Is that a pouch - kangaroo style??

thegrowlygus · 08/08/2008 08:58

and only £125...

verylapsedrunner · 08/08/2008 08:58

Bizzare

midnightexpress · 08/08/2008 08:58

. I quite like it, though with a funky pair of trainers or flatties rather than those hideous shoes, and a different top. But the yellow get-up on the lhs is monstruous.

cremolafoam · 08/08/2008 08:59

so thats what they do with all the left over sweetie wrappers

midnightexpress · 08/08/2008 09:00

That's the one cremola - argh.

cremolafoam · 08/08/2008 09:01

lime flares
WTF?

turquoise · 08/08/2008 09:03

oh yes - and with the patent wedge natch.

i'm thinking a casual weekend in Venice look.

thegrowlygus · 08/08/2008 09:12

my eyes....my eyes...

How about this skirt with this jacket and for the finishing touch, this mac over the top (or maybe the pink version)?

annh · 08/08/2008 09:13

They are VILE! Is that representative of the whole collection?! On a slight tangent, does anyone else's M&S smell really bad? We have a huge one close to us (recently refurbed) and every time I step in there it smells like a mixture of wet wool, dry cleaning fluid and smelly socks!

midnightexpress · 08/08/2008 09:14

this season's It bag?

JackieNo · 08/08/2008 09:14

And look at this delightful skirt - it really is a load of charity shop scarves stitched together. and the strange ruffly top too.

wessexgirl · 08/08/2008 09:16

I am speechless with horror . Truly grim.

cremolafoam · 08/08/2008 09:17

jakieno nonono- its this skirt with that top obv!

JackieNo · 08/08/2008 09:17

Strange pattern, and I've never liked those shoe boots. ANd this is just plain nasty, imo.

cremolafoam - you're probably right.
How about M&S tries to do the Boden hotchpotch?

JackieNo · 08/08/2008 09:20

Bleeurgh (and the pic makes it look like a dress - must be a matching top somewhere).

JackieNo · 08/08/2008 09:21

SHe doesn't look any too happy about the whole experience, does she?

JackieNo · 08/08/2008 09:22

(and lol at the text on that hat one, 'featuring a large corsage at the side to give it that Per Una touch').

flowerybeanbag · 08/08/2008 09:23

I am confused. I am genuinely confused. Surely no one is buying this stuff year in year out? Why are they still doing it? Surely they can't possibly be making any money out of it?

PuppyMonkey · 08/08/2008 09:24

In the interest of balance, i would like to say i quite like this:
