Aren't M&S clothes shite at the moment?

[BecauseImWorthIt]

Going to a party tomorrow. I have something to wear, but ended up with a couple of hours spare and decided to go and shop for something new. Nearest place with easy parking is a big M&S.

My God, how dreary are their clothes?! Shitey McShite of Shitesville.

Who buys all that stuff?

I was so disappointed not to be able to spend any money. I went round twice, in disbelief, convinced I must have missed all the nice stuff.

EPPM -

I did think twice about posting on S&B, it's not my normal habitat, but all my favourite people are on here!

(Love that skirt, Morris)

........although talk about nipples disturbingly erotic

Lenin - can we at least do your colours while you are here?

Describe eye colour, hair colour, skin tone. Brown or black etc.

Ooh - can you do my colours too?

Picture on profile

Eyes - sludgy blue/green/grey
Hair - increasingly blonde, as I dye to cover up the white
Skin - fair and freckly, (but not blue/white)

White/beige doesn't suit me, washes me out, so I think I'm better with warmer tones. Wedding dress was very, very, very pale pink for that very reason.

BIWI - I'd say you were a spring, but as I haven't met you in real life I'm not sure.

Shall I have a Mumsnet colour me beautiful drinks, colours and canapes evening at my house?

YES

(please)

Swedes last time we were all together on a thread you were getting us all analysed on the introvert/extrovert feeling/perception type-scale. Now you are doing our colours. Then all you will have to do is hack into the Tesco database of our Loyalty-tracked purchases and you will have a Total Image of each of us. Your power will know no end.

It would be weird if the introvert/extrovert feeling/perception results correlated with the colour ones.

Yes, I'm going to lure you all to my house, then file you all correctly in my Mumsnetter cellar Fritzl according to my new Myers Briggs Color Me Beutiful Dewey Universal Classification System.

And we will all look lovely and be happy there and shun our former freedom.

I bet the catering in the cellar will be bloody brilliant.

Yes please!

(I've forgotten my MB score)

Will come back to you all on possible dates.

Might it be better end of Aug/early sept, when everyone is back from their hols?

Or early August, before everyone goes on their hols?

I go on hols on 6 August and would love to be there!

Swedes, thanks for those links! All gorgeous.

I actually solved my problem by nipping into Next on my lunch hour and grabbing a simple black vest with adjustable straps for £6!! I am dead chuffed.

OOOH anybody in Edinburgh? Can you hear the thunder?

...you'd better run, you'd better take cover (80's dancing emoticon)

An oddly alluring cellar experience by the sounds of it
S+B is where I have my most comforting chats
It's like being snuggled into the bosom of some close girlfriends

What if you've got dyed hair though? Your face and your hair won't fit the right season profile.

Like how Michael Jacksons kids should have come out black regardless of how pale he scrubbed himself iyswim? What season would MJ be?

Holy crap! is biblical flood outside.
