lets talk clothes. Anyone got their eye on anything?

[JackandDiane]

or stuff?

where IS everyone? S&B is DULL atm

Love both those patterned skirts- wish we had an H&M near us.

You will look awesome in the new glasses Flo- and maybe the skirt will go in the sale and you can have both!

Thanks Tanaqui!
I may rope you into helping me choose frames though I warn you it'll be a long haul. Think Remus's sundress x a squillion.

Oooh - I forgot to mention that I might have found a possible sundress! Have discovered a local-ish Sainsbo's that does clothes. Now need to go and check it out. Red dress

I also like this top but I may be having a moment, & it could actually be hideous.

I like the dress Remus but oh that top...are you sure you weren't just lured in by the colour?

I like that top, Remus.

I just bought the pleated, full red skirt from Sainsbos (similar to the Marks orange one) in the sale at £15. Was just wondering if I could wear it with a yellow top. Maybe, but not that one!

The red sundress is nice irl, but they have a nicer one in yellow. It's pricier, though, at 35 quid.

Yellow, lace, stripes possibly too much. But it would have looked lovely on me as a size nothing 17 year old with a flat chest!

Tbh at those prices, I could have both red and yellow dresses if I like them. :) Especially if I stop thinking about the crazy top!

Hope the store you've found is a big one. You'll be spoilt for choice. And the sales are always good.

I have a cashmere boyfriend cardigan which cost me 9 quid!

You are making me sad- don't have a sainsbos with clothes either- and apparently I live in the greater London metropolitan area now!

Floisme, choosing glasses is evil- can you wear contacts to do it so you can see? Or take lots of pics from different angles. Tbf, I am so short sighted there are usually only a couple of frames that will fit my face and my mega lenses so that makes it easier!

I like the dress but agree with Ralph that the yellow one is even nicer if you suit it - assume that's a yes as you're eyeing up a yellow top!

Think I'll have to abstain on the top. I'd need to see it on.

The store is enormous.

It depends on what shade of yellow things are irl - can be good or dreadful.

Re glasses, I have a ridiculously small head and have to buy my frames in the teenage or children's sections. I try to avoid the Spongebob ones etc!

Tanaqui I have some very old contacts that I kept just for when choosing specs. But last time, I couldn't get them out - the optician had to help me so this time I may have to make do with photos and roping in everyone I can. Plus I have a very nice optician who lets me take frames away to try out at home (mind you I'm a very good customer!)

I actually love choosing new glasses. I always get really excited and think they're going to change my life although they never do!

Both banana republic dresses turned up today and both are keepers!!!

Navy lined cotton one looks like it will be great in the sun and i can wear a skin coloured bra under it with no obvious bra show.

Flowery one is just gorgeous for £60 with the code I had.

Now off to find some soft Blazers to wear with them and flat, comfortable shoes......

soft blazers = uniqlo

Thank you Jack. Uniqlo order done

I was about to post that! Ah well. Comfy shoes= couple of Greggs steak bakes.

I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE TAYBERT

I'm thinking I might get these.

LOVE the silver supergas.

Just bought the sainsbo's dress - fear it is the wrong red, but worth a shot.
I have also bought skater shoes.

Gorgeous sandals, Amber, really love those.

Sainsbo's broderie - recommend you size up - there's no stretch.

Flo - I just bought new glasses (£££). My primary objective is that no-one notices I've actually changed them, so they're nigh on identical to my old ones.

Jack do you intend to scour the North of England searching for a short arse in a ruched skirt to beat to death with her own Birkenstocks? Will there be a series of murders as innocent Boden wearing women get caught in the crossfire? I'm not even entirely sure why I've involved myself in the baked goods shoe debacle. I am not known for a comfortable shoe. The looming no heels wedding continues to give me palpitations. It would be a shame to die for a cause I don't even really believe in. Ah well, you win some you lose some.

Oh I'm the opposite Cointreau I'm always pissed off if no-one notices What kind did you get? I can't decide whether to go for cats eye again. I love the shape and it makes me feel like Sophia Loren but is it time to move on...?

Lovely shoes, Amber but I wouldn't even get down the stairs in them. I'm in Say's camp.

love 'em, own a similar pair

I really wanted there in grey but they are sold out:
