I reckon dull gold with suitably slouchy knitwear would look good.

Tinselrella · 20/12/2011 18:33

If you're 18, 5'11 and a size 8 then I say go for it. Hth Xmas Grin

over30sdisco · 20/12/2011 18:33

chasingpaper · 20/12/2011 18:33

Slouchy knitwear even on Christmas day?

Got any suggestions?

I guess my biggest problem is that I live in jeans and took it to the extreme when I bought the gold pair I mean ffs a grey pair of cigar pants would have been fine

And I don't think you need to be 18, tall and skinny either.

Looks down at skinny leather trousers on nearly 40 year old 5ft self Wink

chasingpaper · 20/12/2011 18:36

Omg even worse they're from NEXT

OP posts:
MrsCampbellBlack · 20/12/2011 18:39

Or if knitwear too hot - how about a silk shirt - sort of equipment like but cheaper

shinyblackgrape · 20/12/2011 18:39

They looked quite nice on Jimmy Saville on Jim'll Fix It Xmas Grin

Is that the look you were aiming for?

over30sdisco · 20/12/2011 18:50

oh go for it am sure they will be groovy can you link them though can't find them on their site? i'd love some silver ones Grin

MrsCampbellBlack · 20/12/2011 18:51

Zara had some nice silver ones - well more pewter but lovely.

chasingpaper · 20/12/2011 18:56

Ok ok get the message black grape!

I did wear them before with a silk shirt -a floaty one- but I've gone right off them now, and rightly so

Just hope someone like icod doesn't see the thread before it withers away into oblivion

Bllx that's me stuff for Xmas day no idea what to wear now!

Do you know what my biggest problem is at the moment? My norks are just huge (prob from breastfeeding) prob only 38D but on my 5'2" frame look huge. Everything I own doesn't quite look right and I'm loathe to buy anything new just in case it doesn't fit when my norks resume normal service hmmmm. Will have a think. Just about to go out

OP posts:
shinyblackgrape · 20/12/2011 19:01

Now then, now then chasing Xmas Grin

I've just seen cod on the chat thread lampooning people who wear non-skinny jeans with knee high boots. You'd better watch out!

Do you want me to go and ask her advice as to wearing non-skinny gold jeans with said boots?

freerangeeggs · 20/12/2011 19:02

I would wear them. In fact I quite fancy some. River Island you say?

shinyblackgrape · 20/12/2011 19:04

On a more serious note - I am quite large of norks and am wearing this dress on Christmas day - this dress

It looks v nice (even if I do say so my self) but feel free to tell me I look drab and boring! If not, it might work?

mrsravelstein · 20/12/2011 19:06

i'm premenstrual and was tempted to a pair of leopard print skinny jeans in dorothy perkins. i resisted, and will see if they still look as appealing next week when hormones calmed down. but the gold ones sound even better. this may be a good sign or a bad sign, i'm not sure.

thenightsky · 20/12/2011 19:13

I think I know the old gold jeans in Next of which you speak... I lingered over them a little too long myself. Actually I even tried them on Blush They were far too short thank god.

LynetteScavo · 20/12/2011 19:15

If I were 20 years younger I would so buy a pair. But then I was 2 sizes smaller 20 years ago.
