Argh! There is no hope for me now. I can never resist a bargain.

Just recently bought a gorgeous beautiful quality leather skirt.

www.houseoffraser.co.uk/Kaliko+Leather+Pencil+Skirt%C2%A0/207072408,default,pd.html

Its beautiful and a perfect length for me at 5.5. it is also very comfortable. Its straight rather than pencil and its a really good price :)
Buy one before it sells out!!!

Leather skirts like this at this price are really hard to find. I did size up as leather has no give. It fits beautifully.

I bought this coat from Kaliko last year, and it's beautiful. Well-cut and very warm.

tethersend · 06/12/2014 17:35

A bargain at that price.

Greengardenpixie · 06/12/2014 17:45

OneHandFlapping · 06/12/2014 17:59

Boohoo! Very upset by all the generous sizing comments. Thought I had slimmed down. Wore (different) Kaliko dresses to both my daughters' weddings.

MaudantWit · 07/12/2014 14:27

Yup, I have just bought a coat and a top on that website that I don't, strictly speaking, need. Having seen their prices, and having always bought my coats from Windsmoor and the like, in search of good quality, I doubt I'll buy costs anywhere else from now on!

BikeRunSki · 07/12/2014 14:34

That Kaliko coat is gorgeous..

Coffeeinapapercup · 07/12/2014 16:45

Thethersend- is that coat warm?

Coffeeinapapercup · 07/12/2014 17:02

And how long is it?

Coffeeinapapercup · 07/12/2014 17:05

Sorry for the hijack but it's in stock for me

MuseumOfHam · 07/12/2014 17:10

I have a pair of Kaliko shoes which have been my smart occasion (interview, big conference etc) work shoes for the last 15 years. They still look great. They never were, and never will be, at the cutting edge of fashion, but that's not what they're for.

legoqueen · 07/12/2014 22:33

The first ever grown up coat I bought for myself was a Kaliko - how I loved it! Very good quality, really flattering cut. Somehow I've just bought the leather pencil skirt...there's an extra discount tonight Grin

tethersend · 07/12/2014 22:45

Yes, it's very warm. It's knee length on me; I'm 5'7"

Coffeeinapapercup · 08/12/2014 16:55

Thanks tethers. Second recommendation if yours I've gone on an got

HarveySpecter · 08/12/2014 20:29

Tethers - how long is the coat on you and is it true to size. I am a very busty 14 with super long arms!

AlannahJ · 08/12/2014 21:09

Have been enjoying reading this thread and looking at the Last Season website ( have already put 3 items in basket ! )

Can't decide if this top would look frumpy or not ? I'm 46

Opinions welcome

tethersend · 08/12/2014 21:16

It's knee length on me, and size down.

Coffee, I'm intrigued as to what the other thing was... Wink

BeHoHoHove · 08/12/2014 22:11

alannahj
I've got that top in a couple of colours. I wear them with slim fit trousers for the office and they're very flattering.

AlannahJ · 08/12/2014 22:15

Thanks BeHoHoHove

Beautydiva · 09/12/2014 16:16

Asbright thanks for the info.

Tether - that coat is nice , shame not available in my size .

I'm in my early 30s and have no idea if I'm too young /too old for this Brand .

I ordered through kaliko website using a code for 20% off and got another 10% through topcashback website. Smile
Their sizes are generous . I'm size 14 but size 12 fits me perfectly. Smile
