The price is irrelevent, the reason unimportant. I just want to know and I want a link. Oh, and why do you love it?

And......go!

Got these red 'Dorothy' shoes in the Debenhams sale just before Christmas Miss KG Annette - so comfortable & so cool. I keep looking at them when I'm wearing them & Grin - they are like kids shoes only better. They're not available on that site anymore (hence the cache url) but are called Annette & were reduced to £35.

Had to get people to get me a red hat & gloves for Christmas so I could wear them with a black coat.

Red duffle coat from Fat Face this autumn. It was the coat i had been looking for all my life.

Gillybobs, I can't get that link to work, which dress is it?

MissBeehivingUnderTheMistletoe · 03/02/2012 19:15

Oh the shame

I really like it Gilly Smile unfortunately a colleague at work has just bought it, so I can't really.

Gillybobs · 03/02/2012 19:31

If you watch the video of it, it looks really nice. I got it with 25% off last weekend so £26!. Is this the beginning of the end?

MissBeehivingUnderTheMistletoe · 03/02/2012 19:38

Ab-so-lutely

Give in now Grin

MrsJasonBourne · 03/02/2012 20:20

I bought this in black and despite a lot some of the reviewers saying it looks like a dressing gown because it wraps over with a big tie belt, it is a gorgeous coat!

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 03/02/2012 20:24

Oh and I bought a maxi skirt from Topshop of all places (when being dragged around with dds) which I am very, very pleased with - really thick fabric, hangs beautifully, was dead cheap AND makes me look taller and thinner (well, I feel it anyway!).

MegBusset · 03/02/2012 20:25

Fat Fact tweed gilet. I've never had a gilet before. It's bloody lovely.

ChippyMinton · 03/02/2012 20:27

A couple of grey knitted dresses from White Stuff - not on website so can't link. Have made dressing for work so easy on these cold dark mornings - uniqlo heattech top, leggings, boots, dress and out of the door.

this in black. Haven't worn it yet (interview next week) but I keep trying it on and it makes me feel so smart and professional!

This fab top from Label Lab gorge but casual top
I've been rocking it with red (ish) jeans and ankle boots.
Flatters from all angles.

nicknamenotinuse · 03/02/2012 21:23

WaitingForMe that dress is fab!!! Bloody lovely!!!

pootlebug · 03/02/2012 21:37

Drowninginlaundry I am totally utterly in love with that dsquared dress. I have just scoured the internet in an attempt to find a UK10 but can't :( It doesn't by any chance come up very small or very large does it? I can't really order it and try as I'm 35 weeks pregnant so unlikely to fit in it for a little while....

The last thing I bought and truly love was a Reiss coat bought in last years sales like this fashionfinder.asos.com/womens-Reiss/Reiss-Angel-FIT-AND-FLARE-COAT-466481 I really do not in any way love maternity clothing, so it is a while since I bought anything very lovely.

drowninginlaundry · 05/02/2012 08:45

pootlebug it comes up large, I am normally a 12 and ordered a 10 (Italian size 42) which fits perfectly

GraceK · 05/02/2012 08:59

Cool website WaitingForMe - thanks for the url - will be having a wander around there after breakfast.

mrsebojones · 05/02/2012 09:27

Now this thread got me thinking. There have been lots of items that I've loved over the years. My attention span is limited when it comes to clothes though and I do get bored.
Past faves include tan leather riding boots from clarks, a beige cashmere tunic from boden and a navy stem print bag from orla kiely - got it in 2010 sale and still use most days. My current wardrobe faves is a dress from joules that I bought last October. Its navy with a duck print. I think its still on their site. Its so versatile. I wear it by day with a breton top under, thick grey tights and ankle boots. I dress up for dinner out with navy opaques and heels or belt it.

I love it and feel very glam wearing it over dresses or even with jeans and brown knee high boots.

MrsCampbellBlack · 05/02/2012 10:21

Well have practically lived in my barbour arctic down parka - super cosy but also stylish.

Also love my james jeans twiggys, kurt geiger sweep ankle boots and haven't taken this scarf off since it arrived as the colours are just so lovely.

partyhats · 05/02/2012 17:02

MrsCampbellBlack you sound very stylish and I really really love that scarf so much Envy

HazleNutt · 05/02/2012 17:05

LK Bennett Davina dress, in red. Gorgeous.

pootlebug · 05/02/2012 17:06

DrowninginLaundry - thank you (I think! My bank account is maybe less grateful....)
