I can't believe that we still haven't found one for you Franny!

I know that feeling of desperation though, I had it on Saturday when I could find nothing to wear to go out in that evening, as the day wore on I felt more and more panic stricken.

Psychedelic!

aitch's blue wallis dress looks 'fat' without a body anywhere near it

AitchTwoOh · 04/04/2007 23:16

there is just not enough printed polyester around these days, is there?

AitchTwoOh · 04/04/2007 23:16

it's a tunic, ffs. franny isn't fat, though, she's positively willowy.

Polyester, that much-maligned fabric.

NadineBaggott · 04/04/2007 23:18

yes and nearly every single one of em mingin'

AitchTwoOh · 04/04/2007 23:21

a lot of them were minging, i'd have to say. i think greeny is on fashion drugs.

hunkermunker · 04/04/2007 23:22

There's not one I'd wear on here.

I don't wear short skirts. I haven't nice legs

NadineBaggott · 04/04/2007 23:24

my ankles aren't bad but any further up is a disaster zone.

they're good for getting about though

AitchTwoOh · 04/04/2007 23:25

i have great legs, but i'm rather a cox's pippin round the middle.
