Skinny jeans for £8. Short sleeved v neck jumpers for £6 and a lovely bat wing cardigan for £10.

I was gutted as had bought too much in the week but next week I will go back and buy a few bits.

do they still do maternity clothes does anyone know?

Smurfgirl · 02/09/2006 22:42

Oh I got loads from there the other day. Loads of basic tees and some combats. Some patent grey flats and a coat as well. V.good.

BrummieMomInMerthyr · 02/09/2006 22:45

Tommy - they do but only in certain stores. They don't do them in my local but do in my mom's.

fattiemumma · 02/09/2006 22:48

I love ASDA.

DS is called GEorge so it was a bit of a joke when he was little to get him stuff from asda but i really like the fact youcan get high fashion stuff and not panic if they get it marked as it only costs tiny amounts.

Tommy · 02/09/2006 22:49

thanks - guess I'll have to phone around.
I asked in the new Tesco Home Shop the other day if they did maternity clothes and the dopey girl I'd asked said "We do a larger ladies range from size 18 but not actual maternity clothes..."
Duh.

emsiewill · 02/09/2006 22:51

I was in Asda today, and thought Colleen looked awful in the picture of her in skinny jeans with an enormous cardy on top, sort of big waistband on it. Not nice at all

BrummieMomInMerthyr · 02/09/2006 22:54

i had that in matalan, bit crap really!! try the asda or george website tommy, they might tell you which stores do mat clothes, i can tell you if you live near birmingham!!

Tommy · 02/09/2006 23:00

bit too far to travel from Southampton but I'll check out the website [- thanks grin]

Tommy · 02/09/2006 23:00

obviously that was supposed to be

LaDiDaDi · 02/09/2006 23:00

I have bought two lovely tops in asda in the past 2 weeks ! A nice pink one with cap puff sleeves iyswim and a round neck with three little buttons going down from it, only £8. The second is a vivid blue with short kind of swishy sleeves that goes into a little cape bit around the back, only £6. Wore it to a friend's house last night and no one could guess where it was from .

LaDiDaDi · 02/09/2006 23:04

This is the blue one: \link{http://www.george.com/womens/fast_fashion_sept/3/

LaDiDaDi · 02/09/2006 23:04

Or perhaps not as it seems that link doesn't work!

CountessDracula · 02/09/2006 23:28

their clothes are so cheap but the poor kids in sweatshops that make them It makes me so sad

Northerner · 02/09/2006 23:31

She looks so uncomfortable in that TV advert - have you seen her walk in the final scene?! It's shocking. She's walking like she's off down the mine. Why didn't they use a proper model FGS or at least someone who can walk properly. And those George bags she's carrying - what's that all about? Why hasn't she got those see through plaggy bags with a bit of George sellotape like the rest of us?

divamummy · 04/09/2006 19:36

you said it northener. made me laugh

mum2sam · 12/09/2006 13:45

i do like the stripey jumper although ive been in to asda 3 times now and theyve completely sold out of all the clothes she was advertising

expatinscotland · 12/09/2006 13:50

I refuse to buy clothes from George. First of all, they are anti-union in the US and don't pay a living wage.

Secondly, what kind of message does using Colleen send to my British daughters?

Be a materialistic, air-headed WAG - and one to a guy who admitted using prostitutes - and you'll be rewarded w/contracts and magazine colums.

Yeah, I SO want them thinking that's what a woman is worth.

No, thanks!

So I'm just saying NO to George and ASDA, I don't care how cheap they are.

southeastastra · 12/09/2006 13:52

and colleen walks like she has a brick up her a*se in that ad.

expatinscotland · 12/09/2006 13:52

She looks like a hooch.

Well, she IS a hooch, after all, IMO.
