I can see that I need to add bootleg jeans to the list (although I don't wear these with heels, only with converse)

anything else... Grin

I must add: Those hideous velour tracksuits whether Juicy Couture or Primark BURN THEM!

A school mum wears her Juicy one with a shiny puffer jacket probably also expensive and Uggs or those snow boot monstrosities in inclement weather shudders

hmm, well I am a fashion stylist and I sometimes wear bootcut jeans!

SchnitzelVonKrumm · 06/02/2011 00:17

Gilets. Hideous.

StopTalkingAndEatYourDinner · 06/02/2011 00:18

Having outed myself as a right snide bitch, I have to say I think it's more about grooming than what you wear. If it's clean, and if it fits - go right ahead. Wear those 'Celtic' silk scarves, see if I care.

But I stand by my right to summarily execute anyone who wears dangly earrings with glasses.

YusMilady - reckon you are in social work Wink

sassy, I couldn't possibly comment. Let's just say that the clients tend to be smarter than the colleagues. The latter seem to think running a comb through one's hair of a morning is a kind of class betrayal.

Because of reading this thread:

I looked at Gap jeans yesterday, but were bootcut and put them back - Wink

Then I honestly nearly snorted out loud when I saw a 20 something woman/girl wearing black cheapo fake ugg type things......and the foot bit was all over to one side (the inside).

oh dear, i often wear dangly earings and need glasses but they don't co ordinate with the frames.

Those people criticising boot leg jeans don't have a clue. Skinny or straight jeans on pear shapes make them look like inverted triangles. The slightly wider lower leg balances out the hips. If you are pear shape, there's not a lot you can do about it. Any pears wearing skinny jeans are deluded as heavy thighs, saddlebags do not need attention drawn to them. Just because it comes in your size does not mean it looks good on you.
