My shorts arrived yesterday, photo on profile of shorts and new shoes.
No head as steroids make it swollen and I resemble the love child of Eammon Holmes and an Easter Island statue.
I also had on plain black tee, cropped black cardi and thin gold scarf, which I've decided I don't like so won't be wearing again.

PerryCombover · 20/10/2012 15:39

Netto

When I was on steroids the consultant turned to his student and said
" as you can this patient has moonface a side effect of steroidal use"

I was devastated

NettoSpookerstar · 20/10/2012 16:01

Yes, a Dr said that about me once and then laughed, I went into the car park and cried, and refused to see him again.
Dr Al-Shamma you are a wanker

BettyMoody · 20/10/2012 16:20

Arses

BettyMoody · 20/10/2012 16:20

NettoSpookerstar · 20/10/2012 16:51

I don't know if you remember that I posted about this look a few weeks ago. I am 39 and wanted to know if I was too old. Well I wore the outfit tonight and I feel fab. I have tailored shorts (bargain buy off eBay). Slouchy jumper, thick tights and shoe boots from tesco. so sorry I can't do links.

Thanks to you lot for giving me the confidence to wear it' I felt good Thanks

MaureenCognito · 20/10/2012 22:06

TheBuskersDog · 20/10/2012 23:20

Sorry ladies, I think the Mango shorts look great for my teenage son's (girl) friends, but I think the Gap wool shorts are more flattering for anyone who needs to wear tights with shorts.

MaureenCognito · 20/10/2012 23:21

I have legs like sticks tho
