Olive I love your trainers! Am seriously tempted to splash a bit of cash myself...... (am normally a converse girl, so this seems like a natural step forward into summer with a bit of bling in my step....). When I saw the title of this thread, I thought it was back to those crazy stack heeled jobbies that someone was talking about a few weeks ago... Grin

Bozza · 03/05/2006 11:05

Hmmm.....

oliveoil · 03/05/2006 11:08

I actually now prefer the green Dunlop but this would involve Actually Spending money in the bank so can't. Although I am having my eyebrows done at lunch and could saunter casually past Office........

Ledodgyherring · 03/05/2006 11:18

If I was a size 12 Olive I'd want your wardrobe you seem to dress exactly how I would if I was still slim..Not fair!

oliveoil · 03/05/2006 11:21

I am not stroppy coddy baby mwah mwah

LeDodgy - I don't wear anything that you can't wear if you are big(ger) - jeans, trainers, tops.

No boob tube or skin tight dresses here!

Ledodgyherring · 03/05/2006 11:24

I do wear jeans, trainers and tops but they'd look far better if i was slim! My sil is 5"8 and gorg and dresses like you she's also a fashion designer my ambition is to fit into her designs.

Yeah you do it's every Saturday I think it's near Tibb Street, it's full of up and coming designers they have jewellery stalls as well. Sil is only their every other week, she's in Barcelona this weekend to do the boutiques there but if you do go look out for Joy Adams and say hi!

oliveoil · 03/05/2006 11:40
