I don't know what I was expecting, but those shoes weren't it! Grin As for the onesie, well all I can say is, no wonder the model was laughing. In embarrassment.

LadyIsabellasHollyWreath · 09/01/2014 07:39

I like the shoes; I'd have worn the hell out of them when I was a teen. Problematic for anyone over the age of 25 I grant you. And the onesie isn't M&S's fault - people just insist on buying the bastards, so they're meeting actual public demand. I don't think anyone's demanding a navy floral jumpsuit that will only suit women with the proportions of a silver birch tree though.

I have a tabby cat onesie and no shame.

southeastastra · 09/01/2014 08:06

they've brought back my favourite pants so i'm happy.

Kikithecat · 09/01/2014 08:06

The derision of this Percy Pig onesie seems to imply that other onesie's are tasteful???

Bunbaker · 09/01/2014 09:05

They have discontinued my favourite pants so I'm not happy.

dexter73 · 09/01/2014 10:51

And mine Bunbaker. Luckily I found some in a M&S outlet so I bought 6 pairs! Should keep me going while I search for the new favourite pants!

bettybleep · 09/01/2014 11:15

I thought maureen was drnick after Prozac/therapy/ name change.. I need to get out more don't I?

LittleBabyPigsus · 09/01/2014 11:25

I like the shoes Blush Is it OK because I'm 24? I'd wear them with something quite plain though. I quite like retro/'granny chic' stuff from charity shops and to me those shoes are kind of kawaii grandma. Bit weird to find them in M&S though, I can't imagine many people would wear them.

LittleBabyPigsus · 09/01/2014 11:30

Also I don't think the onesie is too heinous, or rather isn't any worse than any other onesie. My opposition to onesies is that I don't want to take my top off in order to go to the loo! I did get a fleecey poncho pyjama top thing for Christmas though and really like it though Blush

It's this.

Before I get chased out of S&B forever, I would never wear it outside the house! Strictly nightwear/loungewear.
