PMSL at 'Thrusting Exercises'

I don't like plastic bra straps either. If you need the bra, the top should no be so skipy that the straps show.

Agree on the clear bra straps.

Don't agree on the g-strings - can only be seen if you wear stupidly low-slung trousers!!

I like those but wouldn't touch them with a bargepole. I would look like a washing line on a windy day, walking down the road in those. Would be fine in black.

LadyCodofCOdford · 03/06/2006 15:09

No, I'm short and fat so they would have to be a very big pair of shorts. Two white duvet covers sewn together.

LadyCodofCOdford · 03/06/2006 15:12

What do you suggest we over 40's wear instead of strappy tops Should we suffocate because you are offended?It is not the right of the young and skinny to stay cool you know!

Gingerbear · 03/06/2006 15:32

Arf, am wearing super scaffolding nork support with sleeveless vest muffin top and bingo wings.

I think I look lush.

I'm cancelling my holiday. Can't stand the idea of Cod's disapproval. Am also not eating until August 20th.

MarsLady · 03/06/2006 15:34

I totally agree with LadyCod's op.

laughinglil · 03/06/2006 15:35

hey if your over 40 and look good wear strappy tops! Why cover up and be hot when everyone else can wear what they like you go for it girl!
First time wearing a skirt today just popped round to local shop to buy some bread and butter and some lollies for the kids when... two men were really in my face one of them turned round and said 'cor love you have got beautiful legs...can I have your number?' I was so shocked I just eurgh no and scurried away.. did make me feel good though!

bunny3 · 03/06/2006 15:43

i got leered at by freddie starr last time I wore a short skirt, I have only worn full length trews since.

bunny3 · 03/06/2006 15:44

moondog, get yourself down to bournemouth beach pronto, veiny ball aplenty! especially on the older gentleman. bleurggghh

Snafu · 03/06/2006 15:45

Maybe he could see your hamster, bunny...

Esmummy · 03/06/2006 15:45

EURG I don't feel too great as it is and you 2 are making me feel like puking.
Veiny sacks indeed Shock

Gingerbear · 03/06/2006 15:46

Being overweight never stops 20 somethings from wearing strappy tops, or worse still, crop tops.
