thast all so far

I am going up to Sloane Square tomorrow, and am reading this avidly.
I am planning my outfit around Rigby and Pellar bra, and riding boots.
Is a jaunty scarf appropriate?

Barbour jacket will go very nice strep.

lol areound a BRA?

I would not wear the pink cardy but I like the style.

this is lovely and if they had got my size in JL on Sat I would have bought it

and

this one is also nice

Fio, you must! Did you keep the receipts?

i have the gap bikers from last season... wish i'd bought two pairs now as it would have pretty much been cheaper than getting them soled and heeled.

ok will get jeans sorted. thank you. unfortunately my shape never looks really right in skinnies so Iam pleased about the return of other shapes.

i generally dont like wearing nice "work" type coats with children as they get grubby. may have to find balance between dry cleaning bill and looking crap.

Strep - French Connection jeans - straight legged ones, are fantastic.

Have a look in M&S. They often have washable coats.

if you want a quilted jacekt zara do em

Biker boots irritate me hugely, but that is because I have actual biker boots adn they look like this
Very good boots, not so much with the style.

I like these but DH would kill me if I tried to get on the bike in them, all that buckling is bad for the paint job donchaknow

quilted jackets are known as 'stuff and nonsense' jackets in my family

wow. awesome linkfail there.
cant find what I was trying to link to either, but you get the idea

Aagh, quilted jackets?

Seriously? They are so sloaney vile.

all the youngsters have em i fear
i know

This kind of thing

Any form of quilting will make you look michelin.

I have a black one from aldi for rain/snowy days when no fecker will see me.

Mme - noooooooooooooo. You need to be ultra ultra thin to wear one of those long puffa coats - otherwise you will look like a trussed up sausage.

unless you are mucking out the horse after a day at teh hunt quilted jackets are pretentious, there does appear to be a caveat to allow italians to get away with this however.
