Moving away from Meryl - what do you all think of these ?

I've been looking for some smart black trainers for a while, and these are really comfy. But I can't decide if they veer into (or are totally within, no veering needed) frump territory... I think it's the "designed for comfort" branding! I like that there is no visible branding on them, and the sole isn't totally white. But I'm really not sure about the zip and the general vibe. I also really like @Ella's skechers, (which do have some subtle branding and a white sole - so I'm obviously not that set on my preferred features) - but I'm not a total sheep Grin.

Any alternatives would need to be

I love the colour @laska and it really suits you. Definitely a keeper. I don't see that much difference between the two jumpers but you know how it feels. Both look good :) Which one are you going to keep?

Laska3Meryl · 09/11/2018 09:48

They are almost the same as the Geoxx Myria Not and cheaper. also not frumpy at all.. .. Id say go for them if they are comfy.. . Comfy is good with shoes .. Comfy is the best ! Grin

@Not. I think they look great. They are quite similar to the hush ones with the star. I love these. They keep popping up on my page. Actually the website is full of lovely trainers. [Don't look especially @Laska]

I love these

Laska3Meryl · 09/11/2018 09:52

So leather leggings came.

Beautiful quality. A bit of a wriggle to get them by my hips but there you are. They are lovely but £320 lovely? mmm.... I also have the fake next ones - coated leggings. They kind of do the job without the faf of worrying about the cleaning of them. They are beautiful thick leggings. I may just send them back and see if there is more of a discount but I don't remember there ever being unless 10% comes along.

Alwaysasparklymoment99 · 09/11/2018 10:13

Oh they are a wee bit long. They are slightly slower rise but nothing awful. They fit my tummy!!

Laska3Meryl · 09/11/2018 10:13

Oh.. they are Ge-or-Geous Always (youll be keeping those then Grin)
Are they comfortable?..

Alwaysasparklymoment99 · 09/11/2018 10:16

well I have the next coated leggings and do you really tell the difference? Will post a picture.

Alwaysasparklymoment99 · 09/11/2018 10:17

Next fake ones

Alwaysasparklymoment99 · 09/11/2018 10:18

Sorry about the dirty mirror as always

Is there enough of a diffence to justify the cost @Laska ?

Alwaysasparklymoment99 · 09/11/2018 10:19

There is no denying in the picture that the next ones are thinner and crease more. What do you think?

Laska3Meryl · 09/11/2018 10:44

Making me Enable Always. .....

So I havent seen the Hush ones, but i did take back the burgundy Next coated ones because of the creasing, ( and I felt that they were not very flattering on me).

The Hush leather look really fab and much better IMO and I am sure Soy would definitely approve.. I approve, and I would keep if it were me , I could afford them and they would fit in my lifestyle .. but yes its a lot of money..

Will they fit in with your life? Can you see at least a few occasions you would wear them ? Do you have the £? (there, that's not enabling Grin)

The only other consideration ( apart from the biggie of the £££) is cleaning.. I haven't had any experience with leather trousers.. Has anyone else ?

Oh @Alwaysasparklymoment99 the hush ones look AMAZING on you! 😍

Laska3Meryl · 09/11/2018 10:59

this looks like good cleaning advice

OP posts:
Alwaysasparklymoment99 · 09/11/2018 11:00

aaww thank you both of you. I think it will be a sponge clean for as long as possible. I dont like the wrinkling of the next ones - agreed. My brother gave me birthday money so i can afford them - sort of. Could have used the money for other things like xmas and feel a bit guilty.
I would wear them today, so they would totally fit in with my lifestyle. I wouldnt keep them for 'special days' They are for wearing imo.

Alwaysasparklymoment99 · 09/11/2018 11:01

A bit worried about that advice of tossing them in the dryer. That would make me panic! Not sure i could take the chance with the price of them.

Laska3Meryl · 09/11/2018 11:02

They are yours then, wear them to the supermarket this morning ,

..It is against the Law to use Birthday Money for Xmas! (unless in dire straights )

OP posts:
Alwaysasparklymoment99 · 09/11/2018 11:03

I'm thinking i'm going to hide the price tag on these [ if i keep]

Alwaysasparklymoment99 · 09/11/2018 11:03

ha ha ha ha......

Laska3Meryl · 09/11/2018 11:04

No Meryls for you then! Grin
