"One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress."
— Karl Lagerfeld

Its that time of year again when our thoughts turn to winter woollies, Christmas jumpers and party dresses. Come and join our musings and purchasing, high end and high street, we love them all.

Liberty you NEED a leather skirt, it will solve all your going out dilemmas. Love your outfit today.
Viva (?) love the sequinned skirt.

Ootd was my grey flannel above knee a line .
Coral/orange and white striped top.
Coral/orange Beck Sonder Gaard scarf took a long time to type
Black opaque so and ankle boots.
Have had 2 days of outfits I feel really me in
Style ? :
Would you wear tan boots with berry skinnies and grey sweater? I always go for black, but saw a lady wearing tan boots with black trousers today and it looked v good.

linus I look all wrong in trainers as well, I can wear converse and superga but actual proper trainers just look odd on me no matter what i try them with so i gave up on them a long while back now.

I've got a couple of sequin flippy skirts, one in plain black and one in a sort of rose gold and I love them with just a plain tee or plain knitted top. I do only tend to wear them for special evenings out or round christmas time though as even I feel a bit OTT in them for general daytime wear (says she who has more than one tutu skirt which she wears often!) I can definitely see you in one lib I think it would really work for you for a bit of sparkl. I also love the sound of your outfit today, sounds very comfy and cosy yet smart enough to go most places. I think Dry might be right a leather or even suede skirt may be a good buy for you

I've been super casual with my clothes today, berry coloured cord aline skirt, grey nirvana band tee, black ribbed cardigan, black fold over dr marten boots with ribbon ties and black opaques. I was absolutely freezing though first thing so I think it's really nto going to be long before my winter coats come out, my hands were so cold this morning before the bus came that my knuckles turned blue!!

Kitty M&S sequin skirt Much cheaper than the Boden one!

Boden one for 20% plus free del & return A6X8 until 31 Oct

Me + Em one for 20% GCF1

enables useful type of lurker

Linus definitely try the Ash. Much slimmer in the foot and I think they do cobalt blue

Guess what? No reply from Matches again today......

Seriously shop, how long can it take to contact MIH? Their head office is like in shepherd's bush,And matches are in clapham I think, it's not like they are in two different time zones, I think they are just draging you along, till you give up,and the sweater is last season isn't it? Matches as a retailer should refund you now,and then deal with MIH later,

NAP are very good with their customer service, and they refund super qiuck, less than 5 days, and shopbop too, they once sent me an extra current Elliot tee by mistake, and I called them to let them know that and how to return it,as it is not mentioned on the return form, they told me to keep it, , it felt really good,

linus, did you try tods?

Welcome onedog! Do delurk anytime especially with discount codes You don't happen to have an M&S one do you?

shop that is so bad. I really don't see how they can justify holding onto your money.

Thanks Liberty I do have an M&S one...DM texted me with one yesterday! 20% off at M&S, OCT15A2 valid 22-26 Oct I am busy eyeing up cashmere jumpers...

Whoops, buggered that up - M&S code is OCT15A12

Two Ones this is going to get confusing! Welcome. Are you on Pin?
I am going to release fury on Matches tomorrow. Disgusted doesn't even cover it

Welcome onedog! You don't happen to have a Hush code lying around? They have 10% off certain items but I would like more of a discount.

lara I actually have some black Tod's trainers I bought a couple of years ago and they are ok but not very trendy. But maybe I should just give up trying to be trendy.

I usually don't follow trends but this one just looks so good on so many people.

Oh and one I hope you have recovered from your fall!

i'm okay thanks linus just bruised both physically and my pride! i'll be fine though, it would have to be this week when i'm seeing dp at the weekend wouldn't it!!

oneD sounds better than onedog just dont bring hordes of screaming teens our way, okay

onedog. I will link my M&S purchase after I have secured it!

Dry the leather skirt hunt is on! A lot of them are pencil though and I think I need a-line shape especially as I'd like to get flat or block heeled shoes.

Dry what about this M&S dress for you?

Ooh I can see you in that dress on Christmas Day dry!

Oh Liberty I adore that beautiful dress, tempted, but really don't need another dress yes I teally did just say that

Onedog I actually really love you you naughty enabler

Whoever your Pinterest friend was Marsha, I bought those Boden shoes as a result! I had gift voucher and I just fancied a bit of sparkle

Nice work Amber

Thanks for the boot advice everyone, you have convinced me (it wasn't hard) yes better quality boots will last longer and therefore save money
Love that shirt lara
Lib outfit sounds great.
Linus there is definitely a trainer out there for you. Stan Smiths are quite wide and chunky but the marant ones are a bit slimmer and the leather much softer, they may be better for you.
Welcome to onedog and thanks for the codes!
Hope you feel better one and also stokey
went to an exercise class this eve then came home and tidied up as I expect to not be able to move by tomorrow eve
Good luck with Matches tomorrow shop I can't believe they are so bad.
Marsha no advice re taps but maybe try Crosswater www.crosswater.co.uk/category/tap-collections/ they have some traditional styles

Thanks to Marsha and Onedog I have ordered the silver sparkly Mary Janes.
Now I fancy a black sequin skirt, I guess its getting to that silly time of year!

We'll have to have a sparkly shoe meet up

Morning all. What do you think of these boots as a JC alternative?

Thanks for the welcomes

Dry

Linus sadly not! Hush are lacking in their discount codes...

I think I am going to brave returning a cashmere jumper to gap today, bought it a week ago and it has bobbled horrendously. Now, I know cashmere can/does bobble, but I don't have any other that looks like an old rag after being worn 3 times. Ugh. Am tempted to send my DM to do it, she has no shame when it comes to getting her money back!
