Spew.

No need to click any further.

I really really don't need any gilets thankyou.

I heart this thread

Joules and Toast prime candidates for a well earned roasting imo.

Having said that, I have a Joules gilet and I love it. It's cosy and leaves my arms free, v practical.

I think that almost all the clothes in catalogues like this look absolutely fine when worn by normal people, with other normal clothes.

They just look fecking hysterical when worn head to toe by 'modduls' and styled with yack-inducing copy about ponies and teapots.

This works the other way round of course if you were actually hoping to kid your neighbours that you are in fact minor aristocracy when your new jumper arrived, but they just shouted 'Morning Brenda!' over the fence as usual.

Now you see, with the Joules gilet, you definately need some "arm warmers" as sold by Toast - I cannot get over these!

geraldinetheluckygoat · 07/10/2009 15:58

LOL "Morning Brenda!"

This magazine already had these charming smiley models over 10 years ago and they really do not seem to ever get out of fashion! I do not think they have anything to envy to both Joules and Toast.

Competition now opened to find a caption for it!

pmsl at the blood on hands comment!!

That joules one looks like those women got drunk and went, "I know, let's take the piss out of those twee magazine spreads" I am sure the photographs afterwards involve the one sat down passing out face first in it all and the other drinking hidden wine out of the teapot!

CommonNortherner · 08/10/2009 13:10

Anyway, how is a "gilet" different to a body warmer?!?

geraldinetheluckygoat · 08/10/2009 14:38

Body warmer - for farmers
Gilet - For Ladies With Ponies

i think

DungeonButter · 09/10/2009 12:42

Farmers with ponies wear both at the same time, then complain about hot flushes.

lol - just waiting for cows to march over the teacups or the little dog to jump on them

that's funny, reminds me of when I was hungover and had a meeting with important client and poured out four cups of coffee when there were only the two of us.

nobody sane or sober pours out a million cups of tea!!!
