I am loving this look and have seen similar in new look/topshop - anyone going to try it this spring?

Oh and I'm not 18 or 5ft 10 before anyone says that I need to be to wear them Wink

Fregley · 21/01/2012 15:17

Like that. And the red infact

noddyholder · 21/01/2012 15:18

The red is lovely

CointreauVersial · 21/01/2012 15:22

Grr.....I shouldn't have clicked on this thread. Now there's something else I really want to buy for Spring . I think they are fab.

I am a size 10, not too much cottage cheese arse going on, but no spring chicken, to be sure.

Fregley · 21/01/2012 15:24

I'd have to buy coat though wedding is between two venues. Could buy cheap. Have black hat soemwhrer

Bunbaker · 21/01/2012 15:24

There are some similar jeans in Gap at a fraction of the price.

Fregley · 21/01/2012 15:27

I like too nod. I want some slaggy winelpicker type kitten heels to wear with ankle grazers

noddyholder · 21/01/2012 15:28

I wonder how comfy but like the unusual colour and cheap!

noddyholder · 21/01/2012 15:29

I think ankle trousers look great with them. Think I may get them and see.

Dauphin · 21/01/2012 15:34

Liking those shoes Noddy.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 21/01/2012 15:34

Love that Ltd Collection top with the exposed back but it is out of stock. :(

I thought Ltd Collection had really gone downhill lately but that is v v me.

Lavender jeans, on the other hand, I have to say a big 'no' to.

Fregley · 21/01/2012 15:38

I got a blue one too, look on eBay. Often cmes up on there
