Fashion Anonymous Club - fishmonger alert

[Maireas]

Have you bought a white trilby, but ended up looking like a fishmonger? Have you purchased an outfit in forest green and been recommended a life in Sherwood Forest?
Those of us who have made many a fashion faux pas are offering a service. Run it by us first. Unless you have effortless style. We're here to help.

@ThinkWittyThoughts Columbo! oh god I hope not! I’ve wanted a proper trench coat for so long - I will look effortlessly chic

To be fair, the dresses in particular look shit not on a body. I think they’ll probably look nice from shoulder to waist and matronly frump from waist downwards as they’re ‘midi’ length which is too long for a shortarse like me really.

I also bought these shoes after my own thread last week

I'm not buying the daisy dungarees.
Now, what else can I buy instead, I need more clothes for the floordrobe whilst I live in my pj's.

I need this thread because I'm really tempted to buy an onesie, like one of those. In my head it's the perfect casual outfit that I can wear both for running errands, work zoom calls and lounging on the sofa.
In real life, there's no chance I won't look like I haven't changed out of my PJ's, is there?

@KatharinaRosalie sorry, but depressed Teletubby springs to mind.

I mean, I love a onesie - but not outside the house.

Hats are my nemesis. Tried a beanie on, looked like Avril Lavigne's mum. Tried a black sun hat on, looked like Matthew Hopkins, Witchfinder General.

"Depressed Teletubby"!!!
It kind of looks like a hoodie with legs. What do we think the arse would look like after a couple of wears??
I like those shoes MustardMitt!

Witchfinder General 😂 😂 😂
I do not look good in any hat, in any form.
I wear them anyway.

The onesi hoody is fine, obviously it needs to be worn with those paper shoe covers to complete the ‘scene of crime investigation officer’ look

scene of crime! 😂 😂

I'm reminded of Despicable Me “its a warm up suit!”

Depressed teletubbie is harsh! But fair

oh god yes that's exactly what I will look like, CSI

MustardMitt I sent away for a pair of very similar shoes from Clarks. They looked like those leather slippers that old men used to wear, so i'm afraid they went back along with 99% of my lockdown online purchases

I'm very glad to see this thread

It's exactly the kind of service MN should be offering.

I was scrolling through tops on eBay yesterday, spotting Boden & thinking Ooh! Bargain!

All the massive florals, bright prints and polka dots.

I am short, and matronly of nork.

Should I?

@MilesJuppIsMyBitch I think we need an EBay anonymous help group too . I’ve been browsing tops on there as well, I’ve seen some that are obviously from China , I know they will resemble a dish rag but I’m still tempted!

You need to show us.

Dare I ?

These cost £4.99 so they must be good quality, right ?

Purple, are you tall& slim?

That sort of top is great for tall, slim women because it billows and highlights all the space underneath it that isn’t being filled.

On me, it looks like an Army & Navy camp blanket, chucked over a huge pile (but short) of bulky equipment to keep dry.

I’m 5ft 8 size 12

Then go for it & post picks

Fantastic, we have the first FACAATB

Well, having fallen for their kind of thing myself (I need this thread), they are always shit. So, so shit.

Those bum flap onesies are just...

For the women with ibs or sudden anal sex urges I suppose they could be a godsend.

I have just ordered this , it’s going to look shit isn’t it? I’m going to look like the lead role in Joseph and the Technicolour Dream Coat as performed by the local amdram society, whose costume maker a) can’t sew and b) has an axe to grind because they wanted the part.
