I think finally, at age 40 I have finally got the holy grail...A CAPSULE WARDROBE

[cyb]

No, I cant believe it either.

Everything goes with everything. I can have funky combinations, go from day to evening, dress up, dress down.

Add accessories, take 'em away. Gok Wan would be sooo proud.

I want to clothes peg it up.

thats what careful copious shopping and ruthless chucking out does for you

nah I wont I love it

all those FUNKY COMBINATIONS

cyb it sounds lovely. i do think current fashion is great too, am enjoying stripes and clogs and studs.

what are your silver glads?

WOE* are glads?

• What On earth. It's like WTF but for people who don't swear as much....

And it took me half the thread to work out that Cyb wasn't having some kind of Fight Clubesque conversation with herself!

New look, not online tho

i thought combinations meant that old fashioned underwear where you have your vest attached to your pants

but am impressed nonetheless

she has taken my identity

she wants to BE ME

sorry if you were confused!

Glads=gladiator sandals

I thank you....

And more amused than confused....

I love that dress cyb - hows the sizing?

its shorter than I would like really...but is really flattering on and true to size..i bought a 14 and it fits well

i wear over skinnies with a fitted jacket and heels

I tried it on only had a 14. It hung oddly under bust

thats cos your knockers are too big

no think it was too big
it didnt look exactly the same as that
i pounce don it thinkint " aha"

Cyb- I am in awe of you, and and and, Polly Vernon put that M&S dress in her style column this week.

I have those new look grey chinos that I rock with gold ballet flats and a breton top. Could I be a mini you??

I am diggin on your funky combos.

rocking AND digging?

I know, I am over excited!

yes

you may be a mini me

I don't like navy one bit and I don't like the nautical look much.

I'm out.

hurrah!

Have ordered the m&s dress - so knowing m&s it'll arrive after I go on holiday.

I wonder how many things that we link to get bought by millions of other mn'ers.

God I f'in hate Polly Vernon. I don't want anything that she likes.

Otherwise - well done Cyb!

I did have my eye on that dress already and it had NOTHING to do with the fact that cyb has it.

NOTHING!

who said anyhting about nautical?

there is not a gilt button ANYWHERE on my personage

navy does not =ships captain in my BIG BOOK OF fashion

the skirt bit was nice

I'm beyond jealous. My wardrobe is a fucking mess. I'm way too old for half the stuff, and way too young for the other half. I have some godawful skirts and some gopping dresses - it all has to go.
