Well disappointed with the collection. Decided to return the skirt. Just too £££ and wanted to see what SS19 had. Clearly very little atm. @laska, the alford boots ate lovely and nothing like pensioner boots😂😂

neveradullmoment99 · 15/01/2019 17:25

Are not ate!!

neveradullmoment99 · 15/01/2019 17:27

OMG those Peter pan boots are awful!! Maybe they will be a trend though???

neveradullmoment99 · 15/01/2019 17:27

Not on me😂😂😂😂😂

Yes never they’re even worse than white boots which are super fashionable at the mo yet I can’t get “Essex girl” out of my head every time I spot them in pics Hmm
Shame about the skirt but it was quite ££ even with the sale discount and if you weren’t 100% sure agree best to return.

dontcallmelen · 15/01/2019 18:19

Yy shame about the skirt, but it was very expensive & yy if you aren’t totally sold on it.

Oopsy .. bit worried about the side zip as they always cause me problems but I can send them back if no good

Laska2Meryls · 15/01/2019 18:31

You kept your Alfords then never? these may be to large on me but i've not seen any 38s comeback in , so thought I would give them a punt anyway , if they are narrow I would have to size up ..(finally got my refunds !)

Laska2Meryls · 15/01/2019 18:42

and yeah... he is quite pretty soy, not bad at all! .. I like a man in a white shirt..

FuzzyCustard · 15/01/2019 18:49

Please tell me, what are "pensioner boots"? worried now. I am of an age where I might well be wearing this sort of offending article and NOT KNOW.

SoyYo · 15/01/2019 18:49

Yes better to watch Banderas dance the Tango that watch bloody May’s closing speech to Parliament as I’m doing right now. Angry

SoyYo · 15/01/2019 18:56

@Fuzzy I went to google English granny shoes and OMG a lot of porn links for English grannies came up on google! 🤦🏻‍♀️ What the hell is [wrong with the human race? Shock
Observe the old dears with their zip up fleece lined comfy booties when you’re next out and about (safer) they tend to have little wedge man made soles too

GinandGingerBeer · 15/01/2019 18:58

Hello! Gosh, lots to catch up on, you've all been busy Smile
I've been away in the Lake District for a few days for my cousins 40th. Taking longer to recover from it than the few days I was there for Grin
Dry January it is not!
Not much floating my boat for SS19 but I've only had a quick look.
I like the Beatrice jumper but not the colours so much.
Will try and have a catch up later.

Laska2Meryls · 15/01/2019 18:59

FuzzyCustard · 15/01/2019 18:59

Laska2Meryls · 15/01/2019 19:06

Fuzzzy NO! they are fab! (see above)

dontcallmelen · 15/01/2019 19:07

My Nan had the tartan ones with little bobble ties at the front & when she went out had black boots with the furry lining, with a zip up the front & a small heel she was even smaller than me had eleven kids & ruled them with a rod of iron till the day she died.

dontcallmelen · 15/01/2019 19:08

Fuzzy no they are lovely nothing like my Nans😃

Talisin · 15/01/2019 19:14

I don’t know - you think you’ve sucessfully avoided the mum boot conundrum over the years and feel pretty chuffed with yourself. Only to be confronted with pensioner boots! There is no safety in footwear anymore.

Laska2Meryls · 15/01/2019 19:15

Here you are Pensioner boots - IMO anyway hopes to Gawd no one has any and gets offended , but you wouldnt Hushistas , I'm sure

Laska2Meryls · 15/01/2019 19:17

Talisin Oh No! What If I have been buying 'Mum boots' ? Examples please !

dontcallmelen · 15/01/2019 19:20

Talisin I live in fear of Mum Boots 😱
