shut it lapin

Clarks village

Clerks village is where you go to get cut-price office workers.

You can get good shoes in Clarks Village, don't knock it. All you can get in Nairobi are Kikois and beaded sandals. Fine if you are a lentil weaver.

Thanks for you super kind offer as ever LG&T, but I fear those people at customs would snaffle any lovely purchase or charge me 1,200% duty.

right, i am looking for a summer wedding frock. i am apple shaped, size 14-16 (thanks to the apple plus have broad back and shoulders), d cup tits, prefer not to do upper arms (which aren't actually that bad but exposing them makes me do that Liz Hurley-never-put-them-right-down thing all day which is not conducive.) GREAT legs and ankles so nothing below the knee.

if i can't find something i just know i'm goiing to wear my old reliable green and violet leopard print DVF wrap with collar and cuffs (on the dress... ) but tbh i wouldn't mind something new. nothing fitted on waist (just above is fine) and nothing shifty. howzat?

Aitch - would something from here work - maybe the spotted one? Not sure if it would be too fitted around the waist though.

oooh, i rather like that in blue. i have green cat's eye glasses and a bob so i'd look suitably mental, which i like. think of me as channelling velma from scooby doo with red lippie.

lol - I like it. Thought from the description of the DvF dress you weren't a shrinking violet.

well what would be the point of that, i ask you?

come on ladies, we have our first hit. who can do better?

(and what jacket for that frock? i'd prefer no wraps as they're, well, so wrappy.) i like structure but don't want to have an argument with the frock underneath.

It's a difficult one to find - Wallis have a good selection of neutral short-ish jackets atm. Or maybe you need a coat - love the ones near the bottom of that page and the pink satin trench.

i'm looking at the dress again, really likinig it (on the point of ordering it) but do we think it's a wrap or a fake wrap? that might kill the deal for me.

I suspect an actual wrap, but I'm sure you could ring them and find out. By the way - they also do coats - might the middle one work? The right hand one's nice, but maybe not with norks.

why, what's the shudder for? i've never heard of them.

does everyone know something about this label that i don't? i'm not keen on anything other than that dress, it's a high % cotton and i think it could fit the bill. where do they sell? is it a high st thing that we don't have? [mystified]

lapin, that dress for me is a bit milquetoast, i'd just wear the DVF if i can't find anything i like, cos i do feel rather faaaaabulous in it.

er, help? my cousin's wedding is in august, i am single mom with v.little money and no idea what to wear!!!!!!!!!!!!!

those igigi things are fab btw, cali. never heard of them either. it's a wee journey into the unknown for me, all this. [harvey nicks sale icon]

'milquetoast'???????????

timid/unnassertive. you couldn't just have looked it up before posting those ten question marks?
