzee · 18/10/2010 20:32

Treggings are new at 48? I remember them the first time round and I'm 33.

Do you remember ski pants? That's what they are. :o

There are some FAB ones - faux fur - in Matalan, also on their website but national demand means I think they only had sizes 3 left at last time of looking, but they were fab and for that price ok to just last a season !

brimfull · 18/10/2010 20:40

will have a look at matalan site

ggirl have you tried the rumpled sock/legwarmer with the ankle boot and skinny trew/tregging?

its veh forgiving, on trend and I think makes sense of that weird bit betwixt boot and trouser

brimfull · 18/10/2010 20:41

panzee-these are nothing like ski pants I knew , not as tight

ooh cyb was hoping you wold come and advise
it's your advice i am following about skinnies

gave up on the skinnys but like thecomfornt of the treggings
mine are bit wrinkly tho

does the rumpled sock look not make your leg look much shorter thoigh

M and S have some...but heel may be too high. I tried them and they were v comfy. Not sure whether they qualify for S and B though! here or these?
There are quite a few others but dont know if I am completely barking up the wrong tree...

brimfull · 20/10/2010 15:35
