How about these 'updates every shoe'. Or takes them back to the 1980s - been there once, don't think I'll be doing it again, somehow.

There is nothing new in fashion - everythign is regurgitated!

FIMBOnABroomstick · 18/10/2006 13:40

My mum still has some that she clips to her shoes.

themoon666 · 18/10/2006 13:46

I remember them... and they were very much a Yorkshire thing! Were they not popular around the time that velvet knickerbocker style trousers were in? And pie-crust collars?

TheDaVinciCod · 18/10/2006 13:47

themoon, you appear to be talking about the 1880s not the 1980s

knickerbockers and pie crust collars indeed

BlueBeetle · 18/10/2006 13:51

No the moon is right - I had knickerbockers and pie-crust frill blouses from Laura Ashley, also used to wear a lacy Laura Ashley scarf/small shawl thinh around shoulders. That was standard office wear in about 1987 to 1989.

themoon666 · 18/10/2006 13:51

Nooooo... am serious. Have you not seen the old pics of princess di?

TutterIckOrTreat · 18/10/2006 13:52
