Corduroy

[Snog]

Will you be wearing corduroy this season?

I’ve dipped my toe in the water by buying some high waisted cord skinny Dahlia jeans from new look. I bought the black and have worn them quite a few times. I’m tempted to get them in burgundy.

Seen a lot of cropped wide leg cord trousers in the shops but this style doesnt suit me.

I don't think I ever stopped! But I only seem to wear it as dresses, haven't worn corduroy trousers for years because the knees wear out too quickly on my bike.

It collects too much dust and fluff!

I got some trousers from Gap. Not sure the full cord suit as seen in various mags is for me.

High waisted wide legged navy crops here. Of course I'm so short they are not actually cropped on me but I love the waist hip ratio they give me. I also really fancy a baker hat, much more my style than a woolly hat with a pom pom.

I have a dark green corduroy trench coat that has been hiding in the wardrobe for years. I’m debating digging it outz

Love cord. I bought wide leg crops from Cos in navy, then bought the identical green pair. I also have a navy dress from Warehouse from about four years ago which I wear every winter, and some brown cord mom jeans from last year.

Me! Me! I shall be - in fact I already have been. I bought a burnt orange corduroy suit from Zara last month and am eagerly awaiting their brown version to hit the shops. Apparently it's 'coming soon'. drums fingers

I agree with Olive that cropped trousers in cord can be hard to carry off unless you're startlingly long of limb.

I have bought a cord Pinafore dress and some cord dungarees too!

I have some burgundy cord skinny trousers I've never worn - they're lovely I've just never known how to style them.

I also have a few cord pinafore dresses, mainly for work though.

Green cord jacket, cord trousers and gold cord pinafore dress are all ready to be worn this season. Not together- obviously!

I've not stopped wearing cord. I love a corduroy shift dress over a jumper in autumn and winter.

I currently have a red needle cord pinafore, and a bottle green regular cord dress on my sewing table.

Navy wide leg cropped trousers and I’m loving them with trainers and hopefully boots when colder. Also navy midi skirt, haven’t worn that yet as debating shoes! Plus a cord jacket. I like it for a change, there are some great cord items around.

Yeah. No. Not a fan. Too geography teacher for me.

So clearly, I had to choke on my thoughts and I bought these from Massimo. I’ve short legs so they are with my friendly alterations woman and I shall wear them slightly cropped, with mid calf boots, with a bit of a heel. Contrary to Olive and Penny above, short legs or not, I like ‘em!

Of course I could be completely deluded. And look like a geography teacher of a bygone era in a very unflattering pair of cords

I ventured out last week in some chocolate brown corduroy jeans...very cosy they were too.

Oh yes, I love cord! Have cord skinnies, pinafore and want a cord blazer in an awesome colour too

TripTrap I have a brown cord blazer which is vintage, from the 70s I think. And a grey Laura Ashley one. I’d forgotten all about them.

Yes yes

Yup it picks up fluff
Pain to keep a fresh look.
I guess a tumble dryer would sort it.

Lol at Geography teacher look!

I have a pair of bottle green straight leg cords that I am wearing right now with a purple jumper and purple velvet trainers. They are originally M&S but I picked them up in a charity shop so dunno how old they are.

You need leather patches on the elbows of a jacket to get the geography teacher look

A couple of weeks ago I bought a forest green cord skirt which I've worn 2/3 times already and love - very soft and warm. Also tried some cord trousers but have hefty thighs and don't like the "swooshing" noise when I walk in them!

I'm really tempted by a cord dress if I can find one that at least sits mid thigh, being tall I find a lot of them flash my bum as I move
