new people always welcome to this thread where we ramble on about clothes and life generally. We are friendly. Happy Christmas everyone

dry I gave my black Verdugo pair to shop as a) they were to big and b) I never really wore them much before as the style was not quite right for me.

I think lib has some other Paige skinnies that I might try next but I have forgotten the name.

santa gorgeous skirt! I saw an IM Etoile jacket that has taken my fancy on Matches but the ones I have tried in the past have always been so scratchy so I'm not sure about this one.

blair I have bought Liquid Gold at a discount in the past but don't remember where. Maybe Beautybay?

I use it on and off and it does makes my skin look more even toned but it doesn't do much else.

dry I can't imagine you looking mutton as you're far too classy with the rest of your attire. I like skirts just above or on the knee.

My kids must be well hard- no film seems to upset them

Just about to go out for tea with dh and dc. Sod dry January-we're leaving the car and getting a cab back . I've got changed and have a long silver necklace on with tassel pendant (links of London). Dh has said it looks like something that you'd find on a curtain .

I love my Paige Hoxtons Linus, they're high-rise though.

That is the top I was thinking of Justa but would probably get the plum. What didn't you like about it? I'm worried it's a bit high cut for my boobs like Muddling said. I struggle with tops too, skinny back and big boobs is not a good mix!

There are some lovely things in the Me&Em sale but I think I want to hold off a bit on buying. I need to follow the example of all of you doing a wardrobe cull. Also I am going low sugar for Jan and Feb and will be interested to see if it leads to a drop in size.

Dry the Verdugos are tight on the ankle, if pissed I struggle to get then off my size 7.5 feet

I still wear super short skirts, but I've just turned 30. I'm not planning on stopping any time soon mind!

rehabs not for me then Shop

If I could find a short skirt I like I'd still wear it with boots and opaques (Shop aged 42 and a quarter, 5ft 10)

"Rehabs" blimey I know I've over done it a bit this Xmas, but not that much ....I meant "perhaps"

Rehabs not for me either Dry - but I"m guessing that's not what you meant?

X post. BTW I'm not sure anyone can beat you now for setting up new threads. Are you going to go for it with MNV51?

They tried to make me go to rehab but I said no no no.......... RIP Amy

Re: those Me &Em tops I have the one in plum which I love, although the material feels funny when it's wet. I'm small of chest so it fits fine.

I adore Amy Betty - I was lucky enough to see her live in the very early days - before it went wrong.
I'm catching up on old Graham Nortons and they're talking about EsioTrot. Will have to watch on catch up - it looks stunning. Judi Dench is just beautiful, I love every wrinkle on her. So nice to see someone ageing naturally.

I meant to watch EsioTrot but got distracted and then fell asleep. Must watch it on catch up before it disappears.

I agree about Judi Dench Shop she is so graceful and elegant isn't she?

I loved esiotrot I think it was the best thing on TV over Christmas.

I need to replace our home phones anyone any ideas which ones are good? Our last set of three have lasted less than 18months.

Come

On

Then
