My make up artist who did my make up for my wedding on Saturday had these really nice trousers from primark (I don't normally shop there) so I went in a saw them......why didn't I get them there and then?

Cause now I can't find them on three different primarks and the do Leopard print version.

I'm so angry at myself

Not helpful, but when it comes to Primark, buy it NOW because it definitely won't be there tomorrow! You're better off buying it straight away because even if you don't like it, you can always return for a full refund.
Do you have a pic of the trousers by any chance and I'll check in my local store for you if you like?

Primark is terrible for this! Once something is gone they never seem to get any more stock.

Racheyg · 19/10/2018 18:53

These are similar. They just look so comfy.

Last year I saw a long coat (lightweight padded ) in the Marble Arch store. Didn't buy it and I didn't see it anywhere else.

This year , I saw them again , same store Hurrah tried it on, didn't suit me , didn't buy it.
Then later I thought "Actually I will buy it. It'll be useful"

I cannot bloody find it in the colour/size I need

It Isn't Meant To Be Wink

Oh they have tiny tiny 'pleats' . My DD has the black pair , I bought the khaki.
I wanted the leopard too .

(They are comfy BTW , just to rub it in)
Mine got a hole in them I think I caught them.

Racheyg · 19/10/2018 18:58

I've learnt my lesson. I will buy as soon as I see now.

I saw a all saints jacket in the sale went right down to £134.00 an absolute steal. Didn't get it then went to buy it sold out. 2 weeks later size 10
Back in stock with 1 left. Now that was meant to be Grin

I'll have a look in my local store over the weekend. Is it the plain black or the leopard ones you want OP, and what size?

Racheyg · 19/10/2018 21:13

hilda thanks that's amazing. I would love the leopard print ones. I'm going to Romford to see my sister tomorrow so may try that primark.

Fingers crossed x

I'll check tomorrow but don't get your hopes up too much as my local store isn't huge, but I'll try anyway Smile

Just in case you liked any other colours- found these on eBay. (Hope they’re the right style!)

@Racheyg, hi, I had a look today but no joy I'm afraid. All that was there was a couple of the plain black ones in 16 and 18

Racheyg · 20/10/2018 22:04

Thanks * for looking hilda* I found a black pair in size 12. Still desperate for leopard Grin

Will keep my fingers crossed :)

Oh I always do this, I think it's a combination (for me) of being a bit tight fisted and also I often have visions of myself looking great in something but then see it in person and lose my confidence I can pull it off so leave it.

I've actually seen similar trousers in quite a few places (albeit when the weather was warmer)- Google 'plisse culottes' OP, that's what they are, I'm sure some could be found? Good luck!
