i ordered some extra while doing boys trousers for school ( tip - vg for skinny boys - the jeans style)
And shoved the following in
www.next.co.uk/women/new-in/casualwear/4 this stud top - very nice the ONLY thing making me think meh is that its sheer at the back, might wear a cami or keep a jacket on. Yes its polyester but sheesh its twenty quid.
www.next.co.uk/x5084s1#760051x50 Snake print jeans - very subtle print but a great fit if you size down
www.next.co.uk/x502164s1#798965x50 these skinny jeans - get normal size and ARENT as high waisted as they look on site.

So all in all hoorah

I really like the Ostrich jumpers and cardis - what do we think about the sparkly skirts? I really like them (both colours, but favouring the berry), wondering about a new Christmas outfit maybe? Not sure if I'm a bit old for sequins in this number though.

iamnotinterestedinyourkids · 31/08/2012 17:12

that sewuin wrap one? i liked.
my theory with sequins is always to use them on your slimmest part - so if you have a tiny slim top half get a top and long slim legs a bottom.

believe me i have tried a top on an E bust and its not naice

Me too like them but can't do on top half although tried a jacket in zara loose open thing but knew i would never wear it that looked ok. I have a scarf which looks good but its thin.Me in a shirt is bad enough without sequins Grin. Lovely on slim top though

noddyholder · 31/08/2012 17:46

iamnotinterestedinyourkids · 31/08/2012 17:50

I love them with heels or flats. Have similar in navy and wear a lot but a bit worn out

noddyholder · 31/08/2012 17:55

YingTongIddleIPo · 31/08/2012 18:13

iamnotinterestedinyourkids · 31/08/2012 18:33

i tried with my lovely suede portas ankle boots and they all looked odd - the crop finished at the wrong bit, looked like they had shrunk in the wash

noddyholder · 31/08/2012 18:35

noddyholder · 31/08/2012 18:35

iamnotinterestedinyourkids · 31/08/2012 18:36
