Bear with me on this. When my son was in Reception, there was a girl who bullied all the other girls because they weren't wearing Dora the Explorer knickers. To her, the Dora knickers were the height of fashion and you weren't in her tribe if you weren't wearing them. Lots of little girls got very upset because they were wearing perfectly normal knickers from Mothercare or M&S, but this girl had styled herself as the arbiter of taste, her knicker style or the highway's knicker style. The Head got involved. Knickergate was over but it left people very uneasy.
Some of the people upthread behave like that girl. Those who want to wear Seasalt, or White Stuff are effectively, in their eyes, wearing the wrong knickers, meaning the ones who only believe in Dora, are prepared to throw out all sorts of ageist, abusive rubbish - you'll look 80, you'll look frumpy, you'll look like a pensioner. They then suggest places they find acceptable which aren't, to them, frumpy, or of pensionable age - Me+Em, Boden, Oliver Bonas, White Company, without realising - because I'm sure they are young and slim and so, so fashion conscious - that Oliver Bonas and White Company and Me+Em only go up to a size 18, and Boden does go up large, but fits small. They are also vastly more expensive than many of the Seasalt/White Stuff/Monsoon type pieces that average women can afford to wear every day.
I always think back, when I read these threads, to my mother saying that age old phrase 'if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all'. I look at some of the absolute shite people suggest as suitable for weddings, etc on here, and keep a zip on my mouth because it isn't to my taste, so I don't feel I should be part of the conversation. To me that's part of the sisterhood - you don't diss someone's taste if they like it and you don't call people names.
Being the Dora Explorer kid is just being a bully.
