Dp saw an emo kid wearing a t-shirt that said 'Kill your friends' and banged on all day about wanting it and wishing he'd asked the kid where it was from. I think mid-life crisis may be approaching.

we once had one in c ourt with beaver patrol on it
we knew if we challenged it that he would feign naivety

I wore a frumpy A line skirt today. But was just pottering (and squirting Flash) so no great loss

Themasterandmargaritas · 02/06/2010 20:19

Shorts?

Sounds pretty good to me super. Do people not normally cover their arses when they wear leggings?

I think I'll stick to jeans mostly I'll probably freeze in a dress or short skirt anyway.

Most people do cover their arses when they wear leggings- you would have to have one seriously cracking arse not to.

Coderooo · 02/06/2010 20:22

i like them
you know i am so struggling with wonky feet though, i am not even convinced i could wear those
i have bought "orthotic flip flops" !
they make my feet hurt
but can wear for short periods

cyb · 02/06/2010 20:25

she looks a lump in all the shots of her anyhoo

CoupleofKooks · 02/06/2010 20:26

they are nice linen trousers, honest
a little bit shiny, lovely flecked blue colour a bit like denim, nice wide leg
i know it's dull though but i had funky necklace on to try to save it

Coderooo · 02/06/2010 20:26

Nope the posh shorts out and about thing doesn't work for me. It's just too New England.

Shorts are for sailing, cycling, camping, grubbing around in the garden and trekking through the bush.

Along with a quality pith helmet.

CoupleofKooks · 02/06/2010 20:27

it's ok i mean i can still walk and so on
but nice shoes are right out i think
i have to just put up with amelie shoes and funky trainers
i bought some new ones to try from clarks, hold on

CoupleofKooks · 02/06/2010 20:29

the red ones are a lovely colour

cyb · 02/06/2010 20:30

I like those

a bit more smart than converse

Themasterandmargaritas · 02/06/2010 20:30

I like those Kooks

Poor old Lisa never looks happy in her shots, all she needs to do is put her shoulder's back and she'd lose a couple of kilos instantly.

CoupleofKooks · 02/06/2010 20:32

converse have truly become the mum uniform haven't they
and i used to think they were the most alternativest things ever

cyb · 02/06/2010 20:32

converse always ponk of rubber too

darkandstormy · 02/06/2010 20:36
