I like the look of some on the website and the way they've been styled on the models with tights/boots/beanie.

I'm just concerned they actually might look frump tastic in RL??

Has anyone got one? How do they style them? Of course I would not be teaming them with my CK bag and shoes as that would e ridiculous.....

Just wanted to check I wasn't entering mumsy territory as they're pretty ££££...

I think they'd look good if you were stick thin and 20 ish. If I put one on I would instantly turn into the Queen Mother!

Yes, that's how I'd imagine the CK ones to look good. Perhaps if you wore it with contrasting colour cardigan/tights and boots? I'm thinking Caitlin Moran stylee...?
