Going out for the first time in a long time - think bars, cocktails, clubbing if I don't fall asleep, all central London. Planning on wearing the following, but not feeling that confident. If you think it's inappropriate/dowdy/whatevs, link me up with something better!!! Budget:minimal

these shoes
these coated skinnies
this silk T

Googling tells me only “Camembert de Normandie” is protected. So I imagine an American producer can't say West Country cheddar for example but can say New York cheddar.

BrendaandEddie · 10/11/2015 17:57

like the shoes - wrong for those trousers though.

SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 17:57

These flats?

squoosh · 10/11/2015 17:58

Wrong thread!

Don't wear camembert on your feet!

Scarletforya · 10/11/2015 17:58

The shoes aren't good. They're a bit Grannyish.

I like the skinnies.

BrendaandEddie · 10/11/2015 17:58

squoosh?

SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 18:02

Or these heeled sandals?

OP posts:
SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 18:04

Only got a size 6 left in the ones you linked bren so am going for muffin control!

I think the skinnies look quite cheap personally, I'd go for disco jeans for £19.

I really like the top if it's the one I think it is - the silk tshirt? Which colour did you get?

The shoes would be nice for the opera, but totally wrong for bars and clubs.

What about something like these?

Queenbean · 10/11/2015 18:09

Those sandals are terrible, so sorry OP! I will try and find some nice shoe/boots

Btw, I used to absolutely love Leigh jeans from topshop but have just discovered Joni and they are amazing for pulling in the muffin top m.topshop.com/h5/product?productId=21564856

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 10/11/2015 18:09

Love the top. Don't like the funny little heel on the shoes. There are some nice looking sparkly heels on the New Look site.

SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 18:10

LOVE the sandals twinkle - I want those but with a lower heel (am 6ft in socks so trying to avoid drag queen look).

Yes, silk T (mauve).

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 10/11/2015 18:12

Cute flats

Cute and sparkly but maybe a bit, 'Little girl at a party' on the wrong person?

SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 18:18

remus, you win. Have ordered the black flats.

Necklaces and bracelets are next on the list if anyone else is interested in making sure I don't go out looking like a knobber. I'm thinking ASOS/New Look prices.

WoodleyPixie · 10/11/2015 18:25

Love the black leather flats Remus linked to.

SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 18:26

Me too. Or these caged pointy metallic ballet flats

OP posts:
RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 10/11/2015 18:31

Ooh I like those silver flats too.

WoodleyPixie · 10/11/2015 18:32

Ummm both? Wink think I'd probably go for safe lack with black trousers though.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 10/11/2015 19:05

Necklace I love the look of this but must admit that my taste in jewellery can verge on the somewhat stupid.

Slightly more subtle

Love this but more expensive

I like this but might veer towards old lady at Butlins

SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 19:36

like this one too warehouse necklace

OP posts:
SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 19:37

Love the second one and the Coast one remus. Can totally do Old lady at Butlins non-chic Grin

OP posts:
RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 10/11/2015 19:48

I like that too. Would sit between my norks in a v unflattering manner but great on a flatter chest.

SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 20:14

Flat chest, I can do .

OP posts:
soupmaker · 10/11/2015 20:15

I love the multi tassel collar. That would look fab with the top.

You need a pop of colour though so get yourself a bright coloured clutch. I'd go for bright green or fushia pink.

SayAGreatBigThankyou · 10/11/2015 20:21

Awesome, have fuchsia pink (was going to go for gold sequins rip off AH Valorie from Accessorize).
