lets talk clothes. Anyone got their eye on anything?

or stuff?

where IS everyone? S&B is DULL atm

Winser London cotton white wide leg trousers or silk if money is no object

Can't do linen. Those first Winser ones look spot on, thanks nim!

If anyone's still looking for white jeans, after ordering and sending back 5 pairs from elsewhere I recently ordered these from Joules and LOVE them. Not at all see through and got loads of compliments in them despite being a size 16 and large of knee.

Just taken a punt on these Toast carpenter jeans in their 'pre-sale sale'. I've been looking for a pair of high waist, wide leg jeans for a while so hoping these will work. Otherwise I may go to one of the vintage places and get some forties-style high waist jeans.

Yowsers I've just tried on the stripey top in niminy's Toast link in a 2nd hand shop! I hadn't realised it was this season and I'm now kicking myself for missing a bargain, even though I looked a bugger in it (too long and colour washed me out).

Nice jeans. Straight leg really are the most flattering shape around - well at least they are on me.

Can I join? 😀

I'm looking for slim (not skinny) ankle grazers in black or navy for summer office. Size 16 Apple if that helps?

Oh, and thank you to whoever posted about the Laredoute linen, I've been looking for linen vests for layering everywhere and just bought a few from there with 25% off today as well 👍

It's Friday

It's payday

It's the end of term

I am going on a massive online shopping spree when I get home

Not a bargain if it looked crap Flo. You wouldn't have worn it.

Enid you are of course absolutely right - thank you

And now you know which shop to look in again for more bargains.

Went to Marks tonight. Quick look. Tried on these flowery trews and surprisingly was very taken with them. I'm not a flowery, patterned trousers person. But I like 'em. Didn't buy - I'm not sure I like the 7/8 length. Size down at least one size. Nicer irl than the model pic. Didn't see much else there but I didn't have a lot of time.

Have just ordered these culottes. I like the fact that they don't look too wide. I won't be standing like the model, though.

Also, these tie-up sandals. I have a tan pair which are mega comfortable and get a lot of wear.

Flowery trews are a bit too challenging for me John - stripes are as far as I'll go!

I really like the culottes, Cointreau' I think just-above-the ankle length can be really flattering.

No links from me I'm afraid. I always save a fortune on clothes in the summer months.

Just bought a drapey cropped jersey jacket thing in a charity shop, for a grand total of £2.24. It looks like it could have come from All Saints, but is from New Look. I'm thinking/hoping it will look good with a cami and skinnies for casual nights out when too warm for a leather biker.

Ooh, I love a charity shop. They are my downfall. Jacket sounds nice, Remus.

on really hot days I never know what to wear out in the evening.
I dont do dresses
I like this look here but wonder about swapping the denim skirt media.getstyled.net/2015/08/sincerely-jules-3.jpg ( bit 'try hard cool mum') for a stretch skirt. maybe in white? - legs are GOOD

Have this sold out Marks top in black. www.marksandspencer.com/linen-blend-lace-trim-vest-top/p/p22446041?prevPage=plp

so it would be black top, tight short skirt to counteract drapey top
legs
and i have the predecessor to these in a dark grey slightly lower

Just bought a pair of shorts from sainsburys. Fit perfectly. Well chuffed. Then bought a ruched scoop neck dress from Boden with 25% off. Not sure as Boden stuff can be about hit and miss and I'm not their usual tall, skinny, flat-chested type

I like that look Jack.

I like denim mini skirts still. Not so fond of white. Depends on the rest of the look, I guess, and what you describe sounds nice.

it might verge on hooker. I will have to see

Depends on so many things:
legs
fake tan
hair
heel height
tits

Report back!

i am swarthy, I have hair AND tits ( inhales sharply)

So this finally arrived www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/clothing-427/dresses-442/long-sleeve-dress-by-glamorous-petites-5495419?bi=560&ps=20

but sadly has to go back. It is see through so while I like the length, colour and long sleeves, I'd describe it more as a beach cover up as a dress.

I'd really like one similar to this but better quality if anybody sees something similar?
