To make sure she was Taken Seriously and not pigeonholed as a flirty blonde with teeth (even though she was one)

sassy · 08/06/2009 17:09

Or perhaps she is a covert lesbian and it was sending signs to her signif other?

DrNortherner · 08/06/2009 17:10

If you think about it she never wore see through blouses or short, tight skirts either. Always safe trouser suits. I reckon cuse she is blonde and attractive she wants to be taken seriously so covers herself up.

rubyslippers · 08/06/2009 17:11

they made my teeth itch

it is just trying too hard

mrsmaidamess · 08/06/2009 17:12

Regina (off topic)I was shoe spotting on M&S and saw a pair I liked and you had written a review..quite a few reviews actually! You are quite the Barry Norman of Marks are you not?

Unicornvomit · 08/06/2009 17:13

why do all women who straighten their hair normally, or have it straight, feel the need to curl it for Special Occasions?

her teeth were extraordinary

ChippyMinton · 08/06/2009 17:17

She's not a natural blonde though, judging by pics of her as a child, on You're Fired, so I had to LOL when she said words to the effect of 'I'm not a dumb blonde'.

KingRolo · 08/06/2009 19:18

I found that tie very annoying too.

Doubt she's a covert lesbian with those comments about hating working in all female environments.

sazzerbear · 08/06/2009 19:20

Did you see her and Yasmina on the aftershow with their curly hair, you could tell was a special occasion Unicorn!

VinegarTits · 08/06/2009 19:22

thanks for the spolier in the title, i havent watched it yet, i sky +ed and was going to watch it tonight, no point now

sazzerbear · 08/06/2009 19:24

Its always risky watching it a day late!

CrushWithEyeliner · 08/06/2009 19:25

awfully tacky wasn't it? Awful sense of style that Woman

VinegarTits · 08/06/2009 19:28

why is it risky watching it a day late? ffs i have avoided any threads on it, and the op goes and puts it in the blardy title

MoreSpamThanGlam · 08/06/2009 19:29

I liked the tie and thought that Yasmina's dresses were too tight.

I thought her suits looked cheap though (Kates)

sazzerbear · 08/06/2009 19:32

Vinegar - My lighthearted point was that even with the best will in the world, you may stumble across the outcome - calm down dear!

Karam · 08/06/2009 19:33

why is it risky watching it a day late?

Cause it was mentioned four times on the radio this morning, Breakfast Tv, not to mention splashed all over the front page of the Daily Express. Having it in the title of a mumsnet post is the least of your worries!

VinegarTits · 08/06/2009 19:45

i have managed to avoid radio, tv and newspapers today thanks karam, some people are just thoughtless, op could have bitched about kate without putting 'the none winner' in the title

juicychops · 08/06/2009 20:07

i think women in ties looks good on some people. not in the same way as men, but more of a fashion statement. think they looked good on Kate

hf128219 · 08/06/2009 20:11

VinegarTits: How fgs can you avoid the media??

Ronaldinhio · 08/06/2009 21:10

felt she looked like she'd just walked out of Fat Sam's Speakeasy

kissmummy · 08/06/2009 22:00

i actually think she got away with it...just! suspect she'd look pretty good whatever she wore..but agree about the ghastly curled hair afterwards. are those teeth veneers or what?

ReginaCovington · 08/06/2009 22:29

oph fgs how can you NOT have seen who won...

SlartyBartFast · 08/06/2009 22:38

perhaps it was a double bluff

SlartyBartFast · 08/06/2009 22:38

and why wouldnt you want to know yet???????????/

MuffinToptheMule · 08/06/2009 22:51

The ties drove me mad, especially when she presented her chocolate. That tie was terrible!
