Anyone looking for a capsule wardrobe, whatever your size, age or shape take a trip to debinhams.

I've just spent 2 hours with a lovely lady called jenny trying on loads of things I would never normally try on and have a new wardrobe and feel my age again (25) less frumpy and very stylish.

I am so very pleased :o

ooooh! last time i went into debenhams they were frumpy, has it all changed?

addictedisback · 27/08/2012 15:30

Probably not but I was VERY frumpy before so I guess its a huge improvement!

AAww no we wont! i wont anyway!

it's lovely to feel good about yourself. especially if you feel youve been in a bit of a rut! good on you for doing it! bet it was a bit scary!

i felt fairly good about myself today until i realised the my dress is maybe better suited as a top? luckily i have thick wooly tights on and have not left the house Grin!

Lovely clothes though I can see the models aren't quite styling them to their full potential.

Might have to have a look at Betty Jackson myself...

Lush dress!

I bought a summer wedding frock in Debenhams, wore it to two weddings and was admired greatly. Nowt wrong with it.

Also I can't help noticing that their inhouse brands Mantaray and Red Herring seem to do really well on eBay.

I spent my entire pg in Red Herring maternity gear. Was very pretty (summer bump).

All looks great - I love the dress for the wedding. Bet you can't wait for it to get a bit cooler to wear them all now!
