Silverstreaks I was with you all the way. Till "mustard". Now you're dead to me

FrustratedFrugal · 08/11/2015 18:22

Handily that's where I storage my cocktail dresses. So you'll see me in sequins, not sure about how to accessorize them though.

Lulabellarama · 08/11/2015 18:25

Can one wear a sequin in an apocalypse situation? I'd have thought seasonality rules still apply, ie December only.

73dexter · 08/11/2015 18:26

I think a machete would go well with a cocktail dress in the event of the zombie apocalypse. Maybe a flame thrower.

thenightsky · 08/11/2015 18:28

Bloody hell remus I've got a top exactly like that! Shock

I'm sort, me. Grin

MrsCampbellBlack · 08/11/2015 18:28

Chanel and diamonds.

Iwasworried · 08/11/2015 18:28

Sequins + biker boots and artfully rumpled hair would work the prom/Buffy vibe quite well in any season, surely?

TheSpottedZebra · 08/11/2015 18:32

Silverstreaks I admire your attention to detail, but I think you may be wearing your pants too near the ground. I'm concerned that unless you pull them quite a lot up, you may trip. Are you willing to be the running damsel, who trips and dies?

I shall be wearing a cape I think. Made of pleather. Or maybe just my dressing gown on my head.
Deffo going for Merrells though. I've had a pair in my shed for quite a few years, in the vain hope that I might go backpacking again. It would be nice to get a chance to wear them, and prove that I was right to hoard them for way too many years.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 08/11/2015 18:39

I like the idea of a leather cape, in theory, but, as a short-arse, I'd almost certainly fall over the damn thing.

TheNightSky - Really? Where was yours from? It looks v tempting as a lounging around the house waiting for zombies to attack (or not) sort of top.

Is it before or after labor day?

BrendaandEddie · 08/11/2015 18:42

Ball gown, hiking boots and barbour (mainly for the pockets). And sensible knickers.

whatdoIget · 08/11/2015 18:53

Whatever you picked up while on a looting raid Smile

Silverstreaks · 08/11/2015 19:10

Bitoutofpractice that is signal clothing. Whip up the jumper, flash, signal (to the living) then neutral again.

Zebra pants before jeggings obviously. I shall not be the screamer or the tripping damsel, or wearing a cape! Have you not seen The Incredible? Don't you know the inherent dangers of wearing a cape?

Stick to the dressing gown. Shorty one in pleather. Nice.

MmeGuillotine · 08/11/2015 19:22

I already have green hair so I'll be going on for a full on Tank Girl look. Without the massively endowed kangaroo boyfriend however.

thenightsky · 08/11/2015 19:25

Remus the jugular-protecting top was from Next, approx 2001 when 15 year old DD insisted she wanted to get up at stupid o'clock one boxing day morning to queue round the block... Hmm

AmberNectarine · 08/11/2015 19:34

In the event of a zombie apocalypse/global pandemic, the fashion aspect is the only one if be prepped for. I have enough clothes to last the rest of my life. Tinned fruit, however, is in scant supply.

BrendaandEddie · 08/11/2015 19:37

has anyone said 'jamas or bleachy track pants?

OP posts:
pestilence13610 · 08/11/2015 19:56

No Brenda no, this is Style and Beauty.
Amber just thought, we have no tinned peaches either Hmm

TheSpottedZebra · 08/11/2015 19:57

Silverstreaks you are a genius. Better than Kanye (leather joggers! He invented them!) even. You've just come up with the pleather, be-caped dressing gown. It will be amazing. I can eat my soup in comfort, wipe clean, then swoosh into any situation, from taking out the bins, to ZombieGeddon.

BrendaandEddie · 08/11/2015 19:59

oh

ok then
