The phrase "Breton top" makes me heave

[MaureenShit]

No one says this in rl. They say "a stripey t shirt " fgs

My budget isn't as large as that of some other posters so I buy less, but since reading threads on S &B, I think I buy better quality and am happier with what I have. In the same way that I enjoy magazines that feature outfits out of my price range, I also enjoy reading contributions from posters with more generous budgets. It all feeds into my developing sense of what looks good now and my own confidence in my choices. There will always be people who disagree and that's ok too.

Any tips on how I can find the new A&W? I used to love a few clicks on the links and following a whole group of people was so much more interesting than individual fashion bloggers. I could never join 'full-time' though, I wouldn't keep up with it, I was more of a lurker!

I have a Breton top & dress - I'm out and proud. Also have Ash boots and a few other items thanks to the old threads. In reality 'a trouser' only ever gets used in very particular circumstances, when the trouser in question is hypothetical.

Sssh it's a secret

I'd always assumed that too, but perhaps was wrong.

I need to join them at the start though....by the time there are 851 pages I can't be bothered to read it all!!!

I realised today that my Breton top (bought on holiday in Brittany from a sailing shop) is the oldest piece of clothing that I own and regularly wear: I have had it nearly 20 years...

Well I bought 2 BRETON tops today the lady at the next till was buying 3! I think it was maureenOP

Just to say that MN Vogue volume 4 has just started so jump aboard! They've made me v welcome.

Ooooh I love you sleep!!!
I'm off to Vogue volume 4

Miss Mr shit is clearly bored and whittling away mindlessly, hoping to provoke. Pity he she is not witty enough.

One yearns for a fat wet fish to pummel the numpties who get 'stabby'.

Maureen has been here for years and is a S&B regular, just under various name changes.

Nothing wrong with mildly taking the piss out of fashion terminology is there?

Oh, I do apologise, however, if ever there's a poster who evokes the image of celebrated Miranda with penis, she is it. Purely based on her styleeee.

Who or what is 'celebrated Miranda with penis'???

Oh she'll just love being compared to Miranda

Er why was my reply deleted??

Yes sleep why, now no one will know why I love you! can't remember what you did but I thought it was great....go on say it again!

@sleepdodger

Er why was my reply deleted??

Because we can still see the posts in strikeout font and we don't allow personal attacks.

Thanks

Hi Olivia
I know strike out can be seen
I'm unsure as to what my personal attack was?
I referenced someone's striped shirt as boring in a tongue in cheek way whilst the whole thread is talking about people saying a certain way of walking is irritating etc yet my point was I work in a world where that language is common
Shrugs

Maybe Mo and Olivia are one and the same?

I think it is because you called the op shit in strikethrough.

Well, that's very un S&B

I didn't say shit

To be fair she does have "shit" in her name though, so it's kind of a fact ........
