Northener, I'm just trying to imagine some capri stylee pants with it. Don't know if that would work or not?

I don't see why you can't wear it without though.
I didn't see an under 30's sign on the site Wink

Northerner · 02/03/2006 09:23

I'm still only 29 so I'm okay then!

Still, I'll only be wearing it for a night out, don't do short during the day or for the office.

Nbg · 02/03/2006 09:23

MM, I have seen some!

Just trying to think where now?
They were advertised in Red mag.

Northerner · 02/03/2006 09:24

Yes NBG I think it could work with capri pants, and possible leggings.

Bozza · 02/03/2006 09:25

Meggmoo - not sure what you mean by cheap but they had some in Matalan yesterday for about £12 - but would imagine they weren't actually leather.

BonyM · 02/03/2006 09:27

Hmm - am confused now. Read at the weekend(Times I think) that skinny jeans are out and "boyfriend" jeans are in (man cut). Thought this had to be correct seeing as I had finally bought some skinny jeans (I'm always one step behind...).

Northerner · 02/03/2006 09:29

When I was 16/17 I always wore my boyfriends jeans, it did look really cool actually.

I loved him sooooo much, couldn't bear to be parted from him so I wore his jeans to feel closer to him. Grin

Young love.

CoveredInBees · 02/03/2006 09:29

god it's all horrible
went into the shops yesterday and it was all wide red plastic belts and mannequins looking like extras from Pretty in Pink
bleugh

hunkermunker · 02/03/2006 09:33

That red jacket, Cod - aren't you gifted in the nork dept - isn't double-breasted a no-no if this is the case? Always makes me look like a pillar box if I wear double breasted.

(Can this woman not write a post without writing "nork"?!)

Nbg · 02/03/2006 09:33

Stupid link doesn't work!
Go to shop by, shoes, flats and scroll along!

CoveredInBees · 02/03/2006 09:35

double breaster is grim for the large norked

OP posts:
expatinscotland · 02/03/2006 09:40

how can a pregnant lady be size 8? but yes, capris work on pregnant ladies b/c everyone expects her to look like a beached whale, anyway :o.

Northerner · 02/03/2006 09:40

Agree with Mumsnetminx though. M&S is not the place for fashion.

Staples yes. Fashion no.

Northerner · 02/03/2006 09:43

Everytime I wear my culottes to work people comment on either how nice they look or how I've lost half of my trousers (normally the men)

Nbg · 02/03/2006 09:43

Hang on............. \link{http://www.marksandspencer.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Merchant_Id=1&Section_Id=8095&Product_Id=1922149\MaloryT found this for me and it is GORGE.

expatinscotland · 02/03/2006 09:45
