Come in, come in, we have gloriously sarcastic and opinionated staff waiting to serve you. Malory will never know as I have it on the best authority she is safely away for the week.

Who's first?

Ok. What nice new season tops are around for the curvatious?

motherfunkerhunkermunker · 10/02/2006 20:29

Ooh.

OK, three week old baby, need whole new wardrobe as old pre-preg clothes had Seen Better Days. Have £50-worth Next vouchers to start me off.

Bfeeding-friendly tops, please, and nothing low-waisted...

FrannyandZooey · 10/02/2006 20:29

Ah. Our nork expert will be along in a minute.

I really can't think where she's got to

blimey franny you like to live dangerously...
off to 'ave a look

Enid · 10/02/2006 20:35

What ON EARTH do you think you are doing

PeachyClair · 10/02/2006 20:36

OK then. Invite to a dinner dance (usually ends in a bit of a party) two weeks today. Black and white theme, these are very glam people but not the ballgown type. Formal tho, posh hotel. Have a strapless once worn boned corset top in black with a net overlay that goes down a bit, but what with it? Skirt? Trousers?

Me: 32, size 12 (10 waist, 12 rest, short hair about to become very bright pink (currently purple, was scar;et at christmas- you get the idea. Students, eh? ).

Expect to get very drunk, as detest many fellow guests.

Suggestions please.... have access to both Newport and cardiff, but nott wads of cash.

harpsichordcarrier · 10/02/2006 20:36

OK for the big norked/and or bf
I recommend a vest top and then on top a crinkly shirt just buttoned over the norks
this provides a pleasing line
for bf access you unbutton and then hoik up the vest top leaving the shirt to cover the tummy/stretch marks/keep out the chill
and those crinkly shirts don't need ironing
nice vest tops in M&S two for £10

Enid · 10/02/2006 20:37

MI is blessed with acres of norkage I believe and swears by rather lovely v neck silky long sleeve tops from jigsaw.

Enid · 10/02/2006 20:38

PeachyClair · 10/02/2006 20:44

Hey I'm only going coz it's DH's birthday request. had planned to flounce. So, will just get very, very drunk instead.

(There was a thread a while back on should I go where I explained how mean they were, everyone said NO but Dh said 'poor me, it's my birthday sooooon... Damn. got again). Pass the voddie.

Enid · 10/02/2006 20:45

ScummyMummy · 10/02/2006 20:46

harpsichordcarrier · 10/02/2006 20:49

ScummyMummy · 10/02/2006 20:49

Lovely boots, Enid. I had pixie boots that exact colour when I was 14. Like the blue top too.

ScummyMummy · 10/02/2006 20:50
