I got me some new Banana Republic trewsers

[BettyMoody]

these here bananarepublic.gap.co.uk/browse/product.do?pid=302928524&cid=1016880&locale=en_GB in 'cabernet' ( snurk)
I am thinking of block ankle boots in the winter. Or black heels now ( or some grey leopard I have)

TOPS though - I want to avoid being too matchy and am thinking of black and white... any opinions?

I love mustard yellow with burgundy,

yowsers - too brave for me I think!!
the are quite a strong ' cabernet'

Like this. Too much?

yup. My new office is SCORCHIO so this year I can just wear tops.
was sadly hovering over bloody Boden paris shirt in noir et blanc but think is a con - even with money off

What a lovely shirt - but £70 for viscose, blimey!

I want those, in that colour, too. Was a bit nobbed off when I went in last night and they didn't have 30% off like virtually everything else did

I will end up buying them, and will wear them with navy, grey or black. Boring... I know

Nice trews. White drapey top and black blazer maybe?

How come you've got an office? Have you been promoted? (Insert big nose emoticon here)

How funny - I tried those trousers on, too, and really liked the fit. I wear burgundy w white, cream and black. Also seen it w pale pink, which of course would depend on the burgundy, as to whether it looks good or no.

Avoid the Paris blouse - it creases to buggery.

Powder blue goes beautifully with Cabernet, gives a lovely mid century feel.

I tried them on too in black but they weren't right. I love the colour though, it's lush

Pale blue and burgundy - too old-school Aston Villa in my book.

Remus I say office to be oblique.

Silly me.

I'm banning self from any more black bottoms

In case I turn into polyester black trouser woman.

Tell me you didn't get them in Tall ( sobs quietly into her short legged trews)

Yup! Tall! They are crops tho
