I can't find what I want all the clothes are BORING

[Cappuccino]

i want exciting things in exciting fabrics

I want reds and lovely fabrics and nice cut

I look and look and I find beige and naturals and jeans and REALLY BORING SHIRTS

I have no desire to go all hippy but I do want something a bit dazzling and out of the ordinary

and I am Still Ill so cannot go looting round vintage places (also am hopeless at finding anything in them)

my life is going past and I am wearing black it has to stop

ooh that is nice

arf

I meant the first one

I do usually like Monsoon but my impression this year (got frm the shop window in the dark mind you) is a bit Middle Aged Lady At a Wedding

do like the tunics tho

mmj you got me. You have one on your score for cod's comp. I will write you a note to pass on to her if you require it.

BTW I do like the second tunic. Don't think red suits me though - am very pasty, so stick to odd touches of red - shoes or belt or bangle etc.

I look fab in red

I look ok in emerald green too

I am on a mission never again to buy a boring piece of clothing and blend into the background

I want fun websites

not young fun though god I am too old for trends

I wish to stagger twoards middle age in slightly-too-garish outfits

bit of colour? or a dress? or a cardigan?

green top?

Go for it, capp, I think you are right. Colour is much more interesting.

that dress is nice

don't have the arms for teh green one though

I want to look like one of those women who you think 'now where on earth do you buy stuff like that' about

but where on eart do you buy stuff like that?

Get your sewing machine out and make your own

oh I would love to MamaG but I am not very good at it

also I still barely have the energy to function - I'm just starting to do the school run again after 5 months off - I'm not sufficiently well enough to start new projects, I can barely get my kids to the library and back with another adult to help

I'd love to be able to sew. I can barely sew a button on though!

Good on you, re school run - well done sounds like its a helluva long slog luv, this recovery lark

it is

I want to talk to other mums but they are all standing up and I have to sit wanly on the edge of the sandpit

"check out coast sale for bright colourswww.coast-stores.com/fcp/categorylist/dept/sale?resetFilters=true"

also great plains does nice colours (and gets massively reduced in the sales)
"herewww.greatplains.co.uk/categoryList.aspx"

god am so bad at links what did i do wrong?

Uttam
or East

acesssories

they are the name of the game

MrsB I love some of that Uttam stuff

thanks

oh look cod is here to talk about wearing jewellery

what a surprise

Tell them to sit with you, on the sandpit! I would [bossy]

ooh thank you for all those links ladies. I feel I am about to spend some money...yipeee! (can always return them later if they don't suit!!)

I agree about some of the colours. I am looking for quite a boring shape dress - tunic (with little sleeves) but I do want some lovely colours and prints. I don't want navy or black and white.

MamaG they don't care about me

they have forgotten who I am
