I chortled when I saw this DM link

Disclaimer: Yes I do realise that what she wears is not as important as her policies but even so.....

oh, I like having a Home Secretary that wears nice colourful coats.

That's true seth, her clothes definitely have personality.

and she has quite good legs too

anyway I have to log off now, probably just as well as I seem to be talking to myself....

yes, aren't the boots great?

Thing is, because she is in the public eye and the media loves picking up on well-known women's fashion mistakes so they can laugh and point (specially the DM) she doesn't have much margin for error - if you or I bought an item of clothing and wore it once and decided it was a mistake the only people who would know would be the people that happened to see it the one time we wore it. Whereas for her it will be immortalised forever. So I quite like the fact that she still makes risky fashion choices despite all this.

And I love her hair - it always looks so great and confident when an elegant woman (as she usually is) dares to keep grey hair IMO.

She's had that coat for years (is our MP ).

LOL Mardy, have just noticed it's just you and me who are excessively interested in the Home Secretary and her clothes.

You, me and the Daily Mail I mean.

does it look better or worse in RL Mollie?

About the same. At least she is easily recognisable from a distance!

Agree - the boots are great.

it looks bloody awful and she needs to take advice from someone with dress sense and style.

The coat isn't the best. FWIW it looks a size too big.

She normally has lovely shoes so she must know a bit about fashion.

Oh my eyes.

OK I confess I've been looking at the DM website again

She's got a whole wardrobe full!
