Hee hee just posted on other style thread about their advice for wrap tops for big boobs - just makes mine look even more enormous. Also major mistake in assuming that people care as much as they do, e.g am aware of wearing v ugly T-shirt today but don't really mind. My (single) friend would say that's because I have snagged dh and don't have to make an effort any more

black and colour wossat then?

Do they recommend one button jackets then? Make me look like a matron.

btw, is "norks" mn slang for breasts?

CD, Never Wear Colour With Black (trinny & Susannah's mantra)

well coddy I quite agree with them on black and colour you see...
however, dress over trousers is an abomination.
I think with big boobs you shouldn't do the button of the jacket up, and then you'd be fine?
saw a disgusting picture of Trinny wearing foul white lace dress the other day and wondered why she thought it looked flattering
they're both mad
although I watch their shows
and often agree with their choices

T&S also cannot do casual, they put everyone in "tailoring" (hate that word)

dress + trousers fine by me

US have a fabulous gay man/bitchy woman combo doing the same formula, and some of the people they make over are truly jawdropping as only yanks can be.
T & S are always right IMO except dresses over trousers, and even though I know they're right I am wearing cropped trousers.

T&S are my gurus

OK I was joking about Lawrence - I was!

Black and colour does look naff. Doesn't stop me wearing it though.

pruni isn't that navy and black?? (yuk)

snafu · 11/08/2005 18:31

Mmm, black and fuschia? Eeek!

But I have a lovely long black skirt that I often wear with a green vest top - broken up with a large leather belt though, sneaky - and it looks super.

Well, I think so [deluded emoticon]

sorry I meant navy and colour (eg pink, my worst nightmare)
