I need some glitter wear, but I need it THIN due to norkage. Can't do thick jumpers at all.
Away my pretties and find me some.

Bought goldy fine knit in Whistles last weekend, is lovely with el Primarko skinnies.

SuePurblybilt · 28/10/2012 15:02

What rules for velvet then, similar? Or is that sufficiently autumnal to be OK before? Surely not crushed velvet?

PlumSykes · 28/10/2012 15:08

I suspect crushed velvet never okay, except in scarf form, and then on the over 70s.

I remember your M&S sequin skirt from a coupla years ago. You were all "See my new skirt" and everyone was all "GASP! It's sooo short!!" and you flounced about saying you had the legs yadada.

Now we've all got one.

MaureenCognito · 28/10/2012 15:37
