Anyone got any ridiculous clothing wants they KNOW they'd never wear but want anyway?

Its reduced...buy it! I want a jumpsuit but it would make me look like a bag of spanners.

yellowraincoat · 01/07/2012 19:53

I know, I love it!

But I am skint.

I thought that you link was going to be some gorgeously impracticable silk cocktail dress from NAP Grin

Can I ask why you want it???!! Grin

yellowraincoat · 01/07/2012 19:54

It has ears! Shock

I know, I think it's cute.

I tried on such a jumpsuit recently with a view to wearing it for clubbing but it just doesn't suit me, my bum is too small.

I do this with jewellery and accessories. E.g. a bronze bracelet with semi precious stone brambles etc I will never wear it, but I like it very much.

Your bum is too small?!! Envy

JoannaFight · 01/07/2012 20:02

'Bum is too small' Sorry those words together in a sentance...I don't understandConfusedEnvy

yellowraincoat · 01/07/2012 20:03

It wasn't a stealth boast, peggy, I just don't have the sticky out Nicki Minaj style rear that a jumpsuit requires.

Probably the world has a way to go yet before mine's in vogue. The problem with my big bum is that there's big everywhere else to match Hmm

peggyblackett · 01/07/2012 20:10

Im envious. No matter how skinny I get I will always have a backside with the power to eclipse the sun.

SPsFanjoLovesBrokenBiscuits · 01/07/2012 20:14

If I looked like that model I'd walk round naked never mind in a unitard with ears!

GrinGrin at this tread
That jumpsuit is not to my liking ......
I constantly lust after shoes/ boots that would just not suit my lifestyle - have even regularly on occasion been known to purchase said heavenly beautiful and gorgeous impractical shoes in the hopes of getting a life ( wearing them one day)Smile

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 01/07/2012 22:56

I lust after totally impractical jumpers that have beading and embroidery, and are dry clean or hand wash only.

I won't buy them because:
I don't handwash let alone go to Dry Cleaners (gentle machine wash in a net bag)
I have 2 DC - so clothes don't stay clean
I have 2 guinea-pigs who will chew ribbons
I'm a messy eater Blush

It would live in the laundry basket

LaurieFairyCake · 01/07/2012 23:04

The Anya Hindmarch Maxi Zip satchel - currently half price in the sale - about 400 still though.

It looks very touchable.

ColumboIsMyHero · 01/07/2012 23:11

sweet jesus, they do that in a size 18. Please tell me that no-one as lardy as me has actually bought one. I'd look like George Dors' simple sister.

Gettheetoanunnery · 02/07/2012 09:51

I saw a absolutely stunning evening gown once and I wanted it soooo much. It was so elegant, had subtle diamonds ( Shock ) sewn in to it so you would sparkle at every angle.
Sigh
I can't even describe just how gorgeous it was.
£3000 though. And I would have nowhere to wear it apart from the local high street :(

peggy, rejoice your big bum! It's all the fashion these days!
