i have never seen a corset with an arse-bustle attachment before

what an instructive thread this is turning out to be

chibi · 30/05/2014 14:13

mind you if i saw anyone wearing those joggers in public i would think now THERE'S a dame who just does not give a shit, and I would buy said dame a margarita.

maybe i should form a club of likeminded horrortrouser wearers

FORMAL JOGGERS?

How can there be such a thing?!

yazzy85 · 30/05/2014 14:17

most of those have horrendous prints!! what about plain black ones? www.hm.com/gb/product/25507?article=25507-E#article=25507-A

Oh right those! It didn't occur to me for one moment that the stylish ladies of S&B could be taking those seriously.

I think they fall into the category of garment that are worn by gazelle-like 20 year olds to show they can. they are utterly unattractive and if a person wears them and lookers on do not fall to the ground and die of "EYE-AAAARGH!!!" then it is a stone cold fact that the wearer is in the top 0.00001% of good-looking people

JennyOnTheBlocks · 30/05/2014 14:18

The pink flowery ones are only available in 6,8,16 and 18, so someone is obviously taken with them. . .

I'm on the fence with these loose patterned trousers.
I don't like the elastic hem ones
I have a painful abdomen at the moment so cannot bear anything constrictive Sad

Some in M&S looked nice but they had limited sizes,(and online)

calmet · 30/05/2014 14:23

Oh no, you have just posted links to my entire wardrobe of trousers.

70, go to NEXT

The pictures don't do them justice

And they don't need ironing

Amrapaali · 30/05/2014 14:26

Oh, THOSE trousers...pfft, wouldn't touch them with a barge pole.

Not because I'm fashion-savvy, you understand. Its just that no amount of monochrome daisies can hide my thunder thighs.

No, what mine need are these beauties. Look on and weep, ye mortals! Grin

How about these? Some things should be left in the 90s!

My interest is piqued, however I've just had major surgery on my leg and groin so the loose and elastic aspect appeals.

Viva la pantalons de medicine

DeepThought · 30/05/2014 14:51

Yes yes yes but I am sat on a train next to a laydee wearing a v thin black jersey long skirt with WHITE BIG PANTS underneath, she bended round and whatnot to get her bag overhead
My eyes

In her defence she is v slim and pretty, the cahhh

FelixFelix · 30/05/2014 14:54

Jenny I have those pants from Next and they are incredible. I am too wide of arse, and they don't look that horrendous. I'm contemplating buying some more as I only have the black ones!

Cheesymonster · 30/05/2014 14:56

I tried on a Tesco pair and it looked like I was in my PJs so I didn't buy them but damn they were comfy.

MrsMarigold · 30/05/2014 14:58

they are really bad and should be banned.

RonaldMcDonald · 30/05/2014 15:02

Are you speaking of hammer time harem pants?
Over them last summer...I liked them as I am a flat arsed cahhhhh but I looked a dick in them to be fair

JennyOnTheBlocks · 30/05/2014 15:02

I've got the smudge print and the navy/grey flowered ones, Felix

Go get some, let your baggy pants fly and flap in the breeze

Let's face it, unless we're squeezing into ridiculous spanx, our arses are exactly the same size whatever we wear Wink

RonaldMcDonald · 30/05/2014 15:04

These were my darlings ...was taken the piss out of but felt a smugly fashionable

LightastheBreeze · 30/05/2014 15:05

I have bought a couple of pairs from M & S as they do long length, they look better than you would think, a bit like pyjamas though, not sure I would go down the High street in them though. OK for holidays.

I will keep them for a few weeks and if I change my mind they can go back, they have about sold out though. I got them on the 20% off weekend as they weren't that cheap.

RonaldMcDonald · 30/05/2014 15:08

Also ED we don't all have pert or luverly arses like you...beyond arse padding tights it was the best mine had looked in ages

EduardoBarcelona · 30/05/2014 15:10

I REPEAT NOT HAMMER PANTS
